[clarke hasn't really known elena too long but she got a good enough first impression to find herself already liking the other girl. it takes her a moment to realize that elena was taking about her nametag since she was reading hers in turn.

she could probably relate to running the most because that was pretty much her life these day on the ground and well who doesn't want to drink really? sometimes she feels like she could really use one with how much she feels on edge about their current situation but she smiles slightly hearing her response] Yeah? I don't know too many people who share the hobby but it's not something I got the chance to do much of back home these days.

So you're a writer? [for the most part with other people she has made it a point not to inquire about the nametags on other people since it is a bit unsettling for her how much it knows about them but given they were going to be living together, it make sense to just get to know her better too and get more context behind the words]
