"Thanks." It's either look at the positive side or worry herself crazy over what could go wrong. Not that she can't do both, Adia is an expert multitasker when it comes to her emotions. "I feel... not great about potentially bringing a way to the thirteenth tribe, but they're our last hope. The Sacred Scrolls describe Earth as a utopia of science and philosophy. That's probably an exaggeration -- but they have at least several decades on the rest of the colonies in terms of technology. They could have the solution."

Something in her pocket makes a quiet ding. She digs out a small electronic device and frowns at it softly. "Oh... I need to go." She gives him another smile. "It was very nice to meet you, Jim. Sorry for the earlier confusion... if, um, I mistake you for the other Jim the next time we meet, please don't hold it against me." They really do look identical, and despite dealing with clones on her world, she's not confident that she'll ever be able to tell the two apart at first glance.
