[Video] A Warm(ish) Welcome
[A bright, green eye fills the screen for a moment before a young woman pulls back from the lens. She looks a several meals and a few nights sleep short of healthy, and she's decidedly disheveled. Her grey clothes, stained with soot look rather old fashioned as well.]
----this how it works? Ah, quite. I see the little light.
How remarkable - and no smelly chemicals? ...Papa would have been over the moon about this.
[There is a slight hint of regret or sadness in her tone at this, but she seems to settle, and the view from the camera steadies. She at least seems somewhat familiar with the concept of photography.]
The nice... ...er...
[She glances to the side of her at the Kin'nal who helped her, but he's already wandered off, clearly done with her many, many questions. She carries on, regardless.]
The nice lizard said that this is the best way to speak with other Dreamfolk. Isn't that a peculiar thing? We are Dreamfolk, but this isn't a dream. Or so he says. How would you even test if something's a dream or not if you're in the dream - a pinch would hardly do - you could just be dreaming the pain like anything else.
...The cat hasn't shown up with any of his cryptic nonsense though, so suppose there's that to be thankful for.
I find it hard to imagine there are people on the other side of this camera, but that is what I was told. It sounds like a rather elaborate ruse, but I am a Dreamfolk outside of a dream - perhaps common sense is also hung out to dry.
...Meeting others has... never really been my forte, but it couldn't hurt to try.
My name is Alice. Alice Liddell.

[He just gave a big sigh. He was really tired of not looking normal to people; he got enough of that from the other cats in Sisa when he was cursed. At least that wasn't apparent anymore.]

Not a bad sort of different. I wish cats could talk in my world.

[It wasn't all that, and he partly knew it thanks to his empathy, but Konoe hated being stared at as different.]
