[Though she typically prefers video communication, Bulla deliberately selects voice. It's difficult to tell whether she sounds a little off because she's tired, depressed, or sick, but she's definitely not her usual upbeat and sociable self.]

Hi, everyone. I could use some suggestions for a distraction or three. Preferably something where you don't have to move around much.

[Truthfully, she's tired, depressed, and not feeling well, though it's due to an injury rather than illness. Her mother has vanished from Luceti, and she's recovering from the worst injury she's ever had in her life courtesy of a cultist.]

...and if you're suggesting reading, please suggest a specific book, because I've already read everything I have here in the house.

[And Quinn shudders, too, this guy sounds like something out of Sick Sad World!]

Sorry you had to deal with him in the first place, though!

I've been all right. But I'll no longer take this day and age for granted, women back then worried too much about being seen as "good girls". I mean, yeah, tramping around with boys is a bad idea, but there's other things to worry about than your reputation! Diseases, pregnancy, the fact that too many of them can't be trusted for anything!

Oh, no, nothing like that! I was just thinking of the boys back home...I've never had that happen, of course, but my friend Stacy's gotten her heart stepped on more times than any of us can count!

Ooh, only one time...you're lucky, then. Sorry it happened, though, he must have been a jerk!

[She deliberately chose not to mention a certain tutor of hers. Knowing it happened is humiliating and painful enough, but she doesn't want her friend to feel bad for her, especially when she's in such a bad state.]

Yeah. At first we thought it was her fault because she doesn't always wear the right clothes and says embarrassing things...Sandi still does. But honestly, most guys do way worse than wearing the wrong shoes or mentioning their pruny hands! I once dated a boy who wore a nacho-stained t-shirt and wouldn't stop talking about his burping contests with his friends. [Ewww. And then he had the gall to wonder why she said no to a second date!]

Oh, dear...that had to be awkward. Why would he cheat, anyway?

It was. I'd rather have a guy talk my ear off about football or cars than wear stained clothing! Even if I don't care about football and I just want a car to drive places in, not go under the hood!

Oh, really? That's pretty neat! I've never known anyone who makes things like that...my mother's a lawyer, and my dad is...um, between jobs at the moment. [Poor guy can't hold much of one down thanks to his, um, issues.]

Wow...your family sounds amazing. My family's kind of blah in comparison...but I guess not? I mean, Daria is a genius and she's gotten into some pretty weird adventures. [She doesn't want to be jealous, that's the old Quinn...but still.] And I guess Mom's a damn good lawyer if she hardly ever has time to make real dinners.

Hahaha! She might enjoy that, actually. Daria's not too good with meeting new people but if she has something in common with them they might hit it off!

[Action] Hahahaha!

Oh? Hmm...I've never thought of self-defense moves before. [Back home, Sandi would never approve of Fashion Club members doing sports or anything like it. But Sandi's not here.] But they sound like they'd come in handy.

I haven't been drafted yet, but my math teacher always used to talk about probability. I don't remember what she said but I know my luck can't hold out forever. So yeah...training sounds like a good idea. [After knowing what Bulla went through, a broken nail isn't such a big deal.]

Thanks, Bulla. I don't want to be caught unprepared if they ever pick me...it'd be like English class all over again.

Ahaha, well...maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but I was a terrible student in my first year of high school. So it kind of felt like it.

Ugh, science! I faked cramps to get out of dissecting a frog once...at the time I just didn't want to get frog blood on my new crop top, but now that I think about it cutting up animals is cruel! Even the icky ones!
