[DAY 236] [Video|Action|Open]
[The voice cuts on to someone whose voice is fading in and out in volume, as if they are moving the microphone closer and further from them. The girl hasn’t seen something this advanced before, but it doesn’t take much to realize that it is transmitting her to somewhere.]

Oh how interesting. Is this like one of those radios I’ve heard speak of? I had never imagined they were this…small. Certainly something capable of wave communication would need to be much bigger to catch the right waves? How do you fit all of the wires into such a small package?

And what does “video” mean? [Obviously she is looking at the side of the communicator only to flick the button. Suddenly the screen is full of golden brown eyes and pale blonde hair. She pulls it back a bit more.] I’m not quite sure how I came to be here, but this place is full of curious things. It’s nothing like any prison I have heard of. Your country must be very wealthy to afford it. How does the shield around the prison stay intact? I haven’t seen a Mage since I woke—

--Oh, I’m sorry, that’s very rude of me! Good morning, my name is Toul. I hope I’m not bothering anyone, but I do have some questions that it would be very helpful to me if I could have them answered. Has anyone seen a pale girl with brown hair and eyes and a dark tattoo over her left eye?

[Toul has been wandering for hours, trying to figure out whether or not this is a truly creative dream, an illusion, or if she is truly stuck in a prison. It's nothing like one she's ever heard of herself. She manages to come by the clothings shops in Sector 4 and is searching for things close to what she's used to. The jumpsuit just isn't comfortable. Too restrictive. It would be easy enough to run into her as she walks and expect that she'll definitely greet and introduce herself to anyone she sees.]

	[OOPS. Korra had forgotten that whole language issue.] Sorry! Yeah, if you put the device on, you'll see the map. After awhile, you'll be able to figure out where everything is without it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Thankfully she's got the communicator close enough that she can hear the translation coming through it right before she sets it back over her ear.]

Oh! Isn't that something? [She's rather intrigued by how the communicator fixed that for her.] It gives me a map and lets me understand languages! And I can use it to speak with people like a radio. How fascinating a little machine.

Thank you very much for showing me. I never would have realized it.

	Yeah, they're pretty handy. C'mon, let's go get you some food. Is there any particular kind you like? [She's learned to ask after Garcia shocked her by being a vegetarian. She'd thought that was just an airbender thing.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Vegetarian? She's a Catperson, not a Rabbit!] Oh no, I'm not very picky myself. I find as long as it's prepared well, I enjoy any food I'm given. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cool. There's a food cart not far from here that has some great Water Tribe food. [With a sideways glance at the other girl's cat ears] I hope you like fish. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	{9} bendthekey 2013-09-22 12:34 pm UTC (link)
	Fish? Oh, it's quite tasteful to me. But what is this Water Tribe? What region are they from? [Very curious since "Water" makes her think of Mages.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's where I'm from. You wouldn't've heard of it. [Yeah, Korra hasn't seen much of the world outside of the South Pole and Republic City, but she's pretty sure there aren't any catpeople.] You're familiar with the multiple world thing going on here, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh... [Her ears droop for a moment, but not for long.] I almost thought it would be something I knew from home. We do have several tribal islands off the coast that I've heard of before. [Not that she's ever actually visited the coast. It's so far away.]

I was informed that there are multiple worlds people come from here, but I couldn't be the only person from my own world, could I?

	I don't know. Maybe. I was alone here for a few days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	{11} bendthekey 2013-09-27 01:07 am UTC (link)
	But...why? It seems very strange that they would bring only one person from a world to a prison meant to keep us from causing harm to it. [...Is she really the worst threat Gaia has? What had she done that would be that terrible?] I am happy for you that you're no longer alone. Maybe it's only a matter of time before someone from my world joins me, too.

	[Korra shrugs.] Don't ask me. I have no idea how the Wardens think. But I hope you're not alone for long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Toul is rather optimistic about it all. She'll either meet someone or return home, she hopes.] Thank you, but I guess there is no use worrying about it for now. Food is a better priority. What kind of fish do they serve? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	{13} deal_with_it 2013-10-03 09:38 pm UTC (link)
	Uh...good kinds? I don't know what they're all called. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	{13} bendthekey 2013-10-05 11:15 pm UTC (link)
	Trout, halibut, dominofish, rainbow catchers? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	{14} deal_with_it 2013-10-07 08:44 pm UTC (link)
	Uh, sure, maybe? You can ask them when we get there. (Reply to this) (Parent)
