Mira listened to every word that Beth spoke, utterly engrossed in the story that she had told. It was strange, even though Beth only had four years on her, it felt like she was a whole lot older then that, perhaps because she had so much going on in her life whereas Mira had a much more simple and laid out thought process. She was never really torn between going to college and going into the MBF, she never really thought about much else other then the next step ahead of her, either. Here Beth was, talking about what she would do 10 years down the line, when Mira barely had the next few months laid out. Perhaps that was something she had to work on, something she had to think about more seriously.<br/>"You know what, it's funny, really... I've just never really seen myself doing anything else. I mean, sure, I suppose I could go to college and learn how to be an accountant, or a scientist, or whatever. But really, nothing else seemed to come to me as passionately as mechs did. When I got to high school and started taking basic shop classes, it just clicked, you know? Maybe it's got something to do with my family, I don't know, but I realized that this was my passion, so I just went for it."<br/><br/>She paused to scratch the side of her head with one of her hands, making sure to remain focused on the road regardless.<br/>"Sorry, that's not quite the complex tale you were hoping for, huh?"
