Had better working scrap than this.

[It's muttered as the video comes on, and the long faced woman might look a tad familiar to people, considering who she's related by blood to. The wild black hair, prominent nose and green ringed gold glare certainly lends a hand in it. She both looks and sounds annoyed.]

Since I have been led to believe that this is likely the easiest way to be heard by… those here, I will address the mass of you. I warn you now that I will not appreciate foolish answers or jests. Power or not I am still Mother Nature and I see no reason to act as if I am not.

First of all, what in the name of Cygnus is truly going on? Being kidnapped for something as trite as "spreading emotion and cheer" is ludicrous, and I shall not be participating in a war of any sort no matter how urgent it seems. One is enough for anyone to participate in.

[There's a pause, as if she is considering something for a long moment.]

Also, if anyone recognizes the name Pitchiner, knows who Tsar Lunaoff is then I would request to speak with you at your convenience.

[This? This sets off a lot of alarm bells, because yes indeed, there is a stark similarity here. In a moment of confusion, she nearly does a double take. That thing has a daughter? That's the only thing she can think of before she parts her lips, just to say.]

No. It doesn't.

[It sounds similar, but Alice isn't about to go in guns a'blazing, quite yet. Or rather, knives.]

Surely you were given the introduction.

[fearsdaughter]

Yes, but that doesn't mean a thing. There is usually more going on in a situation than a brief overview could ever give.

Generally those in the field know the true situation better than those in charge.

Never met a Pitchiner, but you're doing a good job of spreading emotions right now, just so you know. It isn't about just the good emotions. But, it pretty much is that you got kidnapped and dropped into someone's desperate war. There isn't any other way to describe it.

Video

[fearsdaughter]

I'm not going to fight.

[It's as if she's saying the sky is blue or that plants grow.]

Desperate or not, I don't choose sides in altercations. The universe has a surprising ability to survive whatever happens to it.

[voice]

[boogerman]

Go on, tell them about the big bad Boogeyman. Do my work for me. It's so sweet.

[voice]

[fearsdaughter]

[She's just so very deadpan at this.]

Don't you have closets to hide in? I wasn't referring to you.

[Jamie may not have had the pleasure of running into that particular relation of hers - or even seeing him, thanks to his rather hit and miss use of the network - but even if he had that wouldn't have changed matters much. When the video flicks on, his eyebrows are somewhere in the process of disappearing into his bangs, giving him a faintly skeptical expression.]

Aye, well, part of that guide might be a wee bit out of date. But I'm not so sure you'll be able to avoid the war as much as you'd like to.

[video]

[fearsdaughter]

I can avoid anything if I want to badly enough, I've something of a knack for it. Then again I don't suppose most here learned on dodging raindrops and meteors.

[There's a joke there, and a smile in her eyes that's just this side of there.]

[scienceleads]

Unfortunately, you may not get a choice as to whether or not you participate in the war. We've had a few incidents lately where there was widespread devastation.

And no, I haven't heard of those names.

video

[fearsdaughter]

i'm quite familiar with mass destruction, I usually have a hand in the ones considered natural disasters.

[She shrugs at the last bit.]

It's unsurprising, they're ones few these days know. I simply thought to ask, as time seems a bit non-linear here.

Video

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

Those are names neither of them have used for a long time.

[He could mention Pitch being here right away, but he holds back for a moment. There's something very familiar about his woman, tugging at the edges of his memory.]

Video

[fearsdaughter]

[So maybe it's been a few hundred years, she hasn't changed a day beyond the lack of thunder crackle in her.]

I happen to be painfully aware of that, but as time seems to be out of order here I thought I would ask.

[It took her a moment too, but she smiles, green-gold eyes crinkling in deep amusement.]

You look different without the coat.

[bear_hearted]

Aye, soun's like ramblin from someone that took one tae many hits tae the head. But this place make about as much since as a child's tale, with plenty ah character tae fit.

[fearsdaughter]

[It takes her a moment to get through that accent, but she just sort of chuckles a little.]

Children's tales are sometimes truths wrapped in the unbelieveable, legends live and we seem to be in the middle of one.

[firstbeliever]

[She does look familiar but Jamie won't jump to any conclusions yet.]

The emotion thing isn't too bad. It means we're helping the people of this world because they're sick. And if you're looking for someone, you can use the bracelets to find them.

[Jamie pauses.]

Are you really Mother Nature?

video.

[fearsdaughter]

[She hums a little at the emotion spreading bit, considering the boy for a moment.]

Oh, they're not likely to be here considering they are... not of this time.

[There's a very small smile.]

I am. And yourself?

[harderbetterfaster]

You know the whole "warning" schtick is a dangerous game, right?
You're basically begging someone to mess with you.
I'd do it myself, but that's a bit basic for my tastes.
(I prefer Malbolge.)
Do they have the internet where you're from?
Because trying to get anyone to remain remotely serious on anything even vaguely resembling the internet is like, hells of a lost cause.

[fearsdaughter]

What are you even referring to?

Video

[eyesofwonder]

[Pitchiner, Tsar Lunaoff, Mother Nature. There are too many coincidences in this post not to intrigue North. He doesn't recognize the woman (and really he's had maybe one one-sided conversation with his world's Mother Nature spirit centuries ago). Yet, there is something familiar about her.]

Kidnapping can not be changed unless you are sent home. But there are other ways for travelers to help without joining the fight. Talking to others is but one of them.

You...are Mother Nature?

Video

[fearsdaughter]

[It's probably the nose, or the gold in her eyes or the way she's pretty good at making deadpan faces in reaction to things. She dealt more with Katherine and Sandy than the others really.]

I am, and it is the name I shall keep even if I no longer have access to the power... and you are?

[She doesn't recognize him, the years have changed him a lot after all.]

audio

[sestra]

[The voice that speaks is Ukrainian accented. And maybe sounding a little bored.] That is not the name of a Tsar.

[Casually ignoring that whole 'mother nature' thing for the time being.]

audio

[fearsdaughter]

It was thousands of years ago and in a different region of the universe.

[She's rather calm with that, as if commenting on the color of a dress.]

They ruled the greater part of the Galaxies back then.

[littlesurvivor]

As in 'Pitch Black'? I've heard of him. Why?

voice;

[fearsdaughter]

The Nightmare King is not whom I was referring to.

[Well, it is, kind of. In a rather sideways fashion.]

The... Pitchiner name was a rather well known one amongst most circles when I was younger.

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

[ He's just. Gaping.

Give him a second. ]

Mother Nature? Really?

[Video]

[fearsdaughter]

[She just gives him a very flat stare, almost a glare.]

Yes. Really. Is that a problem?

[Voice]

[hadbadays]

[ Oh god. Seriously? This is getting out of hand. ]

You're Mother Nature?

[ Pause. ]

After Satan maybe I shouldn't be that surprised.

[Voice]

[fearsdaughter]

There is also the Bogeyman here still.

[As well as the Easter Bunny and Santa and Jack Frost, one of whom is an alien too.]

Just because you don't believe in me doesn't mean I'm not real.
