Oh dear...

[Elraine's feed clicks on as she sweeps two fingers over the surface of her desk to show a layer of dust that has settled on top during her absence.]

The guard did say I was gone for awhile, but this seems a bit ridiculous. Would anyone mind telling me what day it is? [She pauses, looking mildly frustrated while trying to conjure up a memory.] Umm...Actually, I don't suppose any of you remember last seeing me sometime? I can't...really remember what I was doing before. Or the day.

[There's a moment of silence as she tries to sweep up some more dust before brushing her hands on her pants.] Other than that, what's been going on? I doubt this is some sort of joke, so I must have missed something, right? I'd really appreciate an update.

[She gives a small bow of her head and continues looking around her room (and murmuring something about cats and burnt toast) until she finally remembers to shut off her feed.]

Yeesh, finally got this thing to finally work properly. [A soft mutter, before he continues on.]

All right, it's been nine days since a lot of us arrived. For those who found their companions-- good for you, and make sure to stick with them. Figured that since it doesn't look like we're moving anytime soon, then settling down for the time being ain't a bad idea.

For anyone in Heimdall, I'm setting up my room for a clinic. I don't care what this whole thing about powers or whatever that was granted to us is about, but right now it's too weak to help anyway. I'm sticking to traditional methods, so if that's not your cup of tea, you can go all the way to the hospital for all I care.

Check-ups are free of charge, anything else is negotiable.

Non-residents can come too if they want, but it ain't gonna be easy on you to stay too long in the building. Tried it elsewhere, and it was just one hell of a headache to deal with. Until I can set up a proper clinic, this'll do.

Got any questions?

[Private to Kon & Kuchiha;]

Look, guys!

[Do you see this? It's Toki with a handful of dirt containing a tiny plant sprout -- he makes a face at it for a moment, and suddenly it grows, roots slithering across his hands and stem lengthening until a single white flower unfolds.]

I learned to do this! It's pretty cool, huh?

[And now he tries to untangle his fingers, only to end up dropping the whole plant. He yelps, jumps, then looks down with a clearly distressed face.]

Oh. I stepped on it.

[/private]

It's pretty cold, huh? I've been trying out my power, but it's hard to keep plants alive in the snow.

What kind of powers does everyone else have? I bet we could do some pretty cool things if we worked together!

[After her startling arrival and running about the place in a panic, Elraine had somehow managed to stumble upon her room...Where she then promptly passed out on her bed while completely ignoring the fact that her pants were covered in slush.
Sadly, this "dream" of hers doesn't seem to be evaporating anytime soon, and upon awakening, she was back into a slight panic while trying to remember the maid's instructions without being completely overwhelmed. So have a little audio post of Elle trying out her bracelet:]

I guess it's working? Testing...This is a little confusing... [Despite the exasperated tone to her voice, there's a mix of heavy fatigue and a strained quality that's from her trying to remain calm.]

Ummm, for everyone that can hear this, I'm Elraine Figarette. [There's a long pause but mostly because she's not sure if anyone can really hear this. That and she's anxious about how much she should say and how much would be too much.]

Okay, I'm going to name a few things and places...So, if any of them mean something to you, can you please contact me? However you do it...

...Nitan Empire, Naginzeria...Nagin, Beigar...Militaire, Maille...Troy.

[One more long pause, and she let's out a sigh.] I'm not too sure how this...is even happening, but I would appreciate more information about what's going on. Thank you.

[ The video starts off rather normally, with one blond guy blinking in surprise at the screen before brightening. He's walking around, from the movement of the scenery behind him, but he pauses after he notices it's finally working. ]

Ah- finally! Haah, I thought I'd never get it working.

[ He starts walking again, smiling a little now that he has someone, or well thing, to talk to. ]

Anyway, my name's Dino- a new visitor, I guess. I guess I should say I've been taking a look around the place, but there's really not that much to look at- it's kinda weird how things are here, huh? Anyway, those maids weren't really that informative, so this communication channel's probably a better place to start, right? I was kinda wondering wh-

[ He abruptly cuts off then and the screen jerks with him; the next view is a very clear one of Dino on his back on the floor, looking dazed. Kids this is why you should look where you're walking. Especially when it's already slippery out. ]

O-Ow, jeez, that hurt...
