There's nowhere else like it, no, and I think that's for the best. It's... not really a good place. For a lot of reasons, that, um- [ She trails off a bit awkwardly, twirling the thimble around her pinky again. ] Well, it's complicated. You'll just have to take my word for it for now.

The technology may be amazing, but the fact that it was partially used to keep her a prisoner makes it much less endearing. So she pushes forth a smile, instead trying to get the focus away from her own shitty world and back to Connor's. ]
