It seemed like this place never quit. First it turns her into a child and back and then brings others? Was there never a moments rest?

"Welcome to your new home." Welcoming someone wasn't normal, but what about this place was?

"I don't know if I'd go that far just yet," came Tracy's response. She certainly wasn't willing to call it that. Besides, 'home' was something that was a bit foreign to her anymore. She hadn't really had a place she truly thought of as home in... she couldn't even remember when. So she didn't try. Instead she arched a brow slightly. "Although everyone around here seems pretty complacent about being stuck. I have to admit, that surprises me a bit. People aren't usually so... passive."

At least, not the people she dealt with on a typical basis.

"I still wouldn't." But why not be polite regardless. Her home might be here, but this wasn't her home. "There's no way out or people would have found one. Guess that's how they cope."

"If there's a way in, seems to me there'd be a way out."

It wasn't a statement that she was going to be the one to find it. Tracy may think herself capable - and certainly possessing qualities that others likely didn't have in this place - but she wasn't an idiot. Coming across as someone, somehow, better than, wasn't going to make people want to offer assistance or information.

"Personally, I've never been one for being complacent. Where I'm from, you don't get very far if you just accept what you're given without a fight."

"You'd think, but it's not apparent. And the Sanctuary doesn't seem to have any helpful doors." Ashley hadn't explored much herself, but she'd heard from others. "That's like a lot of the world. Fight much?"

"When it's necessary."

The answer was simply given, nothing more or less. Tracy knew it likely revealed little, or possibly too much, but it was the only thing she could think to say.

"I guess it remains to be seen if this is one of those times or not," she finally added, after a thoughtful pause.

That didn't tell Ashley much, but she could pull a few conclusions from it. "Other than occasionally not being yourself, it's pretty peaceful." Which didn't sound helpful or entirely calming.
