❀ 001 - [video] {English}

[The first thing one checking this video feed will see on their screen is a closeup of a pair of green eyes. After a moment the camera zooms back out to show a woman. A woman who looks rather angry. She begins with a string of angry Hungarian, but after regaining enough of her composure to realize she's not likely to be understood when speaking her native language, she switches to English.]

Anyone care to explain what the Hell is going on?! I was in the middle of something important and the next thing I know I'm waking up in a hospital with doctors I've never seen before doing Lord knows what to me, and now I'm in what looks like the set for some awful B movie about the end of the world. Would anyone care to explain, or do I need to beat the answer out of someone?!

[Leaving aside any further sort of explanation she could do right now, Prussia simply frowns slightly. That accent is fast confirming suspicions.]

Hungarian?

Yes.

[She switches to her native language now.]

Do you speak it, too?

[Prussia switches languages as well, but to her own, comfortable dialect of German.]

Not if I don't have to, I don't.

[Hungary stubbornly continues speaking Hungarian. She's not going to switch to German, oh hell no.]

But you understand it. ....And you speak German.

[Her eyes narrow.]

Who are you?

[Prussia's not liking those narrowed eyes at all, so she's going to beat around the bush, suddenly so at odds with her conflicting emotions that her usual bravado isn't serving her very well.]

It's a funny story, actually... And a bit long. You don't really want to hear it.

[Hungary is unimpressed.]

A name will do.

Pr-

Anna.

You can call me Anna.

...Ah.

[Not helpful. She's still got her suspicions, though.]

In that case, call me Elizaveta.

Nrk. [That's a bit like an "okay" if you're Prussia and highly uncomfortable. But she's awesome! So she'll persevere. After a deep breath, she's got an almost uncertainly cocky grin in place.]

So, Liz, has anyone told you yet that people from different planets and times come here?

I never said you could call me Liz. And no, no one's mentioned that.

Is no one allowed to call you Liz, or just not me?

[Before Hungary can actually respond, though, Prussia's going on, trying to stay cool.] Not everyone's from Earth. And those that are are not necessarily from the same version of Earth, and certainly not the same years. The span seems to be a good few centuries. The furthest ahead is the twenty-first century, I believe.

No one that doesn't have permission.

......

Are you serious?

Of course I'm serious. Would anyone make up something like that, in a place like this?

It's hard to believe, or at least to understand.

Believe me, I know. But the more times you hear it, the quicker you adjust.

...But how? How can that even happen?

[SO CONFUSED.]

If anyone knows, they're not telling. Someone mentioned that space travel was a thing, but... [That was France and France is crazy.]

...

So I was kidnapped by scientists to a place that isn't even on earth, I've apparently been here before but I don't remember it, there are monsters here, some out of our own fiction, and people can come here from the past? I give up. Forget making sense out of this I'm just going to find the fastest way out of here.

You won't.

You're welcome to try, of course, but if some of the world's most persistent losers haven't worked their way out of this mess yet, I don't think one more will help.

Pathetic. I'm not going to shrug my shoulders and resign myself to staying in this place. I'm not such a coward. I have the willingness to fight.

And so do we all, you insulting brat. But I am telling you there is no way out right now. You can't just rush headfirst into every battle you don't know how to win.

Have you even tried to find these scientists? Or did you just surrender and go sit on your ass once you realized that they're in hiding? Sounds like that's what you did to me. So damn right I'm insulting you. That's just pathetic.

And so what are you going to do? Triple check the same places everyone else has? Risk death in a mortal body by venturing out into the woods even though there's no hope of finding anything there? Be my guest, of course.

The forest can't be that dangerous.

I hope you die painfully slow for your disbelief.
