[Today, Amy seems to be lounging in someone's office rather than the stone walls of her church home, or the playground she usually stays at.]

It occurs to me that yet another year has passed since I had arrived here... that makes it two. I wonder how old I am now. I can't quite keep track of it without a proper birthday to call my own.

[She pulls out a piece of paper from a bag and peers at it before looking back at the NV.]

I won voice and piano lessons at the silent auction some time ago... would anyone know who Blaine Anderson is?

That's a long time, Amy. How are you doing otherwise?

voice;

[graceful_cutter]

Miss Re-l... I have been alright. I almost got trapped in my own home when the pipes froze over, but Monsieur Dante came to take me out. I'm still here in his office, but I believe the church should be habitable again.

[awakenings]

I'm glad he was able to give you a hand. You can stay in my apartment for a little while if you want. You could probably use something to eat and someplace warm to sleep.

[And her birthday...]

...And then maybe we can get you a visit with your father.

voice;

[graceful_cutter]

Alright. I will be over once I've taken my leave from M. Dante. Will I get to see father within the day?

voice;

[awakenings]

Sure. I can take you right there once you come over, if you'd like.

voice;

[graceful_cutter]

I would like that, yes. [Somehow, despite how usually dry she sounds, she seems to perk up at Re-l's offer.]

voice;

[awakenings]

Then we'll do that. I'll call down to the station and make sure everything's good to go for you.

voice;

[graceful_cutter]

Thank you, mademoiselle.

voice;

[awakenings]

It's no problem.

[There's a thoughtful pause.]

Maybe we can figure out a good date for your birthday, too, so you can celebrate it from now on.

voice;

[graceful_cutter]

I would... that would be very appreciated, mademoiselle. [The pause in Amy's words is rather full of emotion. She's glad that someone cares enough to help her figure out a day to call her own.]
