['You already are', she wants to say, but she thinks better of it. Utena remains quiet for a moment, before eyes light up]

...hey, Tina. Who else do you hang out with around here?

[continuousgroaning]

My housemates are always good to me. But I haven't found a whole lot of people my own age to hang out with, either.

[andtherevolution]

Well, maybe that can be your contribution. Just finding people like you and making them a little less lonely.

[continuousgroaning]

Not a bad idea. ... I wasn't the best at making friends back home, but I haven't had much trouble getting people to talk to me here. It's nice.

[andtherevolution]

Mmn... That's one good thing about this place. I had friends back home, but there's people here that I wouldn't have even dreamed of talking to back home. People from different countries, different times... heck, different worlds, even.

[Staying still has taken its toll on Utena, and she glances out the window as she stretches her legs out]

But no matter what, in the end we're all ImPorts. I guess that makes it easier to understand each other.

[Tina nods agreement.]

We all have at least that much in common. We've all been taken from home and dumped here... we're just trying to make the best of it. Keep living the kind of lives we want to. It's hard to not feel SOME kind of connection to others.

[andtherevolution]

Yeah... and you know, a lot of people don't really have that back where they're from. For them this place can be a second chance.

[continuousgroaning]

Yeah... to make things right. It's kinda nice when I think about it that way.
