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.

...Y'think so?

[ just a pause there for a moment. in a way, she'd gotten lucky too, when she first arrived -- running into neku like that. ]

Well, some people DO give up way too easily.

[vaccination]

The chances are pretty slim, if there's a billion other worlds out there.

voice;

[grooves]

Yeah... but I think most people are used to those odds by now. In your case, it was worth it, wasn't it?

voice;

[vaccination]

Definitely. Definitely times two.

voice;

[grooves]

Two? [ it takes her a moment to realize what that means, but there's a small laugh. ] Waaay lucky.

I'm Shiki, by the way... how 'bout you?

voice;

[vaccination]

Yeah. Way, way lucky.

I'm Ellie.

voice;

[grooves]

Nice to meet you, Ellie...

Did you get to move in with them, too?

voice;

[vaccination]

Yeah. We ended up finding a place outside of the assigned housing. It's pretty cool.

voice;

[grooves]

That's great! [She definitely sounds a bit calmer now than when her feed began earlier.]

Heh, I'm sorry about those comics, though... I don't know a whole lot about them myself, but you might be able to find some new ones in the library, when you have the time.

voice;

[vaccination]

I can do without if I have to, but... it'd be nice if they had some.

voice;

[grooves]

Even if they don't, something else might catch your interest. What kind of stuff do you like?

voice;

[vaccination]

I like reading in general, I guess.

voice;

[grooves]

Yeah... me, too, but I think it depends on my mood. Usually I fall back on lighthearted stuff like romances, but sometimes I look for something more exciting.

voice;

[vaccination]

Romance? Seriously? That's not really my thing. I always go for the exciting. Murder mysteries, action, stuff like that.
