[ As soon as the video feed begins, there is a face that is, perhaps, just a bit too close to the screen. ]

Ooh-! It's working!

[ And then she backs up, eyes brightened and a broad smile stretching from ear to ear. ]

Oh, my gosh! I can't believe that this is actually happening! Superpowers! An alternate universe!! Can you [ you being directed towards nobody in particular ] imagine the possibilities?

[ She spreads one of her arms out and upwards (quite dramatically), the motion causing her glasses to slide down the bridge of her nose. She pauses for a moment, and, afterwards, promptly straightens herself, her forefinger pushing her glasses right back up.

Maybe she got a little too excited for a second there. ]

Anyways, I should probably introduce myself! My friends call me Honey Lemon, and I look forward to spending some time here with everyone!

[microbrobotics]

[ Normally Hiro doesn't do video out in the open like this, but this - this is an exception. His face is bright and beaming as he realizes who's on the other end of the most recent network post. ]

Honey?

[honeyxlemon]

Hiro!

[ There is a bit of surprise in her expression, but it is quickly replaced with an enormous grin. ]

You're here!

video forever

[dormition]

It's pretty exciting, isn't it? [Not that Minato is an excitable sort of person, but he's pretty happy here.]

Hiro-kun and Tadashi-san have been friends of mine since I got here, so I watched your conversation, and... I think we'll be living in the same house. I'm Minato.

[honeyxlemon]

[ She nods vigerously at his statement, her enthusiasm as clear as day. At the mention of her friends, she somehow appears even more ebullient. ]

It's so nice to meet you! Have you been here as long as they have?

text.

[reabled]

[ For a moment, Felicity has a brief flash of a miniature, uh. Herself. Except at that age, she was all purple lipstick and black sweaters in summer. ]

Is that a nickname?

[ Because really, Honey Lemon? Was it her superhero code name or something? ]

text.

[honeyxlemon]

Yeah. A friend started calling me that, and then everyone else started to. I figured it would just be easier to go by.

[resipiscent]

[She's so excited. It's probably not only him that feels a little stunned by Honey's display.]

Um, hi. Welcome, I guess.

video

[honeyxlemon]

[ His lack enthusiasm is apparent there, but she smiles regardless. Honestly, she knows how harrowing this whole situation is, but someone has look on the bright side, right? ]

Thanks! I'm still having a hard time believing that it's actually happening.

[braided_icarus]

Someone seems pretty.....excited about all this. I guess that's better than being confused or terrified of it all right off the bat. But I gather you know Hiro and Tadashi? I'm Ed, one of their friends here. Well, mostly Hiro's, but Tadashi got here more recently in comparison. So if you need a hand, just let me know, Honey Lemon.

[No. He's not going to ask on the name. It can't be her real one. Probably just some nickname or codename. Though it doesn't sound as impressive as 'Fullmetal'. He's not going to judge, simply giving a wry smile at her enthusiasm. It almost reminds him of Winry around auto-mail.]

[honeyxlemon]

[ Oh, she is definitely confused and somewhat fearful. Honey had a personal moment where she gave herself a sort of pep talk to boost her composure. But Ed has it figured it out. Nothing good would come out of panicking, in her point of view. ]

Yes! They're my friends from home. It's really nice to meet you, Ed! [ Then, somewhat sheepishly: ] And thank you so much for the offer. I'm sure I have a lot to learn about this place. [ Asking for help doesn't bother her. Rather, barely knowing anything about her surroundings does. ]

[unhidden]

So... do you help soothe a sore throat?

video.

[honeyxlemon]

[ She's actually never heard that one before, surprisingly enough. ]

It would make sense if I somehow could, huh?

[theslayerofgod]

You sure are excited! I guess getting here can be kind of a mindbender, so it's not surprising.

Anyway, good to meet you, Honey Lemon.

[honeyxlemon]

I just think that there's so much to be excited about.

It's good to meet you! Have you been here for awhile, or are you new like I am?

[incendere]

[It's hard not to smile at someone who is so excited, especially when said person happens to be a pretty lady! It's a welcome change to the usual tone of being here, which seemed to be rather dark or suspicious with everything that had happened within the past couple of months.]

Honey Lemon, huh?

[Interesting name, but Roy doesn't say anything more about it.]

Welcome. The name is Colonel Roy Mustang. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. Though, it sounds like you might be more interested in discovering them for yourself.

[honeyxlemon]

Hello! Nice to meet you! And Honey Lemon is just a nickname. [ Because she can tell he's curious. A few people have asked about it already. ]

I'd love to hear about the important aspects, actually! Is there anything you think that I should absolutely know?

video | id reads "power girl"

[boobwindow]

Friend of Hiro's?

video

[honeyxlemon]

Yep! Are you one of his friends too?

video;

[elevatorattendant]

Isn't it most fascinating? There is much to explore in this world. I find myself almost overwhelmed with where to begin.

video;

[honeyxlemon]

I know, right? They should have provided tour guides for us. [ She's joking, but..it would probably be really useful too. ]

[orangehoodie]

Honey... Lemon?

You don't sound very surprised by this, do you? Are you familiar with stuff like this?

audio;

[honeyxlemon]

Oh, no, not at all! I actually am surprised, but it's still really exciting.

[khajidont]

When it comes to alternate universes, the possibilities are infinite. Some people here have met alternate versions of the people they know. You, um, get used to it. [Cheerfully,] But you seem to be taking this pretty well!

video

[honeyxlemon]

No way. [ Her eyes bright up at the thought of meeting another version of her. She really isn't full of herself, but it sounds fun enough. ]

What can I say? Everything here is just so interesting!

[functionoverfeels]

[well, Tempo has absolutely decided to show up as a robot on the video feed today. whoever Honey Lemon is, she's probably a scientist of some sort, or at least the kind of person who would appreciate robotics—and she and Hiro seem to be friends, to boot. so what could go wrong?]

I can imagine the possibilities, Ms. Lemon. That trans-dimensional teleportation even exists opens the doors for countless scientific breakthroughs. It's a shame that we apparently won't be able to bring this knowledge back with us.

[cartesianspidertank]

Hello, Honey Lemon!

[It's a little girl! She's being digitally projected though, as if from Virtual Reality, not a live camera]

I agree that the prospect of appearing in a parallel universe with new laws of physics is certainty exciting! I'm curious about what possibilities you are imagining though?? As a statement it is very vague to the point of meaninglessness!

video

[honeyxlemon]

[ What an articuluate child.. ]

I was thinking about new technology, laws of science, lifeforms, cultures, and, I guess, all sorts of different things!

[tardily]

[ Barry chooses to ignore the fact that Honey Lemon feels more like something you'd add to tea rather than someone's name because honestly seeing someone smile like that makes it pretty easy to overlook. And it kind of makes Barry smile as well because it's a little contagious. ]

Depends on the possibilities we're talking about. I mean— we're kind of already living one with the whole getting superpowers element.

[ Ha. Ha. Says the idiot with powers from home, but details. ]

[honeyxlemon]

Scientific possibilities! New advancements, new information, new laws!
