[ There are a few seconds of silence at the beginning of the message. For speed - and unfamiliarity with text-type devices - Elsa has decided to speak... and yet true to form, for a good several seconds she isn't entirely sure what she should say. In fact, it's only just as the listener might start to think that nothing's going to be said at all that there's a small, throat-clearing cough from the would-be speaker. ]

Hello.

[ An audible sound of skin on skin as Elsa slaps her hand against her face. A small, embarrassed laugh follows. ]

I'm sorry. I confess I'm not entirely sure of what I wanted to say. But I thought perhaps I should send out a message here. It's a little hard to believe, but I've been here for three months now, and I've barely met a single person.

[ That's not quite true; she's met a lot of people, but it's been more in passing. Even the famously introverted former queen is starting to realize she needs more than that. ]

I'm Elsa. Most of my time has been spent practicing my magical abilities, in the hope of being able to help my loved ones back at home. But I'm trying to find a little more balance. After all, it looks like we're going to be here for a while.

So tell me: what do people do around here for fun?

[The network is being addressed by a duck wearing a buttoned up shirt, with a mug of coffee. He gives a friendly wave towards the camera!]

Hey! Hi everyone. My name's Drake Mallard. I'm kinda new here? I just got here the other month. So I thought that I'd, y'know, reach out and talk to people. All of this... magic and humans, it sure is a lot to get used to! [He says with a laugh.] But I'm managing. It helps that there's familiar faces around. I've even heard that Darkwing Duck himself is here! So with him around, at least I don't expect crime to be a problem. I just wonder if someone could find definite proof that he's here... [He makes weighing motions with his hands while going on casually.] ...like maybe take pictures, share them on social media, let people know how cool he is? That's how I'll know for sure that we're dealing with the real deal!

[He clears his throat.]

That aside! I do have a few other questions. First of all, I understand that one of the types of magic that I now possess is siphon magic. Just... drains magic right out of magical objects! I haven't really had a chance to really try it yet. Is there... somewhere I can just obtain some items I can use for it? Any Amulets 'R Us? [He chuckles.] Also, what kinds of fiction are popular here? Like in terms of action-fantasy stuff, comic books, that kinda thing! They don't make Darkwing Duck shows or comics in this world, yet, so I'm thinking of finding some kind of series to follow! [And nerd out about.]

Anyway, that's about it. I'll, uh, see you all around!

Hey guys! Today's a super special day! Why? Drum roll in your heads, please... It's the adorable Alice Liddell's birthday! And we may all be stuck in a weird fantasy techno world, but that's no reason not to have celebrations as important as this! It's a free for all, super fun, cake-involved tea party! With a cake made by the lovely and talented Makoto Kino! So, keep an eye out and come on down!

[ Della moves the phone so the viewers can see the outdoor tea party! It's... a little odd, with blue and white banners all over, tea pots and cups of all different shapes, sizes, and colors, and a gigantic pile of cookies that are definitely from those cookie trees. It was clearly made by someone who's never actually been to a tea party.

But, hey! Alice is there in the background, giddily giggling over everything, her cat Basil in her arms.]

Everyone's invited, so come give Alice a lot of happy birthday wishes!

[ A pause, and then she puts the phone back to herself, whispering. ]

... Also, what do you do at tea parties? Caaaause I'm not really sure.

((OOC: feel free to jump right into action and tag around!))

[Gundham starts the video as he sets up his phone looking out onto an empty stretch of grass as he props the phone up on a stump. He sets a large basket down as he steps back and takes a steadying breath, still not quite comfortable with such broadcasts, but making it anyway.]

So, I've been thinking long and hard about how to bring more money into my animal shelter and stable to better fund the upkeep of it, and I believe I have struck upon something.

[He crouches down and pulls what looks like a miniature pumpkin with a large D painted on its side in dark purple paint.]

I've recently gained access to plant based magic as well as curses, hexes, and the like. As such I've decided to try and combine the two and...

[He turns away from the camera and tosses the pumpkin into the clearing behind him. As it hits the ground, it explodes into a cloud of what appears to be purple mist for half a second.]

I've managed to breed a unique strain of miniature gourd with seeds that cause the gourd to burst when thrown, and placed a curse of darkness on them as well. Any caught in the cloud will have their vision darkened as if it were midnight for roughly thirty seconds.

[As he speaks he picks up another one and tosses the gourd for a similar demonstration.] I've found it an effective way to shake off pursuers, when venturing into the forests. The only requirement I am going to enforce on its purchase is some kind of proof that you are venturing into dangerous territory for a quest.

After all, I cannot simply sell such weapons to anyone.

[There's a pause before Gundham glances at something off screen, making a face as if trying to get something to do what it was told before a bear paw could be seen swing into frame before launching the phone much to Gundham's... frustration. Thankfully the phone lands and ends the feed less than a second later.]

Hey, everyone! My name is Della Duck!

... And yes, I am a duck, where I'm from the majority of us are birds, we're the same as you, blah blah blah let's skip past that. Boy, that's getting old.

So! I've done this whole world-saving, dimension-hopping, monster-fighting thing pretty much all my life. I love finding out about different places, and in a place like this, where everyone is from a different place? It's so much fun learning about everyone and everything!

With that, for anyone else who'd like to learn about each other and other worlds, I thought I'd try an ice breaker from my world - Two Truths And A Lie! It's simple - You say three facts about yourself, and people guess which one is the lie. I know ya'll can cheat and look at other people replying for the answers, but, c'mon guys, let's be cool. Go as many rounds as you want!

I'll start us off!

One : I'm the mother of triplet boys.
Two : I once did an internship with a sorceress.
Three : I'm an ace pilot!

Your turn!
