exsilium | Chapter 1 [video]

[Being from Victorian-era London, Alice has no idea how to even begin working the miniature netbook. It only manages to activate through sheer stroke of luck. With the screen facing upward, viewers can see that this girl has clearly seen better days. Sickly pale skin, disheveled hair, dark circles around her eyes, worn and dirty clothes... Hardly the picture of health one would expect from someone so young. The only part of her that doesn't look ragged and tired would be the pendant of the Omega symbol ( Ω ) she has around her neck.]

Blasted woman made no sense at all. I will certainly not be living here, or have anything to do with their so-called training.

[Underwhelming as she may appear, this girl still has a sharp tongue on her, and a distinctly English accent. She takes a look around, but it’s clear that she has no idea what she’s supposed to be doing. Alice just sighs.]

Out of one nightmare and thrust straight into the unknown. It seems that fortune smiles upon me once more.

[The view moves, as she raises the intended communicator and looks into the monitor.]

And what a remarkably useless item you turned out to be. I’d almost go as far to say that I’d prefer the Cat as opposed to this.

But there's lots of ways to be useful! You have to be good at something.

Not in ways that would be helpful in winning their war.

What kind of things are you good at, then?

Not many.

[lies. she just doesn't feel like sharing.]

That can't be true! Come on, try to think of one thing!

[ Nothing personal, she's just way too optimistic. ]

You're rather insistent on this, aren't you.

Yeah, pretty much!

I assure you, all you'll see me be good for is...

[a pause]

Nothing pleasant.

Oh come on, try me. It can't be that bad compared to what I have seen!

It isn't a matter of comparison, it's a simple truth. Personally, I can't see why you're so intent on wanting to prove me wrong.

[life is hard, alice. it's hard and no one understands!]

Because I find it pretty unbelievable that someone has absolutely no talents that could ever be useful in some way!

When you're locked away in an asylum for half your life, it becomes that much more likely.

Aww. Well that just means it's time to try and find something you're good at! Experiment a little bit.

I've had enough experimentation.

[It was done at her expense, you see.]

[ Feferi shrugs, but doesn't seem too bothered. ]

Okay, suit yourself! But don't come glubbing to me if you're bored on missions!

I'll see to it that it doesn't come to that.

[what does glub even mean]
