[...oh. Well. Nami won't take her irritation out on a little girl. She glances down at the communicator with a frown, but she sounds friendlier, at least.]
That's right. Not until October.
...I don't know you, do I? [Nanako looks a little familiar.]
N-no, it's okay! [ She shakes her head a little, but is still smiling. ] I know it must be pretty confusing when you're just new.. It's been a while for me, so it's a little hard to remember.
[ Nanako blinks a bit curiously - and shyly, definitely shyly too - at the communicator as she speaks up. ]

[ Somewhat awkward, but now she's a bit friendlier Nanako tries to smile.. ]
And I don't think we've met before.. I'm Nanako. Nanako Dojima.

--wait a minute. October?]
I'm Nami. Ah... nice to meet you... [Trailing off.]
...you're sure it's October?
Reply
[ She nods a little at that, still with that slight smile. ]
And uh-huh.. It's October today, October 26th, I think.

...uh. I've... lost some time somewhere. [Seriously? It's really October? But she only talked to Noel yesterday...] Where I come from, it's June.
[Maybe she got mallynapped and doesn't remember. Or Nanako is really confused, but she doubts it.
Or this place is what people are saying it is, but...]

I think that's how they say it.

[Well, what now? She's not going to interrogate a little girl. :|]
You've got it right. That seems to be pretty common round here, these days. How long have you been here, Nanako?

[ Give her a moment as she starts counting on her fingers. ]
Twelve, and then.. three.. ... fifteen months!

How old are you? Do you have family here?

And I'm with big bro.. he's family, even if he isn't my real brother. And some of his friends are here too.

It seems like I just... got here today, Nanako. [She sounds uncertain.] So I guess I have some stuff to learn. Sorry if I sounded mad.
[Which...she still is mad, but you know. She'll take that out on certain adults instead.]
