Morning, Sunny
---Well, today was the day.
The beginning of your out-of-territory assignment to the North Pole as a representative of the Rose Cross, which was -at least for you- a rare chance to leave the country and see at least a bit of the world outside of your comfort zone... Of course, you certainly like your comfort zone, and in many ways this assignment was certainly annoying, but...
There's at least a bit of excitement in it-!
The sort that seems destined to emerge at the beginning of any sort of new journey-!
Although if you were at least a bit excited, the bizarre A.I version of Agatha...
"Let's see... List of items for a journey... Do you have a toothbrush? Food? Clothes? I am aware that this is your first time on this sort of journey after all, so worry not, like a good secretary I came prepared with all necessary information-!"
...Is chatting away at you like a sort of Mother Hen, the type that wants you to double-triple check that all of your clothes were where they should be, that you knew the plan of action today -meet up with Catherine and the others at the Spirit Pulse Terminal, which you would take to an area near the SLEIPNIR- and that your room was left neat and orderly so that you had a clean place to return to at the end of it all-!
In other words, she was easily the most excited out of the two of you...
Still, not like there was anything particularly wrong with that-!
When your newfound A.I is satisfied with the state of your room you close the door for what will be the last time in awhile, and...
"Ah, Eva. Getting ready to head out?"
...Accidentally bump into the Commander, who had seemed posed to knock on your door right as you come out of it-!
Of course, she doesn't mind the minor accident... Indeed, she simply smiles at you as the two of you bounce off of each other with a small thud-!
"Thought I'd walk everyone to the Terminal, see em off myself."
In spite of being blind, the older woman chuckles at her own use of the word 'see,' another bizarre quirk of hers...
Or perhaps, simply her ability to laugh at her own misfortunes in life...
Behind her is just Alyx, who is poking at her watch with general disinterest in her surroundings, so it seems you were second on her list today...
"And perhaps -just perhaps- do my best to banish any last minute butterflies of any nervous recruits...?"
Nevertheless, the Knight Commander is as teasingly gentle as always...
Coming around just to make sure everyone felt okay...
"Wanna come along?"
She really did act like everyone's aunt at times...
