[Video] Complaint #1
Who: Edna and You
Broadcast: Oh yes
Action: on the Marsiva
When: today
[Video]
[Being warm and comfortable is nice for half a second, but Edna has never needed to sleep in her life. Sure, resting is great and all, especially after a long and hard fight, but still not necessary. And waking up has never been difficult for her. Until now.
She rolls over and stretches, a booted foot sticking out of the blankets as her gloved hand covers a yawn that would put a man five times her size to shame. One blue eye cracks open before the other and she slowly rotates her head over.
And sees a black sky sprinkled with stars. Too many stars. That's when she sits up and looks around, frowning as she sees the sterile metal....things everywhere.]
Where's my mountain?
[Her hands pat around her, looking for her umbrella, and come up empty. Her voice and face definitely let anyone who can see her over the comm know that she is Not Happy. Sadly all that comes through is her voice, and the movements she makes on the bed. So, beware of ghosts.]
Alright, Meebo, you can give my umbrella back. You have five seconds.
[Action]
[For those with high spiritual resonance, they will see a tiny girl who is stomping around the Marsiva, looking as if she can murder anything or one who gets in her way. Her footsteps are much heavier than someone of her size should be able to generate, but that's not stopping her.]

no subject
[If you want her to know you're name, you might want to tell her yourself.]
no subject
I'm not sure what a Seraph is, either, but if 'Meebo' is your friend, you should treat him with more respect.
no subject
A seraph is a malak, if you find that term more familiar. And there's no point in telling her something like that, because she'll just ignore it.
no subject
I don't think an Earth Dweller has any room telling me what I should and shouldn't do. How Mikleo and I get along isn't any of your business, is it?
[Yes, of course she knows his name and she uses it quite often. But giving him nicknames is part of the fun.]
But, yes, the nerd is correct. Malakim and Seraphim are just different names for the same people.
no subject
[And even if it's not her business, she's not opposed to intervening in other people's, either. At least, she isn't until something more interesting comes up.]
I think we may be from the same planet, then. My name is Eleanor Hume, it's nice to meet you.
no subject
He's gonna follow his own advice and ignore her, though. She's just trying to rile him up 8( ]
I'm Mikleo, and this is Edna. Likewise.
[Though if she's human and knows seraphim as malakhim, why's she being so friendly?]
no subject
[Did the Five Lords just offer up the most ridiculous human being to her? She has the desire for her umbrella just so she can stab this stupid busybody a few times before she goes to find her even stupider brother.]
I don't care what your name is. I don't want to catch your dumb.
[Also, Mikleo, you're gonna get it for just handing out her name like that.]
no subject
It's nice to meet the both of you.
[A few more pieces click to place. Edna? Malak?]
Edna, you wouldn't happen to be Eizen's sister, would you?
no subject
He kind of doesn't want to ask, but...]
You're acquainted with Eizen?
no subject
[Polite? Kind? What are those words? Nope. Not where her brother is concerned.]
no subject
He's a good friend of mine. We traveled together a few months back.
[Time? What's time?]
no subject
I see... so you're also from the past.
no subject
[Take it as a compliment. Sort of.]
So, what are you? Some other misfit he found, like Zaveid?
no subject
[Well, you've got her there. She's genuinely confused. And also, full of regret. Eleanor can't even respond to that naive comment because she knows it's true.]
Actually, I was an exorcist. I worked with Eizen and Velvet to take down Artorius.
no subject
Months ago, that word would have meant very little to him- he'd associate it more with Allen, nothing to do with their world. But conversations with Zaveid, with Eizen, with Velvet... everything's different now. Though his face isn't visible over the communicator, his tone has definitely changed- surprise, and a degree of caution that wasn't there before.]
Why would an exorcist be cooperating with a malak against their own leader?
[And since when were malakhim people to exorcists, let alone friends?]
no subject
It took her a long time to get used to the idea of Shepherds not all being like Claudin and Artorius, if she's perfectly honest. It helped to sour her already low opinion of Earth Dwellers. It 's the reason she was so reluctant to really enter a pact with Sorey at first. Until she saw the way he interacted with Lailah and Mikleo.
All teasing is gone from her voice. She's angry. That word is a dirty word in her book. Sure, she never wore a collar. Neither did Eizen. But that doesn't make her like them any better. And she's not likely to be kind to this naive little bootlicker.]
Because she's not crazy enough to try and collar Eizen. She's still alive, so she must have some semblance of intelligence.
no subject
[But part of atoning is facing the past, and working towards a solution. As painful as it is, the only thing she can do now is accept her sins and find her own path.]
Yes, I know it must sound strange. There was a time when I was against Velvet's group, too, until Eizen and Laphicet helped me understand just how badly the exorcists were extorting the malakhim.
[She sighs. It's tempting to look away, but she can't. Even if she can't see who she's speaking to, she at least owes them some sincerity.]
Even if Artorious was the leader of the Abbey at the time, his actions were unforgivable. We should be working for a better future for all, malak and human alike.
no subject
...I suppose I can see the logic of that. If he'd succeeded, you'd have lost your will along with the rest of the humans, right? So at the very least, it'd be a self-serving decision.
[Until she's proven to be trustworthy, that's the most credit he can offer her. The word exorcist still kinda stings, and no doubt it's even worse for Edna, seeing as she was around for that era.]
no subject
[Mikleo is far more forgiving than Edna ever will be. Eleanor will have to work three times as hard to even be tolerated.]
And even if you're friends with my idiot brother and that Lord of Calamity, that doesn't give you a free pass to do as you like because you've only recently started to think outside your own little box, exorcist. Sorey and the others might be kind to you, but don't expect it from me.
