Arrival

Despite the size of the facility, there aren't many people to pull over. But the cavernous halls are only mostly deserted. Not far from the Agricultural Zone, a teenage girl dressed in black can be found running an errand.

A lot of what Ami does around Anchor from day to day falls under "Odd Jobs." At the moment, that means hauling a large plastic basket full of weird alien produce down from the A.Z. to the kitchen. It's significantly more loaded down than she meant it to be, though, and she's visibly having some trouble with it. In hindsight, a cart probably would have been a good idea, huh?

She struggles a few more steps before setting it heavily on the floor and stopping to catch her breath. One of these days, she thinks, she will have her telekinesis back, or maybe a video game inventory, and then this shit will be absolutely trivial.

That's when she notices a stranger approaching. She perks up immediately. Strangers are rare birds around here lately, so he earns her full attention just because he's unfamiliar.

... Or is he? Come to think of it, she might have seen him somewhere before. Back home, maybe? She isn't sure. It's kind of immaterial, though, since she wouldn't mention it to him either way.

"Oh! Hi there," she says, smiling brightly. It's been a while since she played Welcoming Committee, but it's an easy role to slip back into nonetheless.
