video; the road not taken

[ Sitting before the screen is Kitty Jones...or, well. A girl who looks like Kitty. A girl who sort of looks like Kitty. Because whereas Kitty Jones tends to be cute, this girl is flawlessly, sleekly elegant - fiercely beautiful in a way that only very expensive haircuts and very expensive cosmetics can accomplish. Her bearing is different - unsmiling, haughty, eyeing the camera with contempt - and her accent, too, is altered - posh, educated, a little drawling. She speaks in a low and authoritative voice, beginning straightaway with no hesitation. ]

Since quite a few people are having a bit of trouble with this, I'd like to first introduce myself, so that no one calls me anything silly. My name is Medea LeFay. I'm a Junior Undersecretary with the Ministry for Internal Affairs. Some of you may think I have some other name, but I have reason to believe that the creature that resembles me was actually a demon taking my face in an attempt to slander and discredit me.

[ She...actually has reason to believe that the creature was in fact some other version of her, but, well...best to try to spread a bit of misinformation, to reduce the possibility that anyone will try to use the name Kitty Jones to cast harmful magic on her. ]

Second - [ She tosses her head, flipping her perfect glossy hair over her shoulder. ] I have been made to understand through my research and investigations that events such as those which have befallen us, with memory-alterations or dimensional displacement, are often followed by an attack by some foreign power or dissident group. My home is adequately warded, and as a magician of the first order I am thoroughly prepared and able to defend it. If an attack comes, any who find themselves in need of sanctuary may find refuge with me.

[ And doesn't that seem like an attractive offer? Because this girl seems like someone who would be so fun to spend time with. So fun. ]

And third...I have heard speculation that these changes have been brought about by magical means. As I stated, I am a magician myself, and have no knowledge of any spells that can cause confusion of this sort. What evidence do we have that magic is at its root? Any who have knowledge of this, speak; I charge you.

[ Then a beat. ]

And fourth...My home seems to be infested with these - small creatures. Crab-like, but with colorful shells. They seem to be pets. What are they, and how does one care for them?

[ what a nice-seeming young lady this is. ]

[While this may be a much sleeker version of Kitty, Jeff's looking like a more disheveled version of himself, hair barely styled and beard not entirely groomed. Even his voice comes out as more of a growl.]

Kitty, right?

[Trolling or genuine? No one will ever know.]

[Her annoyance gets the smallest twitch of his lips, a smirk threatening to make an appearance but never quite succeeding.]

Jeff. Jeff Winger. I'm sure we've met.

Hey, at least I'm memorable. I don't see you with your own TV show. You're just a kid with an attitude problem.

Nope. Why would they be? No one can prove anything. I could say I was the King of the world back home, but it's worthless here. You're worthless.

I was. Apparently. I don't really go in for that any more. I'm impressive all by myself.

[Paranoid and self conscious as he is these days, Jeff's mind automatically jumps to that being a jibe at his lack of a limb. Watch him go from smug douche to snarling douche in a matter of seconds.]

What's that supposed to mean?!

See, now I know you're a child. This is the dumbest thing ever.
