[For this first message, Elena puts on her very best for-the-camera smile. No second chance at a first impression, after all. It's a little strained, thanks to her injuries, but the painkillers have helped a lot.]

Hey, everybody. Where I'm from, video chatting isn’t that common outside of Skype—mostly people stick to e-mail and text messages—but since things are definitely different here and we’re something of a closed community, I thought I’d do as the Romans do.

[She gives a little wave.] I’m Elena Fisher. Back home, I'd say you might recognize me from TV, but I don't think history shows and the evening news cross dimensions, so I won't bother. I certainly didn’t expect to do that myself, but I doubt any of us did. And there are worse options.

[Such as death by grenade.]

Silly question time, but juuuuust to make sure—no one’s heard of a megalomaniacal immortal warlord cutting a swath across Europe here, right? Just checking.

Oh, and residents of Heropa #018—hi, I'm your new roommate. I should be there later tonight or tomorrow, but it depends on when the hospital lets me out. I had...kind of an accident right before I found myself here.

--that's my house!

[She very nearly launches into the welcome to Heropa 18 speech without preamble-- but, no, the nice looking lady mentioned the hospital and her wellbeing is more important than asking how good she is with cats, dogs, pigs, robot ghosts, and whatever Stan's giant punching buddy is called.]

Are you okay?! What happened, you know we have a doctor who lives with us!

[Mabel nods. Of course she'll be fine! They have nanites and dead people who are totally alive and okay again all over the place. Modern medicine!]

Cool! Okay well whenever you're feeling better just come to the house and we'll have a room ready for you. [Goodbye, former craft room. But hello new friend, so it evens out.] Do you think you're gonna need a robot arm or hand though?
glitterateur: I am! I'm definitely ready for that! (Are you ready to get zesty?)

Okay! But if you change your mind or the doctors recommend it before you leave let me know. [Ford's only got a few days left of free time before he's drafted into Halloween decorating. If she's going to need a robotic limb, now's the time to get it.] So hey how to do you feel about animals?

Great! Because we have a dog, his name is Meatsteak. Also some cats. Also pigs!
glitterateur: (I fucked a tree to summon aliens.)

No, pig-pigs. The cute pink kind! I have five magic ones, two real ones, and a robot!

Nope, just a regular house! It's the pink one, you can't miss it.
glitterateur: (this shit reminds me of prom.)

Yeah it's fine! Most of the pigs are magic so they just go into magic pig space when I don't need them. And we've got a backyard so it's all good.
glitterateur: "Your other grunkle." (Whaddya call a guy who fucks shapes?)

You know, where pigs go when they're not needed. A magic pocket dimension for pig holding!

Do you have any magic where you're from? Anybody with superpowers or anything?
