[ You can make VIDEOS ON THIS THING.
Now that Nina knows this, no one is safe. Well, okay, not true, because she's still got to get the hang of it. You, the viewer, are once again treated to a vision of... the Aid Station wall.
Nina: "Where's the camera again?"
John, her long-suffering patient who isn't suffering as much as he is laughing at her: "On the corner, there."
Nina: "But that means I have to hold my wrist like--" Abruptly, the picture changes and now Nina's squarely in view, "--oh yes, you're right. That's a better idea."
John: "...so are you gonna say something or?"
Nina: "Oh Saints, is it recording already? Blast--"

Hello, everyone! If we haven't met yet, I'm Nina Zenik.
There are so many of us here from so many different places. It’s hard to believe it’s been nearly two months, and now more of us are coming. I’m not used to making announcements like this [ some noise from beside her, Nina looks toward John and corrects: ] -- or, posts? Apparently they’re called posts. -- but even some the Adament crew I’ve spoken to are interested in my questions, so they’ve assured me they don’t mind if I - post - with this.
So tell us - what’s it like where you’re from? What are the legends that are most popular? What are the courtship practices? [ She’s absolutely not crafting this whole post because she’s searching for ideas on this, nope. ] Are you one of those of us have been fighting a war -- excuse the question if it’s rude, there just do seem to be a lot of us. I’d ask you to talk about your favorite foods instead, but that might be more depressing than helpful. Oh - here’s one: If you’re from an Earth, how do you know it’s a different Earth than all the other Earths? And if not, does your planet have a name or is mine the only one that doesn't?

Oh, if I were to name your world, I don't think I'd hyphenate with a letter.
[ In Ravka, food bites YOU. ]
But I don't think I should be the one to name someone else's world - at least not without giving them the opportunity to do so themselves first. But I understand how difficult it could be to come up with such a name on the spot. I haven't named my world yet.
[ Love letters are an idea. ]
Oh, I see. In such arranged marriages, were these other steps of courtship even taken?
As I've said, Doctor, it's your choice. We have already discussed some kinds of monsters.

I might have gone with a number. Impersonal as it is, it's at least a neutral identifier.
Yes, they were. Wholly dependent on the preferences, of course, but these were what was accepted. In my case, as I have some small talent with the piano, was often invited to play. Anything other than that, however, I feel it would be overly eccentric.
On the subject of monsters, I think I will ponder a list and share it tomorrow at lunch. Is that satisfactory?
[ Food bites you. Delightful! ]
no subject
Numbers imply a ranking system that other Earths may find uncomfortable, but it would be at least useful for keep track of how many of you there are.
[ So. So many. ]
If you like. But I'd be disappointed to learn that the only lore your world has to speak of relates to monsters.

There are many wonders, and I am sure I do not know them all. I would be happy to share what is within my purview.
no subject
And I would be happy to listen.

See you tomorrow, Miss Zenik!
