[From where Kara comes from, because of the cylons, machines humanity made to help them, and their revolt and war against their creators, it's understandable as a result that technology suffered. People were apprehensive about it because of that, fear that the cylons could return and use their technology against them. Which turned out to be true. She has never used anything quite like the bracelet and as a result, takes a little time figuring it out. But once she does, she thinks she gets the idea after a bit of practice. She frowns at the bracelet, making sure it's on.]

Is this thing on? The frak couldn't they just give me a damned phone? Assuming others are getting this, this is Kara Thrace. I guess asking for directions back to the Galactica would be pointless, though appreciated. Because as flattering as this is, being chosen to come here and help bring colour back or whatever, I have my own war back home to deal with so I haven't got time for this. I mean, I know I'm a damned good shot, but I never signed up for this. There are cylons back home to deal with without being brought here into all of this.

[That and. Hell, this is Kara. She isn't the easiest to get along with sometimes, but for some reason these 'Gods' decided it would be a good idea to bring her here where she is supposed to just be happy and get along with everyone? Unlikely. Very unlikely. And she did not even want to think about the 'power' thing. It almost implied that they were special. And she had always hated her mother and Leoben going on at her about her being special, with her great destiny. Right. Kara Thrace and her Special Destiny. Sounded like some bad cover band or something. No way. She shakes her head, brushing some short blonde hair from her face]

I have my own beliefs, my own Gods, and these ones are not the ones I was brought up believing in. And these ones aren't the cylons 'One True God' either. If they're expecting me to be happy and grateful about all of this, they're frakking wrong. It was a bad idea to bring me here, and their timing sucks. But from what I gather, this is essentially like the brigg. We get sent back whenever they send us back and we don't get a say in it. If I'm going to be here for a while, I am going to need to find out where the bar is, at the very least. And where I can get some cigars.

Though it's understandable you are angry, like many are or have been, it's not really up to us.

I still hope you won't hate this place though. After all, there is no telling how long you will be here.

[Video]

[wontbeforgotten]

Of course I'm angry. Doesn't seem like there's a lot I can do about that though.

As long as I can get some booze and there's decent food, I guess this place won't be the worst I've been. [After being stranded for a while after her viper crashed before and being low on oxygen, this was pretty damned good in comparison to that, even if it had happened years ago now.]

[Video]

[5thchild]

I can't speak about "booze", but the food isn't bad. And you can cook your own, as well.

[Video]

[wontbeforgotten]

Well, I'm sure it will be better than the stuff we live on with the Galactica at any rate. And I am sure I'll find a bar or something where I can get a drink of something alcoholic. Though I can't say how good my own cooking might be. It's been a while. [Definitely one of the benefits of having a 'home' on stable ground and not a battlestar warship.]

[Video]

[5thchild]

Perhaps you can ask for help from someone living in the same God House as you do.

Unfortunately, these gods don't just go away because people don't believe in them. [ If that was the case, Allison figures they'd have disappeared a while ago. ] But there is at least one bar. [ She sends over information about the Roadhouse. ] I don't know about cigars, though. Sorry.

[wontbeforgotten]

That would have been too convenient, huh? Should have figured. Still, thanks for that. I guess I'll have to keep looking if I want a cigar sometime, but the bar is definitely a step in the right direction. I'll have to check it out.

[Because drinks! And the shooting game will certainly amuse her if and when she manages to find her way over to it while there.]

[gymnast]

One's better than none, right? And it's possible someone else knows where to get cigars. Smoking's just not really my thing. [ She's a good teenager that way. ]

video;

[wontbeforgotten]

I suppose so. I guess I'll find out if anyone sees this and points me in the direction. Maybe at the bar I might figure it out. I know smoking isn't for everyone though. I guess I just grew up with it, seeing my mother smoke.

[She has a strange way of speaking, but Loras can at least understand the sentiment behind it.]

I too am also at war. I'm not interested in fighting someone elses.

video;

[wontbeforgotten]

I don't think any of us are interested, but it doesn't seem like we have a choice, from what I gather, if we want to get back home.

video;

[dyingisnotdead]

I have little trust that doing what they say will actually return us from whence we came.

video;

[wontbeforgotten]

Well, if there is some way to bring us here, there's got to be some way to take us back, right?

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

If it helps, they might not be gods in the sense that people often think gods are. Call them an alien species, if you will. Also, no need to worry about your own war; you'll get right back to it as soon as they consider you done here.

And they don't care if you're happy or grateful.

[Video]

[wontbeforgotten]

Alien species? [Well, the universe was huge, as shown by Galactica searching for years to find Earth.] I don't suppose anyone has any idea how long it might take until these Gods tell us they think we're done.

Yeah, I figure as much.

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

I imagine it would be as soon as the threat is completely gone.

[Video]

[wontbeforgotten]

Right. And since when have wars been over quickly? Figures.

[bluespacebabe]

I think they're more than a little aware that most people aren't too happy about what they've done.

[Thought strangely enough, he's not really sure it bothers him.]

video;

[wontbeforgotten]

I'd hope so. Because I doubt I'm the first to get frakking pissed about this.

video;

[bluespacebabe]

No, I guess it would be strange if you were...but it's really not so bad as all that, I think.

video;

[wontbeforgotten]

I guess in time people get used to it. Still.... [Doesn't make this initial being away from home, apparently helpless, any less frustrating for her. Kara's a little taken aback, because. Blue. But, this Asgard place was pulling in people from all over, so maybe everyone was blue back home for this person or something.]

[asgardstricks]

Ah, the eternal complaints of those who think their worlds are above it all.

You did read the guide, didn't you?

[wontbeforgotten]

I think I have a frakking right to complain when I am suddenly waking up here, with these Gods bringing me here. [Yeah, she's oblivious about these Gods to be aware that this is Loki and he is one of them.]

And yeah. I got that guide. Could still use some more details if you asked me but I think I at least get the idea of the basics. Doesn't mean I am any more thrilled about this. Like I said, I'm kind of needed back home.

[asgardstricks]

And if you read it, then you should have realized that it doesn't matter where else you're needed. If this world dies, so does yours. Anything you've done or will do there won't matter.

[wontbeforgotten]

So we're told. But something tells me that hasn't exactly been put to the test. I've been kidnapped twice before now, so forgive me if I'm kind of tired of playing hostage.

[The last time she was kidnapped, she ended up repeatedly killing Leoben back on New Caprica.]
