[The feed starts with a woman sitting on a bench with a little Gothita beside her. The woman looks like she was plucked out of a history book, with her spine ramrod-straight, her skin the color of porcelain, her waist so narrow that she must be wearing a corset, and her giant green floor-length dress using way too much fabric to be practical. Seriously, she could probably clothe a small country with all the cloth in that dress. Rocket uniform? What Rocket uniform?]

Good morning. [The woman carefully folds her hands in her lap, ignoring the Gothita beside her making a kissy face at the camera.] I am told that this object is ‘broadcasting’ what it sees to whosoever owns another one of its kind, so I decided that I should introduce myself.

[She inclines her head slightly, flashing a beautiful smile.] I am Miss Justine Florbelle. Don’t concern yourself with explaining the current situation to me—people already have, yet I find myself quite displaced. Not by the animals—they, I have accepted. No, what I am curious about is the current date, because I have received conflicting answers. [Yep. Kissy-faced bunny goth things, totally believable. Time skip, no.]

Does anyone care to assist a poor lady in distress?

[She may be out of a history book, but it's a history that Envy's lived through, and that in itself is interesting enough to ping him. He inclines his head forward in a brief bow when he turns on his video, the respectful gesture at odds with the amused smirk on his face.]

Welcome to 2013. You know, you're awfully calm for a lady in distress.

Well, I suppose I could add a touch of fainting for your sake. [She flashes a flirty smile, although... is that hair normal for the future?] But I figured it would be quite unproductive to spend my time fanning myself instead of simply asking questions.

[Yep. In the future, styling your hair to look like a tree is the height of fashion.]

[Envy laughs quietly, still wearing that same smirk. This lady seems interesting already.] No, no need for any fainting or fanning at all. It's just always interesting to see people show up who aren't panicking.

So, Miss Florbelle, any questions you haven't already gotten answers for?

Well... [She touches her chin in mock thought, then smiles and folds her hands again.] No one has told me what your name is yet.

I'd be pretty surprised if someone had.

Name's Envy.

Envy? What a curious name. Is it popular in the future, or are you merely special?

[Because naming someone after a sin would have... Interesting consequences in her time.]

My mother just had a real interesting sense of humor. Back home, I went by aliases.

[When you're a monster who only goes out into society to be a spy, not many people find out your name for there to be consequences. He laughs again, and shrugs.] But here, nobody seems to care, so it's no trouble to give out my real name.

Although I'm not so much from the future as you'd think. I might even have been born in an earlier year than you.

[She arches an eyebrow, then her smile widens. Finally. Finally. Someone who is familiar with her time.]

Oh? Then when might you have been born, if I may ask?

I was born in 1543, but it's been a while since then.

[He actually has no idea if that's correct; he doesn't remember the exact year he was born.]

And what about you, when are you from?
