Company housing actually isn't so much a guarantee in Mikumo's world - the "dorms" for Delta Flight aren't even on the Macross Elysion - so her brows do arch slightly at that, but she puts it away for the moment in favour of her own situation.

"I'm the lead singer of Walkure, a tactical sound unit deployed to deal with outbreaks of Var Syndrome. To put it simply, it's a sudden-onset condition that drives large numbers of people into mindless violence."
