[ The video feed starts, and Stephanie waves. She's sitting on her bed in her "room," smiling through the screen. ]

So, I've been thinking about the whole "space hell" theme this place has going on, and I came to the realization that not everything that happens here is going to be all rainbows and butterflies, obviously.

I mean, this ship is looking more horror sci-fi and less action adventure sci-fi every day. And I kind of like being alive and well, as surprising as that might sound.

[ She pauses, hesitating. ]

What I'm getting at is...would anyone be up for teaching me self-defense?

[ Not that she really needs the help, as self-defense was thoroughly covered in Bat-training.

But if Batgirl wants to go out and about, her alter ego has to be nothing but normal—Stephanie Brown, an average teenage girl with zero space experience, zero fighting experience, and zero spandex experience. ]

[the feed turns on, and the girl holding the device looks rather timid, if not scared. she somehow keeps herself calm and quiet, though. it's not like she made it a point to avoid introducing herself, or at least make herself known. she had taken some time to explore, to try and understand just what was on the ship, but understanding most of it was difficult, if not impossible. whatever explanations she'd heard didn't make her want to talk about anymore than she wanted to talk about how exactly any of it was possible. she was just one of the many that had been taken.]

[now all she had to do was speak up.]

Hi, um, I was wondering if anyone has ever left without coming back. I know a lot of you probably get this question a lot, but ... I need to know.

[she offers a small, partial smile before ending the feed.]

[ well, hello, Tranquillites. Some of you may remember her first attempt at using this device and broadcasting -- this second time, Brienne at least seems to know where to point the small box and how to hold it so. However, proper use as it is she looks a tad uncomfortable at addressing the ship in such a way once again.

And knowingly, this time. ]

Now that things have settled down a bit.

[ for a minute it appears she may continue on this vein. Instead, he frowns, takes a breath and continues on a different note ... ]

It would seem that after remaining for three jumps, I may as well find myself something to do if I am to continue to be here. [ not doing anything, has not done her well, especially since the recent events ]

I wish to be of some use. To acquire some manner of work. If you please, I would ask what there is that needs to be done on board?

[ she falls quiet, gives a small nod and the feed is cut. ]
