[A very angry, very teenage Carol is frowning at the screen.]

I hope I can get out of here soon. I just want to get in to basic training as soon after I turn 18 as humanly possible. The community college here is nice, but I have bigger plans than that.

Whatever, graduation is just around the corner. I guess I'll just get a job until I get released. Maybe I can get some pre-reqs out of the way at the community collage. The credits probably won't transfer, but it's better than doing nothing.

[She huffs]

Anyways, can I spend the night with someone? I'm pretty sure my roommate might be plotting to kill me in my sleep.

[Good job, Carol, you poured water on the wilting plant. Look at her perk up and smile so shyly!]

R-really? Th-that's awfully kind of you. It would be n-nice to hear from someone o-on the outside. A-and you'll have such adventures!

[Seeing Sheska perk up makes Carol smile]

I send you pictures and everything. When I make it to being a pilot you'll be the first to know!

[librariansheart]

Ah! You'll be wonderful at it, I know you will! [Her confidence in that wipes the stutter from Sheska's voice and brightens her face.] They'd never be able to keep you down. What are you going to fly?

Hopefully I'll work up to being a fighter pilot, but at the moment I'd take pretty much anything. I wish there was somewhere around here I could get my pilot's license.

Oo... [Sheska shivers.] A f-fighter plane? You'll be c-careful, won't you? You won't b-be hurt... M-maybe they'll build a l-little airport here, and you c-could train here...

[tookthename]

Of course I'll be careful.

I doubt it. You need planes for an airport.

[librariansheart]

C-couldn't they bring in planes? M-maybe the little ones... f-for... for island t-tours and things?

[Video]

[tookthename]

Not with the force field around the island.

[librariansheart]

[Aaaand wilt.]

Oh. Oh, n-no... maybe not. I-I'm sorry, Miss Carol. I-I shouldn't have s-said anything.

[Video]

[tookthename]

[Oh no :(]

It's okay! I knew I was going to have to wait till I got off the island to start flight training. It's not your fault.

[Sheska makes a little noncommittal disagreement noise, and shakes her head, but doesn't push the point. Instead she tries to resurrect a smile.]

Well, um, good l-luck on your finals! I h-hope it'll set you up w-well for flight school.
