First Challenge - Video

[shorterinperson]

[ When the video turns on, a short haired woman appears on screen. She appears in her late twenties, possibly early thirties, and is focusing very intently on the screen. In fact, her eyes seem to be focused on something apart from the screen, in front or behind it. The truly unusual thing here is that the whole image is obscured by an odd purple glow, almost like a flame. Finally her focus snaps onto the screen itself as she realizes it’s recording, and the flame disappears. A satisfied grin reaches her face, and colors come into focus: fiery red hair and vivid purple eyes. ]

There it goes! And they say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. This is different from the sort of communication I’m used to, and I’m not sure what all of these buttons are for, but it seems to be working, isn’t it? Who am I speaking to? Admiral? I never did catch your name.

In any case, where is this criminal I’m meant to be ‘redeeming’? I’d like to start right away, if you don’t mind. I believe I mentioned that there may be a war on at home? Well, come on then, where is he?

Comments

your hair caught his attention.

You're speaking to all of us. What was that haze?

I think we have to wait for our... I don't think we should call them 'criminals', but we're supposed to wait.

Eddie Russett, nice to meet you.

have a thing for redheads, eh~?

[shorterinperson.livejournal.com]

And you. I'm Alanna. But I don't really have time to wait.

What should I call them, then?

he can only see red. so it sticks out like hell. :D

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

Neither do I, but I think time stands still at home? So I'm told.

Inmates. Criminal implies they've broken rules. Some of them might not be Rulebreakers.

I realize you can hardly judge these things by looks alone, but you don't seem like an old dog.

I'm sure my husband would agree with you.

[ Shot DOWN. ]

[Eh, he'd be more devastated if he had more reason for flirting than because Buffy keeps flirting with guys.]

Then he's got good tastes.

Pardon me for not being loquacious. Welcome aboard. I think M. Russett has the explanations in hand for now.

[ She makes a face at you. ]

How do you do that? With the words?

[She can now see and hear a very haggard looking young Frenchman who is avoiding looking directly into the camera.]

Is it a problem?

I'm not good or quick, but there are buttons on the communication device that correspond with the written alphabet.

[notiaraincluded.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it takes a minute to get used to that thing. You're actually talking to pretty much everyone, though it gets the introduction bit out of the way.

By the way, I'm Luke, also a Warden. It'll probably be at least a couple days before you get an Inmate.

[shorterinperson.livejournal.com]

I'm still trying to figure out what all these buttons are for.

I'm Alanna. Is it true that time has been slowed outside of this vessel?

[notiaraincluded.livejournal.com]

Most of us are pretty helpful so feel free to ask whatever questions you have.

That's what I've been told. For those of us who actually have other things going on back home.

[rass-bestie.livejournal.com]

Some of them are for privacy filters or as I see you've notice, written text.

[shorterinperson.livejournal.com]

What are privacy filters?

[rass-bestie.livejournal.com]

Between myself and yourself.

[Warden Filter]

To the wardens at large.

[Unfiltered]

You can use your imagination, filter it from or to anyone.

[WAR AT HOME YOU SAY. T'Pol relates. :|] Assignments come on the fifteenth and thirtieth; you'll have to wait until then.

[shorterinperson.livejournal.com]

Of each month? But wait. If time flows differently here than at home, how do I know what day it is?

[knowsthepeople]

Don't think anyone actually knows the guy's name.

[shorterinperson.livejournal.com]

Nobody?

Private

[strangehistorian]

The assignments are ...random, unfortunately. I still don't have an inmate, and well... there's something quite important to me I'm waiting for, too.

Why is this filtered?

[darknessb4me]

[Reading all these threadssss~

He likes you. Ominous? Possibly.]

And what is your Gift, Knight Alanna?

[shorterinperson.livejournal.com]

[ She's not afraid. ]

Healing, mostly. Why?

[allusionsahoy]

What's up with your eyes?

[shorterinperson.livejournal.com]

[ Flatly, ] They're purple. I know.
