[She fiddles with the communicator, almost impatiently, until she finds out how to record and broadcast a video. And then it's recording and those that watch are greeted to a teenager and she's holed up somewhere that's hard to place.

Screw you all, she's not leaving herself open or anywhere you could hunt her down.]

I want to talk to someone called Elrond. About the woman Galadriel.

[That's it. That's the message.]

Not here

[inafadingcrown]

[But she's watching. You really need to learn to filter, little one.]

Re: Not here

[adapt_or_die]

[Maybe she doesn't want to. She wants you to know.]

[inafadingcrown]

[Well, mission accomplished.]

[summerlord]

[In contrast, he's quite evidently in the gardens. His expression is a guarded sort of curious.]

I am Elrond. Ask what you would of me.

[Did you frighten someone again, Galadriel?]

[video]

[adapt_or_die]

[Hanna watches him for a moment, clearly suspicious. She's suspicious of everyone though. At least for now.]

Can you give me reason to trust her? [Preferably more than one.]

[video]

[summerlord]

[His expression softens a little.]

I can give you many reasons, dear child. May I ask what brought you to me?

[video]

[adapt_or_die]

[She almost objects to being called a child but that's not important right now.]

She mentioned you and that you could give me a reason to believe that she wouldn't raise a hand against me.

[video]

[summerlord]

[He's almost amused by that. Vouching for Galadriel is not something he thought he would be doing today.]

The Lady of Light would not raise a hand against anyone without very good reason. Will you give her reason?

video; I am sorry I couldn't not

[onemistress]

[ because she needs this right now. ]

She is a most excellent Lady.

video; SCREECH XD

[adapt_or_die]

[Hanna practically cringes and her eyes narrow. This one looks closer to Marissa than Galadriel does...]

Who are you?

video; ehehehe

[onemistress]

[ There's some part that still twitches at the blatant disrespect. But she takes a breath, smiles once more and inclines her head in greeting as that was simply was what it was. ]

Elizabeth, the Queen of England.

[adapt_or_die]

[Hanna and respect... nnnnot easily come by.]

You look a bit like her. [Enough to set her on edge.]

[onemistress]

Who, myself? I should hope so.

[ teasing. ]

Or Lady Galadriel?

Hey, um. Hi. I'm Robin, and you - you didn't exactly make your conversation private, and I couldn't help noticing that you called yourself a freak and I just wanted to say...

When you don't like hurting people and don't do it, even if you can - especially if you can - then you're a better person than a lot of people who think themselves normal, or who pride themselves of being better than others.

You don't have to answer that if you don't want to, but I thought it had to be said.

[For a long time, Hanna is just struck speechless. Even her father- even Erik hadn't exactly denied that she wasn't normal. And the papers she'd found in the compound Marissa's people had taken her to had said her results her abnormal. Then she had found out why.]

I...

[She's still not sure what to say. And she's not entirely sure she's any better a person but finally she speaks up:] Thank you.

[ Dick relaxes a little, nodding. ]

You're welcome.

I... I'll leave you to your questions, now. But if you need somebody to talk to, or hang out with, let me know, okay?

[adapt_or_die]

Like a friend? [Forgive that she sounds confused. She's only ever had one friend before and she's not even sure what happened to her and her family.]

[nightblogs]

What about her?

[adapt_or_die]

I want to know that I can trust her.

[nightblogs]

Oh. Well, I dunno about that, but she seems pretty nice.

[adapt_or_die]

She... did seem nice. People can pretend though.

[northerner]

What question do you have about the lady Galadriel? Are you of her world?

[adapt_or_die]

I'm not but she looks like someone from mine. A bad person. I just want to make sure she isn't like Marissa.

[northerner]

I would vouch for her, but we're scarcely introduced. I don't suppose my word would mean much to you.

[adapt_or_die]

It wouldn't alone. [Much honesty.] But other people are vouching for her too so it helps.
