( Now, the face might be familiar enough to the people here when it appears over the network, but Beth doesn't realise just how popular her face is here just yet. She's quite happy to bring it out for the world to see, tired as she might feel, and even if it feels like the effort of mustering a smile might just do her in completely right now she still musters a twist at the corner of her mouth that is, at least, a gesture close enough to pass. )

So, this place is wild. ( The voice is accented, but not heavy, Canadian if anyone knows to listen for it. More prominently, she speaks with a tight jaw, clipped with a slightly mocking drawl to the words. If nothing else, that should set her slightly apart from the other lookalikes floating around. ) Who've I gotta kill for a decent cup of coffee, huh?

( It's supposed to be funny - and she's smiling as if it was - but something is just...off. It's not quite far enough off of a grimace to be a real grin, the muscles twitch in her jaw like she's clenching her teeth, and she seems incredibly distracted despite the fact that she's obviously chosen this moment to make her post. Finally she gives up the act, face falling into a neutral expression as she huffs out a breath forceful enough to blow the sprawling hairs out of her face. )

Also, I could do with...another go of that arrival 101 if anyone's got a minute.

( There's another pause, another attempt at a grin, and then a weak wave: )

Thanks.

( And with that, she's out. )

Yeah, hell of a coincidence, right?

( Unsurprisingly Beth’s tone indicates that she absolutely does not think it’s a coincidence. )

[ghoulking]

There are so many coincidences when the Porter is involved.

[brandishes]

Sounds like it. ( Already she's suspecting this 'place' of shady goings on, but whether that's her in built paranoia or because of any real evidence is yet to be seen. ) Do you know any of my sisters, then?

[ghoulking]

Only Sarissa.

I've met Allison -she was a good friend - but she was sent back by the Porter, so... [ yeah, that's about it. he hasn't met anyone else, but he knows they are around.

he also worked with Mk but he doesn't actually know her face, so he doesn't know she is part of the clone sisterhood. ]

( It's not the first time she's heard that Alison was here, but it still feels a little like a gut punch. The only, only benefit to being apparently raised from the dead in some creepy ass superhero world is that at least she gets to see her sisters again. The fact that Alison was taken away before Beth even had a chance to get here just rubs salt in that wound all over again.

But of course, she's not going to say any of that. She just met you, Kaneki!! Instead she's going to try damn hard not to look sad, and instead inspect a hang nail very closely for a second as she speaks. Nailing that evasion technique there. )

How was she? Here, I mean. How did she find it, was she happy?

[ghoulking]

Hm- well. She missed her family a lot. Her children and her husband. But she had many of her sisters, so I think that made things a bit easier. [ he smiles ]
