Arright, my outlet converter has gone missing. Might've fallen out on the ride from the airport.

How am I supposed to charge my mobile now? I rather need it if I'm going to start looking for a new ... everything.

[there's a pause as the fresh face takes a deeeeep breath and exhales slowly, before smiling]

Right, I'm sorry, that's the absolute wrong way to go about introductions, isn't it? Hullo, my name's Ellie, and I just started getting these ... other memory things. I still feel daft saying it. But I don't suppose any of you have any advice for someone needing a flat here in the city? Apartment. You call them apartments here. I bake. I cook. I'll pay you in food. I'll walk your dogs. I don't know. I'll something.

[that earns a gale of giggles, and Ellie claps her hands a little, utterly chuffed by Lisa's sense of humor]

No, no - please, don't double back on me. Even a little familiar is better than what I'm working with ... and besides, we can discover the new bits together that way, right? All else fails, we've got Google.

You're not wrong. Google fixes a lot of holes in knowledge, memory, and ways to spend money. So that'd still work, then! I need to take more breaks anyway. It's always work, work, work! [A pause.] Well, except when I end up off the deep end with something going wrong here, or when someone drags me away.

... Things go wrong a lot here, then? [that feels like quite a red flag to her, and her smile slips a notch]

Not that often, no, but I’m kind of sensitive sometimes. And a little bit of a worrier. I don’t... really have the same support structure my memories have gotten me used to. Stuff does go wrong sometimes, though - we’re not entirely sure why, not even the Bureau. Don’t worry too much, but keep your eyes open, yeah?
