( nothing about what's happened since nuala made her choice makes a great deal of sense to her. she lives, inexplicably, but there is a wound in her where once her brother was; a hollowness she can't account for, in point of fact the very opposite of what she might have imagined her afterlife to consist of. dressed in strange clothes and adrift in a place even stranger than the BPRD's headquarters, handling truly peculiar technology--

--it is all very small, in the wake of that most important detail. it is, however, a sort of smallness that permits her anything else to think on while she gathers herself enough to, perhaps, investigate its cause. her first contribution to the comms network is therefore simultaneously accidental and very much with purpose: a period of audio recording where nothing much seems to be happening, video of Nuala's hands as she turns the device over several times, of her face as she examines it. audio, again-- an exasperated sigh, a little jostle, and then a startled vocalization followed by a bit of scrambling, and then, finally--

Nuala, having at some point prior to this transmission found her way to the room she's been allocated, looks composed of nothing but determination to be composed. )


Hello.

( ...and patience. she has that, too, in great stores. this is a device for communication. someone is going to communicate with her. eventually, this will begin to make sense again. )

The ship's screwing with us again. It does this.

[ Anyone who dies from exposure probably isn't interesting enough for the ship, at the end of the day -- at least, that's her opinion. ]

No.

Smiley said we have all the information we need, but no one can really make sense of it.

You're not.

On the bright side, only a really small percentage of people have died. You'd think a lot more would have.

There are tricks. Stay in the main areas, in the light. Get back in the pod before the jump. Don't wander into the darker halls alone or too close to the jump.

You're welcome.

The gardens are-- hot and humid, right now, but they're one of the safer places. There are lots of elves here, and animals that the ship has brought.

You would have been more alone, once, but more have shown up lately. For a long time it was just Legolas, as far as I know.

[ Well, and numerous vampires and werewolves, but he had been the only elf. ]

I stay with Thranduil now, in the gardens. He'd probably like to meet you.

They're gorgeous. Several floors -- the first one is more like the rest of the ship, but the others are like a jungle.

Just don't bring any chocolate, the pteranodon likes it.

She's- kind of like a dragon? But not actually. Not a dinosaur either.

... she's a scaly thing with wings that doesn't breathe fire. She belongs to the man who makes the guide.

Well, she can have chocolate. Just- she might not leave you alone if you have it, and having her come out of nowhere because she wants a treat is sort of terrifying if you're not expecting it.
