[ When the NV turns on, Ella isn't really paying attention to it - though her intention might have been to use it, that thought is derailed by the chatter of several others nearby. ]

No - no no, I don't need - Excuse, me could you please stop pushing baskets at me, I don't want your brochures. Really, I appreciate it but - [ They are totally not listening. ]

No, thank you that's kind of you but could you just ... take... these -- but I - [ Yea, Ella, keep trying to talk over the company representatives. With a clatter, she drops the NV, and it now shows a crooked image of Ella with her arms full of baskets from AGI and SERO both, looking a bit lost, frustrated, and confused. Yet she perseveres! ]

I'm just trying to say - this is really too much so - oh! [ Aaand the bundle of baskets in her arms abruptly topple over when she loses her grip, tumbling onto the floor, papers scattering everywhere. Those representatives? Totally off to harass another newcomer. Help her? That's silly. ]

Could you h- oh, no, of course not, yeah, no walk away, that's just great... thanks. No, thank you,I've got it, not that you were lifting a finger to help or anything...

[ Sighing, Ella kneels to gather up what was foisted into her arms, though she catches sight of the NV recording. ]

... Is it always this...chaotic?

[ Maybe she can give this stuff to someone else. What she really needed was warmer clothing. ]

No, the chaos part pretty much settles unless you go out at night. Got it or need a hand?

[Voice]

[ella_of_frell]

Well that's good to know - I guess it's only like this when people arrive here, huh?
I think I've got it now though, thank you!

[Voice]

[moveslikestrider]

From what I can tell yeah. I moved out of there when I could. Heard some bad things about staying in that spot.

[Voice]

[ella_of_frell]

Bad things? I heard something about the place getting bombed -last year I think? Did something else happen?

[Voice]

[moveslikestrider]

That's the thing I heard about, the bombing. No clue if other things happened but, once bitten twice as shy.

[Voice]

[ella_of_frell]

Well, having no other option I'll have to take my chances right now. I'm sure it'll be fine.

At least so I hope.

[moveslikestrider]

Well, if you ever need a spot, I can talk to my landlord. He's a pretty chill guy.

[Voice]

[ella_of_frell]

Oh? That's pretty nice of you, thanks. What is the rent like?

[Voice]

[moveslikestrider]

I'd have to ask, my room is paid for, for about a year. It's a boarding house so eh, we'd share a kitchen. But the most thing I use a kitchen for is storing eggs, and apple juice.

[ella_of_frell]

Interesting diet. Let me know if you could? I'll give it some thought.

Are there a lot of people at the boarding house with you?

[Voice]

[moveslikestrider]

Just the only things I keep around. Mostly just eat on the go. I will.

Nah, just me and him.
