[The screen jostles as Zev sets 790 up in front of her. The tip of her nose is red, and her eyes are puffy, though it's difficult to tell in 790's vague little recording. She's trying not to cry, so she smiles instead. It's a smile that takes work.]

They're not going to let me leave. They told me I belong here. But I'm going to make sure you and the Marquis leave, alright?

[She swallows, takes a shaky breath, and continues.]

I want you to tell Arthas that, even though he's dead, I want him to try to live. Kai never tried. He couldn't want to. But Arthas still has a chance to try to live despite being dead. Please. Please ask him to do that for me.

Tell Ivy that she opened my eyes to what a world could be, so she should try to show that to everyone. She shouldn't give up because she's there. There are people from everywhere on that boat- people that wanted to save a part of their worlds for no other reason than they realized they could. Ask her not to give up. I still want that safe place for lost things in the universe. [That's how she always saw that seed bank. That's what she wanted out of it.]

Tell Megamind and Cassandra and Ben they are much better than the people that made them. They should be happy they are out of their box, even if I am back in mine. Tell the people that helped me there... thank you. Thank you for making me feel like I was worth something. I wish I could always hold onto it. Maybe one day I will get it back.

[She stops for a moment, because it hurts to say all of these things.]

Rassilon, tell your husband that one day you will be a very good father. You were the one I wish I had. Please make good decisions, and go home to him one day.

I have to go. But I am going to show you the way out. Okay? I promise. [And she switches off the feed.]

[It's taken her forever to get around to saying this. But now it's a little easier for her.] I never had a father that cared about me. I enjoyed that. She wished that he would have trusted her more, but she loved him too.

[And that is very awkward for her to say.]

[The normally immaculately kept Miss Zev Bellringer has just recovered from the harrowing storm, and noticed some of the videos. There are pirates on the island, but there's also something more important, something significant!]

They're real, did you see them? [She wishes that her mother could have been here. Even with the situation, she still wishes.] Father! They're real, just as I told you. I was right all along.

[Wrecked? Yes. In danger? Potentially. Mermaids? She is delighted. Hopefully she'll manage to survive until a rescue ship comes, because her sense of self-preservation is sometimes lacking.]


OOC: Zev Bellringer is the daughter of Ray Bellringer (Rassilon), a politician being transported aboard the ship. She's a bit of a flirt and still believes in myths and legends like fairies and river spirits. And she's probably going to get herself (and probably other people) in trouble, and at the first opportunity she's going to tear off most of her skirt off so she can run around the tropical island unhindered. Good luck with that, people that try to be responsible for her.

[Floods sometimes do bother her, but rarely if she's not the one affected. This one did. She's quietly sitting cross-legged, facing her propped up communicator with 790 sitting in the crook of her legs.]

I prefer you as you are. Even the ones I become angry at. I do not know if that makes me the right type of person for this, sometimes. [Because she doesn't mind people the way they are, and having new mindsets and agendas written into people is very intimidating.]

[Private to Rassilon | Video]

I saw you during the flood. [But she hadn't known what to say to those pictures. Family is such a foreign concept to her.] Where might I speak to you?

[The problem is when you have a lazy inmate and a similarly lazy warden, but both are essentially exhibitionists in their own way, they have to get creative about how they're going to earn money. The answer is simple; she took Rassilon's gauntlet after his difficulties with Davros but not his psychic abilities. She doesn't want him to be alone in his own head again. But she is working on him using his abilities responsibly, and hopefully showing that they can be regarded with awe.

So they have a sign up on a street corner: be hypnotized for four gold. And she's been willing to let Rassilon hypnotize her, too, to show people how it works. So far, business has been good and hopefully for a place with magic, this one is making a good impression on Rassilon and isn't nearly as despicable as the Dark Times he once knew.]


OOC: You can tag either Rassilon or Zev here. Conversation between Rassilon and Zev happens first, here.

[Public | Video]

[Zev is looking eagerly at the camera, her hands folded on 790s head and her chin resting on them. She has her communicator sitting propped up on her "bed", and she's laying flat on her stomach facing it (it looks somewhere between a canopy bed and a whale's ribcage, with the silk sheets and organic structure).]

Ivy told everyone a story about scientists that helped save a seed bank. I like this idea, and I've been trying to find seeds from natural worlds in the CES. I've been finding worlds that were exclusive to the Divine Order, ones that were ruined by his Shadow but I can see them in their original setting.

Other people are here from damaged worlds, too. And if you can take me into the CES, give me access to your world in its natural state, I would like to collect more seeds from them. If I can graduate Rassilon, there will be a safe place for all of these. [Plus, it gives her an excuse to explore, and the carnivore in her is feeling a little stir crazy with the narrow halls.]

[Public | Audio]

I don't know what happened. I don't know if I was just asleep or- [or if the Cluster Lizard did something. Which she hopes it didn't. She doesn't want to find out she ate people again.

Well, ate them and didn't want to.] -if anyone saw a large rolling predator, please let me know.

[Private to Friends | Audio]

I don't know how long it's been. Tell me you're still here. [And safe, too. But still here is most important.]

[There's a tall, man with unusual woven clothes, pale skin, a facial tattoo, and a strange hairstyle that comes on to the screen. He's looking at 790 with all the intensity of Hamlet staring at Yorick.] I am Kai, last of the Brunnen G. And it is my understanding that I am here on the behalf of Zev, of B3k.

