Who: Nightingale and you!
Broadcast: Video and audio
Action: Iskaulit!
When: Now.

[When the video feed starts, it displays a large room inside the Iskaulit, covered in snow and... dog toys. A lot of them, actually. And there's a single fox romping around in the snow, as well.]

Hi, everyone. It's Nightingale. This post was just to say that the fox park on the Iskaulit is now finished and open for anyone to come let their foxes out to play, since they probably need to, and this is obviously not a good planet to bring pets to. On a related note, if I find out anyone's bringing their foxes down to poison planet down there, I'm going to punch you as hard as I can.

[The video then cuts out, without ever actually showing Nightingale, but the audio keeps going.]

... And on an unrelated note. Can anyone tell me about weird physical transformations happening here? Do those happen often? Are those related to our augments? And how long do they last?

[Nightingale. Kitty knows that name. Allen mentioned her. She's also totally pretending that the fox isn't extremely precious back there. She already had her adorable meltdown with Timcanpy. She has a reputation to maintain here. Okay, she doesn't actually care about her reputation, but still, priorities.]

Physical transformations? [Kitty hadn't noticed anything except with Kara having access to the yellow sun.] What's happening?

It's, um. Technically a transformation that's happened to me before, except last time it was a sort of a god trying to do terrible things to people, and this time it just sort of... happened?

[That is a useless explanation and not at all what Kitty was asking, and she knows it, but she's too awkward to explain it right.]

Did something happen?

Yes, but if I tell you, you're going to get pissed and start swearing again.

[Kitty understands strange and complicated. Home was far from normal and this isn't even her first multi-dimensional trap.] Okay.

Maybe there's something similar in the properties of this moon that was present in the god's power? Or have you seen the same thing happening to other people?

Or was this mostly fishing to see if it was just you?

No, poison was a different huge bitch, and I haven't even been to the planet yet. And I don't think this planet could trigger...

[There's a frustrated sigh.]

It will probably just be easier if I show you. Just promise you won't freak out?

And, yeah. I was seriously hoping it wasn't just me.

I promise. I've seen a lot of things. [Her buddy from back home is blue furred with a speared tail and glowing yellow eyes. But she does appreciate that someone who doesn't even know her is trusting her with...whatever it is.]

All right, then.

[The video feed turns on to show a very awkward-looking bird monster. Who is, notably, not even holding the camera, she just appears to be letting it hover in front of her.]

... So, yeah. I'd kind of, you know, like to have my hands again.

That happens multiple times a day regardless. What's up?

... You remember the game where we had to collect pieces of the antidote...?

[It is more extreme than Angel's look. He just got the wings. But true to her word, there's no freaking out.] Are only the hands new, or do you normally look human? And do you always have...telekinesis? [Guessing on that one since she's not holding it, but maybe there's another set up or ability she's not aware of at play.]

No, I'm normally human. Or... Physically human, anyway?

[Or, technically a lich... But she doesn't know if that counts while her body is still alive, just her soul being bound to something else. She doesn't like to think about that much, anyway.]

It's magic, not telekinesis. I always have magic, but my Wind spell is a lot stronger like this.

[She nods, taking in the information. Magic is no surprise for her. Though she does wonder if the girl knows Misty.] I haven't seen any unexpected wings. [Or expected ones. It's been a no-wing zone.] I'm guessing the god who did it last time isn't part of the fleet?

[she flinches, avoiding looking at the screen.]

... She... It? I'm not sure. But yeah, it's not here. I mean, not to be dramatic, but... You can tell it's not here because no one's dead.

Oh, I'm sure some of us are dead, but I get your point. [Herself in a she would be if she hadn't been abducted kind of way. Sascha in an undead kind of way.]

Sorry I'm not more help. Maybe someone with an applicable ability would be able to see the cause? [She thinks of Leto, but she's not sure she should be announcing his ability to down someone's timeline on the network. It may also not work for something like this.]

I hope so. I'm hoping it'll wear off- It lasted about half a day last time, but we got the antidote for it then.

[She's not commenting on the first part, for... a lot of reasons.]

It's all right, though, don't worry about it. Just hope that it wears off before I have to figure out what exactly harpies eat.

Hopefully protein gels. [It is...curious. And she wonders if this has to do with the fleet, Atroma, augment, or all of the above or if it is something more individual to her. But she doesn't want to push for answers the girl doesn't have.]

I'm Kitty by the way. Allen actually told me I should talk to you. [Maybe he didn't say it exactly like that, but he wasn't interested in rehashing his fleet experiences with her.] Might not be the best time for that though.

I'm pretty sure those gels aren't fit for human consumption, much less fucked-up bird monsters'.

[That gets her to blink in surprise, though, and anything is a welcome distraction from her current state.]

Huh? Talk to me about what?

[Transformations??]

I'm assuming you don't mean something like the avatars, right?

[It's probably too close to the whole "my world is not a game" thing they are not allowed to talk about, but it's all he can think of.]

It... might be...? You're the closest thing I can think of.

... Do you want to come over to the Iskaulit and see for yourself?

Hah...?

[Close to the avatar? Like a costume change?]

I definitely think I have to see that. I'll be right there.

Thanks.

And, uh, if it's not too much trouble... Do you think you could bring something to eat?

...Um. It's no trouble, but are you stuck or something?

Whoa- what's that white stuff?

[It looks fun...so does the fox playing around, what a cute guy]

And I haven't heard anything about transformations here. But I kinda just got here.

No, it's just...

Well, you'll see?
