Bullshit is showing up here with everything on me but my comic books. All those Savage Starlight issues, gone. Just like that. Fuck you too, Initiative.
[A pause. Ellie's never really addressed a group of people. Technology is crazy. Okay, there was a point to this whole thing.]
... anyway, guess I just wanted to say thanks to the people that helped me out when I got here. I found who I was looking for, so. Didn't wanna leave anyone with a cliffhanger.

( Don't be a snob, El.
She's totally a snob. Comic books are dumb. )
Yeah. Being inquisitive, nosey and that. Stickybeak. We can get you sorted with an Australian to English Dictionary about the same time.
no subject
Australia? That's where that accent is from? Never heard one before.
no subject
( No, but actually she loves the Kiwis. Making fun of them is just like a part of life before the war.
Although, she's been here long enough to ask, )
Are you from Earth?
no subject
To be fair, I have no goddamn clue where New Zealand is. Not exactly the first place to come to mind.
[Australia is just somewhere... that way. Ellie skipped class a lot.]
no subject
( Is that the dulcet tones of judgment she can hear?
Yes.
Although, Ellie groans after a second, because this place is really fucked. She wants to make some dickhead comment, but -- and maybe the Other Ellie can tell she's got a hand against her face. ) Is your world buggered over or are your school systems just shit?
no subject
[Ellie's getting used to these sort of reactions. Whatever.]
So yeah, seriously.
no subject
( Well. ) Sorry.
( A drawn out pause. ) Mine too, I guess.
( Solidarity, or something. ) Hey, I'm Ellie. ( Just, you know. Since they've mentioned their worlds sucking, maybe names are in order. )
no subject
I'm Ellie, too. Kinda weird.
Oh--I think you know that Jesse guy, right? He mentioned you when I got here.
no subject
( And, for a second, there's an audible smile in her voice. ) Yeah, I know Jesse. First person I met here, actually. You can just keep going back and getting more bikkies, you know? I reckon I lived off those for a solid week.
no subject
He's alright. And I'm hoping bikkies are cookies? I ate so many my stomach hurt, so I figured out that real fast.
[Once she was able to sit and rest, after finding Joel and getting them some medical attention. Then her stomach decided she stuffed one too many cookies down her throat upon arrival.
No regrets, though. Cookies are fucking awesome.]
no subject
( A scoff that's actually a laugh. ) More like "cookies" are bikkies. ( She's pretty facetious, actually. )
Yeah, right? Really good, but. The sugar and endorphins took some of the edge off turning up in this place. ( it's obvious from her tone that she isn't being flippant, that it was still a big deal, but-- it did help. Jesse helps. )
no subject
He might've mentioned an assault rifle.
[Jesse's alright in Ellie's books, which is a decent accomplishment given the last year's adventures. The chocolate probably helped, but his lack of sugar-coating is the main thing she likes about him.]
no subject
( Australia.
And an exasperated sigh. ) You walk around with a rifle for a bit and suddenly everyone's up in arms about it. It's not like we're in a bloody warzone and everyone has weapons.
( she may have menaced a few people
like her former roommate, for example )
no subject
[She's mostly amused, even if she does think it's weird. Australians...]
No, I get it. Especially if you come from a shitty place. I was prepared to stab my way out.
[And maybe she still is.]
no subject
( She's heard about this "biscuit" abomination from Stephanie. ) No, not like-- I dunno, that sounds like a savoury scone, or something. Biscuits is the proper name for cookies.
( Somehow, she finds it comforting to have stupid arguments in the midst of all this.
Ah, stabbing. A skill more acquired here than at home, but home required fire and bullets more than being that close. )
How you feeling about stabbing people right now? ( Still friendly, just... curious. Cautious. )
no subject
I could do this all day, you know.
[Let's not talk about the quality of the biscuits she occasionally got at school, either. They might have been rocks disguised as food.]
I haven't found a reason to, so. [But she's never without her knife. Just in case.]
no subject
( A beat, and yep, she's grinning. ) What, you think I can't? I've been at this longer than you.
( It's somewhere between how an older kid would talk to someone being a brat on the school bus, and something more conspiratorial. )
Just wait. You don't wanna show all your cards too soon.
no subject
[Maybe this is what Tess was talking about. Things being like how they were before. Talking to people about random, unimportant crap.]
Don't worry. I haven't.
no subject
( SHE COULD TELL YOU A TALE...
but she won't. Maybe later. )
Good. ( Although-- ) How old are you, anyway?
