[ 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--"
Bright smile is go! ]
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?

[ He sounds amused, but the smile on his face is kind. He's not laughing at her - just pleased that she's enjoying herself.
Background noise is a little strange on his video. Not the usual bustle of activity from the camp. And the background is just the pure blue of the sky, nothing else. Sam seems to be sitting somewhere, though. ]
As for telling Earths apart, depressing but there's some easy markers. You compare the big disasters and catastrophes. Wars, alien invasions. Technological advancements. Not a guarantee everything lines up, but it's a pretty good measure.

Nina is about as capable of letting things go as velcro, and so she chirps back: ] I prefer to think of it as alien, out-of-time technology. Modern technology for me is the invention of trains and guns that fire multiple bullets.
I see. ...are alien invasions something that regularly happens?
no subject
[ And probably plenty that were covert or small scale or squashed before most people caught wind, slapped with a classified label and buried deep. ]
And fair point about what's modern. Your friend with the big puppy was damn fascinated by my wings.
[ Of course, those are rather state of the art even for his world. And yes, he knows it's a big scary wolf and not a puppy.
But it's a puppy. ]

Hell yeah, I love them. Nothing better than flying. As for the alien invasions... three I know of in my world. Two of those I fought in myself.

[ No wonder he had trouble sleeping. ]
Tell me, did the aliens look anything like the Thessyx?
