[ She may reply in text later but this at least starts off video because an introduction is of limited use if you wouldn't recognize the person making it if you passed them in the hall. Kate is leaned against a railing down at the dock, image carefully framed so she's visible from the shoulders up but off center, the better to show the bulk of a ship behind her. She smiles, polite but warm, a trace of genuine excitement in it she's not bothering to hide. ]

Hello! Some of us have met before but if not, I'm Kate Bishop and behind me you see the warship Atalanta. I'm now its captain and you're getting this message because you are its crew. Welcome.



I thought I'd introduce myself, then if you can each do the same we can all get a head start on getting to know each other and talk about what's next. I'm attaching the crew list in text and am going to stop filming because it's loud as hell down here, I just wanted to give you a glimpse. [ she pauses, and her smile ticks crooked and wider ] Of the ship. I look forward to meeting in person and working together soon.

[ The feed ends and a text comes next, as promised. ]

To those of you who don't know me, I've been with the ZDG for about five years now. I served most recently on the Durga during the post-crash mission, and before that on the Erebus, where I specialized in in-Matrix recon and combat. I've also done some weapons work and a little piloting, and when I'm not on mission I work as a trainer. If you have questions, feel free to ask.

1. Three months. Tremble at my experience, I know I do. In between the occasional spates of my legs refusing to work. But hey, eyebrows now!

2. I'm informed it's somewhat analogous to the 'average' Matrix's Medieval period. Make your jokes now before I get hold of them myself. The key features seem to be a tendency to never stop trying to kill one another, especially since no one can stop having nitpicky little arguments amongst themselves about magic. Most of it was on fire when I was unplugged!

3. ...Ironically, magic. Apparently this makes it easier for me to become even more anomalous. What a delightful prospect. My weakest I suppose are anything that clangs and whistles and stomps around all futuristic like, although how that isn't magic you tell me.

On second thought, please don't.

4. In a pinch I could probably keep us alive in barren wilderness. And I'm excellent at slop.

5. We don't have a medic, do we? Magic used to lend me a certain terrible baseline shittiness at healing, but in its absence I suppose someone had better put in for the job.

6. What about ones where none of us die awfully? I'm fond of that sort.

7. I suppose we could keep the wholesale slaughter to a minimum unless we really must do otherwise.
