A Couple of Notes

Who: Zania
Where: Her room
When: Morning

Zania was not in the habit of checking her computer when she woke in the morning, even if a little red light was flashing on the monitor. Instead, she stepped out her door with intent to go down for breakfast. With her box in the way, that hindered her exit, giving her pause as she stopped to read the note left behind. "It's silly to be depressed by it. One thinks of being alive in a box. One keeps forgetting to take into account that one is dead." Rolling her eyes, she stepped back in and shut the door, note clutched in her hand, but box still outside. She'd have to dispose of it later.

Now, though, she was interested in seeing what might be on the computer. She'd expected her secret admirer to reply on the journals. Instead, Dan had. With a little smile, she replied to him, then moved on to the new note in her inbox. It was not often that she received messages from the scientists, and this one she read over three times before opening the new program on her computer. Her eyes widened slightly and she began to watch.
