Who: anyone
Broadcast: video, fleet-wide
Action: First Breath
When: now!

[ The broadcast is short and to-the-point. Nova's not really one for belaboring something, but she's also bored and curious. For those who have met her before, she looks a little more well-rested than she has lately, her long hair in a neat braid ]

I know there are some people from Aather here, but I'm curious—I mean, if you want to talk about it—has anyone else had their memory... messed with? Taken away and given back? I guess you wouldn't know if it had just been taken away... Or, I don't know.

If you haven't had something like that, do you ever just get new information? I don't think I'm explaining this right.

[ she looks mildly annoyed and ends the video ]

Can you tell me more? How was it sort of taken away?

Well...it's supposed to be normal for what happened--I got bitten. And died a little.

Wait... what?

[ 404 error file not found ]

...I died a little? [ You can do it Katniss!! ]

How do you "die a little"?

You don't die for very long! Like, maybe half an hour.

In a game?

I don't think it was a game... I don't really remember though. It could have been.

What happened?

Well...I got bitten. That's all I really know! They were gone before I woke up, so I don't remember what they looked like.

...Got bitten by what?

....A vampire.

...Does that make you a vampire?

[ look, she's not totally biased but getting info has been difficult ]

If I say yes are you gonna hang up? [ Because of all things, that's what he's most concerned about. ]

No. Of course not.

[ why would you even worry about that ]

[ Because he is the loneliest person in the universe :c ]

Then...yes. I am a vampire.

You're not the first one I've met.

[ she says it flatly, but it really is her attempt to be comforting ]

What's your name?

Sascha--where did you meet the other ones?? [ He's perking right up at that tidbit of information, goodness. He thought he was the only one here! ]

I'm Nova.

And I didn't meet them here. I met them in Aather, the last place I lived before this.

Oh...where's that? Is that a different ship?

It's a different world altogether, I think.

A planet world? Or one of the extra ones?

I don't know... no one's ever really explained any of that to me. But I wasn't in the fleet at all when I was there.

Oh... Oh well. Welcome to this one!

Thanks. I've been here for awhile. What about you?
