This whole thing fucking sucks, I know. A couple of us have been talking about a buddy system instead of the safehouse, but for now, this is kind of the safest option, you know? And it's mostly just boring at first.

But there's food and a stocked bar. And, uh...
[She hesitates, reaching up to toy absently with the pendant on her necklace, sliding it back and forth on the chain with a quiet click click click. She already feels stupid even suggesting this, but—]
I could stay there with you, if you want. I know I'm just some random person you just met, but...
[Maybe it would help to have a familiar face, she's trying to say. And it's not like she and her roommate are getting along right now anyway.]
