99 - A valid question

[im_not_a_rookie]

Some nights, I realize how much I miss home, and I'm left to wonder if I'm the only one.

What is the one thing everyone misses most about their homes? That one thing that, if you had two minutes back there, would fulfill you enough to keep going on here?

I miss my job, but I'm not big on looking back at it with fond memories.

[im_not_a_rookie]

Can I be nosy ask what you used to do?

[ellectrics]

Yes.

[im_not_a_rookie]

would you answer if I asked?

[ellectrics]

Ask and we'll see.

[im_not_a_rookie]

What sort of employment did you have back on your own world?

[ellectrics]

I'm an agent for the Company.

[im_not_a_rookie]

What company? What sort of work does it do?

[ellectrics]

Now that would be asking too much, sweets.

I'll just say that we deal in matters of helping all those boring freaks who have special powers.

[im_not_a_rookie]

Helping? I think the italics are clueing me in that you're using that word with a bit of salt.

[ellectrics]

Good girl.

Helping is all in the eye of the beholder. I consider it to be helping.

[im_not_a_rookie]

I'm not a puppy.

Again, I get that creeping feeling that our idea of helping are on different ends of the spectrum here.

I guess that all depends on what your idea of help is. Wouldn't it, Elena?
