[ The feed pops on to show a redhead with a smile on her face as if she's not really sure why she's playing along with people on drugs or something, but is doing it anyway. Sort of amused and wtf at the same time. ]

This is really cute. Sort of like giant Disney World. [ Her smile widens a bit like she's enjoying her own joke. ]

So. The "in between of life, dreaming, and death," is it? Really hope I'm in the life part, death isn't really my thing and I was in the middle of doing something so I hope I'm not dreaming. Do we get a ticket or something here? "Welcome to the In Between, guest number seventy-five! You're part of the Alive Group, have a great stay." [ Clearly joking; funny voice, air quotes, and all. And a tiny bit of an eye roll. She obviously thinks this is ridiculous. ]

I'm Fringe Agent Olivia Dunham so I'm not completely... unfamiliar with this sort of thing. If you don't have Fringe Division here, or don't know you do, we deal with events which are out of the ordinary. I'd say this counts. Of course I don't have a solution for this particular problem, but at least I'm not going to fly into hysterics. [ Actually, the thought of her in hysterics is funny. Olivia gives a small snort of laughter and seems to be about to end her feed when a thought comes up and she visibly straightens and lights up with the question. ]

If this is an alternate universe, do you have coffee? I'll drink almost anything, but I have a Starbucks rewards card.

[ Oh Astrid. Astrid. Olivia does her best to put a work appropriate smile on. Proper and not too cheeky. ]

It's good to see you too, Agent Farnsworth.

[ THEN NOPE. She breaks out in a grin. She can't help it, Astrid is too precious. Somehow manages to bring the grin slightly under control. ]

Thank you for the information. You are, as always, the most helpful person around.

[ It's okay, Olivia, Astrid was straight up unprofessional when Captain Lee turned up. ...Well, for Astrid, anyway.

She may have smiled. ]

Thank you, Agent Dunham. [ she hesitates, then continues at a somewhat "just blurt it out" pace ] I hope that you are doing well and did not suffer any discomfort in your arrival what sector is your suite in?

[ Astrid: Not used to asking about... personal. things. With her team, anyway. Hey, she's working on it! ]

[ Okay, she can't deal with this any longer. Dropping all pretenses of professionalism. ]

I'm good! Sorry it took me so long to show up. I'm in the Fire Sector. [ She says it in a "isn't that so cool" tone of voice with a bit of a nose wrinkle and a flash of grin. ] 2B, specifically.

I am in Earth Sector, 2C. It is very comfortable.

...And there is coffee here. It is very good.

[ To be fair, she'd probably say the crappiest instant coffee was good, but she just isn't picky. ]

[ Earth... She'll have to learn the best route to get there. Maybe she can make her morning exercise a run between all their apartments. ]

Good coffee? That's what I like to hear!
