[ Natasha has to say something. She can’t just stay silent. But what to say? That this all has a really unpleasant ring of nostalgia to it? That she’s read the SHIELD file on Asgard before and either their intel was completely off base, or this entire place was not what it was claiming to be? No. She couldn’t alienate an entire group of people right off, not when it seemed like they earnestly believed what they were being told. She’d been watching them for a few hours now, silently observing – learning. She’s even taught herself how to use her bracelet, reading back on the last few days and fiddling around with her settings.

Now it was time to join in.]

I’m not sure .. if I’m doing this correctly. My name is Natalie Rushman. I was on Earth and then now.. I’m here and that strange woman is telling me that I’m in some sort of house and I was given a bracelet…

[ She’s the very picture of a confused, out of place woman, if a little bit more collected than most. There isn’t any crying, hysterics or babbling going on over here. ‘Natalie’ is a little pale, but that could be chalked up to the lighting. In fact, it almost looks like she’s standing in front of a window, with the sun behind her, obscuring parts of her face – it makes it hard to make out who exactly is speaking into the video. ]

Is there anyone .. who can try and explain to me what is really going on? Someone who has an actual face and has been here for a while?

( ooc: bringing you one spy! her post is going to be tagged with her real name "natasha romanova" so technically, if your character is the type to figure these things out, feel free to have her catch her in her 'lie' - just don't expect her to go down without a fight. (; )

Students .. seem to be getting younger, each year. [ it's because she's going back to school for her secondary degree. ~~clearly~~. the air of maturity. that must be it. ]

Do other people get .. useful powers? Or are they all useless?

Shouldn't it be the other way around? Students should get older, not younger. [ as usual, the point goes entirely over his head. ]

Oh... yeah, I think all the different powers have uses. It's just about... figuring out how to use them. Getting good at it.

[ yeah, she won't even bother .. replying to that, sorry. ]

Giving us a power and expecting us to learn how to use it.. on our own? That seems kind of stupid, doesn't it? Even students have to find somewhere to practice!

[ it's okay, that's the right response. ]

Oh... but there are some people who can help! They teach others how to use their powers better, I think. They're just other people who have been here longer, but if you want help with that... you should probably look for them.

I guess I should, if I'm really fighting in a war here. The people who've been here longer .. How long have they been here? Maybe .. a few months?

[ there is just a faint amount of hope in her voice, feigned. ]

Um... yeah, some of them! Some have been here even longer though. I'm not sure how long the longest have been here... but it's definitely been a while.

[ more than a few months at any rate. ]

It's not years though, right? I won't be stuck here for years?

I don't think so! I don't think anyone's been here that long, anyway... but, um, more like months. So maybe three or four? If you're lucky.

[ he isn't entirely sure, but he's been around for about two himself... ]

Good.. I suppose...

[ well. it's probably about time to say goodbye. she's running out of things to ask, and it seems like he doesn't have a lot to offer, either. ]

Thanks for .. all your help.

I don't think I did much, but your welcome.

I hope you settle in okay... it kind of took a while for me.

You did more than you think. [ hey, don't get down, kid. every little bit helps. ]

I'll .. try. It seems like a big transition. But hey, at least I'm not alone.
