First Prophecy: [voice post]

[feel_nevermore]

...Raven calling Robin. Over.

[The voice sounds quite hoarse and... blasé. It's very hard to say whether it belongs to a boy or a girl.]

Robin? ...Raven calling all Titans. ...Cyborg? ...Starfire?

[A pause before another name is added somewhat reluctantly.]

...Beastboy?

[A loud sigh of impatience.]

If someone is actually getting that transmission, could they please tell me on which planet I am and how I can get away from here?

[During the last part, a low animalistic growl can be heard in the background.]

I thought I made it clear the first two times. I. am. not. food.

[The growl gets louder. Some statics can be heard over the line as if a close electromagnetic source was disturbing the transmission.]

Azarath Metrion Zinthos!

[A loud thump of something crashing into a hard surface, like let’s say a wall, followed by animal whines.]

This is really starting to get annoying...

[End of transmission.]

It's not a problem. I know it's disorienting when you arrive here.

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

That's already something... I guess.

[Raven already started holding one hand out as if to reach for the bunny... But at Al's words, she stops and lowers it back down. She shrugs.] If you say so. [She shots one last dark glare at the animal for good measure. ] Although I personnaly wouldn't be so sure about that...

Well, yes, I usually do. Although I'm not quite used to that PCD yet but... with a minimum of information from you, I should manage that. [She stares at him, waiting for his instructions.] So, where am I going?

[Voice]

[innerfirewithin.livejournal.com]

A little over a hundred people, I think, from different worlds.

... here. [x,y] Miss Unohana has a clinic for newcomers. It has food and shelter. You can find somewhere to live full-time once you get your bearings.

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

By the way, I was told of a clinic owned by a Miss Unohana. Do you know of this place? [A frown. She looks preoccupied all of a sudden.]

[Voice, then Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

[Statics over the line again...Wait for it...] Azarath! Metrion! Zinthos![ Like the first time a loud thump ensues followed by animal whines.]

[Screen switches on - Video]
What did you say? [Raven blinks once and then she seems to get it.] Ah! Sorry Zuko, I was talking to the rabbits... [And if you're really careful you can see the glimpse of a killer bunny hopping away for dear life.]

Miss Unohana's clinic? Ah, I see. I only hope this place is not too crowded at the moment... [She looks uneasy about something.] Thank you for your help, Zuko.

[al_truism]

They're not very brave. But they'll try to take you down in groups if they can. Making a loud noise or stomping the ground even works if they get too close. The meat's good, at least. [Al grins.] It looks like you know how to take care of yourself. That'll come in handy here.

Oh, good. That ought to make everything much easier. There is a yellow button on top of your PCD that'll give you your coordinates, and it should also bring up a map.

Ms. Unohana's clinic is at [x,y]. It doubles as a temporary home for people starting out, so you'll be able to find a bed and a warm meal there.

[Video]

[senshible.livejournal.com]

Yes, I know where it is. It's here. [x,y]

Are you alright?

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

[A knowing smirk.] Taking care of oneself comes handy everywhere...

[She spots the yellow button and presses it.] Ah, yes, here's the map. And so the clinic would be... There. Alright. I'll be heading there then.

However [She frowns, looking anxious.] I'd rather quickly find some more private place if I can. Yes, it would be safer... Do you know of someone looking for roommates or... ? [She stops abruptly.</small] I'm sorry, Al. You've already been very helpful. I wouldn't want to bother you any longer.

Re: [Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Yes, I already had those coordinates. But what I meant to say is: Is it a big public and crowded place?

I'll be alright. [A blatant lie. She appreciates Ami's concern though.]

[Video]

[senshible.livejournal.com]

It's not usually crowded, unless there's been a lot of fighting. I haven't heard about a lot of fighting over the network recently.

[Video]

[al_truism]

That's definitely true.

Don't be silly, Raven. You've just arrived in a completely different world, it's natural that you'd have questions and need help. That's what I'm here for, right? [But he does have to stop a moment and think.]

A few... asking on the network usually has the best results. You could try that first, especially with winter coming along.

[Video]

[innerfirewithin.livejournal.com]

[Guh, he hates using video. People always stare at his face. But arriving in Adstringendum brand new with a stranger talking to you is hardly comforting... plus, this girl doesn't really seem to be annoying, like everyone else in this place.

So Zuko switches his feed to video, too.]

She always has a room open for everyone.

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

[She doesn't stare. She just ackowledges the fact that he switched his feed to video by a curt nod.]

