Is it?

[It's not said...angrily, or accusingly, just in the same way one would comment on getting unexpectedly praised for their dancing when they thought they were...not terrible, but also not great. Or their cooking, or any other skill or trait which was merely just there: functional, good, even, but not remarkable. Is she good at bouncing back from things? Yes, and Guinaifen knows it.

Is it that admirable?

Well...maybe she should take it for the compliment that it is.]


I like to think I'm adaptable! It's not the first time something like this has happened to me: start off at one place, end up somewhere else. And- please don't get the wrong idea. I like and respect the Xianzhou Alliance and it's culture. It's my home and I don't plan on going anywhere- well, besides here, I guess! [It's a joke! Laugh.] But I feel like announcing where I'm from might be a bad idea if I don't take the time beforehand to make sure that I'm not in a planet full of followers of The Abundance. You know? Same deal here. Focus on understanding where you are, and then figure out how to make the most of your chances.
