[Ami can be seen lounging somewhere in her bedroom, a pile of dog-eared books at her side, a cup of tea resting on top of it. She's sitting with her back propped up against her bed, knees brought to her chest and an open book spread across her lap. By the angle of the camera, her communicator is resting on the floor, looking up. Ami notices it turned on, and she picks it up.]
...these things have a habit of recording all on their own, don't they? [A slightly worried look. That could be problematic.]
I suppose now's as good a time as any to ask, then. It's been brought to my attention that we're all from different places obviously, but also different points in history. It's easy to think of ourselves as being in the present, but it's quite possible that you and I are also from someone's past.
[Perhaps she shouldn't be following this line of thinking]
Which has be wondering, is this place we're all in...is it operating somehow...outside of the realm of time? Has there been any observation on this fact?
And consequentially...it's perhaps ignorant of me to assume that time operates the same here as it does back home. An earth's day is approximately twenty-four hours. But say some of you come from a place that isn't on earth, does the day seem longer or shorter than where you come from? Are we all operating on an earthly time basis?
[It was times like this that Ami wished Setsuna was still there.]
Oh! And...to the hosts and hostesses of the Christmas party...[Quick bow.] Thank you very much for letting me intrude upon your home. I hope it wasn't too much trouble.
