[ Evie doesn't mind when people see her face, but she's so flustered by something that she forgot to turn the vide on. For now, however, it's clear in the tone and how subdued she sounds that something is entirely amiss. ]

Those...posters all over town. The ones about skiiing...be careful staring at them for too long. I can't really explain it, but I started feeling...

[ Give her a minute. She needs to work out how to put this. ]

I want to say lost. I also want to say disconnected. Both?

[ A pause. ] We'll go with both. I'm not sure what could have caused it, so just...be wary. Okay?

Thank you for your time.

Agreed. Maybe also a little lonely?

[ Or a lot lonely. ]

Did you feel that as well?

[ Rosabella nods. ] I felt the same way. Missing home and everyone back there suddenly, so deeply, and just...terrified that I'll be stuck here, separated from them forever.

Are you feeling better? Hot chocolate is helping. If you want some, you're free to come by.

[ It's not so much the hot chocolate helping as it's the distraction of it. Of making it just right and holding the very warm cup in her hands as she watches the video from town. ]

[ She considers this for a moment, then manages a smile. ]

Well, I am feeling a bit better. But I wouldn't mind some hot chocolate.

[ Or some company. ]
