[There's just something about seeing the Lifestream again that does her in. She's only been here a few weeks, but they've been a strange few weeks. On her own planet, the Lifestream had been there her entire life. The joined voices of everyone that had ever lived, talking to her when she had no one else. Her mother's voice in the church. It's so quiet here.
Rick said he'd been here eight months, someone else told her ten, and it seemed like everyone just accepted this as their new life now. Maybe she'll get there one day, but right now, it's still raw.
So Aerith just smiles at Kaneda, though her cheeks are a bit flushed and maybe her eyes are a little watery.]
Thank you.
[She looks away quickly, pulling out her wallet to pay him.]
