[ the video opens on our hero a very tired looking woman, clearly laying on her assigned bed in the communal housing area, biting her lower lip and fiddling with her phone. once she realizes she's got it recording, she starts speaking. ]

So somebody decided to combine forums, vlogging, and FaceTime all in one neat social media package. [ cat pulls a face. ] Yeah, I don't feel any less awkward just talking to a phone camera than I did when my brother decided he wanted to start vlogging and I absolutely had to be in his first video.

[ she sighs and pushes some stray hairs off her forehead. ]

Alright, so. If I'm going to be here for a while, and it looks like I am, there's a couple things I want to know. The first is why there are so many goddamn foxes in this city? It's like catdog central here. Second, just how dangerous does stuff get outside the inhabited part of the city? Is exploring past the first fences more like taking a hike in a forest in Wyoming where no one can hear you scream or walking through, I don't know, the Serengeti or Amazon? I'm not really inclined to go there either way, but just in case one of the outdoorsy nuts I know from home gets pulled here, I want to be able to sit them down and tell them why going there is a bad idea and why they shouldn't drag me along.

[ there's a pause, and cat looks up and to the side, away from the camera, clearly thinking. ]

I think that's it. Wait, no. Just in case one of my new roomies snores, is there somewhere I can get good but cheap earplugs around? I've got my headphones from home with me but I can't really sleep with those on.

[ jessica jones doesn't want to be here. yes, she sat through the orientation video, as crapass and cheesy as it was, and told the assholes who greeted her that this was a mistake. she doesn't need to be rescued or sent to a new home, but despite her demand to return to her world, she would have to wait. it's difficult to navigate the portal, they inform her, and they ask for her patience. too bad that she lacks any.

a few hours after her arrival, jess decides to grace the network with her presence. what else is there to do while she waits around in a city on the fucking moon? ]

i didn't sign up for this star trek narnia bullshit. how long does it take to fix this goddamn portal?

and where can i find a decent drink in this shithole?

[At first when the video feed clicks on it shows a ceiling but then with the noise of someone knocking things around the camera angle swings wide and downwards, revealing a mop of shaggy hair and then a kind face with blue eyes and the kind of stubble that speaks laziness rather than style, grinning widely enough to show off some perfectly white teeth.] Well hey there... city? I mean I guess I'm talkin' to all y'all at the same time.

[The feed moves as Drew stands, taking his phone device with him.] This thing is a hell of a lot fancier than my cell at home I mean look, 'm basically in HD. [Cue a moment of preening after that particular Texan drawl, the bartender looking at himself for a minute, satisfied with the results.] But uh yeah, guess I'm kinda gettin' off track here. The names Andrew Warner, but my friends call me Drew... so basically all of y'all can call me Drew 'cause we're all gonna be friends, right? [There's a look of glowing optimism in his face because Drew didn't exactly make enemies to begin with.]

Guess life here is kinda like life home, I mean with the basics at least, I'm gonna be tendin' a bar here, so I hope at least some of you like to drink. [He nods at that, as if to himself, it was basically home sweet home... just with some glaring differences that he wasn't going to get into right now because they worried him.]

Thought I'd introduce myself at least... but one last thing. [He grins, eyes suddenly glowing a supernatural blue, the focus of the camera changing momentarily.] Any other werewolves out there? Guess I'm kinda in the business for an alpha.
