The speech itself hadn't been much that Wednesday could do about for now. While Zoey's audible function would prove useful later, she had no phone, and lacked the ability to communicate with the AI discretely- at least for the time being. Almost as soon as the speech ended, Andrea had appeared beside her. Wednesday didn't jump, but was surprised by the girl's stealth and agility. She clenched her hands into fists out of habit, squeezing hard for a moment, and then relaxing when she recognized that it was friendly face. Andrea invited Wednesday to walk with her, and then began meandering off. Wednesday remained rooted to her seat for a moment- and looked around briefly. She had no where better to be, so she sighed and slowly stood to catch up with Andrea.

"Anyways..." Andrea began slowly. As if trying to correctly conjugate the words.

 "Forgive Arianna. She's energetic and lovely, if a bit... hasty in presuming what I wanted to know. It's not a fault either, though. Her initiative is one reason why she has the job she's burdened with."

Wednesday shrugged wordlessly. She was used to that. Where she was from, people came to her if they needed something or were being put down for one reason or another. Get the job done. That's how it works when you're on the clock. Wednesday caught the girl in the middle of her nervous habit, fidgeting. Wednesday understood that, but made no comment. She did that too.

"You don't have to tell me anything you don't want to tell me." Andrea said, moving on much to Wednesday's appreciation.. "I just wanted to know what was bothering you."

It was Wednesday's turn to be at a relative loss for words. She opened her mouth to speak, and then shut it again. She could [i]feel[/i] herself trying to form the words that would properly explain herself to this... stranger, but she was so verbally and emotionally constipated that it wasn't going to happen. At least not now. Wednesday sighed and massaged the bridge of her nose.

"I, uh..." Wednesday finally began. "I've had to hurt a lot of people. I'm not here for the same reason the rest of you are, if that makes sense." she said, trying to put it in layman's terms. She glanced behind her, and swore she saw a few copies of Arianna following them several paces back- but said nothing of it. It had to be her mind playing tricks on her. People couldn't copy themselves. [i]Then again,[/i] she mused, [i]this isn't a ship of regular people.[/i]

"Uh, how... how long have you been here?" Wednesday said, trying to curve the conversation away from her past. If this weird, probably somewhat crazy girl was going to end up her friend, she had to appear at least somewhat friendly and open. Having a friend would be nice change of pace.
