[ It's some time after they've arrived in Olympia and settled down. The city's vast, filled to the brim with people, and rather than hunt them all down individually, it seems easier to invest in a quick phone call. ]
Hello, Roman, this is Riza. I wanted to call and see if you've been doing well so far.

[ Truth be told, it's a good thing she reaches out because even though he's thought about her and wondered if she's coping well enough, it just wouldn't occur to him to reach out to her, but those are common courtesies he's simply not used to. He's never lived that kind of life, with people just...caring to check up on each other. It's a nice feeling to receive it, though, he's finding. ]
Riza. Hi. I'm uh...pretty good, I guess. Got a place to sleep, a few roommates. Better than it could be.
[ Truly. Even if they'd only worked together for that brief time he'd struck her as a man with good intentions, even if the world hadn't seen fit to provide him any mercy. ]
I'm well, thank you for asking. There are five of us in the housing I've been assigned so it's a bit of a squeeze, but we'll make do. Have you roommates been treating you well?
[ He asks himself if he would have felt concern if she were to say she wasn't okay. What would he have done? Would he have gone to her? He knows most people probably don't have these types of thoughts cluttering their minds every time they have a simple conversation with someone, but it's all so new to him that he can't help analyzing everything, including himself. He realizes that while he's not sure if he's glad she's okay - if only because his experience of emotions is also different from others - he knows he would be concerned if she weren't okay. ]
They have. One of my roommates - I met him at Thesa Station. We know each other.
[ Some of her own housemates too she'd met before joining up with. She wonders how much of it had been due to Natha influence and how much was simply due to dumb luck. ]

Are you...good?

Have you lived with people before this?
