[It's okay; Vanille understands the need for privacy. She has secrets of her own, after all, things she has carried close to her chest and guarded with false smiles and insincere laughter while fear bubbles in her gut and guilt chokes her every breath. She has pledged herself to the bravery of truth since, has come clean about her lies and deceptions to those that matter... but they will never be things she speaks freely of with strangers, will never be things that do not weigh heavy on her mind, no matter how many amends she makes, no matter how many sacrifices.

In this new world where Vanille feels so very lost and alone, she is reverting back a little to that shallow, dishonest exuberance that got her through those first several days upon waking on Cocoon.

But her friendliness is true; she is a social person with a big heart, putting others before herself at every turn, and she would rather be together with a stranger engaging in smalltalk than staring up at the stark blackness of space and worrying about things out of her control.

So she pushes any dark thoughts to the back of her mind and laughs lightly, looking down at her outfit. This is not the first time she's woken in a strange place in wholly inappropriate attire.]
It's pretty strange for me, too! But I wonder... if anyone is ever really prepared for something like this.
