Oh. Oh my! Yes, I know how this technology works.

[ The video image wavers as Elizabeth peers into the camera, and all that is visible is one bright yellow eye. After a moment, she pulls it away from her face. ]

This is the social media that I have been heard tales of. What an enticing ring to a name, isn't it? "Social media." To facilitate bonds between people despite many challenges that others might surrender to, defeating such constraints as time and distance. How marvelous this is.

Hello, I am Elizabeth! [ She practically sings her greeting. ] I look forward to experiencing your world, both that of social media and otherwise. Our sponsors have assigned to me a domicile, and I have my very own room in that of the second household of De Chima.

I think I will turn it into a dance club.

Eternally ascending, it could be fun in the Velvet Room. But when my guests finally reached their destination, they would move on and I would have to wait once again.

However, I finally met a guest I wished to depart with instead.

Really? That... sounds like it's nice. Having that kind of person.

[elevatorattendant]

Yes. I find it to be very fulfilling to have a person that I feel this way for. It... makes me feel as if there is more to obtain, and much to discover.

[resipiscent]

I'm sure there is. I'm happy for you.
