[ When the video feed flickers on, it catches the girl from an extreme angle. She comes into clear view as she holds up the tablet and frowns at it.

The face is familiar, but there are differences. Thin always, she's too skinny now; her eyes are almost too big on her face. Her hair is a little longer and raggedly cut. Her clothes, a once fine page's garb, have turned to rags.

Sitting on the ground, Arya turns the tablet over. Her legs and the ground come briefly into view. She tosses the tablet aside with a frustrated sound. Enjoy that shot of the sky. Well. Clouds. ]

This is all stupid.

Woah.

Are you alright, kid? You look like...

[She was going to say shit, but decides against it.]

Pretty not okay.

[fe_male]

Avant garde though. What would make it less stupid? [ She looks bored. Maybe he can help. ]

stays video because what is changing feed;

[innominata]

[ Give her a break while she picks up the tablet again. What even /headtilt.jpeg ]

I'm fine.

[innominata]

If it made sense to start.

http://images.plurk.com/XskAqd9tB3dXkjJ8J988S.gif ya. you win my card, see below

[fe_male]

[ my card. also my undying approval. ]

Well, okay, you might want to put your sights a little lower.

[innominata]

[ yes good 8> ]

To what?

[fe_male]

Maybe more like, 'not implausible', rather than having to strictly make sense.

Also, which part doesn't make sense?

it is a foolish thing

[supitslilith]

[Lilith is like vaguely concerned about Arya. But she has pretty much no experience at all with children.]

You sure? You look like you could use something to eat.

And, like, a jacket.

[innominata]

[ It's okay. Arya is hardmore childcare. There is almost no one up to the task. ]

You've got one?

[innominata]

[ All of it. But let's just pick one for now. ]

This thing. How does it work?

[fe_male]

[ did she gesture to something he's just like ] What thing?

[innominata]

Thing I'm using to talk to you.

probably voice forever just thought I'd say

[supitslilith]

What, a jacket? Yeah sure I can give you one.

You're outside somewhere, right?

I figured <3

[innominata]

Yes.

sorry i had to work out the network specifics with a mod really quick

[fe_male]

Oh, wow, this thing, yeah. This thing works via electricity and a Z-wave network not unlike the internet but without all the cool shit that makes the internet actually fun.

wait jk I'm stupid; action

[supitslilith]

[AND WHOOSH Lilith actually appears out of nowhere in front of her, wherever she is, a couple of minutes later.

She hands a jacket out to Arya, and it's kinda raggedy but it's pretty big and warm. She'll probably look hilarious and adorable in it.]

Yo, here ya go, kid.

[lepetitvoleur]

Brilliant observation, mam'selle. Did you have any other wisdom to share?

[deadbythename]

[ Shit. He's pretty sure he recognizes this kid. He really shouldn't get involved, he's not that great with kids. ]

Yeah, that's life, kid. Get used to it.

[ He's an idiot.]

[innominata]

Shut up.

video on her end.

[innominata]

[ She glares at the tablet. An argument starts and dies in her mouth. She turns her face away, scowling at something out of view. ]

I know.

rofl action forever!

[innominata]

[ Arya starts. She's on her feet instantly and stumbling back. ]

How did you— You—

[innominata]

[ omg tony what language are you even speaking none of that made sense ]

…what?

yus

[supitslilith]

[It takes Lilith a second to register what the fuss is about.]

Oh, it's just my awesome Siren powers don't worry about it.

[lepetitvoleur]

That's a rude way ta treat someone just askin' a question.

[video]

[futurarex]

What happened to you?

[it is the same girl, isn't it? only she's changed a great deal--an impossibly great deal, perhaps.]
