[Video] Greeting newcomers with a smile!

[dualpinkpistols]

Hey, Vatheon!

[ Have a smile from the camera, and a wave, Vatheon. :D The speaker is positively cheerful and bubbly, obviously unbothered by recent events. Or, rather, if she is, it isn't showing. ]We've got some new arrivals, right~? If my info is right, that meeeeaaaans... you're all probably wondering a bunch of things! Well, never fear,

[Suuup, Maya. So he came to say hi when he saw her.

Also to deliver notes. Ace assistant yep. :|b He's been helping out newbies all over the place.]

Hello, Maya-san.

[Insert polite nod here.]

[Action]

[dualpinkpistols]

[ A laugh. ]

Minato-kun! How are you?

[Action]

[lunateclock]

I'm doing well, thank you.

How are you? I hope the dinosaurs didn't cause any troubles for you?

[Action]

[dualpinkpistols]

Me? No way. It was a little exhausting, but Artemis and I handled things just fine. The last thing I'd want to be is my own headline, after all.

[ And she offers him a nod. ]

And you too, I assume? I know you did your best.

[audio, for now]

[Ritsuka's a newcomer - he doesn't understand the communicators very much yet. He's lucky he figured out how to respond.]

Who are you? [She said you can ask anything, right? The basics sound good for now.]

[video here still]

[dualpinkpistols]

[ Bingo! Just what she'd been hoping to get. Have another smile. ]

Maya Amano~ Nice to meet you! I was transported here like you were. The communicator you have is for people like you and me; the locals don't use them.

[video, after messing around with it and making fumbling noises]

[fourdigit]

So anyone I talk to through this is... normal?

[He feels bad saying the others aren't normal, but he's unsure how else to describe them.]

[video] She's totally going to big sister you, Ritsuka. Forever--

[dualpinkpistols]

If by 'normal' you mean not from a psuedo-Atlantis? Then yeah, we are! Don't worry, everything's free of charge here.

[ A pause; she heard all that messing around with your SFC. ]

If you're having too much trouble with the SFC though, how about we just talk face to face? I'd be happy to meet you somewhere, if you like. Maybe get you something? I know arriving and stuff can be pretty tiring and confusing, especially the first week.

[sweeperesque]

[... wow, that's a lot of energy. Ace reoprter, huh? Saya laughs.]

Wow. Haven't heard from you in a while! Great to see that you're still so happy.

[A grin.]

But well, I've gotta say that I'm curious about this one- Anything on the surprise dinos yet?

[dualpinkpistols]

Believe it or not, I kind of... fell asleep for awhile! It was weird.

[ ... A laugh, and the topic is shrugged away. ]

Unfortunately, not so much! Though, I do have a couple of theories; it's possible they were transported here like we were, only by accident. That's one possibility. I mean, if they can get US here from all sorts of worlds, why not something from so long ago?

[sweeperesque]

[Blinking before grinning.]

That's the worse, isn't it? Sometimes that happens. So long as your name is on the list though, you're gonna wake up for sure or you're gonna come back from disappearing. Y'know- in case you didn't have info for that. I've got your back, Maya.

Point! They've got medieval kids and a couple dead people running around, so it's not that far-fetched. To think that they'd be here on accident though... sounds kinda dangerous.

[dualpinkpistols]

[ A laugh. ]

I'd say more than a couple, Saya-chan! And there's weirder than death, anyway. But thanks! I knew that too--I've got some excellent sources.

[ Her being one of those dead people, but whatever. ]

Well, considering the damage done... I can't say I'd let dinosaurs in here as part of our experiment, or whatever it is. They're too unruly. Though... I do have another theory, but it's probably just that: a theory.

[xlillackeykitty]

Always with the perky greeting, huh, Maya?
Well, keep up the good work. I think the newcomers are going to appreciate it.
I'll do what I can, too.

-LR

[dualpinkpistols]

I certainly hope so! Isn't it a journalist's job to help our their readers?

♥, Maya.

[xlillackeykitty]

At the rate all these new people are coming in, we're getting a lot of new subscribers.

That reminds me. I'll be calling a meeting for those who want to get involved with the radio station soon.
You in?

[dualpinkpistols]

I'm hoping I'll get things off the ground soon. Collecting data has been kind of long-winded with this city, but it'll be worth it. Plus, helping them is fun!

And I'm ALWAYS in! Time and place?

[scaresplants]

Ask you anything? Okay, why are you so positive? It makes me want to gag.

[Video]

[dualpinkpistols]

[ She makes a buzzer-like noise, as if on a game show. ]

So~rry, time's up, Sourpuss!

[ And a laugh. ]

Maybe I just like driving cynical guys like you nuts.

[Video]

[scaresplants]

I am not a Sourpuss.

Nah, you're not driving me nuts. You're just annoying me.

[Video]

[dualpinkpistols]

Guess I'll have to work harder at it, then.

[ A smile. ]

So, Mister Negativity, [ She does love her botched English--thank god for translations ] why bother replying when you know I'm always upbeat and happy?

Besides, if I can spread that message to others and help them, then it's always worth it to stay positive and cheerful! There's a lot to be thankful for.
