Hello..?
[Have yourself a twelve year old girl testing the water on the shiny new thing and mumbling to herself a little as she does.]
...I hope I'm doing this right.
[Oh right. The people can hear her. Sarah takes a deep breath and gets to talking.]
I uh, gotta say, this is some real crazy stuff going on. I don't even know where to start makin' sense of any of it. The Kedan people, the ones that work here? I think they work here. Live here? I dunno. They explained a lot of stuff but I'm still trying to wrap my head around even being here.
[Sarah pauses. When she speaks again it's with a little less certainty.]
Do they ever make mistakes with who they bring here? I'm not sure I'm the monster fighting type.
[Not real ones anyway.]

I guess I didn't think about it like that.
[It's definitely an interesting perspective. Sarah holds out her arms to better show herself though.]
Physically though, I dunno if I'm any good for it. I'm fast and tough, I think, but I've never fought anything before. It sounds scary.

When it stops being scary, something's gone wrong. Fear isn't a reason to rule anything out.
video;
...Where'd you come from?
[There's just something in her manner that makes her want to ask, and even then her words are a little hushed.]
video;
[ She'd been about this kid's age when she'd left home, maybe younger. It's hard to tell. ]
But it was a world filled with monsters.
video;
Was? Does that mean they're gone now?
video;
I won't be able to return there, I know that.
video;
...Why not?

[She looks a little sheepish.]
Sorry. I didn't mean to pry or nothin'.

[A pause and a shrug.]
I dunno. I'll work somethin' out. Maybe learning how to fight isn't such a bad idea. If there's something else I could do though, I'll probably do that first.
Maybe the clinic like you said. ...What are you gonna do?
video;
[ Even though she'd been giving that advice so easily, she hasn't thought this through yet. ]
Something where no one has to get hurt, maybe. There's a woman named Bianca at the clinic. She's kind. If nothing else, I don't think she'll let you go hungry.
video;
People not gettin' hurt is good. Helping them get better is too.
We could go together? I-if the clinic is something you're interested in. Though, sounds like you've already checked it out a lot.
video;
video;
Guess I'll keep that in mind when I'm in the market too.
[She's kidding. Mostly.]
video;
video;
[She likes you, Annie.]
I'm Sarah.
video;
Hey, if you run into monsters, make noise about it. There's always someone out there that knows how to fight them.
[ That she's talking more about the kind of monsters humans might not be entirely clear nor is the fact that it's an offer from her, but it's the closes she gets to something like that. ]
video;
Yeah, I will. Promise.
