[The video feed clicks on: Nysrog, looking directly into the communicator, visible from the shoulders up, her clothing giving a distinct military—though old military—vibe.]

Don’t be alarmed.

[Said calmly, and anyone watching soon realizes why. In a moment the video begins to distort, though her voice continues more or less with a minimum of warping.]

With the events of the recent swear-in, and the growing… discontent, among other feelings, among the people of America and Russia with the presence of imPorts, I wanted to extend an offer.

On a recurring or just temporary basis, I’d like to offer protective services—to be a bodyguard, if you’d like. Against other imPorts; against the natives; either way. I have extensive training in self-defense, and offense. I was in Finland. I saw what happened there, with the toxin.

I can demonstrate my abilities, if you like. In person—as you can see, my powers interfere with video.

[Not alarmed, but definitely curious. Also not turning down the opportunity to talk to laaaadies.]

Extensive training in defense and offense, huh? What is it you did back home?

[As if in answer, the video screeches and gets distorted for probably a full 10 seconds. When it stops,]

[Yikes. Elsa appears to get slightly farther away as she holds the comm out at arm's length.]

Fair enough.

Unless you like this kind of thing.

Can't say I'd call it an improvement. This whole network's a piece of shit though. You can only ruin it so much.

Your talents must be many to offer such a service.

I have the usual repertoire, and more than a few things extra. Are you interested?

Not telling any of your prospective employers how you've ripped civilians in half, huh? Classy.

[there's a lot of ways that she could go about this, most of them involving caution or delicacy. unfortunately Hazel rarely employs those on a good day, and certainly not over a topic that she feels this strongly about. all that hot anger she thought she'd at least put away from the swear-in comes rushing back - but she can do something this time, something more. it's what she'd promised, after all.]
