[ there's a young woman dressed in what looks like some kind of uniform, hair tied into two buns behind her head. She's muttering to herself -- but she has already started the feed, perhaps before she's ready. ]

Alright, Tico, here goes nothing -- 

[ Her face falls slightly ] 

Oh, it's already recording. Can I start again? 

[ No? Well, this is kind of awkward. ] 

Hi, I'm Rose. Tico. Rose Tico. I've been here a few days now and just wanted to introduce myself. So I am. Hi. 

So I was thinking of taking up some work while I was here. I'm a mechanic -- I spent a lot of time working on star ships, things of that nature. But I'm good at fixing other things, too. Payment can be discussed once the job is done.

[ With an awkward wave and a smile, she cuts the feed. ]

[As someone who has made many video mistakes in her life... Konoha starts off her response with a cheery wave.]

Hello there, Rose Tico! I'm Konoha.

I guess it's not anything like star ships, and I don't know machines good enough to know how different it is... but can you fix kitchen things?

[doingtalking]

Hi! [ Rose returns the wave, just as eagerly. ]

Kitchen things? What kind of kitchen things? I'm not overly knowledgeable about the tech here, so I can't make any promises, but I could have a look at it, to see? Familiarize myself with it a little more, maybe.

It’s the box that makes rice and keeps it hot all day! And it sings at you when the rice is done...

[it must have a fancy name, because “rice cooker” was just a description, wasn’t it?]

I know I could just get a new one, but that seems like such a waste...

[doingtalking]

Okay, this I have to see.

[ A singing box that cooks rice? How interesting is that! ]

I understand it perfectly. Why get rid of something completely when it's possible that it's not entirely unfixable?

[lumberlady]

Exactly! Here people throw away all sorts of stuff, and you can just buy things so easily, but... I don't want to get spoiled before I go back to my world!

[doingtalking]

That won't do. [ Maybe it's because the Resistance requires so many spare parts, she just finds that wasteful! ]

If you want to bring it by in a little bit I could have a look. Or I could go over to you.

[lumberlady]

I live out in the Groves, so I guess I better come to you- I don't want to make you come out all this way to do me a favor...

Where should I bring it?

[doingtalking]

To my place. I'm still working on finding tools, won't be too much longer - !

[ attached, will be the location of where she's currently living. ]

[lumberlady]

Oh- There it is, thanks!

Before I go... are there stairs?
