[The recording is a bit of muffled static at first as she has to move her hand to hold the device better.]
Whoever you are, you'd better be ready for a fight. I'm not going down that easy. You can't just kidnap me and get away with it.
[There's a splash as she jumps from the pod into the water.]

[Ooh, wrong both counts. His expression fills with alarm.]
Goodness! And I...suppose you were the only one, then.
[Something tells him she was all AJ had.]
Well, er, don't worry. You haven't been absconded from his rescue, by any means. The leading theory is that your own world is, erm, paused, and that it's like you never left.
[When he has even a little anxiety, his motor mouth picks up speed. Hopefully she finds that comforting.]

[Well not exactly, but she won't clarify unless she has to.]
It's not like that. The New Frontier took him from me, to punish me. They're assholes.
[At least that's a relief. She can't leave AJ for too long, she's already missed too much.]
Re: [Video]
They, er, certainly sound unpleasant. I hope they were responsible, at least.
[Ted's been down this road too many times; asking questions about unfolding, tragic backstories until they're more depressed than when they began.]
Er-, it's all right. Don't feel compelled to confide your misfortunes if you'd rather not. Only if it brings some comfort, somehow.

There's not much to say. Everything ends the same way. People die.
Re: [Video]
That's...technically true, I suppose.
[Way to put the child on the optimism bandwagon, Ted. Quick: damage control!]
But while we're alive, might you take a look at the Children's Home anyway? If only for my own peace of mind. I think you'll like it there. It won't cost you anything but a twenty minute's walk.

[Because that's what it sounds like Ted, and she's been alone more than enough time to not need help.]
no subject
[He doubts he can convince a child that the world has threats unlike what she's used to. Maybe...]
Sheer necessity isn't the thing, though. Besides; have you considered the possibility that there may be children there who might need you? Now or in the future.

They'll figure it out, or they'll end up in the ground.
[She disconnects the conversation, there's no chance she's going to some kid's home.]
