As mentioned in the last post, Envoys are extremely valuable assets to the organisations they belong to, so very often, they enjoy elevated status and special privileges that are otherwise offered to much higher-ranking members of those institutions. UDD operates several training facilities around Nusisring, Nana's position in UDD should theoretically grant her access to the most well-furbished living quarters in any of those locations, but in reality, she spends most of her off-time inside a very small container home.

When asked about it she'll usually brush it off saying it's just a lifestyle choice: maintaining good etiquette during working hours is exhausting enough for her, so a more casual way of life is what she prefers when she's off-duty. A good enough answer to satisfy most people so she doesn't need to explain everything every time someone asks.

In most UDD facilities the living quarters are in the so-called "Green Zone", separate and away from the "Red Zone" where the shooting range and the armouries are usually in. Weapons, more specifically Nana's guns, are not supposed to leave the Red Zone. Technically if an Envoy insists (by exercising their authorities granted by Blue Heaven) it is not impossible, but the amount of paperwork required afterwards is like torture for lazy people like Nana, so instead of trying to bring her guns out of the Red Zone every time she wanted them in her room, she opted to move her room into the Red Zone instead.

Furthermore, Nana's role requires her to frequently move between different sites and sometimes stay at a location for an extended amount of time, so the mobile nature of the container home also saved her from the hassle of packing and unpacking her clothes (which there aren't a lot of) and her guns and tools (which there are a lot of) every time she moves. When moving into a new facility she'd normally place her container home right next to where she works, so the distance of her daily commute is usually measured in centimetres.
