Hello~!? Is there any one- woah.

[There was a new face in Wonderland and at the moment she was covered in dirt. After spending the night inside a dirt hole (thanks for that, Illumi) she was finally making her way about the mansion. She had just walked into the dinner room and pulled her glasses up in awe.]

This is fancy. What did I stumble upon, some sort of palace?

[She reached a table and picked up a glass flicking at it just to make sure she wasn't dreaming all of this up. Luxuries like these were rare if not non-existent in her world. She took a seat bouncing on the cushioned chair just for the hell of it. This definitely was a new standard for her. She picked up a glass and examined it, tapping it with her nail curiously.]

Too bad this place seems to be abandoned, I could really use a glass of wate-

[Just like that, the glass began to fill forcing the girl out of the chair and the glass out of her hand. It landed on the floor with a loud crash.]

Did that thing just...

[She moved to the table picking up another glass. Again, it filled up with water. She didn't drop it this time and instead brought it slowly to her nose. It smelled like water. She peered through the glass at that clear liquid. It looked like water. She slowly brought it to her lips and took a sip.]

It is water. [What the hell is going on here.] Where is it coming from?!

[Guess who is going to get all the glasses in the room filled with water at this rate...]

I wouldn't rule that out. [If possibilities are endless, everything is possible. Lightning crosses her arms over her chest.] Keep working on the defenses and we will get closer.

I'll do my best.

... [She blinks at the enthusiasm, surprised.] I can't ask for more.

[Get used to it she is a ball of optimism.] You could always help. Maybe if we get to know each other you won't be angry with me at times?

You want to know me? [Those words are foreign to her. The supreme soldier looks downright innocent for a split second, blue eyes wide. Then she gets control of herself.] We have time.

[She noticed that.] You're not used to people are you? [Don't worry. She was used to this sort of company.] I don't bite. Unless you want me to.

Not anymore. [She snorts.] I don't find any pleasure in pain. I'd rather alleviate it.

Then a few drinks and some warm hugs should do the trick. Maybe. I have become a little out of touch with the social norms myself.

The drinks won't work on me and I don't hug strangers. [It's strange. She isn't even sure she can feel the emotion needed to want to hug someone anymore.] But it's not a bad start.

Save violence for our captors.

What? [Whoa, what? Did she hear her right?]

What do you mean drinks won't work? Does alcohol make you sick?

It doesn't effect me. [Being half a deity has a downside.] I told you I'm not quite human anymore.

Right. I'm not quite used to people being extraordinary. It's a real shame you can't enjoy a drink. I'll make sure to drink twice as much in your honor.

[Whoa. Is this a smile? Yes, it is.]

Don't make yourself sick. I'll survive without alcohol.

[This woman reminds her a little of a certain woman from Oerba (Gran Pulse). It's painful and nice.]

Sick? Getting drunk isn't a disease. Sure, it gives you one hell of a headache and you never want to do anything the next day but it's definitely worth it. Sometimes.

[What an accomplishment. Not even trying and she's all ready making you smile.]

Only a headache? [And here she thought the highlight of drinking too much was throwing up excessively.] I get the feeling your tolerance is high.

[Hange can hold her liquor. She hasn't thrown up yet. Just... slept and lost track of her clothes. But that's not bad, right?]

Higher than most. It comes with the job to be exposed to it.

[Sometimes drinking away the deaths of your friends always work.]

[She tried her best to abstain as a human - merely because she knew she needed to be on her guard 24/7 for Serah's sake. It would've been selfish to let herself become drunk.

Though there were nights she wanted it.]

Losses come with the job. Knowing that doesn't make them easier.

[Now she has lost everyone. And she can't get drunk.

It's ironic in a way she doesn't care for in the least.]

It's complicated to explain but we all find our way through hard times. If not for our sake, for the sake of the rest.

Are there soldiers here who follow your orders? [She envies that if it's the case.] Stay in one piece for them.

Wonderland has graced me with some of my comrades from home, yes. As their commander it is my duty to protect them and to help them protect others. That includes you in process.
