[Her arrival was common: Waking in the strange pod, stepping into shallow water, acquiring printed pamphlets along with a holographic presentation... Fayet folds the papers into origami cranes, which rest in her palm for only a brief moment. Which a breath, they take off flying as if they were real birds. 

She hums in amusement at her own magical ability. For now, these first few hours, she'll take it easy. Fayet heads off down the streets of Genessia, with no shoes on her feet and her long lilac hair trailing behind her.]

Interesting... You there. [The young woman points, addressing a stranger with friendly authority in her voice,] How long have you been held captive in this "Genessia?"

Salutations. Genessia, correct? That's how I should greet the general public here? But then, how should I greet our supposed captors? Hm.

How about "thank you?" Thank you, Genessia. For creating an indestructible cage, with lives from so many other worlds-- No, other unvierses. Other omniverses, I'm sure! This is the most excellent place for me to begin. Yes, thank you for this cage and all of these people.

But I'd like to take over now. To all of you comfortable in Genessia: I'll be here now, keeping you content and satisfied. To those of you wishing to leave... Why? Why would you leave this entertaining experiment? Is there an effort in place to leave this place at all? Has any progress been made? Do let me know... I'd like to crush it as soon as possible, and stay with you all. Forever.

Huh. We haven't had one of you "world dominating" types here in a while.

[Gale's in the video reclined in his desk chair, arms folded behind his head and legs crossed upon the desk. He looks as bored and discontent as can be.]

We ain't here to be guinea pigs for you, so I'd recommend cuttin' the crap and just accept your containment here like the rest of us, sweetheart.

[fatestrings]

Oh dear, you've misunderstood. I don't want you to think that I see you as guinea pigs. I'm quite content with you all as you are... At your happiest, most safe, state.

I would never do something as rough as dominating you all. I'm a gentle soul, rest assured.

[Cue the facescrub.]

One, yes, there are active efforts underway. Some of us are actually needed, in our worlds. Others would be quite happy to stay here, myself among them. But make no mistake, we're not looking for a ruler of any kind. We have a sort of democracy among ourselves to elect people to defend us against threats inside and outside this gilded cage, and enough gods, demigods, superbeings, and just plain old fashioned mad scientists here to drive Azathoth sane.

So, tell me. What exactly do you bring to the table that's new and unexpected? Let the monologue begin!

[fatestrings]

Amusing one, aren't you? I've never heard anything like that before. And goodness me, I've never heard of such things.

[She smiles politely, her poker face maintained.]

I am one who creates universes. I guard them, as is my purpose in existing, and make sure they run smoothly. So long as your democracy does not endanger your peace, I suppose I've no reason to disrupt it, hm?

[Rosinante would absolutely like to get away from all of these power hungry nutcases that seem to present themselves in his life. Is it too much to ask for a world without people like this? Yes, he knows the answer to that stupid and fanciful passing thought already. But it doesn't mean that he wouldn't enjoy a break from the insanity.

He figures that it's best to try to find out a little more about her. Although she's made it obvious that she's absolutely bad news, it doesn't mean he won't benefit from more information. He's not going to do it with any method that might show his face or real emotions though, so texting is how it's going to have to be.]

So you'll be taking over? What happens if the captors don't agree with this decision?

[fatestrings]

If they disagree with my desire for a peaceful paradise, then aren't they enemies to us all? I would fight them, if it means protecting this place.

[Given the way he dresses, Ted's perfectly poised to be pointed out.]

Good morning, miss. May we start with names before interrogations? I'm Ted.

[fatestrings]

[His introduction gets a giggle out of her. Fayet gives a small nod as a bow, smiling at him apologetically.]

You're quite kind to correct me. I am Fayet. I just now arrived.

[Video]

[liorafae]

[There's a small, gold dragon on the screen. This almost sounds like an attempt at a forced conquest, but at the same time, this person seems so pleasant about it. So Liora's a bit confused.]

Take over? How do you plan to take over?

[fatestrings]

Sharing my ways over a public feed may be ill advised, but I suppose I have gotten this far...

