Network Post - Video- un: amityblight

WHO:Amity Blight and you!
WHERE: Network Post
WHEN:After the Dinosaurs are gone and she can sleep.
WHAT:Introducing Herself
WARNINGS:None to start

[The video appears, and there's a purple-haired young girl, looking curiously at it.]

Huh. It really is like Luz's phone.

[She sits back, clearing her throat. She isn't hiding her ears anymore, she knows now she doesn't have to. This isn't the human realm. It might even possibly be weirder than a place that has...ugh...giraffes. Not looking forward to meeting those weirdos if she gets out of here.]

Hi, I'm Amity. Amity Blight. I think some of you know my girlfriend Luz.

[That last part causes a slight redness. It's nice to say it out loud. Now that she can, now that she's even defied her mother's belief in a 'suitable' girlfriend - she's happy to say it as often as possible.]

I'm a witch-in-training, too, though we practice magic differently. I've got a lot to learn, or...or re-learn, I guess, now that I'm here. But it looks like it'll be a while, so I'd better settle in and get to know people.

Oh, and this is Ghost.

[She says that because a white cat has hopped up to inspect the camera, with a small mew.]

They're my Palisman. It's a long story. Think of it as sort of a cross between a familiar, a magic staff, and a wise companion-friend.

[A green haired teen is sitting cross-legged on a purple sofa in a very purple room. She waves happily at the screen.]

Hi Amity! I'm Five. I've talked to Luz before, she's pretty cool, I bet she's really happy you're here with her now too. I'm glad for you guys.

And please tell Ghost I'm kind of in love with them.

Hi Amity! My name's Luca and Luz is a friend of mine! I like your cat.

[Although he hopes this one won't try to attack him for smelling like fish like Massimo's cat used to. At least, until he fed him.]

Oh wow, you're Luz's girlfriend? I'm glad you two get to be with each other again.

My name's Luisa. It's nice to meet you, Amity.

gOOD, YOU FOund your girlfriend.

[He's hoping Luz explained everything. Or most of everything.]

[Well that's a neat reversal - she's settling into more green settings, and has purple hair. And had once had green hair herself.]

I think we both are - though it's weird not to have, you know, peril dangling over us all the time.

[And Ghost perks up at their name.]

I'm so glad Ghost woke up...at first, they just stayed in their inert form on my staff. I was worried.

[She waves a bit.]

Luca. Pleased to meet you! And thanks, they're pretty special.

[She smiles.]

Thanks! It's nice to meet you, Luisa. Sounds like everyone knows her around here!

Yes, very good.

So no dinosaurs took a bite out of you, then?

nO, OF COURSE,NOT. THEY"RE NOTHING I HAVEN"T DEALT WITH BEFORE.

That's a good thing. Because you have to survive, since I've seen the future.

[She pauses after hitting send, then sighs, adding what she can in terms of mercy.]

There are some hard truths I think you need - and deserve - to know. And I can't trust you not to do something stupid around Luz if you don't.

[She doesn't much like Hunter - but she can trust the person he becomes. This Hunter...she feels she has to help him. In large part to protect Luz - but to safeguard the future. It hadn't turned out the way any of them might have wanted - but it could have gone even worse. And she wouldn't be Amity if she didn't insist on taking responsibility.]

Yeah, they are. And if you and Luz ever want to hang out with me and Alberto, we'd love to hang out with you guys!

Well, I have no idea who that is, but...any friend of Luz is a friend of mine.

[She pauses, thinking about Luz's absolute inability to not try to make an enemy into a friend.]

Probably.

[She can't see, but he rolls his eyes at that. Seen the future, sure.]

wHATEVER YOU HAVETO SAY, DOn"T BOTHER. tHE HUMAN HAS BEEN SAYING A LOAD OF NONSENSE AND i"m NOT INTERESTED IN HEARING MORE.

[She just glares at the reply back.]

Write her off as 'the human' again, go ahead. The only person who has shown you any kindness at all.

So, where you're at in the timeline - is Belos already falling apart and unable to maintain his human form? Like how often do parts of him get all gross and like moving rot?

[Dismiss that one as nonsense.]

I'm not surprised. She's really friendly and excited, and it's hard not to like her.

