>>19455384>[As the video plays, Sola mumbles almost to herself.]"Nikki is out of the Mansion...?"
>[It's a... strange feeling. Just recently she had told Priscilla to her face that this day might have been coming. Seeing Nikki like this, in a new house -- Sola's is better, whatever -- but, happy? Thriving? It makes Sola mad.]"I've seen what you can do with a live mic. I can't wait."
>>19458537>[As Carmody is on her phone, Sola's pings, and a smile breaks out on her face. Maybe Paule is going to invite Sola to get ice cream. Or Priscilla for that training session. Or -- Ash. Huh.]hey yeh that wood be grate

>[Sola puts her phone down and resumes eye contact. Her dad would be on her in a second if he knew she was texting in company.]"Welding and plumbing? Cool! My dad is a bricklayer -- would you believe his name is Mason, too? He always wanted me to do what he did. Oh, hey, if you ever need a brick wall, I'm ya gal! You know, between the two of us we could build a house. Or... a toilet block, maybe? Ha-ha-ha."
"Yeah, I met Sheila a little while ago. There's a woman, Cassie Kade -- oh, uh, Nikki's sister, I guess. The one you just saw. She really hurt me early on, and we had a whole thing over it... um, but Sheila helped me a lot. She really kicked the butt of that guy who was following me around. Oh. OH. Hey Bree... sounds like you have a bit of a crush on Sheila! O-M-G you do! Ahhh, you do!"
>[Sola teases for a bit. The wine is making her silly. Carmody's reaction to Bree's unfinished sentence is weird, but somehow exciting. Sola tries to save Carmody some embarrassment.]"Ah, I bought one of these PlayBoxes a few months ago to try and connect with Nika... didn't work? Ah, whatever. Gosh, I wasted a lot of time on her. No more. Let's look to the future -- like that lasagna!"
"Oh, Cactus. Ha-ha-ha, there's someone else I kinda know. We were a tag team for a little while!"
