[When Quorra's image appears on the Forge, she looks a little...strung out, for lack of a better term. Paler than usual. Her eyes are wider than they've ever been, unblinking, and she's fidgeting in place, twisting her fingers together, jiggling her leg, twitching a shoulder.]
...They kicked me out. Of the library. I was just trying to read... [All of the books.] I need to read. There's so much knowledge, so much I don't know yet. I want to know. I want to know everything.
So I went to the bookstore. I work there too, but they won't let me in. [Her voices rises.] I need to get in! [She finally blinks, apparently trying to get a hold of herself.] I really want to keep reading. Why won't they let me? [A petulant tone enters her voice, but Quorra catches herself in time to prevent further whining, bringing a hand to her forehead. It's shaking very slightly.]
...Something's wrong with me, I think. Maybe my cortical processors are shutting down from lack of stimulation, or - or I'm glitching, or something.
This isn't right. I don't feel right.
