Fifth Blood
[Unusually for this network user, the transmission is purely Audio. A great deal of transports will of course recognize the voice as belonging to Kanaya Maryam. Strangers will hear a fifteen-year-old female, naturally rather mature and composed, doing her best to sound even more so. She speaks crisply and briskly with no mercy, like the distinctions between American and British English are to be stalked into a dark alley and shot in the back of the skull.]
The armageddon that occurred in the world of Elmer C. Albatross isn't the only one that's ever occurred in paradox space, you know. Just ask Asuka Langley Soryu or Rei Ayanami or Shinji Ikari. Any of them can tell you that the end of a world is always at least as ugly a thing as what happened on May Twenty-First. Anyone who escaped the planet Alternia before the meteors struck can reiterate the sentiments that Exsilium is a far better alternative to no planet at all. For many of us, Exsilium is our home now and we'll fight literally to the ends of an Earth for its sake.
I know not all of you feel that sort of debt to the Initiative. You do want to go home, this isn't your war, it's their fault. That's really too bad. Because if we let the United Earth have their way and don't develop Initiative in both senses of the word, we're all going to be post-apocalyptic refugees before long. We come from dozens of worlds. Would you like to take arms with the Initiative to fight against the reckoning, or watch each one meet the same fate Elmer's world did?
[An open question, Exsilium.]

( She's teasing, because how to deal with anything when she isn't trying to make jokes is ridiculous. And because she misses her brother so much. Jules doesn't underestimate children, she'd just rather everyone had to be spared the grisly things. It's not really an easy to ease into conversation, however.
A quiet sigh. ) Kanaya. ( And she repeats it again, under her breath, to commit it to memory. )

( Jules just enjoys parties, it's true. )
A virtual reality party seems like it would be potentially massively disappointing.

( She pauses, idly inspecting her nails as she speaks, thinking it all over. )
Would you really have to go to another world or anything like that? I mean, we could just have something here, surely.
( Not that she has any idea how to organise that. ) To be fair, I'm not sure the transports would be all that eager to go hopping about somewhere en masse, either.
