[And the screen cuts on to see a red-headed girl with her face a mixture of relief and confusion, muttering before it grows louder]

Heropa? Then, it's not Vale or even near Beacon. What's happened to Beacon, though? There's... there's no way I could have survived. Not with that woman aiming at me... even my heel has healed, though...

[She blinks as she looks down at the screen, noticing it on]

Oh, did I turn this on? I'm sorry, I was...

[She sighs]

...this isn't the afterlife, is it? If it is, then this is a very strange afterlife.

It's not the afterlife. That's what I thought when I first got here, but it's not that. It's a second chance at being alive.

[She pauses for a moment to let that sink in.]

Did anyone tell you about the nanites?

Re: video

[believe_in_destiny]

A second chance.

[Yeah, that’s a lot to take in.]

Nanites?

Re: video

[am_i_a_monster]

Yeah, the nanites. The things that bring us back. Maybe you got a file when you came here?

Re: video

[believe_in_destiny]

If I did, I must have put it aside. It would make sense, then...

[am_i_a_monster]

As much sense as anything else around here does.

I know it's a lot right now,but it can be good here.

[believe_in_destiny]

I really hope so.

[am_i_a_monster]

It can. There's a lot of freedom here. You can have a life,

[callmesuperboy]

Welcome to the new world! No afterlife, just a weird one.

[ Have a grinning young man, set against a moving sky as he smiles into the camera. ]

Hopefully, you'll find it a good one.

[believe_in_destiny]

A new world... well, heh, that’s probably a lot better than the other.

[Takes her awhile you realize.]

Are you... flying?

[callmesuperboy]

I mean, it depends on how tired of life you are, I guess. [ He suddenly thinks of Jonas as he has not in a while and wonders if that guy ever found peace. At her words, he grins. ]

I am, yes.

[ And he carefully turns the camera to show the city below, as he flies along it slowly, before turning the camera back to him. ]

[believe_in_destiny]

Oh, my, that’s amazing! I’ve never seen anyone do that on their own power!

[callmesuperboy]

Yeah, it's fun.

[ He does a barrel roll, then straightens up, grinning. ]

This life can be a good one, a second chance, almost.

[believe_in_destiny]

A second chance, huh?

[She'd rather be back home, and yet... a world where she isn't entirely known? Might be good.]

Yeah, it just might be.

[callmesuperboy]

Not that we asked for it, but, sometimes life gives you weird gifts and you can choose to see the bad, or the good.

My condolences.

[believe_in_destiny]

Ah... thank you. I’m... still adjusting.

[timehit]

[ While he'd been sardonic at first, even Five can tone his typical attitude (especially to being stuck here) down a little. ]

It must feel like a small mercy to find yourself here and not at the wrong end of a weapon. What were you doing before?

[believe_in_destiny]

Trying to stop a madwoman. I failed.

[timehit]

Well, for what's it forth, I understand the frustration.

Take some time for yourself before jumping in to things.

Many find their wounds healed once they come here -- fatal wounds especially.

You all right?

Re: video

[believe_in_destiny]

The best I can. It's still a lot to take in if I can be honest, sir.

[ct_7567]

It would be a lot for anyone to take in. Better to admit it than to fight it.

[ That's a strength in and of itself. ]

It will take time. Was your world much like this one?

[tadeadshi]

Can confirm, not the afterlife.

text, ID reads 'pyrrha'

[believe_in_destiny]

Can't decide if that's good or not.

I'll say "good" for now.

[tadeadshi]

Guess it depends on what was going on in your life back home.

Not the afterlife, just a strange world. Welcome to the insanity.

[Not the... nicest of introductions, but Gladion's got an eyebrow raised as a black critter, his Umbreon, is poking up from his lap and staring into the camera. His eyebrow raise isn't directed at Pyrrha, it's at Umbreon being a dork.]

Name's Gladion by the way. How much did they tell you when you got here?
