Hello!

[when this video post starts, the focus is somewhere... around the top of her head. Colette's eyes widen as she notices that she's holding it too high, so the view suddenly jumps down (yep, she just over corrected). Nibbling on her lip a little, she tilts it higher again... perfect! Determined not to let the view vary she tries her best not to move it]

My name is Colette Brunel. I haven't talked to everyone like this yet, so... hello! It's really nice to meet you all.

I'm sorry to bother everyone like this, but I wanted to ask something. Even though we... don't live on Earth anymore [her gaze grows a mite somber as she talks about it] it still sounds like a very important world. A lot of people here come from Earth, and we're supposed to travel throughout Earth's history! I come from another world that is very different, so I would really like to learn more about Earth if I can.

And so... if anyone knows anything about Earth and has a little time to spare, I'd love to ask some questions! O-Or, if you would rather just tell me a few facts and not be asked any questions, that's okay too. Anything would be helpful.

[although, a thought strikes her] Ah! That doesn't mean that I don't want to talk to people if they're not from Earth. I'd like to hear about everyone's homes! They all sound really beautiful in their own way, and it would be nice to hear about many worlds.

[she pauses, and smiles sheepishly! She's not one to get shy, but she feels a little bad making requests like this when everyone is probably busy]

[No frowning on his watch!] Hey now, it's alright! We'll get around to fixing it once things are running better here. I'm just glad the Initiative came back after they'd dropped me off, so I had somewhere to go. So smile for me, okay? No being sad about it.

Arda? That's such a pretty name!

[well she can't refuse a request like that, can she? she nods and smiles slightly]

You're right, together we'll be able to fix all of it.

[He taps his response out painfully slow, but he gets it.]

yeah

sorry i dont know how to do the other ones yet

i didnt know you were here !

[Oops.]

Ah...he was my...protector, I suppose. [Or her prison guard, but she doesn't need to try to explain that.]

[He smiles right back!] That's better! And you're right. Plus I know someone who's working on a plan to fix it already. We'll get there in time. For now, I like being here to meet all the people brought here from all over the universe. I have the Initiative to thanks for that as well!

that is okay I bet you will get better at it really soon!

when did you arrive? was it when those creatures were attacking?

Yeah, it's coming up real soon. It's gonna be great!

[that's an odd way to describe someone, but hey... sometimes describing things is difficult, so she doesn't pry]

Oh.. and Booker?

Booker is...a friend. He only just arrived in Columbia before I was brought here.

[yay! enthusiasm is infectious, so Colette feels just as excited]

So the point of the holiday is to eat to eat food with people who are important to you? [since... she can't imagine that many people here have the luxury of blood family]

[Aww, how cute. Cue Sheryl's affirmative nod.]

As a matter of fact, I was born there. I've visited many fleets and each of them are different from another. Take Macross Galaxy as an example. [A slight hand wave.] It's an industrialized chemical plant fleet known for its factories and cybernetic implants.

[A quick pause.]

Aah... think of them as special gadgets inserted into your brain to enhance whichever trait you have. But anyway, you don't really see any plants or oceans there at all. Frontier, on the other hand... [Her smile grows bigger and fonder.] It's beautiful! Lots of gorgeous, colorful lands. So many trees and an actual sea! It's actually filled with life there, with absolutely no slums in sight!

yeah

youre ok right? nothing bad happened while they were here ?

[other than, like, the zombies.]

I can't really read all that well...

A lovely name for a lovely world.

[Celebrian... your bias is showing.]

Well, you're right about that. It's very big! [ she grins and nods. ] I've only seen a small part of it, myself - I only lived in a small town, but. [ how to explain? seeing as there was magic involved, her perceptions might be off, just slightly. ] Barring the obvious, all things considered, life there wasn't terribly different there than it is here.

You don't know that word?

[It's just gonna add to her slip up, but she can't very well keep it secret when asked so directly. That would look even more suspicious.]

Um... It's for older girls. It means "big sister"!

[aw Lloyd, even though they're texting she nods... as if he can see her, idk]

yes I have been safe.

where are you? can I come see you?

That sounds beautiful! [and enough like her own hometown to get a nostalgic happy smile as she imagines it]

Is Frontier your favorite?

Fewer, now. I don't know whether to praise Nature's perseverance or mourn the cruelty of humankind. Is it curiosity that has you interested in Earth?

[Focus isn't really a thing he's interested in.]

And what was the name of the town where you were born?

Mm, that makes sense. [basic life is always similar, no matter where you go... huh?]

What was the name of the town?

What did he think of Columbia when he saw it? If he had never heard about it before... a floating city must have seemed amazing!

Okay. Hm... do you mind if I suggest places from my world? [it doesn't seem an ideal way to pick a new home, but maybe there are towns that are similar in this girl's world?]

Yes, sorry. [aw, but that's a cute word]

And... I'm sorry if this is an odd question, but is she your friend or your sister? Or both?
