Cute kid. She's really putting on a brave face, trying to be very grown up in this grown up situation. 

He blinks when he sees Sable's name registered in the database, and supresses a smile. Now that's a lucky break. Sable seems more or less on the up and up — if she'd wanted to keep the kid she could've just not brought her here, probably, though eventually the neighbours might talk — and the kid seems to be clinging to her pretty hard, so the placement seems obvious. It is a bend of the rules, but he doesn't see the harm in it. 

"Right through that door there," he says, pointing to an interview room. "I'll just be right back with the nurse."

Lillian goes through the door and into the interview room, trepidation in her heart. It's scary, being alone in a strange police station with no-one she knows in a world that seems much worse than her own. But she'll be brave. She's got to do this for Audrey and Foxbox. 

Moments later, the EMTs arrive, a stocky man with black hair and a slender ginger woman with a kind smile. "Hi there, sweetie. I'm EMT Joy, and this is my partner, EMT Corwin. We're going to check you over to make you're you're safe and healthy. How're you feeling right now?"

"I feel okay. A little scared but that's only 'cause I'm lost."

"That's good. Not hurt anywhere? No aches or stings or scrapes?"

She shakes her head. "No, none of those."

"Good. Okay, now my partner is going to check your blood pressure and heart rate while I ask you some questions, okay? You might need to slide your cute arm-warmers down a bit to get the cuff on, though."

EMT Corwin has gotten out a blood pressure cuff hooked up to a small machine, along with a few other sensors.

"Okay."

Actual medical devices she recognizes being employed helps, weirdly enough. It feels soothing.

She slides off her right armwarmer, stuffs it in her skirt pocket, and offers her arm. 

While EMT Corwin fastens the cuff around her arm and starts taking measurements, EMT Joy starts asking questions. "Thank you, sweetie. Can you tell me your name?"

"Audrey." That's the whole system's name so it's technically not even a lie.

"Thank you, Audrey. It's good to meet you. Do you know where we are right now?"

"We're in the city of San Fransisco, in California, in the United States of America. This is a police station, I don't know what the name of it is though. Miss Sable told me where I was on the way over, I don't recognize any of those names."

Okay, so the kid is honest to a fault, and doesn't recognize anything. She doesn't seem to be lying, either, there's no familiarity with any of those place names. That's some support for Elm's hippie commune theory.

"Good job. What day is it today?"

"March seventeeeeeenth?" Lillian stretches out the second word, suddenly unsure of the day Sable gave her. 

Joy frowns a bit but nods. It fits that she might not be sure, given what was said about her memories. "Can you remember how you got here?"

"Miss Sable drove me over and we listened to music in the car. It was really good too!"

"Oh? I'm glad you enjoyed that. And what about before that?"

"Before that she found me on the street outside her house. I hugged her because she looks a little like my auntie Hailey and I confused her for her. She helped me calm down, brought me inside, gave me juice and trail mix, and after I'd had my snack we came right over in the car. I don't know how I got on that street and don't recognize her neighbourhood."

All true statements! She is so good at this.

That explains some of the quick attachment, and the story checks out with what Ms. Miller told Elm. No obvious signs of lying, either.

"What's the last thing you remember before that?"

"Doing a test online at home. I passed it and I was going to tell my moms about it but I don't remember seeing them after that."

So they had the internet in their little commune? Interesting, but too surprising. Does suggest someone in the commune took the kid, though.

"Thank you, sweetie. That must've been scary, not knowing where you were. Can you tell me your parents' names?"

"Eva and Topaz!" She immediately brightens at the thought of them, despite the circumstances. "They're really really nice."

"Awww! I'm sure they are, and I'm sure they're very worried. Can you remember anything that might've happened to you, between taking your test and winding up on Miss Sable's street?"

"No, I'm sorry, it's a total blank. Kinda scary."

That reads as true too. Joy nods. "Yeah, I bet it is. Can you count to ten for me?"
