[Those who remember the layout of Chane's apartment from the last time she appeared on the network may notice it has changed. Apparently she was serious about getting a job and moving into a paid apartment as soon as she could. This would be that new apartment

[he was going to congratulate her on getting a job, but uuuh that man breaking in was a bit distracting.]

Sitting down again, Chane sets her notebook on her lap and tilts her head inquisitively at the screen.]

[a creeper, more like, but at least he... seemed like he wanted to be subtle? ... maybe?]

Chane blinks once, before her eyes lid slightly and she dismisses the China's worry with a small shake of her head. If she were to hazard a guess as to who her visitor was... well. There is nothing to worry about.
She turns around, but sees no one on the balcony. She is not stupid though. That does not mean he has gone. Instead, she turns her attention back to the communicator and picks up her notebook.]
It is fine.

[and so he'll question.]
Who is it?

[Chane pauses, frowning at the notebook. How would she describe Claire? She does not really have a word for him. She doesn't have friends, as such, and she is uncertain he fits in that category.

I doubt he'd harm me.

It is not anyone's business but hers, yet she cannot really ignore the question. Seeing someone trying to break into someone's apartment, no matter how unworried the owner of that apartment is, is bound to raise some questions.
It takes a long while before she picks up her pen again.]
... Something personal. Something I am still not sure about.

[a beat, but Chane's turned out to - so far - be fairly decent, so -]
If you do need help, you would push that big red button, yes?
Reply
[The message is short and simple, but Chane's expression is no offended or angered by the suggestion.]

[he really does mean to back off after that, with one last pause. then--]
Now, where did you find work?
Reply
[There is a pause.]
It is best suited to what I can do, I feel.
