Who: Alex Russo and you lucky people
Broadcast: Network - unfiltered
Action: Hospitality Deck
When: March 22nd

[Early in the evening, a teenage girl's supremely pissed-off face appears in the sightline of the camera, close enough to screw with the focus. She's got a red-lipsticked scowl, and an expression that says she's just damn tired of this.]

I swear the next "Welcome to purgatory, you're in for life, enjoy your stay" spiel I hear? Someone's getting a kick in the gut. All I want's a taco and the first flight back to New York. Otherwise, don't even bother.

[You can find her on the Hospitality Deck for some time afterwards, looking about as pleased as a wet cat. She's twirling around a wand in one hand, shuffling her brain for any kind of spell that could get her out of here. But none of the likely contenders are working, and as spell after spell fizzles and dies, her muttering is getting louder and more angry.]

You're late, Felix already took that line.

[onlyanapple]

Felix is a moment stealer.

You remember our happy little castle home, then?

[delincuente]

What a drama queen. And yeah - every single fantastic second.

[onlyanapple]

He is what he is.

Well, it could be worse. I can't think how, but it probably could.

[delincuente]

A reality show could always be worse. Like, they could force us to eat bugs, or spread peanut butter on ourselves, or talk about our feelings. And Felix didn't mention anything like that.

[onlyanapple]

If those are what you consider 'worse' I do have to ask if you were high off your nut for most of your time in the castle to miss most of what happened there.

[delincuente]

[Well, she was trying to keep it light, but if you wanna take it in that direction.]

... Of course I didn't miss it. I got my chest ripped open, it was a blast.

[onlyanapple]

[He's a douche like that.]

Well, I haven't seen any chest opening things yet. If that's a comfort.

[delincuente]

I don't know, I was kind of hoping to make it a matching set. One gruesome scar is a little unbalanced.

[onlyanapple]

True, it does attract more attention, I bet.

[delincuente]

Only when I take my shirt off. I was counting on that to make friends here.

[She touches her tongue to her teeth in a little laugh at herself, but it's still somewhat devoid of humor.]

So what, is this like a dumping ground for Paradisa vets? How'd that work out?

[onlyanapple]

Well, it would get a few eyebrows raised, I'm sure.

I don't know, there are a freakishly large amount of us. Maybe Paradisa was in cahoots with Atroma?

[delincuente]

It's, like, the obnoxious younger sibling or something.

[onlyanapple]

That's a rather apt description, yes.
