[001] video

[tracery]

[ The video is shaky, a soft voice talking quickly about how it was hard to figure out. She had been here for a full day and had just sat in the first center she saw and tried to figure out the Gear. Aine would always tell her that if she ended up outside the castle that she needed to establish contacts with someone…it would help others in finding her. Or something…

However, when the video was on, she just stared at it. What did she say? Did she say her name…did she introduce Squishy? What about Aine? What if she revealed too much? It wasn’t so bad to be out of the castle….

But she really needed to get help with her dress and change into these clothes. Oh, if Aine was here it would be so much better. There was a blush now as she continued to stare. Finally, when she opened her mouth, she uttered one word… ]

Kiah.

[ And then the video goes blank. ]

Comments

[video] you have no idea how tempted I was to have him say 'bless you'

[meteorman]

Excuse me?

[is her universal translator broken?]

[video]

[tracery]

[ Finally, the video comes back on and she takes a little bit to adjust again before speaking quietly. ]

I apologize...I...I don't believe I'm used to trying to contact people in such a way.

[meteorman]

[Ohhhhh okay, that's reasonable.]

Yes, well. I suppose the 'gear would be confusing if one had never encountered anything like it before. Are there no electronics in your universe?

[tracery]

N-Not necessarily, we use crystals to communicate to each other. Magic.

[ Kiah's doing everything to avoid looking at the actual screen. ]

[shiro2hero]

... Is everything all right?

[tracery]

[ After awhile, Kiah comes back to answer. ]

Y-Yes, I am sorry.

video;

[shiro2hero]

It's fine. Nothing to apologize for.

It can be a lot to adjust to, suddenly showing up here. At least you didn't start yelling orders when you turned it on.

[video]

[journalname]

Is that your name?

[video]

[tracery]

[ A small nod greets him. ]

Y..Yes.

[journalname]

[He smiles.]

It is good to meet you, then. My name is Asgore. Are you newly arrived here?

[modulatingphases]

Well 'Kiah' to you too.

[Zack you are too young to be making such terrible dad jokes.]

[tracery]

[ Okay, that gains a smile. It's awkward and shy, but it's there! ]

I mean, hello, my name is Kiah.

video; please ignore my fail that is why I should not phone tag

[modulatingphases]

[His dork powers succeed once more!]

Nice to meet you, Kiah. I'm Zack. You must be new around here.

[video]

[defyingfrigidity]

... I'm sorry, is there something I can help you with?

[tracery]

[ After a bit, a very sheepish Kiah comes back. ]

Yes...I...uhm, I'm new here and these clothes they gave me are fine, but...this dress I'm in for my coronation isn't necessarily the easiest to get out of.

[ Finally! A woman! She could be a little more honest with her. ]

[defyingfrigidity]

Coronation?

[Elsa's eyebrows raise at that. It's been some time since she's met another royal here, after all!]

Ah, I completely understand. Is there anyone around to help you? I know it can be tricky, doing it yourself, but this is the last place you'll want to be stuck in a dress like that.

[Elsa can't help but laugh a little. Geez, she can't even remember the last time she wore a dress period, with how much she and Anna traveled for a while...]

[mon_dieu]

...

Ees zat your way of saying hello?

[tracery]

No! I mean...not really, I kind of panicked.

[mon_dieu]

Well, zat ees understandable. And I have seen worst introductions.

[This is his way of being comforting.]

video

[bent_the_world]

Are...you okay?

[tracery]

Y-Yes, I believe so. Just concerned about my sudden removal from my castle...

[bent_the_world]

Yeah, it's pretty shocking, huh?

But this place is really safe, and time's really weird here. None passes back where you came from, while you're here.

I'm Korra!

[dreamsofahero]

*that's a nervous newcomer if Sion ever saw one...*

Well, I suppose that's one way to introduce yourself...

*his tone and smile are nothing if not friendly, though(

[tracery]

A-Ah, yes, I suppose I didn't find a way to properly introduce myself...

[dreamsofahero]

*chuckles*

Would you prefer to try again?
