I don't know who you are, or what you think you're pulling. This letter you gave me? Bullshit.

I want some real answers and I want them now. Start talking or I'll start bashing heads.

[Stomping around the lobby is a woman who looks extremely pissed off. The letter everyone receives when they arrive is crumpled up in her fist, a fist that is being waved in the faces of various strangers as she threatens them. Feel free to approach her and get yelled at.]

[Dolphin arrives on the scene, noting the woman exclaiming profanity as the woman who was treating to "bash heads" if not placated. Dolphin approaches, carrying a large dictionary under one arm--heaviest thing she could find that wouldn't get her in trouble with her boss--a little frantic.]

Excuse me!
tempesting: (alert ۩ honey you okay?)

[Dolphin comes to a halt a few feet away from Artemis. She puts her hands up in a sign of peace, hoping that the woman does not attack.]

My name is Dolphin. I'm a secretary here at Garden, a mercenary school. You are obviously very upset and I would like to help you with whatever you need. [And prevent you from bashing heads together, too.]
tempesting: (seeing ۩ something wrong?)

[Well she's not throwing punches. That's good.]

To put it simply? Time Compression.
tempesting: (caught ۩ what is it?)

[Oh yay! The lady doesn't look like she wants to throttle Dolphin, so Dol takes that as a sign of improvement.]

None of the off-worlders in Garden are here by choice. Like you and me and everyone else, we were pulled here by Time Compression. Something that Garden can't control, but tries to offer some stability so we can stand on our feet until Time Compression pulls us back home.
tempesting: (speaking ۩ it's so unusual)

It's true! People come and go and have no choice. Time Compression just...happens!

[She makes a nervous smile.]

When I first got here a couple days ago, I asked for some employee opportunities instead of becoming a student. That's how I got my secretary job.
tempesting: (question ۩ for me?)

It's not...too bad? We get to have rooms and food and be in numerous activities...
tempesting: (content ۩ everything is okay)

Pretty sure.

[She bites her lower lip.]

Maybe you can ask one of the SeeDs.
tempesting: (grim ۩ forlorn)

I'm very sorry, ma'am. I'd much rather be home, as well with my husband and baby boy.
tempesting: (pleased ۩ yes mommy sees you)

[Dolphin smiles softly.]

If you'd like, we can go get some pastries and coffee and talk about the academy and what you could do here.
