[There's a long pause of mild static over the network as Eve fumbles with the NOC. She tries her best to keep her voice from shaking as badly as her hands are as she finally manages to flip the device into audio mode.

There's still a very long pause before a voice comes over. It sounds calm and collected, though anyone who knew her would know that

You are now part of the city we know as "Paradise", Major. As far as we can determine, there is no way back to whatever world you formerly inhabited. The doctors in the Clinic have revived you from what amounts to "radiation poisoning", and you are now on your own as far as shelter and whatnot.

There are several housing facilities available, however, if you are a part of Commander Reed's team, I believe they are quartered together in the eastern part of the city.

[Another long pause as she listens to the stranger on the other end of the line, considering his words carefully. She can't help but snort indignantly before answering.]

Paradise? How aptly named. [Oh yes, welcome the dry wit that is the Major.] And what is your name and rank, if I may be so bold to ask?

[furorimperator]

Indeed. Its founders must have had quite the ironic foresight.

You may, of course. I am Sephiroth, General of ShinRa's Elite SOLDIER Unit upon my homeworld of Gaia, and Commander of Paradise's Enforcer Unit, Defense Division.

[She's not quite sure how she feels about interaction with a foreign Commander without Jason around, but she perseveres.]

Major Eve Dancy of Beta Tango Oscar. You mentioned Commander Reed, you've met?

[furorimperator]

We have. A good soldier. He is currently assigned to the Exploratory Division, under the command of Hiyono Castagno here in the city.

A pleasure, Major.

[subsonicsoldier]

The best soldier, and a damn fine leader. [She felt the need to correct him automatically, and didn't try to censor herself.] I wouldn't necessary consider the current situation pleasurable, but I'm indeed glad to see that some kind of order exists in this place.

[furorimperator]

I cannot affirm nor deny, Major, as I have only just met the man recently. However, he does have the loyalty of his team, which is impressive. One of the best qualities a leader can possess, the trust of his men.

For the moment, it does. I am not a fan of chaos, and disorganization usually leads to unnecessary bloodshed and lost lives.
