the scheduled program will now continue...
[You know that giant screen beside the mysterious counter? It turns out that it's not just there to watch cartoons on. A couple days after that ominous broadcast, an old jingle rings from the speakers... and the screen beams to life.
Veteran passengers may remember the blonde-haired, blue-eyed Diamond. But today the special guest is someone different: a woman perhaps in her twenties, with perfect red curls and eyes of a near-glowing shade of aquamarine. She smiles with blood-painted lips.]
Good morning, dear passengers. [Her voice is the very definition of svelte.] I apologize for any inconvenience you’ve experienced in the past few days. We’ve been having some… technical difficulties, so we’ve gathered you all together while we iron those out.
[She draws her nails along the desk in front of her. Click, click, click.]
Please, please make yourself comfortable-- and do let us know if you need anything.
[She isn’t alone. Another appears - a figure in a suit, hair cut short and eyes harboring the same near-glow as the redheaded lady she moves to stand beside. There’s a smile playing at the edge of her own purple-painted lips as she casually drapes an arm over her co-host’s shoulders, though her attention is clearly on the camera -- the viewers. The cameras are rolling and the show must go on, after all.]
We hope your stay here is a restful one. You deserve a break after all the hard work you’ve done this season, don’t you agree? And of course, we’re more than glad to help with that. So please, make yourselves right at home.
[And there’s a suave, charming wink for the camera~]
[ooc: The new hosts will be taking a few questions. Feel free to say something! Also be sure to check out the plot update!]

My hammer. It was stolen from me during my arrival, and I would have it returned.
[She's beyond indifferent regarding the two new hosts, but that doesn't mean she might as well test them a bit. Even though she already suspects they aren't going to be helpful, it could still be nice to force them to make excuses for why the offered assistance can't actually be given.]
It is unlikely any of you have need of a warhammer anyway.

[ She chuckles a little - entirely good-natured about it. Her smile turns "sympathetic" though, as she shakes her head. ]
I can assure you, your hammer hasn't been stolen. It's safe where it is. You have my word. [ She nods once, firmly. ] Unfortunately, for safety reasons - and as outlined for the program as a whole - we can't just return it to you at will.
But! [ She holds out her hands, palms up, eyes shining. ] Who's to say you won't find it later? Perhaps you'll regain it during your travels, like others have done with their own personal effects, somewhere in the vast array of the universe? Maybe even at a crucial moment?
no subject
[She's never been one that approach would work on, and given her current situation and just who is making the attempt, it's even less effective.]
It is also in your interest to remember I am not here by choice. I have no fondness for you or anyone else involved in running this insult to entertainment. Continue wasting my time with that silver tongue of yours, and I will personally be the one to tear it off.
no subject
We never offered to return your warhammer, you just asked us for it. If there are things we can do to make you more comfortable, we will.
[ She is not at all threatened by Looma. She keeps her calm, as well as that smile on her face. ]
I'm sorry you think our conversation is a waste of time. If you change your mind, I think we'll be leaving this line open at least a little while longer, and we'll be happy to listen. But, in the meanwhile, let's give your fellow contestants the floor, hmm? They might have things to say to us instead.
[ aka: lol fine, bye. next~? ]
