First Record (Video, both Courts)

[wizardlyaccess]

[The girl that shows up in undoubtedly human, and undoubtedly young - mid-teens, most likely, definitely no more than sixteen. She's also almost entirely average-looking, with brown hair and gray eyes, wearing jeans and an old t-shirt - but the look on her face is far from ordinary, at least for new arrivals. Rather than being surprised, shocked, panicked, or desperate, the girl simply looks... normal. Maybe a little curious (or annoyed), but focused, and not at all surprised to wake up somewhere she's never seen before, and she glances around as if occasionally looking for something as she speaks. If anyone's good with accents, they can probably tell her standard American speech has a slight New York inflection.]

Dai stihó, everyone. My name's Nita Callahan, I'm on errantry, and I greet you... I think. Normally I get more warning about going somewhere else when I'm put on assignment, but maybe this is just the most efficient way to do it this time. At least I hope so, because some things aren't making a lot of sense and that's making it harder than normal to tell what's going on.

[She glances down, eyes flicking back and forth as if she's reading something quickly. If one looks closely, they could see the edges of the book, about the size of a large paperback, open in her hands just below chest height, before she looks up again.]

The manual functions seem a little messed up, so could anyone tell me if there's a guy named Kit Rodriguez here? He's taller than me, Hispanic, kind of looks like he's starting to get out of that lanky stage. Or Dairine - she's my little sister, and you'll definitely notice her if she's anywhere around. I'll keep trying to reach them, but the messaging system isn't updating, so I'm not sure how much it's going to work in the future, and my phone's not working at all. Or if you see them before I do, can you tell them I'm looking for them? Everything's coming back "in abeyance."

[And the last time that happened was very much no picnic. There's a sigh and she rakes a hand through her hair absentmindedly.]

Uhm... I guess that's all for now, so go well everyone. Dai. I never know how to end these kinds of things.

[ She doesn't feel Unseelie. There's a certain type of person that Unseelie seems to be populated with - well, many types of people - and this doesn't seem like that. And Shijima hasn't seen her before. But she can't make assumptions. ]

If they were here, you could speak to them through the lockets, surely. Have you tried?

[She's still getting it straight herself, but no, she's fairly sure she's not Unseelie. Information gathering is ongoing, but Nita doesn't like being uninformed.]

I just figured out that's what this does. We've got a lot of other ways of getting in touch, but none of them are working.

[She knows that means they likely aren't here - she couldn't reach any of her friends when she was in the practice universes, after all - but she had to try the ones she's used to first.]

At least this works for everyone else, though.

Technology seems to have trouble working here. Are your other ways of talking to them based on that?

[ she doesn't have much use for that stuff herself, but she's at least aware of the issue. ]

[the girl that appears is unmistakably around her own age and it's not exactly great (for anyone who gets kidnapped, that is), but it definitely a reason to why she replies. you know, life is too short to surround oneself with just an older sister's face if there's really a war going on. too boring.

How does one go about breaking the bad news to complete strangers though? Carefully.]

Uh, if they're not answering on the locket, then they're probably safe where you last saw them.
