In quella parte del libro de la mia memoria,
dinanzi a la quale poco si potrebbe leggere, si
trova una rubrica la quale dice: Incipit vita
nova.
[ After this odd introduction in Italian, a video shall start. A young woman will be seen, hovering above the device. She is a sweet looking girl, no more than fifteen. There is a brilliant smile on her lips, golden locks that are caught back in a hairnet of pearls. She is all silks and jewelry; a golden cross on her neck. From her gasp of wonder, she is delighted by the thing. ]
Oh! It sheds light! Like a firefly you can carry in your pocket!
[ There is an air of youth to her, giddiness and joy that have somehow morphed themselves into a girl. she seems unsure of whether she has an audience or not but she will lift her head and then incline it gracefully all the same. The next words shall be spoken with passion, as if they are a personal confession. ]
In that book which is
My memory
Before which is little that can be read
There is a rubric, saying: Incipit Vita Nova -
[ A smile. ]
Here begins a new life.
[ She shall bow her head again. ]
Tranquility! What a wonderful name for a ship that sails through the stars. And as it brought sweet company upon me when I arrived, I can only humbly introduce myself to its people in return. I am named Lucrezia Borgia turned Lucrezia Sforza; I come from Rome, to those who are familiar with it.
It is an honor to be in your presence.

What's the year in Rome where you come from?
[Because that is one extravagant geddup.]
video
She is a woman, she can tell by the voice. And after a moment she decides she is a beautiful woman. Like none she had ever seen before. Unique in appearance, even unique in her voice. Lucrezia wants her to like her, wants to learn of her for she is certain that she is a world of knowledge. ]
That would depend, Passerotta [ she names her Sparrow for she is as elegant in form and curious to behold ] how does one count the years aboard this ship? In Rome, we count from the birth of our lord and savior, Christ.

( v i d e o ) STILL TAGGING THE JUMP LOG BUT CANNOT STAY AWAY
You have made quick work of the device, Lucrezia. If only it were as dear as a firefly.
( v i d e o ) CHINHANDS
[ and then with a more secretive smile. ]
I shall tell you this in secret, I have followed others about and watched them work their own magic box. And then I spent my first night doing this -
[ behold, she shall do elegant little tapping movements with her fingers ]
For hours. It is the very secret of my success.
( v i d e o ) THEY'RE LIKE THE SAILOR SCOUTS only princesses
( v i d e o ) TEAM ELEGANCE AND BEAUTY
( v i d e o ) SLAYING PRINCES AND ROMANCING DRAGONS SINCE BEFORE THE WAR OF KINGS
( v i d e o ) THEY SHALL RULE ALL THE REALMS YET
( v i d e o ) THEY'RE DOING A BANG-UP JOB IN SPACE ALREADY
( v i d e o ) QUEENS OF SPACE.
( v i d e o ) CAN THEY HAVE MATCHING CROWNS :c
( v i d e o ) AND MATCHING LITTLE WANDS TOO
( v i d e o ) AND COLOR COORDINATE THEIR SIGILS
( v i d e o ) CUTEST MENTAL IMAGE
( v i d e o ) well if they actually make this dress together they WILL be matchy matchy

Another princess?

My Holy Father is not a king but the Pope of Rome who crowns kings in his halls and so I am not a princess but a lady of the Vatican.

...I'm sorry, even if Ygritte's not D:
Despite the fact that it took Ygritte a while herself to learn these devices, she's all out of patience, apparently. ]
Aye, an' it'll wipe your ass for ya, if y' tap in the proper keys.
she will make it her mission for you to love her, Ygritte!!
They will call her The Fiery One and all shall tremble to behold her, she thinks. ]
It is a miraculous device, like none I had ever seen. Yet I doubt it does justice with the image of the Fiery One's hair. It is beautiful to behold but not even this magic box can capture its glory, I'd wager.
oh my god she is adorable :3
the only romantic one in her whole canon
if she weren't so frilly, Ygritte would be bffs in a ♥beat, ngl
look Ygritte, the wardrobe is called for.

