[When the video turns on, Usagi looks... well, honestly downright haggard. But Usagi, when exhausted has a bad habit of masking and thus, acts even more bubbly and energetic than usual. And before you ask, no, she's not fine. But she will lie and say she is.

But don't mention the bags under her eyes, that's rude.]

HI EVERYONE!

[She's waving at the screen excitedly in some hopes to not let on the deep exhaustion she's badly hiding.]

My name is Usagi Tsukino! I uh... met some of you before when we first got here but couldn't really properly introduce myself! BUT I CAN TALK AGAIN! [And she's decided to make that everyone's problem.] Actually, I've been able to talk for AWHILE but ANYWAY! So hi!

Anywho! Do you know what I realized last night? I mean, probably a LOT of people have realized this actually but I doooon't think anyone has said it, or, at least I don't think so! Maybe I missed it! Sorry if someone already said something like this!

[She's rambling.]

Anyhow! I realized that while lots and lots and lots and lots of people may already know lots and lots and lots of other people cause ya know, so many of us came from Deerington, there are JUST as many people who have absolutely no clue who anyone else is or where we are or why we're here! I mean, I'm those last two too, but I lucked out on knowing some of you!

SO! So so so! I thought, hey! Why not introduce yourself and then we can all get to know one another and we can all help one another and it will be awesome and we can be all amazing together!

I'LL START!

My name is Usagi Tsukino! I'm originally from Tokyo, Japan! I love cats and rabbits, food, and video games and my favorite hobbies are sleeping and eating but oh oh oh! I like shopping, making all sorts of new friends, playing video games, reading manga and comics, aaaaaand well actually I can't think of anything else right now!

Now it's your turn!

((OOC Notes: Feel free to tag other people, it's essentially an open post.))

[Was Vira-Lorr a tiny bit tempted to mention the bags under her eyes? Yes, yes she was. She'd been struggling a small amount with her sleep, though going to duel and spar helped get it out of her system aa little bit. She was burning the energy off. But maybe not. Usagi would be fine, she was sure.]

This isn't a bad idea. They don't give us that free, awful dating app after all.

[Wince. she shouldn't give the universe ideas.]

...at least yet. Let's hope they never figure that one out. It was so horrid. But yes, this isn't a bad idea. I'm Vira-Lorr, and I am from another world called Agarest. I am a member of a race called the Onelthes. And I would like to think I'm always open for new experiences. I run a little fortune teller's shop in Cellar Door. Feel free to stop by anytime.

[Should she feel insulted that Vira-Lorr keeps saying this isn't a bad idea? Cause she said it twice and it feels like this is an insult. Maybe it's the lack of sleep.]

Outside of Chloe, no one ever used mine. And I haven't seen her yet. [But also, she's really super grateful it isn't around because it revealed she was a princess.]

You already have a business up and running?! Geeze!

[The good news was it was more an accidental repetition. Vira-Lorr wasn't trying to be insulting at least.]

Chloe... [She sighed, dragging her fingers through her hair. She wished her friend was here.] That girl was good at using that one. I think she had the right humor for it. I... haven't seen her yet either. I've been watching for she and Max.

[Vira-Lorr closed her eyes and pushed the thought away.]

Mmm? [A thin laugh] Oh, it's not that hard to set up a fortune teller's stall. Don't give me too much credit. I have a room in my house that's detached. I just made sure to have a crystal ball and cards and decorated it. It's really about ambiance. I don't even have proper clientele yet.

I miss her... [She takes a deep breath and then smiles.] But thank you, I mean, not like we can do this every month and who knows what next month will bring... But it should be okay, I'm sure!

I would ask if crystal balls actually work, but I know the answer. [It's yes, Beryl and Wiseman both had a thing with them.] I have spare rooms, I wonder if I could do something with them.

[But she had wanted to keep them available in case more of her loved ones showed up but...]

We'll probably want to figure something out to make greetings simpler the longer we're here. You're right about that. [She didn't add the implied 'if others are going to show up.' She was hoping that they would.]

