4th Floor

[Kanaya had carried her sewing machine to the 4th floor to get some work done and to get her mind off of things. It's been a while since she let herself just sit and sew, take her mind off of things.]

[She threads her needle and readies her black fabric, the familiar action was calming and even though she had no particular plan in mind, she began]

[Until the needle snapped]

How unfortunate. It seems there is no relaxing here.


7th Floor

[It wasn't outside but it would do. The forest the floor below had set of an instinctual mental warning, a forest in a building was wrong and asking for troubles. While the pool wasn't much better, it seemed a tad safer.]

[Not that she was worried about her life. If she were to die, she died but prolonging her life may prove advantageous for others in the future]

[For now she took off her flats, placing them neatly by her side, pulled up her skirt a bit, and dipped her feet into the water.]

[In retrospect, she should have brought a book]

Comments

[fifty]

Well I guess alien doesn't mean much here. What're you doing?

[she motions to the sewing machine]

Sewing, although I'm not making anything in particular. Do you require anything? [she pauses] I would need to acquire another needle.

[fifty]

Not really, I guess, but I could help you look.

[He's kind of subdued, not that Kanaya would know that wasn't normal.]

[To her knowledge America is kind and calm. And she has no problem with that. In fact, she prefers it!]

[Poor Kanaya, she doesn't even know]

I re-purposed a needle form the medical ward but as you can see it proved to be an unsuccessful venture. Do you have another idea?

[fifty]

Well, you could ask for a needle, maybe someone had it in their trunk. Or maybe ask someone who works in the infirmary if they have thicker needles.

I would appreciate a sewing needle above a medical needle as I was using. It was difficult to make an incision on a needle to make it sewing-capable. I assume you do not have needles in your possession?

[fifty]

Nah, I didn't really do much sewing at home. I'd just buy new stuff.

This may be rude of me, and I am aware this is our first meeting, but is something the matter?

[fifty]

Huh? [He puts on a smile that might seem a touch forced.] No way, there's nothing wrong. I mean, aside from this place and the whole destroyed world thing.

Ah yes, our situation is quite troubling, enough to warrant excessive worrying.
