[Estelle arrives not long after, bowing when she sees them, but also noticing their posture...]

... I guess it's a little hard to get used to, after being in the hotel for so long. [The sunlight, that is.]

[guestservices]

It's different. I don't mind not being in the hotel, but this is...really, really bright. [but they do glance at her to assess her injuries to see if they can get a gauge on what she might need.]

[mustbepurged]

Sorry... maybe I should have picked a different place. [An apologetic look.

She notices them studying her, so she slips off a glove to show her healed-up fingers.]

Cetus did a really good job! The only wounds still left are the ones on my back.

[guestservices]

No, don't apologize. It's okay. I think a lot of you are probably happy this place exists. [but they lean forward to look at her fingers and there's a pleased nod.]

All of the healers are good at what they do. I'm glad they were able to help out. But if it's just the ones on the back...new bandages, right?

[mustbepurged]

Yes, that's right.

[guestservices]

Okay. [a little swirl of shadow appears over their hand, and soon they hold out a bundle of bandages. it's enough to help with the wounds on her back and much sturdier than her makeshift ones.]

That should do it. I hope.

[mustbepurged]

[She takes it, and nods happily.]

It's just what I was hoping for.

What would you like me to do in exchange?

[guestservices]

You seem pretty sociable. [thank you, aquarius.] ...find two people who you think should talk to each other more. And tell them why you think they should. Introduce them to each other and explain your reasoning.

[mustbepurged]

Two people who should talk to each other more... hmm...

[She gazes up at the bright sky, thinking very hard about this.]

Okay... I'll try to come up with something!

[guestservices]

You'll do great. I think it'll be very easy for you. [they seem kind of sure of this? it's fine.]

[mustbepurged]

Really? [She laughs, a little nervously.] Well... I appreciate your confidence!

[guestservices]

Sure. [they tilt their head though.] You aren't as confident in yourself?

[mustbepurged]

Not really...

[guestservices]

Can I ask why not?

[mustbepurged]

I... well...

... I know that I've lived a sheltered life... and I'm not especially strong, or clever, or experienced in most things...

[guestservices]

[there's a tilt of their head.]

Do you think you need to be any of those things to be a kind person, Estelle?

[mustbepurged]

Well, no...

[guestservices]

Then I wouldn't worry about how much of any of those things you really are. The rest will be enough.
