Vlad? Vlad! VLAD!

[M.S. Elegante, meet Dimitri. He just jumped out of a demonic train.]

We don't get many Russians.

[Kusanagi's Russian is creepily flawless, since she's running a program for it. 'Creepily flawless' c. 2030, so it'll probably sound odd to Dmitri.]

What about Vl- the people I was with? They're here too, right?

Norse, huh? I thought that was a dead language.
