*When I arrive at my office in the Outpost, Cinderella is already there. She's sitting quietly, her head lightly shifts to my direction, showing a sign that she's acknowledged my presence.*

Cinderella: ...

Commander: ...

*As I greet her by waving my hand, she responds with a nod.*

Cinderella: ...

Commander: ...

*I pull my seat and begin the advising session. Cinderella's never spoken, she seems to favor the peaceful silence. I don't want to break the ice if that's how she feels.*

Cinderella: *Placing a finger on the lip*

Commander: ???

*A gesture indicating she wants me to speak up.*

Commander: Is there something you need?

Cinderella: *Nodding*

*To my surprise, her feet rise up for me to notice one of the slippers is missing.*

Commander: When?

Cinderella: *Shaking the head*

*I stand up and point at the door. Cinderella raises her eyebrows at my action.*

Commander: Let's go find it.

Cinderella: ...

*Beaming a smile on her face, Cinderella follows me on a hovering Glass Slipper. Later, we found her missing belonging.*
