[Now this machine is completely different from either of the communicators that she had been given before. More complex in design, but thankfully simpler, at least in her opinion. Much few buttons to navigate. The person coming onto the video is pale, long dark hair—sorely in need of a good washing—falling about her face, left eye covered by an eyepatch looks a bit worse for wear, if usable. She’s smiling, unsure, but hoping she comes across as genial.]

Ah…hello? I don’t know how many people there are here already, but um…it’s nice to meet you all. My name is Miranda and…I’m not quite sure how these crimes are possible. I haven’t quite had the time to be a criminal and some of these ah…incidents were not intentional in the least. But as I doubt there is much I can do to change the mind of the wardens…do they um…allow us to do things...on our own?

[It’s been so long since she had a good bath and even longer since she had any kind of privacy, but if this place is anything like where she’s been before, she doesn’t expect that. She's trying to sound calm and easy, but her voice wavers just a bit.] If so, I-I would be very grateful if someone would direct me to the nearest washroom...an-and the stairs if you don't mind. I can't seem to find any and the door won't open.

[Someone maybe woke up floating on the island.]

[She wants to learn her new surroundings, so completely different from where she's been recently that it's a bit overwhelming at first. She stands and looks and doesn't know which way to go in. But once she's moving it's like she has to see everything. She is moving all over the dome, stopping at the various places that she has access to. There's a beach, a library, a museum, and even a store full of animals! And she will be definitely taking advantage of the hot springs. The spa seems a little too...fancy for her, but hot water and a good soak help her feel a lot better about the situation.

It's when she sees the graveyard that she takes a pause, standing at the end of the area, but not entering. Considering how vast this place is, she's not surprised as she should be--not anymore--to see one, but it makes this place all the more...real. This isn't a dream. It's not another experiment by Val or the scientists. If it was, there would be so many more gravestones, she would think.]

	That's probably so. I've never heard of that adventure. [She is trying to put it nicely, but she hopes it doesn't come off crass considering what happened to her there. She moves on quickly.] There are computers—AIs—who run things here too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

["Adventure" is a very polite way of putting it, but Miranda accepts it. No need to get into the conversation right this moment about whether or not she is the Miranda this woman met before.]

I can't say I'm surprised as they are...well, they are very...focused on their jobs, from what I've seen so far.

[The greeting she'd found through the communication device when she woke up had reminded her a great deal of Val.]

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't even ask for your name yet!

	Oh, yes, sometimes that does end up coming later. [So easy to get distracted by other things like recognizing the person or not being recognized.] I'm Euphie. At least that's what most people call me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's nice to meet you, Euphie! I'm sorry that I don't remember my previous time her. [Miranda looks around her for a moment, sitting some distance from the edge of the island, but close enough that she can see off the ledge quite easily.] Is there a button? Or um--a special word I need to say to get down? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

There's no reason to be sorry. It happens often and I was in the same position when I first arrived. [She also felt badly for those who remembered her when she couldn't return the favor.]

Ah, they certainly liked the idea of putting people on the island today. I don't think I've ever seen them do that before. [Her look and tone are apologetic.]

I'm afraid I don't know of any way down unless someone who can fly helps you. [Jumping wouldn't end well.]

	[So she could be left up here for days or longer? Oh dear. That sounds so hopeless as she doesn't know anyone, she doesn't know if it would be polite to even ask.] C-Couldn't someone just...throw me a rope? I could climb down that way. [She might fall but it's better than doing nothing.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] friendly_fire 2016-08-02 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	It's a very long way, Miranda. You would need someone with powers just to throw it up there and as long as you do that someone who flies would be just as easy. [Probably. Maybe.] Don't worry, I'm sure people won't let you be stuck up there. We'll find someone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Sitting there waiting for someone to help her? It reminds her too much of her old self who couldn't even do a simple job on her own, but then...what other choice does she have.] ...Thank you, Euphie. If it's too dangerous, then I'll...I guess I have to wait. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] friendly_fire 2016-08-06 05:06 pm UTC (link)
	I can ask the Defense Force to help you if you'd like. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] allthetimekept 2016-08-06 05:24 pm UTC (link)
	Are they the police here? I almost thought this place was completely run by robots. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] friendly_fire 2016-08-18 11:36 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, no, they aren't the police exactly. It's a team of inmates. There's no government to give them authority, but they do their best to help. Gino started it a long time ago. Ah, he's from my world. Then my knight took it over when Gino left. It's with a woman named Kitty now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh. I know people like that, it would make sense if strange things keep happening here. But...how would I go about contacting them? Do I just ask for them over this communication device? [The video jiggles a bit as she touches and then adjusts the headset.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] friendly_fire 2016-08-28 07:34 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, that would work. She should be able to help you and if she doesn't I'm sure Suzaku can. They also have a headquarters, but I don't know if they are there much of the time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] allthetimekept 2016-08-28 08:17 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you! That's wonderful to know. [She lets out a sigh of relief.] I hope I'm not bothering them, but I'll end up falling off sooner rather than later if I don't get down. [Because she knows she's clumsy and would fall over the edge just tripping over her own shoe laces.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] friendly_fire 2016-08-28 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, no, we wouldn't want that. It would be the worst way to start your stay here. I hope you come to like it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] allthetimekept 2016-08-28 09:23 pm UTC (link)
	[Miranda laughs.] Not the worst, I would think, but certainly not the best foot forward. Which can be expected. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] friendly_fire 2016-08-28 09:38 pm UTC (link)
	There is a lot to adjust to, but I'll help anyway I can, Miranda. I should probably let you take care of calling someone to help with getting down, but I hope to see you again soon. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] allthetimekept 2016-08-28 09:59 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, yes, I should do that. Thank you again, Miss Euphie. Hopefully we'll see um--each other soon. [She smiles again and then disconnects, planning on following the directions Euphie gave to call for help.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
