00? ( video. ) not sarissa, tho.

( There is a woman on screen who looks remarkably unconcerned.

She also looks familiar, possibly, given that the family resemblance between Sarissa and her grandmother is staggering. Notable differences – this woman is obviously wearing something a little more era appropriate for this place, but still not quite right, in faded green and brown cut to match World War II era demands, all practicality. A scar, or an injury in the process of becoming a scar, cuts down from her left cheekbone towards her jaw, and it creases into something like a dimple when she speaks.

Between the knuckles of her fore and index fingers rests a cigar, white smoke curling upwards and blooming outwards like a drop of ink twisting through water. Her accent, when she speaks, is markedly Greek. )


I have always heard America called the “Land of Opportunity.” Opportunity— ( A small gesture with her free hand, palm flat and facing down - so-so. )

Maybe. Feet draggers, I think, more likely. And poor filing, ah? That is definite.

( There is a little smile, though it’s not a very mirthful thing, as she picks up a file. ) I was giving the paperwork for a Sarissa Theron. They insist it’s mine, but— no. If anyone knows this woman, I think it better these papers get back to safe hands.

( Her smile widens, sharpens. )

My name is Eunike. For the record? This is— cock and balls. Bullshit. Dragging us from our own wars, to fight theirs? That is convenient, no? Cowardice, I think.


( Note: this is related to the Dial Straits plot. Sarissa ported out on the 1st March and this is set on the 3rd – for those two days Sarissa’s device would have been disconnected. Now is back in action, but in the wrong hands. )

Whatever. Just stick with Sarah. You can trust her.
hardedged: (a lady's for)

[personal profile] hardedged 2017-03-03 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
Don't believe me? Fine. But I'm telling the truth.
hardedged: (but then he wanna)

[personal profile] hardedged 2017-03-03 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ god, yia yia. you are a pain in the ass. she exhales in frustration. ]

Jessica Jones. We're... [ friends? lovers?? fuck buddies??? ] Acquainted.

[ #nailedit ]
hardedged: (and i would rather)

[personal profile] hardedged 2017-03-03 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
Bitch all you want, but I didn't do anything. Might wanna check your calendar.
hardedged: (take control)

[personal profile] hardedged 2017-03-03 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
It doesn't wash away shit. Nothing will.

[ the hint of vulnerability in her tone disappears. she's back to all hard edges. ]

But if you think you're the only one who's lost somebody — who's suffered, think again.
hardedged: (as I so often do)

[personal profile] hardedged 2017-03-03 07:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ she scoffs. ]

Look, lady. I'm not Captain Fucking America. I don't wave a goddamn flag around or sing the Star-Spangled Banner. Sure, there are a lot of heartless pricks here. You can find them anywhere.

My family died. And I couldn't do shit to save them. You don't see me picking fights with random assholes.

But go ahead. Have fun blaming me. I don't give a crap.

[ with that, she hangs up. sarah's on her way to help. she'll be fine. that's all jess cares about, at the end of the day, no matter how annoyed she feels. ]

Seems about 50/50. Sometimes people are here for a fucking hot second and others are here for a year or longer.
coppelganger: (hitsville u.k.)

[personal profile] coppelganger 2017-03-03 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, thank god for that.

[ Sarah can't help but roll her eyes. That shit sounds like something Sarissa would say. And—suddenly there's a flash of something, not quite a memory. She leans forward. ]

What did you say your name is again?
coppelganger: (dead and gone)

[personal profile] coppelganger 2017-03-03 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, fuck.

[ Suddenly the pieces are starting to fit together. The time period and the name and the accent and the scar. Oh, fuck. ]
coppelganger: (safe european home)

[personal profile] coppelganger 2017-03-03 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I just figured out who you are.

No, we don't have a responsibility to it. We don't get anymore say in where we're born, then we do in being brought here.
coppelganger: (tribulations)

[personal profile] coppelganger 2017-03-04 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
You're her grandmother.

[ And stop giving her that smarmy look, Yia Yia. ]
incogneto: (always an asshole)

[personal profile] incogneto 2017-03-04 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, they sent me through to an earlier time. You'll find things like that don't play by the rules you're used to, Eunike. Once I was gone from here for twenty-four hours, but while I was at home twenty years had passed.

You'll find that it's the same for a sizable portion of us.
