Who: Krista Kingsley
Broadcast: Open!
Action: Marsiva only.
When: Space time. Who knows.

[so the video turns on to show an... annoyed-looking teenage girl. long, black hair. lots of eyeshadow. she clears her throat, but that does absolutely nothing to stop her from talking in a quiet whisper the whole time. at least she seems to know how to talk to a camera.]

Okay, so. Uh. Hi.

I assume there's a bunch of people on the other end of this? Otherwise I'm going to look stupid talking to a screen, but... Whatever. I'm in space. I know guys back home that would kill for the chance to be kidnapped and held for entertainment on a creepy space station. I'm... Wait, hang on, let me see if I care.

[she looks elsewhere for a moment, lips pressing into a thin line, before...]

Nope. I don't care. Almost did, for a minute, and then I remembered how much this sucks.

[she gestures... vaguely.] Okay, so this is turning into a pretty bad introduction, but I guess I just wanted to say, uh, hello, I'm Krista, and I'd love to talk to someone... about... how we're all stuck here up in space? Unless there's something way better to talk about. I don't know. Whatever. I'm really bad at this.

[of course, anyone who is on the Marsiva is welcome to find her! she's just standing around one of the network panels, looking annoyed, maybe a little nervous. kind of fidgety.]

[ HEY PRETTY LADY remember this dork... He is totally taking this as a chance to make a good impression with a pretty girl 8> ]

Hey! Don't worry about the space so much, the ships are locked up tight so you won't go flying out into it or anything. I'm Sam! Nice to meet ya.

[this pretty girl squints at him for a moment, trying to place him... was she someone she met at Accord? or, wait, maybe in the dreaming...?]

Sam... Aren't you the guy with no pants?

[sugoooi]

[ ..................sdjkgs ]

They brought me here in my pyjamas! It's not my fault...!

[ This went downhill fast, this is like a record or something. ]

[ladiesss]

What? So it is you? [a weird pause...] Have I met you before?

[sugoooi]

Wait...huh?? What are you talking about? [ He's pretty sure he would remember meeting such a pretty girl?? ]

[ladiesss]

No? Maybe it was a dream...

[she flat-out scratches her head. but she could have swore... this kid...]

[sugoooi]

I, I was in your dream??? [ WHOA is she hitting on him holy moley, gosh, he didn't expect this development--it's a little cheesy, but he's down with it. ]

[he squints at the screen for a minute... before sitting back again and just laaaughing...]

1/2

[ladiesss]

[what... in the nine hells is...]

[ladiesss]

Oh.

[wait, nevermind.]

It's you.

[heresyandlace]

Wow... I didn't know you liked me that much.

This following me around thing is beginning to look suspicious, you know.

[ladiesss]

Ugh, don't flatter yourself. You're the one that keeps showing up everywhere I go.

Are you a clone? Is there just a copy of you in every universe, or what?

[heresyandlace]

Oh, please. There's only one of me.

...And, no sand this time? Your last entrance was better.

[ladiesss]

Oh, there was sand. Want to hear something mildly creepy?

[heresyandlace]

Always.

action because hello marsiva

[rebella]

I don't know if I'd be any better at an introduction when so poorly grounded, so you're probably doing just fine.

( Speaking up from behind Krista and to the side, Ella holds up one hand in a still hey there sort of gesture.

She's dressed in a well worn and mended dress with a fairly simple feel to it, styled like something vaguely out of Europe from 1200 to 1700 dear lords why, hasn't even spoken to the network directly yet, mostly because she can't decide on how to address everyone there. That, and she keeps being distracted be a) space, b) mostly the one large circular room they're all in, c) showers, which while she understands them, doesn't make them any less wonderful since it means so much less carting of water around, and d) er... just about everything else. Trying to figure out how to make the odd food more palatable. It's... different. )

You said your name is Krista? I'm Ella.

the best action there ever was!

[ladiesss]

Oh...!

[she looks a little surprised when someone starts talking to her, and takes a second to notice the really old dress (is she sure she's not just stuck somewhere in the dreaming?)... but Ella looks mostly harmless and is the first girl she's seen in a while. so, she manages a smile and a little wave back! unfortunately, she still can't raise her voice above a whisper...]

Hi, Ella. It's, uh, nice to meet you? I think? I mean--it is, I'm just...

[oooh, boy. come on, Krista. get it together. an awkward laugh...]

This whole thing is really weird...

[rebella]

( Is she supposed to whisper? Maybe. Maybe she's supposed to whisper... Ella's own voice drops down in volume, though she feels a bit more like they're conspiring than they're... anything else. )

I understand what you mean. About it being really strange. I wouldn't have ever imagined anything like it before - I'm a little adrift in it all.

( She offers a small smile, this one hinting toward more amused. )

It's nice meeting you too. Circumstances aside, of course.

[ladiesss]

[oh... why is she whispering? is someone listening in on them? she looks around a little, confused...]

Where are you from? If you don't mind me asking. Your dress reminds me of some... people I've met before.

[alwayscomeback]

[Such apathy.]

...You're not related to a girl named Mai by any chance, are you?

Video

[ladiesss]

Huh? [she tilts her head a little, wondering where such a... weird question would come from.] Uh... I've got a sister named Mary, but that's not the same thing. I don't think so.

[alwayscomeback]

It was a long shot.

Welcome to space, I guess.

[ladiesss]

Thanks... I guess. [an awkward pause.] Where are you from? Your hair's cool.

[alwayscomeback]

[She earns instant cool points.]

Thank you, it's a warriors wolf tail. I'm from the Southern Water Tribe. [A pause, because, oh yeah, different worlds.] That's in the South Pole.

[ladiesss]

Oh, I know what the South Pole is. Ice and penguins and stuff.

[she kind of doubts that he's from her Earth, but hey! she seems genuinely interested anyway C:]

"Warriors wolf tail" even sounds cool. What's your tribe like?
