Mars was a new one for Alice. She'd met a lot of different types since arriving in Test City. No one had ever told her they were literally a Martian before. It made her smile to think of what Carlos would say once she told him about it. They had some shared memories between the two of them which weren't all death and destruction. Cartoons were one of those things. Alice remembered little of her life before Umbrella, but she remembered a childhood from time to time. Hers had been ordinary if her memories weren't all lies constructed by Umbrella's engineers. Stranger things had happened to her. They'd brought her back from the dead. After that? Not a lot felt impossible.
"I'm from a variation of Earth. You sound as if you're from a more advanced future or simply a more advanced Earth. My world was ruined by the corporation I worked for---they created a virus which they wanted to use to make supersoldiers with among other things. I'm the only successful bonding they ever had. The T-Virus wiped out the majority of our world's population. There's little left to the world I come from except the dead, dying, or depressed."
Alice shrugged a shoulder. She didn't know what else to say about her world. How was she supposed to recount her life to a stranger who had a degree she couldn't even think of a use for in her own home? All she knew was Dr. Grimm was likely to be safe for her to be around. This woman didn't seem the type to want to turn her into a science project for grins and giggles. Alice was more relaxed immediately upon realizing that much. All she wanted was to feel normal for a while. Even if she wasn't normal, she could pretend. No one was hurt by the pretense. She served the city well in her job. She worked hard and gave all she had to give. If she wanted to play house with a good man in her off-hours, it was no one's business but theirs.
"Twins are rare. I don't envy you how much you must miss yours. I doubt your parents would want either of you to blame yourselves for the accident. It was an accident. I wasn't there, but I know that for fact. In hopes of lightening the mood a little, you are officially my very first Martian."
