Who: Cress
Broadcast: Video
Action: around Marsiva's hospitality deck
When: a day or two after the initial intro/arrivals
[ of course, for cress, the first few hours after waking up (after the initial oh my gosh what is happening where am i is this real life) had been spent poking around the curious little communicator they'd all been given. the type isn't something she's familiar with, but it's neither too archaic nor too advanced. it's strangely familiar enough that it doesn't take her very long to figure it out, inner workings and all, though it's tough to say how much of that is her natural skill and how much of that is thanks to the handy little communications augment currently nestled behind her left ear.
the point is that she'd snooped, which means she may or may not have heard all of your previous conversations. oops!
but anyway. sometime after that, cress will finally turn on the video function of her comm. she holds it at arm's length as she aimlessly wanders around the deck of marsiva, so her background may actually be quite familiar to most. she makes quite the sight — long, unruly mess of blond hair, large blue eyes, and a dress that is a touch too small with a few singe marks here and there. when she finally addresses the network, her eyes are wide wonder. ]
What did she mean "the worlds are watching"...?

I should have known reality television would turn around and bite me in the arse eventually.

—we're reality television stars?!
[ she's heard about these, of course. earthen entertainment was all about this, back in the day. she's never seen one herself, but she knows enough to know how they work. the idea that she's suddenly one of those people is...
actually kind of frightening.
luckily, she's still too shocked to get caught up in that. ]

From what I can gather.
Except we're in space.

This is... This is great. [ hasn't she always daydreamed of becoming an actress? (among a large number of other things.)
except wait, that's not necessarily what this is, isn't it? ]
But — why us? Why me?

If you want existential questions answered, you're talking to the wrong person.
