She's starting to notice Blaise is struggling to keep up, and she eases up a little bit. In the meantime, she laughs lightly at the questions. "It's nothing so fantastic. How should I put this... ah. Remember Raquel? He's an important friend to me now, but... in some other place, he was the partner of a girl a little younger than me. Rikka was strong, and wise, and her heart was always in the right place." She's a little wistful as the memories come back to her, everything she knows about Rikka rising to the front. "And I'm her successor, if you will. I am myself, but... I am also the reincarnation of Rikka Hishikawa. And you should be the same way."

Not that any of this makes sense to explain out of the blue, but... it's what she's got. And it's Blaise's reality, now. "The Numbered are all of us that are linked like this, to other people in distant places. When we get our first pulse, our first thing back, we also get back a string of numbers - a network number. You already have my Number; it's in your phone. I'll explain the rest later, but - if you're in danger, dial your Number, then mine. It'll put you through to both me and Summer."

...And now to see if any of that made it through without confusing the poor boy too badly.
