[The screen flickers on, revealing a young man who looks more than a bit annoyed, and above all else, exhausted. His golden eyes search the screen as if it will show him something back, but…nothing.]

Some stranger told me that this allows me to speak somehow to others here, trapped with me.

[A hand slides through curly blond hair, and he purses his lips, as if he’s unsure what to say. There is rage behind his eyes, his jaw setting. He controls his anger though--what good would it do, now? To yell at a screen that shows things to people he does not know.

Rage does not bring things back. He‘s learning that every day; so he‘ll bury the hurt down, let it simmer, and take a lesson from his sister; swallow the emotion and present a more reasoned face.]

I know not what this place is, or why I was deemed to be brought here. To be taken from Kings Landing in my sleep, that is a great sorcery indeed.

I like it even less that we've been provided magic. There is no good that can come from it--only death and destruction.

[The same sort of magic that could kill a King with shadows. The fact that he has a gift now, as well...it troubles him. But first--his thoughts need to be focused, on the one thing that matters, now. The thing he has left.]

If those who have taken me are listening, hear this. I am Ser Loras of the House Tyrell; if you have my sister, Margaery, return her from whence she came. My life will be forfeit if you do.

[He has pride, but his sister matters most. He shall swallow what he must to gain her freedom if she is here at all.]

And to those who are captives, as well...

...any assistance would be appreciated.

This place is quite beyond me, I am afraid to admit.

...I was quite happy with who I was before, thank you.

And I wasn't? I didn't ask to be thrown into X-Gene roulette and come out with a piss-weak version of regen. But it's better than being stuck as a human.

You do realize most of what you are saying makes no bloody sense. I am not from your world.

[Really, it's going to give him a headache.]

All you need to know is that we're genetically superior to you, no matter what the "gods" have done to us here. And we don't take well to the negative generalizations.

And I doubt that someone like you would ever be better than me.

But people are allowed their illusions, I suppose.

[Oh he doesn't like you.]

Science isn't an illusion. It's just something you guys probably haven't figured out yet. [Given that he thinks the height of weaponry is a bow and arrow.] You'll find out.

We'll see.

[Loras truly doubts it, but no point in arguing with a mad man.]

Ask anyone from a modern world. Even if they don't know about mutants, they'll know about mutation. Ask the whole damn network if you want.