Or so I heard... [But the frown is still there.] The thing is I don't like to live in crowded place... [A frustrated sigh.] But it's just a temporary solution [ And also the only one she has if she doesn't want to spend the night throwing killer bunnies into walls] so it'll have to do for now...

[Oh and Al said she should ask that on the network, so why not start with Zuko?] Is there anyone you know who'd be looking for a new roommate...?

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

That's good. I don't like the place I live in to be too crowded.

Fighting? [Raven looks at the buildings and landscape. Ruins and wastelands. This city indeed looks like it went throught several severe fights. Wars even.] Is there a war going on here?

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

If you say so. [She hates to look so lost and dependant.] Thank you.

Okay, I'll try that.

Winter, yes. I heard it was already Christmas time here. [A snort, before she mutters ironically, visibly speaking to herself.] Merry Christmas to me, eh? Azar... I promise that if I get out of here, I'm willing to taste BeastBoy's fake meat.

Re: [Video]

[al_truism]

[Al tends to gravitate towards those who hold that view. He'll preserve her dignity.] You're welcome.

It might not be the same as home, but -- we'll try to make it special.

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

[A nod.]

I don't think I know what a traditional Christmas party really looks like anyway... [That's what you get for letting an alien girl and a green shapeshifter take care of those things.]

But maybe I can help with something... I mean, I have no taste for decorations or anything but I'm good at... moving things around. Say if you need to hand stuff up or such.

[Her offer sounds a bit awkward. And she kind of avoids meeting his eyes as she says that. Some part of her wants to feel useful while some other part wonders why she even bothers... Yes, Raven has a complex mind.]

[Video]

[senshible.livejournal.com]

Not that I'm aware of, but the Animus bring people here who were enemies in their home worlds. Sometimes enemies who have been defeated before. It... doesn't make for pleasant times.

Of course, they also bring in people who simply... cannot get along with the populace. It leads to strife.

[Video]

[innerfirewithin.livejournal.com]

[A soft snort.]

Neither do I and I live with four other people.

[Zuko doesn't do 'roommates' with people he doesn't know, so he doesn't offer himself... but he's quiet for a moment, legitimately thinking.]

I think Hinata is living in a house by herself. She probably has the room, if you want to ask her, if she's around. She's a girl with white eyes and purple hair. She's... nice. She'll probably help you out.

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

I see. Those Animus definitely sound like very twisted... spirits.

[Where are superheroes when you need them... ;-)]

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

[She smirks at that. This sounds very familiar.]

So do I, back there in my reality. I share a tower with my four teammates. But it's a big tower. So there's usually room enough for each of us to have some privacy... At least a few hours a day.

[That sounds pretty good to Raven. Much better than the clinic at any rate... Especially if "nice" also means "quiet" and that's how she takes Zuko's words. They seem to have similar taste as for roommates.]

Hinata. Okay. I'll try to find her and ask.

[The PCD still shows Raven's face but the background changes slowly as if she was steadily lifted from the floor.]

Thanks again!

[She briefly waves at him before the feed switches off.]

[Video]

[senshible.livejournal.com]

Yes, they do. I have yet to meet them, but they apparently tend to show themselves before they toy with us. I plan to speak to them the next time they show themselves.

[Yeah, if only someone like Raven or Sailor Mercury were around. Oh wait!]

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Yes, I second you on that. Someone has to face them. [And by someone, she means herself. Raven's still persuaded to be the only superhero around. If only she knew...!]

If you see them before I do, just call me. I'll come right on the spot!

[Azarath power, make up! Fufufu...XDD At least, Raven feels like she is on a mission now. STOP THE ANIMUS. It alsmost feels like home... That and "rebuild Astri's library" as a side quest. ;-)]

[Video]

[senshible.livejournal.com]

I'll remember that. [Yes, if she ever decides to try and attack an Animus oh god why, Mercury would be smarter than that.] Just be careful if you do face them. They don't like that, from what I know.

[Heeee, Azarath, the newest member of Silver Millennium. XD Oh, she should talk to Harry Potter and Hermione Granger about the library. Harry brought it up that Hermione ought to try rebuilding it and Hermione jumped on the idea. Harry would love someone to help save him from his own idea]

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Evil overlords [Or spirits. Whatever.] usually don't. This has never prevented us from facing them though. [By us, she means her team: the Teen Titans West.] However I'm not sure if I can bring all of them down by myself. Especially since we apparently don't know exactly how many of them there is.

[Yay! <33 And raven would totally hate me for calling her that. >_< Good idea! Raven already met Hermione for "Christmas exchange" and they got along pretty well. (two nerds and bookworms like them, how very surprising!) That's a good idea for a log anyway. Thanks!!! ♥]
