Boredom breeds bravery.
She'd been there a couple days now, tucked away in 'her room'. Food had been brought for her and Andrea-robot and touchy-Vincent had both tried to engage her in conversation, but she had nothing to talk about. All she wanted to know was when she'd be able to leave and why they kept saying she was related to someone she wasn't. They'd also told her she was free to 'move about the building' as she wanted, something she wasn't so sure about.

But, after the second day in the room, she'd gotten curious. Opening the door, she waited for alarms to sound, or feet to come rushing to put her back in. Nothing. Peeking her head around the frame, she saw no one, heard no one. Which made her a little braver; pushing the door flat open and standing there expectantly. Nope. Nothing. Well. We'd see about that. Taking a decisive step out of the room, she stuck her chin out, picking a direction to at random and marching down it.

She came to a room, one with couches and wide glass windows. Going over to one of the windows, she stood with her hands pressed against it, looking out at the city below her. So busy, like little ants. With the insulation of the building she couldn't hear the cacophony below, but she remembered it from her brief flight over. Busy, loud and chaotic. There didn't seem to be any order or regulations to anything they did. It was somewhat frightening, but also something that piqued her curiosity; nudging at memories long buried and locked away.

"Jeans, perhaps, then? And I have several nice shirts as well that might fit you..."

She'd seen what Andrea wore, unsure if she'd want to wear anything similar. It seemed so... flimsy. "T-shirt?"

"I have many of those as well," Andrea agree. "Many with comical sayings and pictures printed on them!"

Evie shook her head slowly. No, she'd be just fine with a plain t-shirt, thank you, smiley robot. "We can go outside now?"

Andrea smiled. "I believe we can go as soon as you change."

Shoving the last bite of pancake in her mouth, Evie put the plate in the sink and held out her hands. "Clothes please."

Andrea led Evie to her suite, where the shelves were full of carefully arranged and much careworn Hummel figurines and toys from Happy Meals and other fast food give-aways.

Andrea carefully selected a plain t-shirt and a pair of jeans from her closet for Evie. "Hmm. I am not sure about shoes..."

Evie noticed the figurines in passing, but didn't pay much in the way of attention to them. "I have shoes." Which was very true. She had the slip-on shoes the institution had given her. Why would she need other ones?

Andrea nodded. "I believe they will do then," she said. "I will wait outside while you change."

Waiting until Andrea left, Evie quickly shimmied out of her pants and shirt, slipping on the jeans and tshirt, glaring down at the tight fit. Andrea needed bigger shirts. This was... confining. Shrugging, she bundled up her clothes and opened the door. "Ready."

Andrea nodded. "Good."

She titled her head just slightly, tapping into the building's comm system. "Vincent, we are ready to go."

"I'll meet you in the lobby." Vincent had slipped on a set of warmer clothes himself. He still got annoyed with being subject to things like temperature, but expanding his wardrobe had been enjoyable enough.

"I found out there's an Ultimate Frisbee tournament going on near the Great Hill today. Should be good people-watching."

"Frisbee?" She'd never heard of that, ultimate or otherwise. Perhaps it would be like some of the fighting matches the guards had between inmates. Evie was suddenly reluctant to go. She didn't want to watch people fighting while a circle of screaming people cheered them on.

Andrea was largely immune to temperatures, though she tended to dress according to the weather around others so as not to attract attention. But today was fine enough for her.

She walked with Evie toward the lobby. "A game played by means of tossing a smallish disk around," she explained.

"It's rather informal, but has a large enough following. Frisbees are very fun to play with." Vincent reassures Evie as he joins the ladies.

"Allow me." He flicks his wrist to and fro in a certain way, murmuring a few words, and a portal opens up in front of them. "Next stop, Central Park."

People throwing around a plastic disc didn't sound the slightest bit entertaining to her, but she'd found that what people liked to do for fun seemed to vary from boring to weird. Her brow raised at the suddenly appearing portal, wondering what she was supposed to do. She figured she'd watch if Andrea-robot did anything, then emulate her.

It was not that far a walk, Andrea reflected to herself. But ah well.

"Just step through. It is perfectly safe." To demonstrate, she walked through the portal.

"Not that my own skills are inconsiderable, I have friends in high places that enable such conveniences." Vincent smirks, offering Evie his hand for them to walk through.

Giving him a wary look, she steps around the hand and through the portal. Touchy-Vincent was... touchy. Or trying to be. Evie wasn't a fan of anything physical, since it generally related to pain.

Coming through the portal, she blinked, then looked around for Andrea.

Andrea was waiting for them on the other side, watching the portal to make sure they had made it through all right.

"See?" she asked. "Quite harmless."

Vincent follows behind Evie and then dismisses the portal. "And very well-executed, if I may say so." He looks around to get his bearings, then points towards a field. "It looks like the tournament already started."

She may not be used to the mode of transport, but she could see how it could come in handy. Much less taxing than walking or flying, but... she always did like the feel of the wind in her hair.

Taking a moment to enjoy just being outside, she let her gaze drift around, looking over to where Vincent pointed.

Andrea adjusted her optical settings, peering far ahead. If you were to watch her eyes very very closely, you might see little lenses adjusting themselves.

"I believe you are correct," she said.

They find a comfortable place to sit and observe for a bit. Vincent turns to Evie. "Would you like to try playing with one? It's just throwing and catching."

"Why?" She couldn't figure out why everyone was throwing a disk back and forth between themselves. She couldn't see what purpose it filled.
