[The video clicks on to show the incredibly unimpressed (if slightly haggard) face of a young woman with short, uneven hair clearly in the midst of re-growing. She has been keeping to herself since the mission for the most part, not caring to deal with the rain or other people, though once it has become more than apparent that she is stuck here indefinitely, she has decided to address the Initiative. It’s not like she has anything to lose anyway.

When she is sure the tablet is broadcasting, she places it against an unseen object, and then casually props her chin up with a hand. A caustic smile spreads across her face.]

Funny how this sounds exactly the same as back home.

[The last word is said with a note of derision.

Of course, being ‘exactly the same’ is kind of an exaggeration, but at the core of it all, it’s the same to her.]

You can use as many pretty words as you like. It doesn’t change the fact that this is just another Game and arena, and we’re all here to be your little puppets.

[She rolls her eyes, looking every bit the bored young adult, though the hand she is leaning against is starting to turn white with how hard she is clenching it.]

Been there, done that. Not going to happen again, so you can all go screw yourselves.

Oh, I guess I should thank the Initiative for their generosity in providing weapons on the get-go so we don’t have to fight to the death for them. So thanks.

[With that, the tablet is tossed carelessly over her shoulder. After a moment of sickening spinning for those still watching, the feed is shut off as it bounces out the door and into the common room of Unit 109.]


[ooc: Responses will be icly delayed.]

[There's a scoff. This is really laughable at this point. Arthur's body appears on the screen, and he's definitely not wearing anything, but his precious jewels aren't flashing about. Ygritte's too amused at this point. Merely because Arthur seems so upset about being in her body.

And let's face it, Ygritte's far better than he is.]

So this is what it's like, aye? To be a male, to have some worm between me legs? [Another scoff.]

Oh, pardon me. A royal prick between m'legs.

[She's a prince now.]

My people'd laugh at the notion. Just because my father is some so called king. Well not my father. Wonder if I've got any sort of servant to wipe m'arse.

[Snort.]

And this is some big deal?

[Yeah, right.]

Hey, I finally got this working!  Kinda embarrassing it took this long. Can't even work stuff like this and I'm not even old....  Wait, wait, I just might be able to make this a lot more interesting.

[there's that tell-tale static of a microphone being turned on.]  Gotcha!  Man, this little thing is so cool!  It still doesn't make up for, you know, any of this.  Honestly, breaking and entering, kidnapping, forced labor...what the heck would they even need with ordinary people?  Wouldn't they want super heroes or trained soldiers instead?  This all seems way too fishy for me.

First things first...where can a guy find a decent meal around here?

Hey, good afternoon! I'm sure most of you don't remember me, but I was here for a while up until about a month ago. Annnd my stroke of good luck has brought me back, so there's that... I was hoping I could get in touch with some of my old friends this way, but I've also met a lot of friendly new faces within these past couple of days. My name is Asami, and I really think it'll be a pleasure getting to know some of you guys!

I guess to hit the ground running, and maybe to keep my life at least a little consistent, I'm interested in starting a business around here. I know we have some lab tech guys, and I'm not sure if you're looking into selling any products... And then a couple of people have expressed a need for more clothing or food options. Obviously there are limitations to what I can do, and it'll probably take more than one person to get something off the ground, but I'm in the idea stages right now if you would like to throw them at me.

[ She sighs, feeling as if she's been talking a little quickly. ] Basically, I want to help make life a little easier around here. If anything else, I'll be willing to join in on something that already exists.

[ A glance downwards. Cheater, she's written a little list to get her through her points! But this one's for Blaine: ]

Oh. One other thing, I was wondering if anyone else has gone home and come back and what that experience has been like as far as memory and continuity go.

That's all. You guys have a great day!

[ Also, this chick will be causing a ruckus out on the streets today with her new motorbike. It is loud, those wheelies are completely accidental, and it travels from 0 to 60 faster than anything she's ever driven.

Sure, it's exciting, but also hella dangerous and very embarrassing. ]

[ Hello there everyone! Hakuryuu's face pans into the feed with a small, yet delicate smile. ] Ah, I have a question...

[ He seems to hesitate at first, almost as if mildly distracted by something, but finally opens his mouth to speak: ]

I decided to experiment with some of the different types of fruits and food items I have found here since my arrival, but... [ He allows his voice to drift off, idly moving the camera from himself to the nearby table where he stood.

There, scattered neatly across to the very brim of the table was a large array of various types of food. The prince seems almost bashful by the display, yet finally turns his attention back to address the public. ] ... it seems I have made far too much.

So as for my question: would anyone like some of this? I believe it is a good idea to share what we have, when our circumstances give us so little. However, I understand that I cannot feed everyone, so if you were to give me some ingredients, I might be able to make a separate meal of your choosing.

[ There, with a small bow of his head, the boy continues. ] This is left for you to decide, but I would like to give anyone who is in need a home cooked meal their fill. Thank you.

[ One last glance over to the food before... click! ]
