Second Princess (Video)

[whitequeens]

[The video turns on to reveal Euphemia, now in a significantly more practical outfit than her huge poofy dress, in some kind of... garage? It's concrete and dimly lit by cool fluorescent bulbs, making her pink hair take on a very odd tone.] Oh, hello everyone! I hope you're doing well.

I'm actually speaking to you all today because I could use a little, ah... assistance? When I first came here, I was told that in addition to my healing powers, I had an item from my home world as well. And that item was-- this: [She takes the camera, turning it to reveal... a humanoid robot, roughly 14-15 feet tall] The experimental Knightmare Frame, 'Lancelot.' It was being developed by my brother's research facility, and the pilot was a... very, very dear friend of mine.

But I don't know much about using it, myself. Is there anyone here who considers themselves experienced in this kind of thing?

It feels a little wasteful just to leave Lancelot gathering dust in a garage like this.

I'm not sure. [though really the big difference is that mecha in his Japan aren't real.] It's kind of interesting, though! How even though the worlds are different there are some things that are similar.

[whitequeens]

That's true! Perhaps we should be focusing on the similarities rather than the differences.

[dangerouslyinlove]

[Ryoji nods.] Yeah! I'm sure there's a lot more than we think.

[whitequeens]

What are the Knightmare Frame toys in your world like, Ryoji?

[dangerouslyinlove]

Um...! [that's a good question. Ryoji wasn't super into mecha.] I think people usually have fun putting them together and stuff? So a lot of them are models.

[whitequeens]

I think we have those, too! It's especially popular with younger boys, to play with models of what their countrymen would use in a real army.

[dangerouslyinlove]

Oh, ok! Maybe they're pretty much the same, then, except... there's no real ones in my world. [not that he knows of anyway.]

[whitequeens]

That really does seem to be the sticking point, doesn't it! Well, I'll have to be satisfied knowing mine are what your world makes TV shows about.

[dangerouslyinlove]

It's the only real difference I can tell!

Has anyone been able to help you with it?

[whitequeens]

Oh, yes! I've gotten lots of offers.

[dangerouslyinlove]

That's good! I'm glad someone was able to.

[whitequeens]

Yes, me too! The people here truly are helpful.
