1st hunt [video]
[Mary's face flickers into view, showing a very confused-looking teenage girl who's staring into the camera (bracelet) with the intensity of a brain surgeon mid-operation. After a moment she seems to become aware that it's on and broadcasting, starts slightly, then sits back, talking at the camera with distinct awkwardness.]
Oh, god- is this even working? I- I think so. Okay, okay. [Clearing her throat and kind of sitting up a little.] Hi. My name is Mary Campbell and I know I'm not the only person trapped here.
[Deep breath. On closer view, she looks rattled. Like she's been crying, but long enough ago that she can hide it somewhat.] I don't know if anyone out there can hear me or if you know me, but I need help. If anybody can tell me what's really going on- and if there's any way to wake up. [Deep breaths, Mary. Keep it together.] I'd just really appreciate it.
[She takes a quick breath and moves as if to turn it off, but then abruptly spits out-] I'm in Sigyn. [She pronounces it wrong.] If that means anything to anyone. I don't know if it does. I don't know anything.
[A grimace (she knows she's losing her composure) and she turns the thing off abruptly.]

By the time he shows she's already acting as neurotic and visibly unsettled as someone being redirected to their tenth new line at the DMV, tapping her foot, tugging at her hair, clicking her teeth together erratically until she spots him and unravels some of that tension.]
Hi, Merlin. I think I just want to go to the house. I'm through with tours and- and everything.
[By her tone, the "everything" isn't just annoying tours of the district. Or at all.]
no subject
[Aside from a quirk of the brow, Merlin doesn't react to her tone.]
The house isn't too far from here, so it's just a short walk.
no subject
Lead the way.

You don't look so well--was something happening back home right before you were brought here?
[Considering her state while recording her initial message, it's not that difficult to guess. Others have been in her shoes, too.]
no subject
[Just... keeping that to herself. Okay. She shivers and wraps her arms around herself.]
