[Hibiki's Marvelous Misadventures indeed... At least she managed to make it up to the poor Lodge employee who had been upset about the snow!! All's well that ends well.

Which is to say that no one was hurt, Maria is fine, and Hibiki's quick-actions did more good than harm in the end. Maria smiles, looking apologetic as she closes the book she was reading and sets it aside on the bed. She still looks a little pale, but that's pretty much her complexion overall in most cases - she needs more time to adjust to fill out and feel better.]

Yes, I'm much better now, thanks to you and everyone else. I'm...sorry for putting you in such a situation, that was careless of me. It was much too cold outside to be doing that kind of work, and I knew that, but...I still overdid it.

Thank you for looking out for me. [And she does mean all of that sincerely, shifting in bed to maybe try and move, but...thinks against it. Heaven forbid her knees give out and she falls over or something. It's happened before! Maria opts to just stay put.] Well...let's start again, properly this time. I'm Maria Robotnik - it's very nice to meet you.
