[ VIDEO ]

[ Upset? Sheryl wasn't upset. In truth, 'upset' would not begin to describe what she is feeling. She was furious, as she doesn't take to kindly to people who kidnap her. That is probably why it took a while before she was in the right mood to finally test the communicators.

When the video turns on, you will see a shot of Sheryl's annoyed face with a harried-looking hologram behind her. Sheryl raised one hand to show the camera a ball of crumpled up brochures.

Did these people just expect Sheryl Nome to roll over and accept it like they were entitled to herself and her freedom? That was unacceptable. Sheryl Nome followed no ones terms but her own. ]

To the people who thought they could contain me, you are all cowards. I don't need your false hospitality or your games.

I am Sheryl Nome and I live by no other rules but mine. For now, I hope we have an understanding.

[ ACTION ]

[ Despite her brave declaration, Sheryl was actually more afraid than she was letting on. Grace had always helped her through whenever she bravely charged one --- but now, she was truly alone. However, her pride would never allow her to become weak at this kind of pressure.

While she was not to keen about accepting help from her captors, she was still in need of information to better understand the situation in the perspective of fellow victims.

She approaches someone and will smile, looking much kinder than the persona on the video ... ]

Hello, do you have a moment?

Threaded | Top-Level Comments Only

I don't think that they can hear you. Whoever they are.

Bienvenido, though. For all that's worth.

[there is the sound of a sewing machine]

[ Sheryl stared blankly at the communicator. She had not expected someone to reply at all.

She did not understand the language the woman was speaking, but it did not sound anything bad. ]

Thank you ... ? [ Sounding uncertain. ] ... I suppose.

Hm. [the sound stops and Imelda inspects the trousers she was working on. ]

These things should be thrown away. Men. [she snorts]

Anyway, did you need help niña? Somewhere to go? A place to get started?

[ Men? Sheryl did not understand what that meant, but she did appreciate the help. ]

A place to go would be a good place to start.

[ She could figure out later what to do next. She might not like it --- but she needed to survive. ]

Can you help me?

Edited 2019-03-22 03:18 (UTC)

Of course. Read those brochures though, they will also help.

[she sighs]

I will be on my way.

But, as a warning, I am a dead woman so por favor don't scream when you see me.

I will do my best.

[ Reading brochures. Sounds like fun. However, she will stomach it if she had to. It will have to wait until later, because her temper concerning the kidnapping was still seething. ]

Thank you very much. I am not so rude as to scream at my host.

I am not your host. Or at least not in charge.

[she gets up and touches up her hair]

Stay where you are and I will be there in half an hour.

[ Stay where she was. She could probably take shelter at one of those record stores. If she was going to be here awhile, she might as well study the local music. ]

Alright. I will be inside a record store called, [Insert random name].

Ay, of course. Let me guess, you are some kind of musico. [it's a bit of a leap, she knows, but given her luck...]

I am. The very best I might add. [ Yes, Imelda. You have another musician here. ]

Edited 2019-03-22 03:58 (UTC)

Hello. You're new.

And rightfully pissed because, yeah, you got the raw end of the deal. Yadda yadda yadda, you need to make a declaration of purpose. You're a pretty big deal. For what its worth that's not going to mean a whole lot, but hey, you said it so there it is.

So, now that you've got that well and good, what are you going to do?

Edited 2019-03-22 03:56 (UTC)

Ha! [just what she needs, another De le Cruz] I could outsing you if I wanted. [and she could]

[ She didn't have a complete game plan yet as to what she was going to do, but she was not about to admit it. ]

I thought the answer was simple. I survive of course.

[ She just needs figuring out how to do that, but she will. She had been through so much worse. ]

[ Is that a challenge? ]

I highly doubt it, but I certainly welcome you to try.

I will show you what it means to sing. [it has been a while, but]

Give me a little more time, I have something to collect.

[ Bring it on. ]

I will be waiting.

Makes sense. You've got such a long road ahead of you. And resources are scarce. There are days I go five... six whole hours without eating. If you use that currency they give you can probably manage a whole... 30... maybe 31 days, tops. Its a real wasteland out there. You're definitely going to have to forage around. You may have to get your hands dirty by going into a convenience store for sustenance. Maybe use a cup to tap water from the drinking fountains.

Think you can manage?

Hector! Where are you?

[He is very confused but also very happy.]

Ah, Imelda? Uh...in Fayren? Whatever it was, I didn't do it!

In Fayren? Where in Fayren?

Oh never mind. Meet me in Genessia. Near the place we woke up. Bring the guitar.

[and she ends the feed]

Bring my-

[Annnnd she's hung up. Okay? But, well he can do that at least. Even if he has no idea why he is doing it.]

Ms Nome? It's nice to meet you! I'm Satou Kuroneko, Guardian of Genessia!

[The petite girl on screen smiles calmly, though noting Sheryl's expression.]

I'm afraid we haven't managed to contact whoever trapped us here yet...

I will go on a diet. [ Sarcasm. A frightening a picture she was describing wasn't a stranger to poverty. As a child, she learned what starvation felt like and it was why she was always determined not to go back there. ]

Thank you for the tip. I will keep those in mind. [ Drinking fountains? Indeed. She could not imagine. ]

I can manage. I have always been a survivor but thank you for the concern.

[she is waiting there at the beach fairly impatiently, and stalks up to him as she sees him]

Ay. Look at you. Still a scarecrow. Always a scarecrow. I miss your charro suit.

[but never mind. She brushes him off and takes off his hat to finger comb his hair into place and does her best to make him look presentable before grabbing his arm and hauling him off to the record store to look for this niña]

Well I am a, ay!

[Old, old habits spring up and he ducks just enough for her to fix his hair then gives a yelp as he is dragged off to...who knows where!]

I-imelda!
