Who: Meg Masters & YOU unfortunate people
Broadcast: video
Action: Marsiva
When: now

[you're greeted with the expression of a young woman, thoroughly impressed and lounging on the bed she woke up on. She's already taken a cursory glance at the network after the confusion died down into something more like annoyance, and well - a bored and annoyed Meg is never a good thing.

She scowls for a moment, until she realizes the camera's on. Then she smirks and leans back, legs coming into view as she crosses them, getting comfortable]

So, two requests. [she holds up a finger] The quickest and dirtiest explanation you can give me. I'll be counting words and keeping track, and I may even give the winner a special surprise.

Two, [she holds up two fingers now] I'm looking for some good gossip. I'm behind on my tabloids and a girl has needs, you know? And sharing is caring, after all.

Don't keep me waiting too long, yeah?

Comments

[experiencepoints]

Well, it is exactly what you asked for.

[angelherding]

So it is. Clever girl.

Alright, extra points to the cute blonde. Think anyone will beat that?

[experiencepoints]

[... please ignore her turning slightly pink at being called cute.]

Unless someone else has been writing a guide without telling me, I seriously doubt it.

[angelherding]

[now whyever would she do such a thing] Aww, she's blushing. That's adorable.

I guess we'll see how clever the rest of this place can be.

[experiencepoints]

I am doing no such thing.

Let me know if anyone says anything interesting, I guess.

[angelherding]

Oh, of course not. I must be seeing things.

[delivered in the perfect deadpan]

I'll keep you updated. Do I get a name, or do I get to call you the cute blonde from now on?

[experiencepoints]

[you are the worst]

Nightingale. Gray Nightingale, from Takshaka, if that means anything. What about you?

[angelherding]

[more like the BEST]

'Fraid it doesn't, Nightingale. I'm Meg.

[experiencepoints]

Worth a shot.

Anyway, if you have any questions, now's the time to ask.

[angelherding]

What's a Takshaka?

Oh, I have a ton of questions. Why is this place so clean, that one's really bugging me right now.

[experiencepoints]

A very long story.

Cleaning robots, I think?

[angelherding]

I like stories.

[a considering pause] Well, that's a new one.

[experiencepoints]

My team.

Yeah, they're around, you'll see them before long.

[angelherding]

Softball, basketball, field hockey . . . ? [throw her a bone, here]

I'm looking forward to it. We were talking Roombas, here, or are they less dumb?

[experiencepoints]

Yeah, that story isn't happening unless you're going to buy me a drink for it.

... I have no idea what a 'Roomba' is.

[angelherding]

A story for a drink? Sounds fair enough.

Tiny little robot vacuums. They look like frisbees slowly moving across your floor.

[experiencepoints]

And that will have to wait until you're off the Marsiva.

Oh. Kind of, yeah? Sounds about right.

[angelherding]

How long will that take? I don't handle waiting well.

[as we've seen already]

I'll keep an eye out. [so she can kick it. Probably]

[experiencepoints]

... Days, probably?

[angelherding]

[definitely kicking roombas]

Great.

[experiencepoints]

Oh, don't whine, you get the good food over there.

[angelherding]

Good food I don't eat, you mean. I could, but I don't need to.

[experiencepoints]

... Okay, sure, I'll bite. Why don't you eat?

[angelherding]

[hmmm]

Liquid diet. Very important, can't go off it, etc, etc.

[so convincing]

[experiencepoints]

[Pauses, and then:]

Are you another vampire.
