If I say it to Klaus, he'll think he's allowed to say it back to me, and he's not. [Joking? Half-joking. Lieutenant Tayrey is not cute.]
Yes, the Tower was so different! It took me a while to get used to things. [Culture shock. Not quite as bad as on this ship, but then young Ari had wanted very much to be a spacer, and had been eager to adapt.] I'm not sure if lucky is the right word, because it would have been more fortunate if you'd lived in peace [and prosperity] when you were young. But it was certainly an advantage to you. You made it one.
[She chuckles.] If he knows about those things, you'll find them out from him, won't you? You don't need me for that.
[She listens to the list of games, and they don't really mean anything to her - until her eyes light up at the mention of map simulations.] I want to do that! [Ari grins.] Maybe not now. Maybe when we're finished with the Art of War project, we can do map simulations instead. We can take turns in using land maps and space maps. [This sounds like the best idea ever. Say yes, Oda!]
