[invisibilitea]

[Annie is just walking down the hall, innocently, trying not to think about the barrage of memories but-

Then she hears the girl, and turns over to look at her.]

I'm...I'm sorry? Are you speaking to me?

( action. )

[overthought]

[she just looks up, a little shocked that there was someone around.

right, not in the ship's systems anymore - not that she can have her audio audible when she wanted to. ]

Oh no, I'm really sorry. I didn't think I saw you there.

( action. )

[invisibilitea]

I-

No, that's all right. Hullo, I'm Annie.

[Didn't see you - that's so usual for her she doesn't even consider that it might be-

Well.]

( action. )

[overthought]

Hello Annie, I'm - [give her a second to try and scoot herself up on the wall.

why isn't she used to this yet?]

Cortana. [she offers a tattooed hand to her.]

[Annie looks down at the offered hand, she hates this part-]

Ah, it's not that I don't want to, it's I can't, see, I've a skin rash, medical says it may be contagious....

[That's a terrible lie]

[overthought]

[she tilts her head curiously before retracting her hand. maybe it's the fact that she's blue that might make her cautious, or she actually has a rash.

either way, she understands if she doesn't want to be touched. ]

Thanks for the warning, at least. [oh wait, that didn't come out right-]

Not that I'm suggesting that you might need to warn me or that it warrants it.

[invisibilitea]

[She feels terrible]

But I could make tea for you! If you like.

[overthought]

I've never actually had tea. [finally, a positive first.] I would love a cup.

[invisibilitea]

Never?

Why never?

[A GASP]

What terrible place are you from?

[overthought]

The future, I suppose? Not this future, considering where we are, but one similar to it. 2557.

[also, she's dead. so there's that.]

I just never had time to.

[invisibilitea]

The future is a terrible place if there's no tea.

[overthought]

There was a very, very long war. I don't think we ever had the time to actually sit down and have a cup of tea in the middle of it all.

[invisibilitea]

[Annie shakes her head]

There is always time for a cup of tea.

[overthought]

[she wants to point out that it was all out genocide against the human race, but she'll settle with an uncomfortable smile before holding her hands up in surrender.]

Alright, alright, I give in. There's no time like the present to fix that mistake, isn't there?

[invisibilitea]

[There is always time for tea.]

Up to the kitchen, then.

[overthought]

Right. To the kitchen. [walking to the kitchen. that's. a thing.]

[invisibilitea]

[Annie is leading the way!]

[overthought]

[it's a little harder for cortana. in fact she stumbles around after her, trying to keep up.]