video; she can't resist the fripperies
Where'd you get a dress like that? I just love fripperies, though I don't really have much cause to wear 'em. I got to go to a fancy party, once, in the prettiest dress. Mal bought it for me, it had lotsa ruffles. I love ruffles.
video; how are you so adorable Kaylee
It was made for me; for a dance banquet. I wanted to be painted in it but alas, it never came to be. It is the only one I have here. I shall have to put it aside lest it be ruined.
[ a beat. ]
You have a pretty smile. Warm; as a summer evening in Rome.

[Hello, Lucrezia. This is Angela who likes to take technological objects apart and see how they tick. Oh, okay, she wants to hack into it and see who's behind it. Let's be real.]
But you certainly have a way of describing things. I like it.

What do you expect to find within? A secret of a sort?
[ a grin. ]
A present?

I have settled in my dream. But I have thanks to give for such. To the kindness of those who have greeted me. Among them a certain boy with the most curious of wolves. I do wonder if you have heard of him.

Have you yet encountered those who know of you, madam?
[voice]
Alas, my answer would be, no. I have not met any man or woman that I know nor any man or woman who have heard my name before.
At least, not yet, sir. I carry a small hope in my heart that it shall change.

JUST PLACEHOLDING TILL AFTER I GET ATCHU IN THE JUMP LOG.
A MAN WHO LIKES POETRY HUH?
[ you people and your titles. ]
We have met before and I named you a friend and so my name is not inappropriate.
[ and then, a shake of her head. ]
Would that I could write such beautiful words. It is Dante, my Lord. My own verses seem silly and childish when compared.
WELL KIND OF HE HAS NOT HEARD MUCH TBH
PREPARE YOURSELF, SIR.
HIS BODY IS READ--wait
TOO LATE FOR SECOND GUESSING.
TOO LATE TO GO BACK TO SLEEP.
IT'S TIME TO TRUST MY INSTINCTS
CLOSE MY EYES.
AND LEAP
IT'S TIME TO TRY DEFYING GRAVITY.
I THINK I'LL TRY DEFYING GRAVITY.
KISS ME GOODBYE I'M DEFYING GRAVITY.

He sits straight when the video feed flickers to life on his end of the line, chin tipped up though he offers the beginning of a bow before speaking. (It has been some time since he last fully adopted the manners of court, but he feels, for this occasion, they would serve best.) ]
It is the ship, my lady, that I would think honored to be in yours.

But it is its people who have left a great impression upon me. One so wonderful that it shall never be erased.

Could I ask what language that was, Lucrezia?
[Particularly since he could just vaguely understand it. Italian isn't so far from Latin, is it not...?]
[ video ]
Italian, it was. If you have heard of it. I have half a mind to teach it. It is quite beautiful and not many abroad know it or of it.

We much prefer infinitus est numerus stultorum for our rubric around here, miss. Yours is more optimistic. And I think it's safe to say that for once, the honour is all ours.
[video]
And is the stay on the ship defined as fatum iustum stultorum, sir? Call me Lucrezia the Optimistic and I shall wear my title with pride.

Lucrezia Borgia. The rumors as to your appearance pale in comparison to the real thing, my lady. [A broad, handsome grin. Captain Jack Cheesecake, at your service]

I did not know such rumors existed but it pleases me to know I have not failed your hopes. I shall have your name, Signore. One cannot be so impressed with someone without knowing their name.

Dante, an interesting choice for a woman with a deposition like yours. [ Irene smiles and pauses for a moment. ] If you don't mind me asking, how recently did you become Lucrezia Sforza?
( v i d e o )
[ She is pretty. No, beautiful. 'Pretty' would fit a timid girl with pink cheeks and a sweet smile. This woman reminds her more of Giulia Farnese, elegant and dark and clever. ]
It has been weeks. Not too many [ 'thank God' is not said but is certainly there ] but certainly enough to leave an impression.
