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 ;_;))

Comments

[vinovidivici]

Uh. [ ??? Kinda weirded out by that "hot stuff" comment. He almost says something about it but then has the thought that she might just call everyone that, so he decides to ignore it. Sadly his face moves quicker than his mind and he's already reacted to the surprise/embarrassment/age gap with a kind of blinky frowny jaw-dropping face seizure which will hopefully solve the problem of her thinking he's hot.

anyway if he's anything "hot" he's hotshit ]

-- Not really.

[mustaches]

Don't let it ruffle your feathers; she talks to everyone that way.

[Jane turns her nose up at Roxy and maneuvers the Tiaratop so that it's only facing her.]

So you're another one of the people who lives here? I mean, who isn't from here?

[bestie]

Ouch, Janey. You're gonna ruin his self-esteem!

[And now she's trying to peer over Jane's shoulder to keep looking at this hot dude.]

[vinovidivici]

[ Mildly reassured. He's just going to focus on the sensible girl for now until he can work out what the hell he's gotten himself into. ]

Yeah. I'm from a few thousand miles and about eighty years thattaway. [ Pointing eastwards, if the Noo Yoik accent didn't clue them in. ]

[mustaches]

Eighty years? What's that supposed to mean?

[Because there's no way what he seems to be suggesting is even possible. No way.]

[bestie]

[Roxy doesn't look very comfortable by his comment.]

Yeah, yeah! I can tell you're from Noo Yoik, dude. Same here... though I'm upstate. [She says it teasingly, but her face still looks a little caught off-guard.]

[vinovidivici]

[ drunk upstate girl? explains a lot

The sudden uneasiness after they were more concerned about a laptop camera and flirting definitely doesn't go unnoticed. ]

Yeah. It's 2012, if that means anything to you. But you get folks from the past and the future fetchin' up here, and some I'm not even sure when they're from. [ He grins. Come on girls, you didn't give a shit about this stuff a moment ago! ] Wassamadda, you never time-travel before?

[mustaches]

No, of course not! [She looks around suspiciously, as if something in the diamond could actually tell her whether or not he's lying.] ... At least not until now, I guess, if you're telling the truth. It was just 2011 for us. But that's crazy talk!
