[The realization that he was in the elevator came when the doors opened and bright light poured into the small cubical. A soft hum brought him out of the hypnotic trance of his own heartbeat.

[Betsy was still a bit leery about this place, thus she hadn't ventured far from the Main Office. But imagine her surprise when a child stepped through the elevators.

She cocked a brow at the little boy and gave a somewhat quirky smile.]

[Yamato turns to the voice, his eyes trailing her face, then down her body. She wasn't anyone he recognized, and he focused back on her face. His face was a bit pale and he swallowed.]

O..h. No, it's not.. Oz..

[Nor was it anything he knew, except the smell, and the trees he could see outside. Those things, they weren't foreign, just everything else. He knew he wasn't home.]

I guess this is going to sound dumb, I'm... not dead am I?

No, you're not dead. Unless the universe has gone to a further Hell in a handbasket.

[She speaks with a clipped "British" accent, but her tone is far from cool; in deference to the child, Betsy keeps it light and somewhat calm.]

[Yamato blinks to her words, moving from her eyes to her mouth. Helping to visualize what she was saying. The words coming to small images in his mind. The universe, and Hell with a pretty ribbon into a bow on the handle of the basket.

Bad visuals and he bows his head.]

Coffee, I bet you wouldn't have gone down stairs for it if you knew you'd end up here..

[He empathizes with the woman and lifts his face to show her a small, and hopefully convincing smile.]

I.. just kind of felt like asking that, like I had to. Sorry, um.. I'm Yamato Ishida.

No, I haven't. What about you?
