[Well, they were a little limited on Lindas and Sharons here. And if someone better suited for him came along, she'd happily do what she could to get them together. There was a reason she hadn't tried back home. If he knew how she viewed herself, why she couldn't have that kind of relationship with him - he'd understand. She was tainted, going so far as to see herself as a monster thanks to past life choices... Some of which weren't her own.

He deserved a chance at happiness and a family. Someone who could give him a glimpse into normal. That girl wasn't her.

Raising up from her spot in the fridge, she gives a little sigh - closing the door before letting her hands move to rest on her hips.]

My ability to choose was pretty much taken away from me the moment I was dragged here. I'm not saying it needs to happen, I'm just saying it's an option. I'm willing to help out a friend when he's in need. Steve, I don't have the same reservations about sex as you and if it means I can bypass giving them a chance to experiment on me?

[She doesn't dwell on it, rather breaking her gaze him with him and lightening her tone as she looks back in cabinets she'd already searched.] And I was looking for some form of booze. I know it's a longshot, but I figured it'd be worth a try. Where's the nearest store?

[Because if they were gonna keep chatting, she was gonna need a drink.]
