[Video 01] UN: Delilah Dirk - Arrival
[What appears on camera is a number of things in very short order. Someone is very clearly coming to grips with the technology. There is a flash of skirt, booted leg, of a woman's face tanned from a long time under the sun, and a mass of chestnut hair. Finally, a pair of deep brown eyes focus on it.]
What the bloody hell is this thing?
[She hasn't been pulled from any universe before - first time for her - and in any event, the technology is so advanced it's just one step away from magic for her. But it's not magic, because that would be silly.]
Is it on? That's what the light means, doesn't...? Right.
[She steps back a bit, moving this way and that as if trying to arrange the right angle. And then she begins.]
What the hell was any of that? I'd say someone slipped me some rather potent hash-hish if it weren't for that beach and those...odd ducks who welcomed me.
[She won't mention waking up naked. That had been an experience she wouldn't like to repeat. Or the part where she'd tried to run and had stumbled about like a toddler. None of that gets mentioned. Frankly, she's sitting at the junction of freaked out and amazed.]
So where am I? Who's responsible? And where the hell is my boat?
[She'll find the flying ketch soon enough - it just wasn't moored when the tide came in.]

She looked thoughtful.
"I'm planning on exploring the waters a bit. I suppose that could be something done with others - I'm sure there's people here who'd be interested in what is found, or some such."

That seemed pretty definitive.
"Well sure! I'm one of those people! Who wouldn't want to be present on some cool sea fairing adventure?"

She means 'great' in a very specific way, there.

They should ease you into the monster, really. Luz was very aware this was painting a picture of the former town, but as far as she was concerned, it was well earned.
"Can't wait! Maybe I'll even bring a friend!"

"There'll be room. Come by in the morning, there'll be a breakfast in it for you."
no subject
"Will do, and thanks ahead of time!"