[He puts 790 down, looking at him blandly, any emotion that should be there there terribly stunted.]

Were there questions?


OOC: Responses will be coming from divine_assassin.

[Private to Friends & Rassilon | Audio]

I was a monster... It's hard to explain, but [she sounds like she's in pain.] I was eating people. They were right to kill me, but now I'm hurting again. [She knows the Cluster Lizard is ironically closer to the surface when she's hurting like this, too.]

I want to go back to my room now. If someone can take me from the infirmary. It just hurts, and I'm tired.

[Private to Riddick and Dylan | Audio]

I'm sorry. That wasn't me, I'm not like that.

[Except she knows she can be. If she let herself, it could happen.]

[Private to Narvin | Audio]

When I asked what warden should take my place if I'm unable to be there for him, Rassilon mentioned you. [She has to stop for a bit, and catch her breath.] I think it's only because you're a Time Lord, but I'm death tolling now and I need help.

I've been trying to get him to meet other races, and other people he might get along with. I want to show him they count for something, too. He says he likes people that aren't judgmental and are scientifically minded. I think "not judgmental" is the most important part because he likes me. [She knows she's no scientist.]

Please help if you have the time. You don't have to if it hurts too much.


OOC: Still slow as Christmas because this is a super busy week, but accounting for Zev's death toll!

[Private to Mal | Video]

[She's tiny, and cuddled up in a warm waschloth as if it's a blanket. She legitimately has a cap off of something to drink out of, and she's giving her journal a perplexed little look.]

I remember how upset I was when my inmate went away. When we're bigger, do you want to do something to forget about it?

[Private to Rassilon | Video]

Are you my size? Or still big? [And she's still drinking out of that cap]

[The first day of the Flood, Zev was enjoying herself thoroughly. All the food was huge. It seemed like the cafeteria was a Wonderland, and the world was so big she'd never want for anything. But then a place that was just meant to sit felt like a lonely island on an ocean, floors and floors and floors of corridors was an exhausting, daunting journey that seemed to require groups of adventurers.

She liked to decide where to go on her own, but then things became hard, and she became dirty from digging into all the food, and she just wanted a normal sized bath and a long rest to make up for the fact that even the shortest trip had become tiring.

Though she covered, and continues to cover a lot of ground nonetheless. She isn't good at keeping still, and if anyone finds her that's what she has been doing.]

[Private to the Admiral | Audio]

Return Rassilon's abilities. He should be allowed to use them.

During the flood, I noticed people singing songs. They weren't warrior songs, but there were different ones about the day. I know you're probably not in the mood to sing them again, but will you tell me what some of them are about?

I like music.

[But she has to improvise and go off memory.]

[Zev is wearing a Wilma Deering style jumpsuit with her usual broken restraints, because she's decided that the ship is cold during the winter buut still prefers her tight clothes. The sweater, very Brunen G though it was, didn't cover her legs.]

Everyone seems so friendly now. Why? [Because the only holidays she knows? Horrible ones.]

[Private to Rassilon | Video]*

[This is the biggest file she's ever seen. This is the biggest book she's ever seen. She's not going to be able to make it through this, even as an audio history, and she knows it.]

Hi. I guess I'm your new warden.

Do you want to talk in your room? [She doesn't want to make him have to go back down to Omega's former floor to hers.]

[Warden Filter | Video]

What can anyone here tell me about Rassilon?





*OOC: Dated to after the pairing announcement.

[Public | Video]

[She really, really wants to get through. Even if it's to say a more reasonable good-bye, or give her friends a rare bit of hope.]

Stan? Kai? [Questioning. Thankfully her version of 790 is offscreen but she's in a room like the area where she slept on the Lexx.] Lexx? Are you there? This is Zev of B3K.

[She's a little worried about someone from the Divine Order hearing her but ffft. It's already fallen.]

Jefferson was one of the parties responsible, if not the primary party, for our crash. I don't know what happened yet. I'm still getting the story.

I'm not taking him to Zero for a few reasons. Two of them are personal, but I'd tell you if you really needed to know. One of them is that he hurt a lot of people, and I don't want him somewhere quiet where he can just hide and turn off his communicator . He has to deal with the people he's made angry and that he's hurt, and they should be able to say why they're angry. Otherwise I'm just hiding him away for a week until people forget.

[This is hard to recognize as Zev's voice. The last time she used it was quite a while ago. She sounds like she's nigh on ready to eat someone. And it's not Wonderland doing this, she's just pissed and her aggressive lizard brain doesn't like being made a fool of.]

I'm going to find my inmate.

If a single person is wounded while we're here, I want to know about it. [And a little bit of a growl that doesn't even sound mammalian. Zev's on the hunt.]



OOC: She'll go hunting for Jefferson and find him whenever she needs to. Just getting the post up and out of the way.

[Public | Video]

[She's back to normal now, and she looks happy. No trauma from revisiting her childhood because she is very sternly ignoring what placed her in that situation. She's leaning forward with her arms folded on 790's head, not the least bit bashful.]

Just to inform you, I was eventually sold to the parents of a 17 year old that wanted to buy a birthday wife for their son. He took one look at me and called me a cow. And I knocked him out, knowing precisely what would happen to me if he did. And I do not regret it, nor will I ever, and that was before I was part Cluster Lizard. [She probably would have given him a chance if he'd been gracious, but instead she chose to bust out his teeth.] Thank you all for having been very kind to me. That was more fun than I ever had as a child.
