[ Holy jittercam, Batman. When the video feed clicks on, whoever's manning the communicator is moving it so quickly that at first it's difficult to see what's being filmed. After a couple seconds, the blur of colors settles into a skinny young girl, sprawled on her bed, lollipop stick poking out of her mouth. Judging by how smoothly the communicator's filming now, she must have set it down onto some kind of hard surface.

Brianna pops the lollipop out of her mouth in order to speak. ]

Hey, you. Yeah, you. You are so lucky, and I'll tell you why. You're in the presence of a bona fide superhero. "But Breeze!" I hear you saying, or typing, or whatever. "We're all superheroes!" Well, not really. Because I don't know about you, but since I got here I've been hearing people whining about how imPorts here don't want to fight crime. Blah, blah. I'm not here to shame anyone. Not all of us are up to that kind of life.

[ In goes the lollipop. Out comes the lollipop. ]

That's where I come in. I'm offering my services to help you out with whatever you need. Fight a baddie? I can do that. Deliver some vitally important message? You got it ASAP. Clean your messy room? I can get that done in about thirty seconds. All I ask for in return is a pair of size six sneakers, or some cash. I don't even care what they look like or what brand they are or how much you pay, as long as it's not a total rip-off.

[ She reaches for the camera again and after another dizzying second of jittercam, the video is pointing at a pair of the rattiest, most falling-apart shoes you've ever seen someone wear. ]

See, that? That's the one crappy thing about having super speed. [ Well, one of them, anyway. Brianna flips the communicator so it's aimed at her face again, then grins widely. ] So, yeah. I hope this can be the start of a wonderful business relationship.

[ A pause. ] Oh, right. And if anyone can tell me what a lifestyle advisor is supposed to do, that would be cool.

[ And then, signing off, she winks. ]

First off, I am hella cool.

Second off, if you get a tattoo before you're done growing it'll look all shitty and stretched later on.

Oh... really? I thought that was just if you got one on your stomach or something.

No? Dude, you're what, twelve? You'll probably grow at least another three or four inches.

That stretches everything.

You think so?

[ She grins. ]

Oh yeah. Bet you're gonna spring up like a beanpole.

[Chloe loves that expression, don't ask any questions.]

I really want to get curves. [ That's probably never going to happen, though. ]

[Chloe just shrugs.]

You never know. I did too but.

[She just kind of gestures at all of her.]

My friend Dekka, she had nice curves. She was always hiding them under giant t-shirts, though.

How old is she?

Fourteen, fifteen? Older than me.

Yeah she'll grow out of hiding it eventually. I knew girls like that.

It's cause boys are probably staring at her a lot.

That makes sense...

Yup. Besides, if you're gonna end up curvy you've got plenty of time.

I'm more exception than rule. You'll probably be fine.

Yeah, I mean, at least I know I'm cute.

[That made her laugh.]

You sure are. Abuse the hell out of that.

[ She winks. ]

Why thank you.

[Yeah, this girl was definitely going to be a troublemaker. Which just had Chloe grinning.]

So, you made any friends yet?

... nah, not really. But I will. What about you?

This lady named Sarah. Seems pretty cool, she's letting me crash with her. Has a lot of identical sisters which is kind of weird.

[Still stuck on quintuplets...]

[ Which is funny since Brianna was likewise taken in by Alison, but she hasn't met any other clones yet. ]

I met a couple nice ladies who gave me food and let me take a bath at their place, but it's weird, you know? I've lived on my own for a long time. I don't know if I want to live with a bunch of people.

There are worse things to have than a place to sleep, kid.

Give it a try. If you hate, bolt.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

You checked out the house they stuck you in yet?

Yeah, but I haven't met anyone who lives there yet.

Yeah. I went past mine too but it seemed mostly empty.

Crashing with somebody else instead.
