forty second dance | video; tiny bit forward dated to midmorning!
[The face on the screen, when first she appears, looks a bit somber.]
I guess the longer you live here, the longer you learn to expect the unexpected, huh? But even then, I didn't think - I mean, Halloween passed, so I thought maybe nothing awful would happen. I've lived here for two years and it still catches me off guard, things like that. I just hope it wasn't anyone with powers behind it. If it was, they should be ashamed of themselves. But that's not what I wanted to talk about, even though I'm really sorry to anyone who saw things that hurt them.
[But then her expression brightens considerably.]
I wanted to talk about, um, being here so long, but it's not as self centered as it sounds, I promise - I guess I just wanted to thank everyone. I think I might have said already, but it's been two years today, and even though the first few months I hated it and just wanted to go home, I think I wouldn't be the same person I am now if I hadn't come here. Not just a different person, but not as good of a person, either. I mean, I've learned so much, and so many people have helped me learn that stuff, both stuff about me and stuff about life, and I wouldn't trade that for the world. Maybe not for any world. I can't help but feel like this is my home. I've met so many people, so many amazing people, people I think of as family who I would never have even known about otherwise. And a lot of them aren't here anymore, some of the best people I've ever met, but I would much rather have known them and lost them than the alternative, you know?
[Her voice gets a bit thick, though it's not in the least unhappy, and she has to pause for a moment to recollect herself.]
So I guess, just - even though horrible things can happen here and things can get very bad, and everything seems dark, I just hope everyone here can find as much light in this island as I've been able to. But I know not everyone's as lucky as me, and I know there are people who have been through things I can't even imagine, so... I'm not the best with technology, but I guess since I'm saying this to everyone, you can all tell what my NV number is, so if everything gets to be too much - there's always someone you can talk to, even if I don't know you.
[Filtered to Fakir]
I need to talk to you.
[Filtered to Gilbert]
Are you busy?

Anyway, I'm glad I got the chance. And I'm glad I got to meet you here.
no subject
I'm glad I got to meet you, too. I think a lot of people hate it here at first, but they don't really realize until later that it's an opportunity all on it's own.

Anyway, you should come by Kahve later. You get a free drink for your anniversary here.
no subject
Sure. In a few hours, though, is that okay?

Hey, Roxas, it's me!

[Quickly, he wraps up what he's doing and clocks out. But he still starts making her favorite drink, whatever that might be.]
Just give me a minute.

[She grins brightly, taking a seat as she waits for him.]
Re: action;
Here you go.
action;
Thanks! It looks really amazing. I think I'll wait for it to cool a little bit, though. Oh, but I bet it'll be good! Thank you for making it for me, it was really nice of you, Roxas.
[/bounces]
action;
No problem. It's for a special occasion.
[He's got a drink too but it's more caffeinated]
action;
Still, it was nice of you. I'll have to surprise you with something to make it even sometime!
