001: video

[waxingmoon]

[The video switches on easily to show Isa looking at the screen, more or less expressionless.]

Nice kidnappers we've got here. They provide weapons, lodgings, and computers so we can communicate. Probably would've been nicer if they'd asked before the whole kidnapping thing, though.

[A slight smile appears on his face, then disappears almost as quickly.]

I've got a question. Do these things save conversations? It seems like that could be useful. You know, so we could all relive the complete lack of an explanation we got when we arrived.

Anyway. Looks like this is gonna be quite an adventure.

I'm Isa.

Maybe I do! Stop by and ask in person sometime.

[ Wink!

... What, just 'cause she can webchat now doesn't mean it's a replacement for spending facetime with people. Of course she's going to try! ]

[waxingmoon]

I wouldn't mind that. Maybe I will stop by sometime.

[She's not boring to talk to, anyway! And Isa ought to at least try to make some friends.]

[ Wait, really? She blinks and beams, blurting out: ]

Apartment 403! That's me. Stop by anytime! Evenings are probably better for catching me in without a heads up beforehand.

[He's a little startled by the positive response, but he does smile.]

All right, I'll keep that in mind. I'm sure we'll see each other around, too.

The Hold's not that big. I'm sure we will! Until later, Isa!

[ Said with a jovial wave at the screen. Score! She was going to make great friends here, she could tell! ]
