"It's okay. I love you."

"I love you."

Contented sighing.

A knock on the door. "You rang?"

Boots gets it, not having a head in her lap nor needing to remain still to work.

In comes Cam. "Hey, welcome to the world of the awake, you want a chiplocked computer?"

"Love one. - huh."

"Chip installed, here's a computer to go with it." He tosses her a computer like Sibyl's. "Huh?"

"...oh, Isabella said that my alts were all the socially-unacceptable kind of monosexual but I guess I didn't think much of it? I'd been assuming that my problem was that the most appealing person in the world happened to be a girl, not that I was categorically broken on that front --"

"You will sound very provincial if you go around referring to this as being 'broken', FYI. Do I parse as a Bell that instantly or is it just that you already knew?"

"It would probably have taken me a sentence or two if I hadn't already known."

Wag. "Anyway, enjoy your computer, you'll need to teach it to respond to your thoughts."

"How do I do that, or is it self-evident?"

"It has a tutorial on it - hold it like Sibyl's doing."

Computer?

Tutorial!

And then the really large folder of names!!! She's so happy!

"Seeya. Let me know if you need stuff." Pop.

"I'm just going to read these until Boots is done for the day, if that's okay."

"Course it is."

These are so many people. She's very happy.

"- okay, I'm out. I'll finish up tomorrow."

"Thank you very much. You have very useful powers."

"You're welcome! New Bells are always surprised one of us is a therapist but I keep coming in useful!"

"As long as there are Ardas, to be sure!"
