"When Antero returns I will ask him if he has any friends in the city. He might be a help."

"Hello, I'm still in here and I'm getting kind of hungry. I don't mean to complain, but could I at least get some food?" Grey calls out to his captors. There is no response. He starts to feel a little disheartened. He wonders what they intend to do with him. He has never been in a dangerous situation before and really doesn't know what to do or think.

When Nea hears Salome mention Antero she almost chokes but hides it. "Ok." Nea quickly decided that Antero MUST have some friends and one of them would be willing to let her stay there.

Antero arrives back from delivering the pizzas. He got a nice tip which put him in a good mood. He gets back to work patching up the broken window.
"You know another reason I work here is because if I got an office job or another job I couldn't have blue hair. Doesn't that suck about work? There's too much conformity in the world."

"I like wearing my brown factory jump suit. I don't mind conformity at the work place. It makes me feel as one with the other workers." I reply to Antero.
"By the way Antero, do you have any friends that Nea can stay with? She wants to live in Helsinki for a while."

Antero turns to Salome before getting large sheets of plaster board to board the window with. "Yeah, well, you're just different Salome. I don't want to lose my identity and become a drone in the work force." He then turns to Nea. "I'll talk to my friends and see what happens. We can figure something out."

"Exactly. I like being unique, standing out from the crowd and saying I'm not like anybody I know. Thanks Antero." Nea starts to blush a little bit, so she lowers her head a little bit to hide it.

"I'm glad you agree. I think that's the worst thing about a job is having to look like everyone else or wear a uniform."

"I've had a couple jobs like that, but I always tried to do something that made me stand out a little more. Jewelry or maybe different laces." Nea laughed. She stuck her foot from underneath the table. "Like my bright orange laces?"
((ok peeps gotta check out might be back later))

All of my life I have felt that I was alone, but that I wanted to be like everyone else. I have always wanted to belong.
I can not relate to Antero's feelings of wanting to be different. I just want to fit in and be a part of a group. There is a beautiful thing about group identity. I want it. It is one of the many things I am waiting for.
I stay quiet and eat my pizza.

(Bye, see you later.) "Oh those are pretty cool." He says, looking down at her laces. He notices that Salome is suddenly quiet but doesn't think much of it.

Heikki enters the pizza place and sits down at the table next to Salome. He turns to the anarchists and announces to them:
"I have found a new liberation from food. I no longer feel hunger or any attachment to any food or flavor. So from now on I am going to eat oatmeal and vitamins."

"Good for you Heikki, just be careful that you don't get sick." I say in a mothering tone.
"Food is interesting. I have some issues with food myself."

"What kind of issues with food do you have, Salome?"

"Like you, I find that I don't desire to eat either. Or, I actually to love to eat, but I am more in love with the feeling of hunger. When we are hungering for something our senses are more alive. Our vision and hearing are better because our body is focused on finding food. It is an evolutionary response to hunger. You should try it sometime. Fast for a day and see how much keener your senses are."
