Once the planning meeting is over and shes outside the room, Zelda take a breath of relief, she dislike these kind of meetings, feel like an oral exam at school and Broome is quite intimidating.
Zelda hardly spare a word for Emiko or Mikahil during the tour and once that is over, true to her words, she doesnt dine with the team, she does go back home and change clothes, picking something prettier and then move to the exit , aiming to try out one of the establishment they have seen during the tour.
Since she follow a diet she'll avoid junk food, not that she need a diet but Zelda, like many girls of her age, over-focus on appearance; gaining weight, in the wrong places, would be a tragedy. During her solo adventure she dedicate her attention to her smartphone, checking her social media, sending some messages and making calls.
Zelda call Jen, her friend, shes going to be a bit mad, should have called her after the battle instead a whole day has passed; sure, a lot of things happened in the last 24 hours and Zelda is overloaded but Jen deserve better
A long call, where Zelda describe the base without going into details, es. we have a nice park outside the house, theres a baker down the street etc. etc. The two girls will inevitably end up talking about the battle, since Oliver said they are allowed to talk about it during the interview it's safe to assume she can discuss this topic with her friend, she'll tell Jen that her Eva is the purple one and that the other two mechas are also piloted by girls. Zelda narrowly avoid correcting herself, she would define Emiko a thing, not a girl but that is the kind of information she isnt going to share with Jen.
She'll ask Jen how things are going in Plymouth and what are her plans....in the remote case Jen plans include visiting london around 20 October Zelda will subtly try to alter it, either by inviting her to come sooner or proposing a later date.
After Jen, she'll message her mom, telling her about the interview, admitting to be a bit nervous and asking for suggestions.
