Ah... oh. Hello. [The young woman's voice sounds uncertain but curious.] Wow... Sorry. I think my head is still spinning from all of this. I feel like I'm so far from home.

[Though she supposes... she is. New York was pretty far from Japan.]

I don't really understand what's going on but I do know they must be wrong about me. I'm no demigod. And if I am, it would be helpful if they could at least tell me who I'm suppose to be related to.

[She feels more lost as she speaks. She can't feel her Personas presences, which distresses her on its own. And she doesn't know anything about Greek gods or demigods or speaking English or...]

Oh, I'm sorry. My name is Yukiko Amagi. I guess I'm not the only one with all these questions, huh?

[And they both have a steak obsession, to boot…]

Wow! Really? [He sounds impressed!] Heh, most people our age don’t have their future careers planned out at this point. Did you always know you were gonna take over the inn?

You know, if they just provided some fresh meat and other ingredients, we could make our own ramen and everything right here. I don’t think the meals are balanced enough as they are, anyway.

[Expect a laughing fit when she makes that connection, to be sure.]

Sort of... It's a long story. The important thing is that I made the decision to do it all by myself. [Whether it had been set in stone or not... she had chosen to do it and that's what mattered to her.]

That's a really good idea. Do you think we could ask for it? Or... maybe go into the city and find something? It's New York City, right? I'm sure they'd have something like that. [She didn't know much about the United States let alone New York City but... surely they'd have basic ingredients for ramen.]

[Unseen to her, he smiles in encouragement. She might be able to hear it in his voice.] Of course! If you don’t feel passion for what you wanna do, then it’s not the right choice. You have to put your whole heart and soul into it!

Well, I can ask Chiron, but I doubt the gods’ll let us leave camp. That’s what the monsters are there for – to keep us in here. I think I’ve heard of pizza being mentioned as a New York specialty, but hey, if they have ramen, I’d be up for trying it out!
