It is a small relief that Amelia doesn't comment further on her situation, other than to reassure her that she won't be alone. Adia has been blessed in so many ways, but the Nexus can be cruel at the most unexpected of times. That's a lesson that Amelia has likely learned as well, although Adia would be quick to forgive her for not relating to the rest. Amelia has the skill and the temerity to take on anyone who would dare to attack her. Adia has only her empathy, and lately it seems even that has failed her.

But at least now she can borrow a bit of that self-assuredness and follow her friend out the door, still holding her hand. Her heart beats hard in her chest, but she quells it with another quiet breath. It's her and Amelia, out for a walk in the Shopping District. Totally safe. They aren't even male this time! The memory of that awkward but ultimately educational shopping experience makes her smile a little to herself and shake off more of her anxiety.

"A vacuum is large enough that we probably should wait. Cleaning supplies we can pick up just about anywhere. Is there a hardware store near where you get groceries? Hardware stores usually have those sorts of supplies." She vaguely remembers passing by one once that was run by a family of large beavers. They seemed nice.
