Day 223 | video - open
[ the feed clicks on, showing a very consternated young woman. and then off. and then on! off! on! off! betty has no idea what she's doing, but there's a switch and she's flipping it back and forth angrily because she can't tell whether it's on or off and didn't pay as close attention to her welcome speech as she should have. ]

Stupid, bloody -- [ off. on. ] -- piece of -- [ off. on. ] -- even is this -- [ off. on, steadily now that she's taken the damn thing off and looked at what she was doing. that helps! but now she looks like she's about to cry and is trying very hard to be stiff upper lip about it. ]

What kind of prison gives you some comic book gadget, anyway? [ she takes some deep breaths now that the battle of the weird head thing is over. deep and calming, leading to an awkward pause as she realizes just what was on that list of crimes. now she's afraid and offended. ]

You know, that list of crimes is a bunch of bunk. If they think building bombs to stop Hitler is a crime then they're a bunch of Nazis!

[ probably (most assuredly) not the best first impression, but the feed clicks off again before she has a chance to fix it. ]

You are welcome. I understand how... alarming it can be, to be suddenly out of your element in a world you don't fully understand or see the point in.

[ really don't think life as a mindless drone to suddenly being an individual on a federation starship is quite the same thing, seven, but okay. as long as you think you can relate to people, good. this helps with your still really terrible people skills. ]

	Oh, I see the point in it. Even makes a little sense, so long as I don't think about it too much. [ this is freaky as all get out, but so much better than standing trial and potentially getting hung for being a murderer, sev, you don't understand. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Guess we all have to do it eventually, even if we don't want to. (Reply to this) (Parent)
