[ well parvati thinks the doll is plenty nice! as evidenced by her holding it real gentle. ]
Uh, yeah. Got here in September. [ it's also not like she's recieved a lot of things, but this is nicer to her than the weird little figurine tenna gave her. what even was that. ] Never got much in the way of gifts before that, either.
[ it'll look nice on her shelf, at least! once she finally gets that put up. ] You been here a while?
Oh, wow. You're new-new. [Compared to Shoka, at least.] You could say that. Comin' up on a year now...
[It's almost been a year, and yet she still manages to pull off dumb stunts like this. A year, and she still backslides into some of her worst old habits. It's strange—and embarrassing—to think about, so she tries not to.]
[ yep. that was as awkward as she could muster. great job. she mentally kicks herself for having made zero improvement on that front. two months, huh? it's finally hitting her just how long that is, even if she can so easily condense that down into eight weeks -- which feels lesser to her. she shudders at the thought that she may end up grounded here, in an unfamiliar body, for longer than she ever spent aboard the unreliable. ]
A year, huh? O-oh. And your name too, if that's all right?
[She's teasingly imitating the inflection of Parvati's own introduction, because she just has to.]
Try not to freak out on me, okay? Just 'cause I've been stuck here for a year doesn't mean you'll be.
[Then again, it's not like anyone who's been brought to the Bay from another world has ever actually left. The only ones gone are the ones who fell into comas. Mercifully, she opts not to explain this to Parvati.]

[ she doesn't really want to explain this to shoka, either. it's not like she's freaking out, necessarily (she can do that on her own time). ]
I'll be fine. Thanks, Shoka.