She's talked about you quite a bit too.

You guys were in danger a lot at home?

[She's not so sure about there not being a lot of peril here too, but... To be fair, up until the dinos it had seemed like most of it you had to go looking for.]

Hi, Ghost! I'm glad you're awake too!

[She addresses the cat before speaking to Amity again.]

Oh, right. Luz said she had a Palisman too. Do a lot of people in your world have them?

[She considers that a moment, scratching Ghost between the ears.]

Honestly? Not for most of my life. Then I met Luz and there was...suddenly a lot of peril. But I think it was always there, she just...woke me up, kinda.

As for Palismans - a number do, but not as many as in the past. And the way things are right now...who knows what's happening.

[Having your world consumed by a chaos god'll do that.]

[Aaaand cue the blushing, because she knows how Luz can get...excitable talking about people.]

Oh, gosh, well, she, uh, hopefully said good things. I guess.

Oh, right. Sorry, I guess you wouldn't since you just got here. Alberto's a friend of Luz's, too, and he's my best friend. He's great! I'm sure you'll like him.

[Well, points for enthusiasm, at least? She's a bit wary around all these humans still - as far as she knows, anyways - but at least the signs are pointing in the right direction?]

Well, we'll sure find out, won't we? Looking forward to it.

wHAT ARE, YOU TALKING ABOUT, PLENTY OF PEOPLEHAVE BEEN NICE TO ME HERE.

I DON"T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

[Belos' condition has been pretty bad for a while, but he wouldn't call him literally falling apart. Amity is probably just lying, and he damn well doesn't want to give her any indication of his uncle's weakness.]

You know what I mean. Don't talk about Luz like she's a thing.

[Because she will fight you.]

Yes, you do. You and Kikimora were the only people who COULD know. My question is if you knew the whole Day of Unity plan, or if he never bothered to tell you. Considering it would kill both of you, too, I'm guessing he left bits out.

[ Oh, boy. Have a fellow fourteen-year-old smirking the widest, smitten-est grin at the camera, seemingly sitting at his desk with a backdrop of... crap. Just a lot of endless crap. But the knowing fondness crinkling the corners of his eyes is still a warm enough first impression despite, uh, all... that. ]

Ahhh— So "the girlfriend" is finally here. Knew it'd happen sooner than later, heh. Ciao, Amity~ Alberto Scorfano. Piacere. Luz is a friend of mine, too. We've been waiting for you, ha~!

[ How can such a warm welcome be simultaneously so... foreboding? Yet at the same time, meeting new otherworldly friends of Luz's? Somehow it checks out. ]

[For just a split second, she assumes someone is going to try to sell her something. The smile, the junk. It's a bit like Eda in full sales mode. And that last bit, well, that's not ominous at all, oh no.]

Umm...ok, yes, that's...that's me. Amity. Umm. What's a Che-ow? Or a Pee-ah-cere?

[ The questions just widen Alberto's grin. He'd succeed in sales in the future, if it didn't entail standing still so much... Even just over the course of this online conversation, the camera angles will shift quite a bit eventually as Alberto inevitably fidgets and changes his position or wanders his home or whatever else he might get up to idly in the background. This will not be a still conversation, which is somehow clear from the start. ]

Hah. Hi. Hello. Nice to meet you. It's a pleasure. Et cetera, et cetera... Soy Italiano. Yo so Luz è Dominicana. Ma comprendo espagnolo. Y tu también, sì? O no?

[ Th-That's... not a language... Not technically. It's a pidgin totally made up by him and his — by some odd cosmic chance of befriending about a half dozen native Spanish-speakers here. The majority of his friend group here, really, and Luz is right tight in that inner circle. Luz has had to come to terms with Alberto's Spanish studies simply resulting in "Itañol," but expecting Amity to understand is, well— another matter. He hasn't heard that much about her, not enough to know that she really wouldn't know, being from the Boiling Isles... She may well have heard Luz speaking Spanish, but that's not entirely, uh— this. But he's endlessly fascinated by different cultures, regardless. Even Luca, who speaks exactly the same native language as Alberto does, no barrier whatsoever, also had to ask himself when they first met: The fuck is this kid saying? ]