I will work on gaining control over the environment, to start, and ensure that life here might continue without incident. A reign of peace is my style, you see.

[video]

[justicereigns]

I don't want to be part of any experiment.

People have tried, and it's about as effective as being trapped in a bubble 10,000 kilometers under the ocean. Even if you break through the barriers, it doesn't mean you're getting anywhere, just letting the darkness in.

[fatestrings]

Is that so?

Does that mean it is safer inside these barriers? That's good to know. I'll have to focus on making the existing space as comfortable as possible, then.

[Ten is just happening by - though he checks every so often given how many there are from his universe here; he's in his usual blue pin stripe suit/pants with red sneakers and walking like a school boy. He does turn around to answer the question and answers very casually with his hands in his pockets]

A year and eight months. Why?

[fatestrings]

Goodness. That's a long time for some mortals.

[She smiles calmly, expression and posture mostly serene... sans the way she is bobbing up and down on her tiptoes. In that sense, her excitement is clear.]

I merely worried that this was too good to be true... But almost two years, hm? Have you known anyone to be here longer than that?

[action]

[willing_sheath]

[Tomoe pauses as she is passing. Random questioning is random but doesn't seem overly obtrusive.]

Just over six months.

[fatestrings]

I see... I only just arrived myself. Six months... That's not even long enough for a child to learn to walk. Is it hard to adapt?

[trollkeru]

You sound awfully creepy. Like out of a horror film creepy.

[He just pictures those creepy people that speak in monotone about everything will be okay when really things were not okay.]

[fatestrings]

Horror... film? Ah, so you're from a modern era? 20th or 21st century, guessing by your appearance..?

My apologies. I suppose excitement can twist a doll's face into something unsightly.

Video.

[hot_handed]

Your creepy possessive act is pissing me off. I'll wipe all of your motivation out with my fists.

[fatestrings]

[Her eyes widen briefly, only for a motherly expression to overtake her surprise. Fayet presses her fingers together.]

A child! They have children here! Though, you don't look to be my darling's type of son. What's your name?

[Video]

[what_is_a_man]

[Have a very unimpressed looking vampire dad.]

Bold claims. In honesty, I doubt you have the ability to follow up on those ambitions of yours. Declaring yourself a ruler and actually being one are two very different things, I think you'll find.

[fatestrings]

“I think that I’ve found,” you mean. I have taken care of thousands of universes, and their branching timelines. I’m confident I can help this world as well.

But you seem quite experienced yourself, if you too know that distinction.

[Aizawa was done with one job and heading back home for the next, this work-a-holic. Then the woman's voice reached his ear. He didn't say anything right away, maybe someone else would answer. After a moment of silence, he sighed and finally answered.]

Depends, why you ask?

[fatestrings]

[Her gaze sweeps skyward, towards the fabled barrier.]

I’ve only just arrived myself. I’m wondering what the average time of captivity is.

[innocent_royal]

I have my own kingdom to rule. While I am happy with my situation, I still have a duty to my people.

I'll regard you as a friend and ally if your intentions are true, however, even if formal diplomacy cannot be conducted.

I am Princess Anastasia of the Kingdom of Nivia. Who might you be, and why do you insist on establishing yourself as Mother to all?

[fatestrings]

Mother? Hm...

Well. Nice to meet you, Princess. Like you have a duty to your people, I have a duty to protect every universe. I will not overlook this one.

[guitar_hero]

Oh, wonderful. I've been looking to serve a benevolent overlord for a while now. Look it's on my bucket list. [shows a notepad]

It's going to be nostalgic to check this off. We've been together a while this desire and I.

[fatestrings]

Kind offer, but I’ve made no request for service. You may simply focus on yourself. Should you have any concerns for your comfort while here, I shall do my best to address them.

[spacepeterpan]

Always one, isn't there.

[His reaction's certainly not the indignant crusader, as though he's sort of used to this kind of thing.]

Worse things than a benevolent overlord, though, and easier to deal with, I'll say that, might even be a bit refreshing after all the shadows and mystery.
