.001 - Day after zombies!

[The Elf fiddles with the small computer, touching the various buttons until his face appears, glancing somewhere off-camera. He is easily recognizable to some as a blood elf, and appears utterly fascinated by the contraption before him, and obviously enjoying playing with it.]

...You know, this almost seems like a neat little way to solve quite a few of my current problems, if only in a temporary fashion. Of course, in closing one door another dozen others have a habit of opening in return.

[Food for thought, there. The Elf flicks one long ear and leans back from where he's sitting, quiet for a moment, as if trying to figure out just what he should say next. When he finally speaks again, there's a lightness to his voice that isn't quite conveyed in his eyes, despite the relatively smooth performance.]

But where are my manners? I apologize. My name is Duibhín Sunstorm and I'm a recent transport, like others, it seems, for what it's worth.

[He shrugs delicately and lets his lips curl into the faintest of smiles. Time to make the best of a strange situation and find something to occupy himself with before he ends up having a temper tantrum.]

Don't be shy now. I'm rather eager to meet people.

My name is Frodo; at your service and your family's.

[Frodo can't help but look curiously at the Elf; he must be one, though he looks nothing like any other elf he has ever met]

What problems would those be, that they can only be solved, but not for long?

[He peers back at Frodo curiously in return, tilting his head slightly. After a moment though he dips his head in a formal greeting, speaking in an even, polite tone.]

A ...pleasure to meet you, Frodo.

[And it is a pleasure, though based off the appearance he's not precisely sure what Frodo is. Still, at the question he arches one long brow and lets that faint smile return to his lips.]

Troubling times are coming back home, and this was a rather convenient way to escape them. I needed to slip away for awhile and thus ...here I am. Have you ever faced that sort of problem?

[Frodo has made an attempt to make a small bow, but holds onto the device better on second thought.]

Likewise. [it seems the hobbit can't decide where to study; the strange eyebrows or the long ears, far longer than the Fair Folk. Do they have distant cousins? The eyes too are strange, more like Shelke's than anything else]

Sometimes, though at the moment, they could not have picked a worse time to steal one away. I really must get back.

I suppose you are in no hurry yourself to get back, however.

Welome to the Initiative, sir. Be careful for undead.

[It would be funny, except he sounds totally serious. Actually mostly just tired.]

Undead?

[He's picking up on those little cues, Med'an, and nodding slowly, losing some of that humor for wariness. Still, you get a small smile while Duib tries to figure out just what you are.]

I will. And ...please, Duibhín or Ambassador, you needn't bother with sir.

Yes....the kind that the Lich King controls. He's been brought here by the Initiative, just like we have.

[HE WISHES HE HAD BETTER NEWS :( But if Duib wants to be friends...nyo....]

Then, Duibhin. I'm Med'an. [....c:? ]

Ok, elf-dude? I'm digging the hair metal look. It works for you. Those are some wicked looking eyebrows too. Name's Eddie Riggs, I'm a roadie.

...

[Have a moment of silence as Duib just sort of ...stares. Who are you, Eddie? What are you?]

I ...thank you.

[Pause.]

What is a ...roadie?

You got musicians where you come from, right? I'm basically one of the dudes who travels with bands and makes sure they have all the shit built or fixed for them that they need, so they can get up on stage and rock the fuck out.

[He's not particularly happy to see another member of his race, especially not one as mannered as Duibhin seems to be. He narrows his eyes.]

Bal'a dash, malanore.

[Another Sin'dorei? And one who doesn't seem very pleased. He bows his head slightly to the greeting, responding.]

Anu belore dela'na.

[ kael'thas is so finished with fucking around with this shit he absolutely 100% does not care about appearing on the screen here with an expression of both curiosity and mild displeasure ]

Anaria shola.

[ for a second, there's a pause, as though that is all he's going to say and then wait for his mere presence to carry on the conversation itself. but he continues. ]

I myself find our situation--increasingly disturbing, arriving here.

...

[That face. There is no way to not recognize who that is, and for a moment it is conveyed in his expression. Uncertainty, fear, perhaps a mild dash of horror and confusion ...before finally acceptance and that neutrality he strives for. There will be time for questions (and oh he has questions) later.]

...Anu belore dela'na.

[He wants to know more, but not ...not yet. Sitting down for this one, the Elf peers at Kael'thas for a moment before bobbing his head in a respectful manner. Better not to go around screaming for the moment.]

Could you ...please perhaps tell me more?

Quite calm about all this, aren't you! That's quite a nice change, I really have to admit. Are you sure you don't want to threaten those that brought you here just a little?

Should I threaten, will that get me anywhere faster? I'm sure I could throw quite the fit if need be, but it seemed like it wasn't worth it.

[He chuckles softly.]
