[ The girl that appears now on the network is not incredibly competent with this technology, but nor would she publicly broadcast without having had a bit of practice beforehand. That flicker of uncertainty in her expression is stifled, and her smile is subtle but warm. ]
Hello, [ is said, with a twinge of a raised eyebrow. ] My name is Daenerys Stormborn, of the House Targaryen, and this next moon will mark the six months I've been here. I am not the first of my land to arrive -- many of you are already familiar with Ambassador Baelish.
And over the past few months, more and more of my people have come through the Porter. We represent different lands, different values, different politics, but in this world, we find ourselves with more similarities than we'd ever imagine sharing. If any of you of Westeros or Essos are viewing this [ because gods know it took her a while ] and we've yet to meet, I'd very much like to rectify that.
There are more than just us, too, who have likewise entered this land and felt like strangers to its technology, its ways. If you feel more at home in a world of horses and candles and swords, I'd like to know you too, whether you're new or have been here for sometime. We face a conflict between wishing to recall always the worlds from which we hail, and represent them proudly, while achieving a level of integration that ensures we have a voice. Perhaps there is a solution to find, between all of us.
Likewise, [ she adds, ] if you are entirely at home here but perhaps would be willing to act as a guide, then please do step forward with your name and your skills. You would want also to be a patient sort of person, but I assure you, we learn quickly.

[She gestures with one hand to the fancy looking laboratory set up behind her.]
I'd love to learn more about your world too. I get the whole not wanting to lose your voice thing. Maybe it'd help to teach those of us from more modern worlds about how things are in yours.

[ She's a little dry, there, but not unserious. She nods to her screen. ]
Are you a doctor?
video;
Sorta. Not quite yet. I'm a PhD student back home, but I'm not a medical doctor so probably not the kind of doctor you're looking for. I study genetics and evolutionary development which I know is way, way beyond your time, don't worry if you don't know what it is.

[ If we're to share stories, anyway. ]
And you guess correctly, [ she adds, with a slight smile ] neither of those terms are familiar.

[Cosima seems delighted to hear more, curious and attentive.]
It's okay. You're not alone. I can catch you up.

But I don't think women number among them.
