I don't mind working to support myself, either, but my skill set is kind of... the things I do at home wouldn't work here." She uses her wrist to push her glasses back up to the bridge of her nose. "I guess it's taken me a few weeks to accept I'm not just going back home, so."

She isn't sure why she's telling Herian all this. Probably just because the other woman seems genuinely interested.
