[ 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?

Let's keep going, then! I'll try to hit up the plotting post for the event tonight. ^^
[ This is a lie. But whether or not Balthier is telling her the truth - and she believes that he is - he's returning a bit of his past for her own, and she can deal with that very well... the making of an ally... a friend. She glances at him sideways. ]
I'm not quite sure how to begin. I suppose -- I should tell you Matthias is a Fjerdan, from one of the countries at war with my own. And he is a drüskelle, a member of a "holy order" devoted to hunting down and killing Grisha.
[ Which is what she is, as he may have cause to recall. ]
It's not quite fair to say we met when he captured me, because I was doing quite well against the other four drüskelle until he threw a bola around me through a window from a building across the street. His heartbeat was so steady, I had no reason to think there was another one there. So I suppose really we met when he was clapping me in irons in the belly of a Fjerdan ship. It was far less romantic than it sounds.
Cool :)
I supposed I should be a little sympathetic. I was in love with the rightful heir to the country my father had helped bring to its knees and wanted me to help subjugate. Though I suppose I was a deserter of at least five years when I met her. Still, what is it with us free spirits and difficult relationship dynamics?

She gives him her attention as he tels his story and -- yes, yes, that does sound complicated. Nina gives a sympathetic wince. ] What's her name?
no subject
[ He lets the weight of her full name hang between them, then grins. ]
I never had a chance. Her body guard wasn't bad either. [ Actually, Basch drove Balthier nuts, but they came to a mutual respect. Balthier just likes to keep up appearances of being an absolute flirt. ]
no subject
[ Unless she wasn't interested in men... ]
