[ A sector nine apartment. The wallpaper is peeling in a few places, but the surfaces are free from clutter except for a kettle set to one side, spouting steam. Claire ducks into view, checking the shot is lining up. ]

It’s running. Oh, I mean, action! [ He seems to be running on an even higher octane fuel than usual. It’s not hard to discern why

[ Somehow, it feels curiously embarrassing to be watching this, as if she isn't supposed to be interrupting something so intimate-- but a question is asked, and since she's more or less in a position to answer... ]

If someone's interested in teaching, they're more than welcome to use the Community Center for holding classes.

[ Still a bit giddy ] That's real kind of you to offer! [ and then his brain catches up ] Are you even in a position to be doin' that? I don't recognize your voice! [ It's not meant to be as rude as it probably sounds, although since he switched his feed to video so Chane would be more included it's just obvious that he's shooting "do you know who that is?" looks at her. ]

CHANE CAN JUMP IN WHENEVER

[topslug]

[ She switches the feed on-- well, she and Chane had "talked" absolutely vaguely in passing before, but maybe it's been long enough that the other girl won't recognize her. Then again, if Claire was at the meeting, he miiight just have noticed her in the room. ]

My name's Yako Katsuragi. I'm more or less in charge of managing any events held at the community center, so I am in a position to do that. [ She grins, hopefully in a reassuring way. ]

I'M SURE SHE WILL

[vinovidivici]

[ By the looks of his grin he doesn't need much reassurance. The two of them looked in on the meeting - possibly from an air vent - so her face is a little familiar. ] Oh, sure. You're the person to talk to then - that's lucky! [ Lucky she doesn't seem mind him dragging the Community Centre into it without asking? Not even considering that. ]

Wait a sec -- you guys are engaged?

[vinovidivici]

Not exactly! I'd say it ain't official 'til she falls in love with me back. [ Grinning pretty massively for a guy whose fiancée doesn't love him ]

[ A housemate... And he's seen Claire once or twice, too, hasn't he. If it wasn't for Claire explaining it she would be unsure how to respond, but as that is taken care of, she gathers herself enough to meet Tyrell's eyes shyly, shifting to sit closer to Claire. ]

Uh, I'd say that's a pretty important step!

Unless it's like an arranged marriage or something.

You guys are engaged?! [She knew it!]

[She then spells "HI MS CHANE" with her fingers. That's sign language, apparently]

[ You're making it hard to explain the reality when you're being so damn perky about it. ] N-not exactly... I still got some convincing to do!

[ Looking over at Chane to see if she's going to do some kind of breathtakingly adorable sign language back. ]

[ Chane jumps a little at the sheer volume of the audio. No sign language here. But Maya's making it difficult to get a word in edgeways, for lack of a better term-- if Claire's having trouble explaining then it's not just her. Maya's energy is truly something.

Watching those hand movements and only managing to catch about half of them, she lifts her hand and gives a very small, tentative wave back. ]

[What Claire said: "I still got some convincing to do"

What Maya heard "I need your expertise, Maya"]

Just leave it to me, Mr. Stanfield!
