[She clearly has no idea what she's doing. For starters, the video is just of the wall to begin with. Mostly she's just hit buttons until something seemed to happen.]

Is this...? Oh dear, this is so dreadfully confusing. Well...

[Finally she comes into view, curls all arranged perfectly despite her absence of maids to attend her, or near enough. Admittedly, her hat is hiding most of it, but that was the novelty of such a large hat, and she was glad she had them, because doing her hair was going to become... difficult. Almost as difficult as lacing up her corset by herself.

She's also sitting on the stairs of the Welcome Hall, and somewhere between a frown and a pout on her face. She was doing alright with being here, some part of her was even excited... but... well she couldn't go out through the water. It would ruin her dress, and on top of everything else, she disliked feeling trapped, even if she was used to it.]

I'm told that others can see this? I'm a little confused but... does anyone know how to leave the buildings without... well, getting damp?

[She leans on her hand, sighing a little, just a bit bored too.]

It isn't normally this wet--it'll probably slow down in a few days.

[She picks up a little at that, smiling widely.]

Oh, well that's a relief. Has a river flooded to cause this?

Well--to be honest--I don't really know. I know there's a river not far from here, but I don't know how it'd flood this badly.

[Well, hello. As if Castle's going to let a gorgeous woman on his video feed languish.]

Seems as though you need a boat.

[Seems as though he needed to locate one.]

[Smile for him, because he's not so bad to gaze upon either.]

A boat seems a little much for a foot of water. But I suppose a raft might do? I might close my eyes and pretend I am Venice instead. [Not that she has ever seen Venice, but it seems nice.]

I'm sad I don't have a gondola.

[But she does have a point.]

Wouldn't your dress get all wet on a raft?

[ooc - is she stuck at the palace where she first entered?]

[Diva is amazed to see this new arrival, purely because she's so elegant and refined. It's really nothing more than a guess or a feeling, but from that perfectly curled hair and how she's dressed, Diva has a feeling that this woman is nobility. Her thoughts immediately jump to hoping that she's a queen or a princess out of girlish wonder, though she restrains that excitement. Well, somewhat.

It doesn't stop her from being straightforward and ignoring what she had actually asked.]

Ah, your hair is beautiful! It must take forever to get it to look like that.

[Georgiana is taken back for a moment, but then she smiles, however briefly. Focus on how the strange device worked.

Reaching her hand up to tuck a stray curl behind her ear with a gloved hand, she shrugged.]

Well, it's a little tricky to do so by myself, usually I have maids to do it for me. But, alas, one must do what one can.

Oh, maids... [This certainly gives a little more to her idea, so she continues enthusiastically] Well, I wish you luck! I know how hard that can be. A long time ago I used to have maids to tend to me, and even after we didn't have them anymore, I had my Chevalier to take care of me.

[A sigh] There's no luck with that here, though. It's really a pain!

[The style of her dress catches Hermione's attention right away. This woman is either from a distinct era or she's exceptionally good at donning a costume.]

Yes, we can see you. [She bites her lip.] I'm afraid not. Everything is flooded at the moment.

Did you just arrive?

You can? Oh, good. [She really didn't know which buttons she had hit. Though when she says everything is flooded, she bites her lip and sighs.] Perhaps I should just go back to my room then. Since I can't get out and I'd rather not have wet stockings all day if I can help it.

[She nods, yes, she was new.] Not a day or so ago...

[It's always hit and miss - even with people from further in the future.] I understand. My shoes are drying in my room. [Which is thankfully not on the first floor.] Do you need anything? I don't mind going out if you're hungry or thirsty.

[Hermione could never leave someone to fend for themselves in Asgard. The city is mad enough as it is.]

It...gets better. [Sort of.] I mean, less confusing.

Climbing works. Some of the buildings have little ladders on the sides? They're fire escapes, so— Just... climb them and walk on the roofs! Then where you get to where you want to be, climb down.

Otherwise? [ a grimace ]

[She tries to process for a moment, how exactly she would even do that...] I... guess I could but...

[This girl was suggesting such unlady like behaviour as climbing all over things? Well.. perhaps she envied her a little, but it was certainly not something Georgiana would be doing.] I think I am stuck here for the time being. That and I don't really know where I am going at all even if I could get on the rooves.

Oh! [ It doesn't surprise her given the time of "month" but she has to amends her strategy if this woman isn't familiar with Asgard.

In the meantime, she smiles. ] Are... you new here?

Wait until it goes away. It's just water, though. Not even a lot of water.

Well yes, it is just water. But water can make you dreadfully sick sometimes. [She smiles though, thinking.] My daughts never seem to mind though, I've caught them up to their knees in mud the very moment they think they can.

[She rans a hand over her skirts, smoothing them out.] But, I am no child, and I happen to like this dress unstained.

Not too creative, are you? It's called a pair of rain boots.

[She smiles perfectly, not even missing a beat. Whether she was creative or not had little bearing on the matter.]

What are rain boots?

Just what they sound like.

[Francis would not be a proper gentleman if he didn't work to get that pout off of that pretty face. He knows Georgiana's kind. He's courted them, as well. Not that he's attempting that, oh no.]

Perhaps you could find a proper sir to sweep you off of your feet, mademoiselle? [a shrug] It should not be difficult granted you are a beautiful woman.

[She laughs lightly, smiling briefly, old habits die hard and she quitens down after a moment, playful really. This game she knew at least.]

A proper sir? I was not aware there was one to be had. In any case, I am married. [And that she was usually sure, was the end of such flirtations. Even if her husband wasn't here.]

And it looks like your husband is not in arm's distance to keep you safe. Any respectable man would see that his lovely wife is taken care of. [This man.. Well, he's flashing her a teasing look.] Even if it means another comes to her rescue.
