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]

[ Earth, not Earth... this never stops being weird, but it's at least possible to pretend like it does. ]

Well-- it's all different. People are different depending on where and who you are. Hard to know where to start.

Oh! I'm sorry, you're right... Mm, maybe you could tell me about your hometown?

Not too much to tell -- don't really have one. Moved around too much when I was young to stick around one place for long. [ He supposes that's not really helpful, though. ] Then after that I was in Florida. Uh... which if you've never been, is warm and wet almost year round.

[Florida, huh?]

Why did you move so often?

[ That's his story, sticking to it, etc. ]

Oh, boring story. My dad, he-- was a traveling bible salesman. Dragged us all around with him city to city. What's it like where you're from?
