[001 | Video]
[Oh hello there, Exsilium, have the face of a bright-eyed girl that looks way too excited to be here. It seems after much technology abuse and generally failing at turning it on, she finally gets the video working! Success for a failure]
Don't worry, fellow kidnapped people of Exhelium! [That's 'Exsilium', Maya] You don't have to explain everything, I've got it aaaaaall figured out. In fact, I'm an Ace Explainer myself, so just sit back and let me break it down for you, Maya-style!
We're in future England! [This is probably the only fact she's gotten right, but-] Brought here by the United Earth people because they're being oppressed by the Initiative! [And then there's a pause for some very Deep and Philosophical Thoughts. ...Not.] ... I bet it's the tea. England's known for its tea, you know? Anyone would be jealous of that selection!
... But anyway, we've been brought here because we've got to go into the future to change the past! It's just like that movie with Mikey K. Box, except with tea on the line as well as time! [WHAT WAS IT CALLED AGAIN..... Oh, well]
But more importantly than all of that.... I have a question. [SUDDENLY SERIOUS? Look, she's even leaning into the camera all dramatically] A question that will change the fate of the entire world! [Whatever's left of it] Well, mostly me right now, but for everyone's sake, I need an answer!
[There's a long, long pause as she stares intently into the camera. And then:]
Where's the nearest burger joint? I'm starved! And if we're really in the future they must have invented a way for burgers to be even more delicious! Right?
[... And then there's a brief flash of embarrassment, and when she continues she's a little more low-key] ... Um, and how do I get to the housing place? Unit... 406, I think?

video; WOW so late please forgive me
[But her tone gets a little curious:] What's a "burger?"
video; no forgive me for my lateness sob 1/2
no subject
H-Huh? You don't know?
video; haha it's no problem
Can't say I do. [A tilt of her head.] Never heard of it. [Fast food wasn't a thing that existed in Pulse, back in her day, and she hadn't cared for the food on Cocoon enough to explore most of the options there.]
video; <3
B-B-B-But how could you not know?! They're only the most delicious food in existence!
This is a joke, right? It has to be a joke!
video;
No jokes here, kid. Maybe it's not as good as you say it is, if I've never heard of it. [Never mind the fact that she didn't even know what a credit card was before waking up on Cocoon, among other things. She's just being a jerk.]
video;
H-How can you say that?! If you've never heard of it it's because the sacred knowledge of perfection between two buns is too delicious to be shared!
You have to try one! [DECREE OF RANDOM GIRL YOU JUST MET.] You have to!
video;
but that makes her chuckle.]
You're pretty serious about this hamburger thing, I take it. All right. If you say so. Do they even have 'em here?
video; 1/2
video;
... Well, taste for yourself.
video;
[Well, hey. What the hell. #YOLO and whatnot. She shrugs her shoulders.] Worth a shot. I got nothing better to do.
video; 1/2
[AW YEAAAA. That was surprisingly easy] I knew you'd see it my way!
video;
You wouldn't happen to know where the diners and stuff are, would you?
video; 1/2
Uh...huh.
video;
video;
I guess it'll be an exploration adventure for deliciousness for the both of us!
Um, okay, where should we meet?
video;
[Sigh. Better her than a creep, she figures. Might as well go.]
Ground floor of this place. You know where that is, right?
video; I apologize for my slow 8(
[Pause.]
... Um, of course! Yeah. Definitely. Totally. I've got it all under control!
video; omg i apologize also! just a row of subject lines, apologizing
Can you describe where you are?
video; yes. i apologize for your apologies!!!
[And describing! It's pretty close to the apartments, somehow]
video - action;
[And true to her word, Fang arrives shortly after the feed cuts, looking around for the odd girl. It's not really her thing — random acts of kindness, that is — but the years of sleep and dreams have tempered some of her less friendly traits, and she figures it'll be a good way to learn about this place.]
action;
[Upon finally spotting Fang, her expression immediately changes; her face lights up and she starts waving excitedly and bounds over to greet her]
Hey!
action;
Her greeting is more subdued: she raises a hand, tilts her head at Maya's excitement. It reminds her of Vanille.]
Hey. [A pause, and she adds:] Didn't catch your name. It's gonna get awkward, calling you "kid" all the time.
