[hot pants really is so strong.

jiuqing finds herself nodding.]

...there's no changing the past. All any of us can do is work toward a better future... right?

[fleshedout]

Exactly. Even you with you...second chance? I presume?

[Yeah like on second thought.]

[What happened there.]

And what you've said sounds like the strong Miss Hot Pants I know.

[she smiles]

...let's do our best.

[fleshedout]

...I try to be.

[A pause.]

[fleshedout]

[time to go pet some brightly colored animals for emotional support.]
