[A quick look shows that Sonya's quarters seems to have escaped the whole 'island of misfit toys' curse. Much as she should be relieved by this, she seems more despondent and drained then anything.]

Up until this point, I've tried to keep personal history and stories from the network, but..fuck it, not like most of us are sleeping anyway. [There's no music in the background, something that those who know her would find strange. With electricity being in low supply, she's trying to conserve it for necessities only.]

For those who I haven't met, my name's Sonya Blade, Lieutenant colonel in the United States military if it means anything.

Back home, I have a two month old daughter who needs to be fed every few hours, even at night. Nothing I'm not used to, military shifts usually mean short nights anyway, but..I keep waking up out of habit and thinking Cass needs to be fed..or taken care of in some way.

Point being, it feels too damn empty in this place.

Does anyone need a place to wait out whatever's going on? I have enough room for two or three people, so long as one doesn't mind sharing a bed. As far as I know, nothing in my place is alive or moving.

Always, to some degree or so. Keeping distracted makes it easier to bear.[Compartmentalizing was something she'd become very good at from her time in the military. She never thought so far a head, only on what they had to deal with now. In this place, when survival was uncertain, it only made it easier.]

He wants to keep Earthrealm safe, we all do. He just doesn't...[She forced herself to breath, to remind herself that the war against Outworld was done and overwith.] He failed to realize that putting all your hopes into one plan never works out in real life. He saves earthrealm, that's great, but can it really be called a victory when so many of your allies are lost, or so many of the people you mean to protect are dead.

[She swallowed hard, inwardly scowling for loosing control like this.] You want to come over for a bit? Don't even have to spend the night.

Then I will do my best to keep you distracted. I'd imagine you learned new fighting techniques while you were away. I would learn them, too. [there, a tradition they're both used to. she hopes it helps]

...definitely like our so-called gods. Who tally up the victories in terms of how it benefits them, not Hadriel as a whole. Shortsighted and easily distracted.

[she gives what's meant to be a comforting smile] I shall. And I will. You don't need to be alone tonight.

In my line of work, adapting in combat can literally be a matter of life or death. [She does attempt a small smile on this. For the simple fact that she survived.] So I don't know about techniques, but have certainly improvised on my own style. Maybe given time, you could demonstrate the same.

[She just had enough energy to trade a well placed jab, because this was Margery.] Thank you.

I certainly hope so. When I go to Matt's world, I'll need all of the improvement I can muster.

You're welcome
