genessia | [INTRO/VIDEO] ✧ when the streets are dead and the smoke is gone

[She remembers the smoke, the noise, the utter chaos in the lab. The sound of explosions in the distance. The scramble of her family doing whatever they could to protect her from whatever was attacking the lab. But now she's in a pod that vaguely reminds her of the places she uses to rest in. But it seems to be... in a cave? With water? This is rather strange. Nona finds on her chest a box with a necklace with a pendant made of various colors of jewels, a pamphlet, what looks to be money and a communication device.

After reading the pamphlet intently, she puts on her necklace and slowly walks toward the entrance of the bay. Her mind working overtime. From what the hologram told her, it seems she's been kidnapped. But how? She was all alone in a vault-like panic room sealed by both magic and silver. No one, human or faerie could ever get in...

Even more importantly, even though they have given her a place to go for now, how will this world react to her? It's obviously not a place afraid of technology, given the pod and the hologram. But how would they react to her?

It isn't visible on her face, but she is anxious. Should she even ask for help?

She turns the communicator on, sends the message to everyone near the area. On the screen appears a slight humanoid young woman with pointy ears, black braided hair, bright purple eyes, dressed in all white. It looks like she's an elf or a faerie, up until she speaks in a monotone, almost robotic voice.]

I am NONA1. An artificial faerie. I know where to go but I require to know how would this place would react towards me? [She's still reeling from having her home attacked, the last thing she needs to do is hide in this world too.]

[ Here's a human teenager with the build of a sumo wrestler. He's silent for a moment, as he tries to think of a response.]

Hm...I expect reactions ranging from friendly to indifferent.
A variety of people were brought over from other worlds.

Welcome t' the fishbowl, sweetheart!

Pretty sure y' ain't gonna have no problems 'round here that y' don't make for yerself by bein' an ass or somethin'. There's fairies an' robots aplenty, so bein' the best a both ain't gonna cause y' no grief.

[This human is rather... large. But he seems friendly enough. Nona tilts her head at the video.]

Are you sure?

[Is that... is that a fish person?]

Thank you for the reassurance, but... what are you?

[It's not said mockingly, it's just a question from her robotic voice.]

This handsome face yer lookin' at here belongs t' a bona fide badass, an' don't y' forget it, sweetheart. Also known as a bull shark type fishman. An' if I'd a been born with fins 'stead a feet y'd be lookin' at a merman. 'S all the same diff t' my kind.

So who made y'? Did they make y' look mostly like a human for a reason? Are y' a spy?

Not fully.
I've never specifically seen an artificial faerie before, but other artificial lifeforms have settled in fine.

I'm a little in doubt of the words you say.

[Listen, she just escaped an attempt on her life by people that felt threatened by her existence.]

[She blinks at him a bit. In all her research, there was never fishmen. Maybe mermaids and mermen, but they are an even more secretive people than the fae.]

I... don't think so. My creators were humanoid, although magical.

Sorry.

I do not know how to ease your worries.

[ He doesn't understand that. He doesn't know how to be reassuring.]

The people brought here are generally open minded, or they learn to be.

So they made y' t' look like them, that it? What'd they wantcha t' do for 'em, then?

It's fine, we barely know each other after all.

[And asking him to soothe her doubts is a bit too much, admittedly.]

Who are you?

[It's a rather sudden question but she feels that she's owed that.]

[Nona hesitates before she answers. The truth is there, but it's... a tad too personal to tell about right now. She was created for the purpose of bringing the use of technology in the fae world, the more radical reason is the show the elites of that world that in fact, the lower classes could effectively harness this powerful 'magic'.

Her creators got killed for it, protecting her. She knows it.]

They were very curious beings.

[It's somewhat the truth.]

[ He realizes that he probably should have introduced himself first, since she introduced herself.]

Ah, my name is Sousuke Kuze. I am human. I arrived in Genessia roughly 6 months ago.
