[Ah. Elizabeth's brow furrows and for once she actually looks uncertain.]
I own that it was not an easy thing to adapt to. We barely found ourselves here before we were wisked away to a completely new world. There was a great deal I had to learn and I wager there is even more I could learn even now.
[And given Elizabeth is the sort to mask discomfort with jokes and teasing, a great deal of what turmoil she did and still does feel has been more reserved for quieter, lonelier moments.
But...]
I would think this was a dream if it were not half as fantastical as it is. Despite being a prodigious reader, my dreams have never been so vivid as to call forth people who can traverse through space or robot men who behave in more gentlemanly ways than some humans! No, calling all of this a dream simply won't do.
So I have set my mind about another task. If I am to be here then I will be capable of experiencing a great deal more than I would at home. If I am to experience new things then I shall do so wholeheartedly and at my own discretion when I am capable of such.
[At that, she gives a teasing smile.]
I also have a very vexing temperament. Any intimidation only causes my courage to rise, you see.