They're more or less a tool. If one has a gift, they can allow scrying to work through them. If not? The skilled tongue can use them to help you see what you wanted or needed to see in yourself. [which was a nice way of saying "Con Artists can use them too"] I'm using it to help me focus my sight. Looking ahead is ... difficult to do with clarity as is.

You could do that, or I'm sure you can find shop space if you want. I was just fortunate that the room fit the way it did. My house isn't nearly as big as it used to be. Just the one bedroom now, so I have a bit of room to spare. It works for me. I don't know if everyone would like having a shop space attached to their home.

Did Peter-san make it through? Think we can convince him to make another pamphlet?

Uh... I'm gonna just nod and smile cause I don't know what that means. [Usagi, that part is supposed to be thought, not said aloud.]

Shop space? First I have to do something anyone would want, Vira-Lorr. So it's entirely not about a when but "if."

Yes, I believe he did, and I expect he would be willing to do something like that again. It seems in his nature to try and help others understand this place, and he's much better at explaining.

[She giggled a little.] Don't worry about it, Usagi. You're a talented enough young woman. You maintained patrols for almost all the time I remember you being in the nightmare. You can do whatever you wish here, I should think.

But... you look a little tired. Perhaps after some rest you could think on that sort of thing.

I'll give him a call and see if he's started anything already.

Heh, well, I guess it just... sorta depends on what I want to do. Haven't really figured that out.

Ah... yeah... I'm trying.

If he hasn't already begun recording, I'm sure that he will start very soon. He'd probably enjoy the call either way.

[She sighed, resting her chin on her hand.]

You'll find something. We have time, and the whole 'cooperation' thing that I think the people here are working with? It should allow you to help in whatever way you think is best. At the very least, you were never known for having trouble in the combat patrols. I'm sure you'd be capable there.

[She didn't say anything about Serenity. After all, Usagi had been on those patrols for months, long before Vira-Lorr had ever known about Serenity. So she knew that she could take care of herself even if she sometimes seemed a little bubbly to her.]

I've been having a little trouble resting myself. Not as bad as the nightmare, but it was neaarly impossible towards the end. Still, I hope you get some soon.

Ahahaha, maybe we won't have to do... patrols this time. Maybe the people here will actually help us. They have so far!

[Also, Usagi would rather not have her abilities mentioned.]

Maybe I should go back to school? I dunno! I'm still getting my feet under me... when I'm not tripping over them.

Mmm, I wouldn't worry too much. Winter has things in hand, I think. Plenty of people signing up to be hunters. If you wanted to attend Mutter, I'm quite sure they'd take you in. I know I won't be actively working with the Hunters myself. I'd rather hang back in support and training for the time being.

[Vira-Lorr wasn't going to say anymore on that topic. And she certainly didn't want to actually speak about her powers. Being able to stand with the combat patrols was one thing, but those? Those were private.]

Are you staying with Makoto and Atsushi again?

Ah... [She needs to meet Winter still since... she is still very sure she and Rei are still very much together. But should she say anything to her before Rei makes introductions? What if she says something to upset Winter?] Well, I'm glad. Once I can focus better I'll figure out what I wanna do.

I am! Even in the same house!

[The last she'd spoken with Winter, they were doing quite well together. She was just glad to see the woman smile a little, as taciturn as she could be, though admittedly she didn't talk relationship stuff with Usagi generally.]

At least we seem to have time. It's kind of nice to not feel as rushed as we were before. The locals are being... much better than I'd grown used to. Then again, I believe they're actually people now so that's part of it.

Good. I'll have to come by sometime and bring the three of you a housewarming gift. I'm living on my own for the moment at the edge of Cellar Door. I decided I wanted a bit more of a quiet life, so the house I picked out is just a one-bedroom.

You don't have to get us anything, Vira-Lorr-san. Not unless I can get you one too.

Well, I could hardly deny you the fun of finding me a house warming gift in return, now could I? We can trade in that case. It'll be fun!

[Knowing Makoto, she was thinking of a nice little planter for flowers for the two of them to further liven up the place.]

I'm on it!
