What does tomorrow bring?

Woman

Elm's foot was thumping against the floor as he ate his breakfast. Fully refreshed from yesterday he was trying to come up with a plan on how to tackle everything. He would need to get some more watchful eyes on GLaDOS or something. If she were even to begin to do something it would go from her in a house with them to them in a house with her. Then there was Vanny where his best guesses led him to think maybe he should keep her away from anything dangerous. Well then again anything could be dangerous if you tried hard enough he supposed to himself.

The doorbell rang breaking Elm's concentration. Going to get the door open he saw another big capsule floating in the doorway. Like last time it slid right in and he saw what looked like the drone he saw last time, but that couldn't be the case. Its face turned into a mad one as it locked eyes with him. It was.

In a huff, the drone did the same dance as last time, with the whole information thing and dragging the capsule out of the home. It didn't ask for a tip this time though, just slamming the door behind it. Looking back in the RealDreams app it said that it was Vanessa, he supposed it must switch when one is in control. He also allowed her to just wake up naturally.

He had set Vanessa on the couch and waited for her to wake up. While waiting he found himself watching her slowly breathing in and out, having his own breath starting to match the pace. Vanessa shouldn't be too bad. She probably would just react like Hinata somewhat, but there should be no major troubles with her. He could be a bit calmer with this introduction. She woke up slowly coming to her senses.

"Where am I," she grumbled to herself looking around not panicked at all. She honestly seemed more annoyed than anything sitting herself up. She then looked at Elm and said, "I know I probably shouldn't be asking because I already should know this but where am I?"

"You're in my house," Elm told her taken by the reaction. Why was she calm about all this? She just woke up in a strange place after who knows where she had been. She wasn't even surprised. She nodded thoughtfully obviously coming to ask another question.

"Why am I here," She asked.

"You see I bought you and now I kind of own you. You can't go back to your home either," he tried to explain quickly with his limited knowledge. Her eyes went wide at this information but didn't try to protest anything.

"Uh, I guess he wasn't kidding with that threat," she said to herself. She wasn't freaking out. She was at most indifferent but not perturbed by any of the information. Well, this was going well. She then leaned back into the couch and said, "So what did you buy me for anyways?"

"Well, that's not something you need to worry about right now," Elm began and she rolled her eyes. "Okay how about we get you situated in your new room? Zelda!" After a few second Zelda came from some off room and looked over at Vanessa. Vanessa in turn looked at Zelda but with wide freaked out eyes.

"Wait, wait, wait. Your Zelda from Breath of the Wild. Like exactly out of the game," she said now standing up, and then she pointed a finger at Elm. "So you actually look like that? No. No. I know an illusion when I see one. This is one of them. Real funny. Actually even funnier the third time around." She directed the last two comments to the ceiling and Zelda looked at Elm. He shrugged it off not sure what to say about that. Zelda proceed to lead Vanessa to a room, while he carried the luggage. Vanessa immediately flopped herself onto the bed as they left.

"So you into blondes or what," Zelda asked him as they left Vanessa in her room for the time being. Elm for caution decided to lock the door. She shouldn't really have much to mess around with in there if she became Vanny, all she would have was her suit.

"What," Elm asked a little confused for a second half paying attention. "No, not particularly."

"So you just so happen to have two of your first three girls being blonde," she said jestingly.

"Yes, I guess so," Elm laughed. "Talking about girls how has GLaDOS been? Has she caused any trouble yet?"

"No, once I got her in her room she just stayed in there. When I went in there this morning she was messing with some bits and bobs from the boxes but nothing seemed too dangerous," Zelda explained to him.

"How about Hinata?"

"She's getting better. She opened up to me yesterday. I think you could try and at least try to make a connection between you two if you want. I do think it might help her." Elm thought about the idea. Vanessa was taking this better than he thought mostly, plus she was now locked in her room for the time being. GLaDOS well, he should check in on GLaDOS. But maybe he did have enough time to try and make a connection with Hinata.

GLaDOS or Hinata first?
