[When the NV turns on, it's clearly by accident; or, at the least, not intended to be on quite yet. It's aimed incorrectly as he presses buttons on it, giving glimpse of his shoulder and then the ceiling and then a blue eye, enough for people who have spoken to or encountered him to recognize who he is. Then he finally gets the filter in place.]

[ Today, you see a smiling Discord early in the morning. Which is to say, his usual smirking expression graces the screen. Behind him is a room with odd wallpaper of wiggling fruit and animals. ]

So much festive cheer. Many a person rushing to their attics and basements, to get out yearly forgotten boxes filled with decorations that will only be up for less than a month, max.

SO I think I will put out my own interior decorations. And I'll give you some as well -

[ The camera starts to zoom back, revealing a chandelier sticking straight up, with Discord standing on the ceiling as though it is the floor. ]

- free of charge.

Happy Holidays.

[Behold, Siren's Port, for Alouette is making her first appearance upon the network. Why? Because today she feels she has something to show off today. The video opens with a shot of the young girl standing in a hallway, adorn in a violet dress and looking pleased as punch. She speaks, of course, with a french accent.]

Bonjour, everyone, I am Alouette Emeline Mercier Bouchard! As of late I have been getting quite caught up in the holiday spirit. However, before I reveal my decorations, I have come to realize that I have a bit of a.. Problem. Perhaps someone here can answer.
[She looks a bit troubled.] You see in the world where I am from our calender is different. I was born on the thirty fourth day of the twelfth month, and it has come to my attention that there is no thirty fourth day this month. Or any month, why one even only has twenty-eight days! Really, what am I supposed to do about that? Does this mean I am going to have to be fourteen forever?

Normally I would not have a problem with this, but if I had to be stuck at a particular age, I really would prefer it be sixteen.

[Alouette is lost a moment in thought, then jumps as if she had awoken from a daydream.]

Ahem! W- Well enough of that. People of Siren's Port, prepare to feast your eyes upon a four day project from the mind of a fourteen year old racing genius!

[She holds her NV out and away from her as she pushes the doors open, revealing a ballroom. Or, rather, an upside down ballroom, the chandeliers are all pointing upward.]

Oh la la la!! [beat] la la!!

[In shock the NV is dropped, conveniently left pointed upward to show a toy race-track that covers half of the ballroom floor, with all sorts of twists, turns, loop the loops as well as many little toy decorations of trees, snow mounds, reindeer, candy canes and elves to give the appearance of the 'north pole'.]

Wh- Wh- WH- WH- WHAT IS GOING ON!! How? WH- [Completely flustered, there is only one person she can think of to blame for this madness!]

R- RECEEEETTE!!!!

[There's no video to go with this post to the network, although those who have grown up around television since the mid 1980s might recognize the voice. It is rather, uh, iconic. But either way, it's deep and slightly rough, halting and proper, with just the slightest metallic edge to it.]

Greetings, fellow citizens of Siren's Port. [Optimus Prime may actually be the only being in the history of ever who can say something like that and have it not sound like some cliched joke.] I have found that it is customary to greet the other residents here after arriving, just as it is customary to exchange information with them. And while my... introduction is later than others' have been, and while I have no information to offer as of yet, I do require... assistance.

I have been informed [~~through some srs network stalking tbh~~] that certain rules this planet normally functions by do not hold true within this city. That we are held prisoner by something known only as 'The Core', and the attitudes of those native to this island are not kind towards those of us brought here by no choice of our own.

I require information. About this city, the abilities of the people here, as well as the object known as 'The Core'. I do not have items to trade or currency to give, but I can offer this in return:

Should you find yourself in need assistance or under attack, I will do my best to come to your aid.

[Oh, right, he should probably-] My name is Optimus Prime, and while I have been brought here the same way as most, I will work to return those who wish to leave to the homes they came from.

[Autobot out.]
