Hello, fellow imPorts.

[ A smile lights up her face -- friendly, warm, inviting. And her tone is much the same. ]

My name is Raina. As you can probably guess, I'm new to this world. But that doesn't make me any less fascinated by it. To be drawn here by forces beyond our control, given powers beyond some of our comprehension, and to have an opportunity beyond our wildest dreams to be heroes? I can't be the only one who is excited by the prospect, can I? This world is incredible. Beautiful, even.

[ Her lips purse in thought and she lowers her gaze toward her fingernails -- freshly manicured. It was one of the very first things she did since she got here, apart from buying the lovely flower dress she has on. ]

But there are things that the files and the debriefing can't explain; things that only those with experience in this world can share. And that is what I hope you'll do with me. Share.

[ Raina makes eye contact with the camera again, her smile -- still beautiful in nature -- houses something else. Something almost predatory. ]

What is it that makes you special? We were chosen for one reason or another. Perhaps you aren't aware of the reasons or perhaps you aren't comfortable sharing them over the network. I understand. We all have our secrets. But I hope at least some of you will help me understand your worlds and your lives and you, yourself. Now that we're all given a special power -- what was it that you have done with yours or what is it you will do?

I greatly look forward to meeting all of you and appreciate your time.

Even so -- even with the instability and uncertainty of our time here, there must be a reason. Are you trying to say no one has searched for one? No one was curious just to know?

Appeasing one's curiosity can be difficult, wouldn't you agree? And things move rather fast here. Looking for answers that might not exist doesn't always warrant your time.

[ Raina frowns, though it's unseen. She doesn't like hearing that, but it doesn't make it any less true. So she decides to steer the conversation toward a better path. ]

Maybe so. But there are curiosities I can satisfy for the time being. Like asking for your name, for one?

How polite, I usually don't get asked that. [Every so often someone asks on the network, but really? Not so much. And what a cute way to do it! He chuckles.]

Hisoka.

Well, Hisoka, whoever you've encountered clearly has no manners.

[ There's a very audible grin in her voice. ]

It's a pleasure to meet someone as thoughtful and intelligent as you.

I try to speak to a wide variety of people, you never know, hm?

[A laugh, leaning his chin on his hands.]

Flattery, are you preparing to ask me something else I may be less inclined to answer?

Only if you're a man who has a lot to hide...

I'm actually rather forward most of the time, I'm sorry, maybe this relationship won't work out. Since you're interested in secrets after all~

Not necessarily secrets, although it's true that the most fascinating information tends to be that which we hold within. But I'm very interested in your world. What is it like where you come from?

I wonder where this curiosity comes from... do you have experience meeting others from other worlds? Mine's hardly that interesting, though the people in it can rather exciting.

Do you always answer questions with questions?

[ Faintly amused. ]

If I give you an answer, will you give me one too? Or are we destined to play this conversational dance?

I'm naturally curious and tend to get ahead of myself when I'm intrigued. [A light laugh.]

Oh~? Why not. Though perhaps you should make your question more specific?

It almost sounds like we're one in the same person...

[ The smile can be heard in her voice. She pauses in thought, trying to think up a good question but then she thinks better of it. ]

I'll save my question for one we can meet face to face. After all the network is fairly public. So when can we meet?

I'm not sure if that makes you more or less interesting.

Mmn, I'm not sure. Let's keep in touch, shall we, Raina.

Of course. I never forget when someone owes me something, Hisoka~
