( if the following looks unusually polished (and with less creative license in the usage of which words will get her point across) in comparison with how anya usually types, there's a strong likelihood hers was not the only hand involved in putting it together. she isn't, as will become clear, entirely too proud to ask for help.

not entirely. and she may, simply, have got as far as she's going to get on her own. )

Zion,

I am seeking assistance in ongoing acclimatization. I would like to improve my English language skills and further my education in medicine, and become more comfortable with current technology. I am a quick and dedicated student. I have previously worked with the historians here and have very limited experience of working as a trainee operative for the ZDG where I trained to be a matrix operative specifically. I currently work in childcare for military children, mainly the very small.

I am happy to offer any of my skills that interest you in return for your time and your patience. I am an excellent seamstress as well as experienced with children and midwifery and I am literate and fluent in several additional languages if your academic interests lie this way. I have combat background and can teach self-defense, particularly for those who are smaller and not reliant on brute force. Teaching my muscles to respond as my mind expects them to has been a personal goal that I am pleased to assure you I have achieved, and my skills are not abstract memories but concrete things to be practically applied.

Thank you,

Anya Matveyevna.

Kate is leaned against a railing down at the dock, image carefully framed so she's visible from the shoulders up but off center, the better to show the bulk of a ship behind her. She smiles, polite but warm, a trace of genuine excitement in it she's not bothering to hide. ]
