When: Now!

[ Broadcast (Cirrusa City) ]

[The camera zeroes in something tentacle-y. And fried.]

So I'm obviously in the best place, where they fry everything. Like I think I dropped my watch and they fried that, too.

[The camera turns back to a teenage girl. She's wearing a number of odd-looking accessories, including some shiny clip-on earrings, a hat that stands straight up, some sunglasses. She looks like the most embarrassing tourist in the world.]

I'm in freaking space. This is amazing. I'm like a regular space cadet.

[She's taking this rather well.] Oh, hey. If Leah or Paulie's there, you should totally send me a message, dude.

[She pokes at the fried tentacle thing she ordered. Why did she order this.]

And what the heck's up with me being a security officer? Like what goober looked at all five-one-and-a-half feet o' this and was like 'Hell yeah, this girl is totally competent enough to take down like... monsters and shit!'?


[ Action (SS Huntress) ]

[At the end of the day, Juno walks in, lugging a small sack full of a lot of heavy... junk. Weird statues with googly eyes, a lamp with pink tassels, and tons of junk food. Yeah, she's spending all her money like whoa. The bag rips, and all her things come tumbling out.]

Aw, freakin' poop.

[Is she crazy or is there a resemblance? Of course Kitty has a few years on her and almost all of them were of very hard living. Different styling choices. Shorter hair. Also, shorter than she is by a few inches, but it still gives her just enough pause to say something.]

Best fighter I've ever known was only 5'3". [Sorry, everyone on the team who isn't Logan.] People can surprise you.

Are you going to eat that?

[video]

[hamburgerphone]

[Huh.] Really? That's friggin' awesome. I love people surprises. They're somewhere between a surprise party and a surprise attack.

Heck yeah, I am. [See... she's popping it in her mouth now. And chewing. And swallowing really fast.] Eugh, so squishy!

[video]

[passingthrough]

That's a good scale for him.

[She watches, somewhat entertained as she eats it. She's not sure where something like that falls on a scale with protein gel. She might try it.] Worth it?

[summerschild]

[Hi, have a tiny kid in a big furry cloak. He's looking at Juno like she's the coolest alien he's seen all day, with all of those accessories.]

I ate fried cotton. [Cotton candy, actually, but he didn't understand the concept.] Is that a squid?

[video]

[hamburgerphone]

[Oh my god the smol.]

What the good golly molly does fried cotton taste like? Like the fabric of our lives?

[She frowns down at her plate.] I think so? I just pointed at it and they got all excited and gave it to me. So I think I have to eat it now.

[summerschild]

Sweet, like cake. It disappears on your tongue, though. The man couldn't tell me how.

[Who is Good Golly Molly? Bran is too overwhelmed to ask.]

I didn't know people ate squids. Aren't the slimy?

[noprophecies]

[what in the world, child]

Is fried food that good?

video;

[hamburgerphone]

It is, it is. Like if you fried vegetables, I would probably actually eat them. It's like God was like 'You can taste what heaven tastes like, but I'm gonna laugh because your arteries will clog faster than you can say any limerick you can think of.'

[ Obi-Wan doesn't waste any time. He immediately goes and helps her with her things.

. . . Her very strange things. He turns them over his hand before handing it back wordlessly. ]

[ action ]

[hamburgerphone]

[She smiles, taking an item from him.] Hey, gracias, dude. I don't think we've met. I'm Juno, your humble and tiny security officer.

[girlverine]

Height doesn't matter.

[Laura is a teeny tiny weapon of mass destruction, according to some people. Also maybe slightly offended?]

Video

[hamburgerphone]

Are you a short person, too? No offense intended. I'm also a teenager whose biggest workout of the day is getting the Cheetos open.

[kickingand]

Guess they just let anyone handle the big guns.

[ He's so.... skeptical. Of everything that you are. ]

video

[hamburgerphone]

Hey, hey, now. I'm not just anyone. I've totally gone through a life-changing Lifetime movie experience and grown up and stuff.

[She's totally grown up. That's why she's eating this squid and -] EUGH! SLIMY! Yucky...

[ Maglor will hurry over to help when her bag splits.

And stare a little at her... odd collection ]

Are you planning on a collection of some sort, young misstress?

action

[hamburgerphone]

[She grins, happy to meet a fellow crewmate.] Whoa, 'young mistress'? You're so medieval-ly.

[He asked you a question, Juno.] Oh! Yeah, sort of. I thought I could share with the ship! So, like, if you like anything...

[wolfuncaged]

Size has little to do with competency on a battlefield. You simply need to learn how to use your size to your advantage, and their size against them.

Video

[hamburgerphone]

Dude, you should, like, copyright that. That's so motivational. I want to go kick people's asses now.

[Not even joking, man.]

How do I do that?

Video

[spontaneouscombustion]

Ooooh I LOVE your hat! Where'd you get it?

[Hoooly cow, that sure is a bright pink pony.]

Video

[hamburgerphone]

Dude, I found it here in Cirrusa City. This place is the bomb.

[...]

I'm sorry, ma'am, but did you know that you're a talking pony? Like I don't have anything against talking ponies, but... I thought you should know. In case you didn't.

[ontrial]

Size is a very poor indicator of competency, if you haven't been reassured of that already.

[ shortie squad! this one is green with a tattooed face and a patiently amused smile. ]

And welcome to space, enthusiastic newcomer.

video;

[hamburgerphone]

I have, I have. I also have problems getting jam jars open, but you know what, I'm going to try to be the best security officer Huntress has ever seen.

[She grins.]

Thank you, awesome stranger!

[scanninggaydis]

It's a reality show, maybe they're looking for comedy. Or conflict.

[Here's hoping they never actually get attacked, though. Kids probably shouldn't be in charge of security.]

[hamburgerphone]

Oo good point! Like when they switched out the hot girl for the fat guy in that island show. Seriously, though, this is so cool but so effed up, if you think about it.

[survivalistcookbook]

Oh, hey. I still haven't tried the space calamari.

[Whatever she has there, it looks delicious. Theoretically. Assuming it hasn't been deep-fried into a strip of rubber. Eugene peers as closely at it as he can, though it's obvious he's in some sort of big, loud outdoor market.]

How is it?
