001 (VIDEO)

- a camera? That wasn't there before!

[The lower half of someone's face filters into focus, right up against the lens. Hope you don't mind an extreme close-up of someone's chin, because that's what you're getting while Jane tries to sort this out.]

Roxy, are you even listening to me?

[Meanwhile, this other person's squealing up a storm in the background.] Janeeeeeeey! Can you fucking believe this shit? It's, like, one second, I'm scramming from the scene -- ravenous creeps all over the damn place, Jane, you wouldn't even believe -- and now!

[There's a pause.] Heh... I hope you're not mad at me still! It's not like I meant to fall on you.

[And then another excited squeal.] Janeyyyy! Come here, ya damn tightass. [Roxy suddenly pulls the other girl in for yet another forceful hug, just before noticing the object in her hands.] What the fuck are you doing with that shit, eh? Didn't I tell you to toss it?

I'm trying to figure out when- [She lets out a little yelp and drops the Tiaratop. It clatters down to the dirt, still recording the girls' feet.] -when it got a camera feature! Something's really fishy about this.

[A pause as Jane leans down to pick up the device. She looks right into the camera.]

Wait, is this thing recording?

I told you not to trust the Batterwitch's shit, Jane. When are you ever gonna learn?

[That last question catches her attention, though.] Oh, really? [She shoves her face right against Jane's cheek to fit into the camera's view.

And now she's making kissy faces at the camera and winking suggestively. Yep.]

((OOC: Jane and Roxy! Apologies for the bright colors ;_;))

[The fuck. Adding onto Roxy's question]

You mean it just turned into one of these NV things?

[greenshift]

The network we're talking to each other on, duhh! And I guess so, I don't really know how it works.

[bestie]

So do I have one, too? Haha, it'd be totally awesome if I had my martini glass here...

[Give her a moment to fish her smart phone out from her pocket.] I guess this must be mine. Lame!

[mustaches]

How would you communicate through a martini-

[No, never mind, she doesn't really care to know.]

Well, that's one question answered. I knew this thing didn't have a camera before.

[greenshift]

Yeah, everyone has one! Which is really good 'cause it makes it makes it easy to keep in touch with everyone as long as they keep their NV with them.

[bestie]

Sounds like a sweet deal. Maybe we can use our NVs to tell our favorite dudes we're together now, eh, Jane?

[No, she doesn't even know who's here or not yet. But she's still pretty excited to be with at least one of her friends.

She turns back to look at Jade.] So what's your name?

[mustaches]

Maybe they could figure out how to get us back home...

[Jane still looks supremely bothered by this entire situation.]

[greenshift]

You might be able to if they're here! What're their names?

[ Best stick to that positive rather than bring up quite yet that they might not be here. ]

My name's Jade Harley! What about you?

[bestie]

[Roxy looks incredulous at this point.] Why would you want to go back home already?

I'm Roxy. [She jerks a thumb over at her best friend.] And this here is Janey.

[mustaches]

Why wouldn't I want to?

[She turns back towards Jade, smiling politely.]

Nice to meet you, Jade.

[bestie]

[A brief look of hurt flashes on Roxy's face, but she doesn't say anything to her response. Instead, she decides to answer Jade's previous question.]

Jake English and Dirk Strider.

[greenshift]

[ :O!!!!!! ]

I know Jake! He's here too, so you'll be able to meet him. You're his friends?
