[Open your journals today, Paradisa, and you may just find this intruding all over your pages.]



[Alternatively, if you don't want to bother trying to decipher her attempt at handwriting on the bottom right of the page, there's a young girl kneeling in the middle of the floor in the lobby, journal resting on her lap. She's staring at it with a really puzzled expression, staring at all these question marks she made and hoping someone will get it.

Then again if someone tries writing back...well, she hadn't thought about that and it would be a pain since she's illiterate, but she heard voices, so she's hoping for voices in response...and yet a part of her is terrified of the idea of getting a response of any kind.]

[She appreciates the drawing, because it's definitely one of the easiest ways to communicate for her. Nina adds in some messy shoulder length hair onto the second smiley, and two curved lines beneath the eyes.

The name takes a second longer to write than it should have, because everytime she needs to write it, she has to check the shackle attached to her wrist and attempt to copy it.

The writing is messy, but legible, moreso than her initial attempts.]

Nina? Nice to meet you.

[He pauses to consider how best to continue this conversation.]






Are you alone?

[He draws first a single stick figure, trying to match the hair she had added onto the smiley that represented her, and then, on the opposite page, he draws a group of stick figures, with the one representing her in the middle. Under each drawing, he adds a question mark.]

[She stares at both drawings for a moment, before circling the first drawing of her alone. She then makes a recognizable yet rough and poor sketch of the lobby around the drawing he'd done of her alone, to the best of her ability, mostly attempting to emphasize any parts of the room that would be most recognizable, to her at least.]

Oh--you're in the lobby.

[He draws two lines above the "lobby" she's drawn, hoping to imply more floors. On the second, he adds another line, sectioning off a "room," and draws his stick figure self there again.]
