[ the video feed comes to life with a young woman slumped against the counter of what looks like brooklyn's finest water bar. behind her is a blue sign that says 'the HYDRAtion station', but the lights on HYDRA seem to be broken because they're currently not lit up.

she looks vaguely unamused, ribbons of red energy swirling idly around her finger tips as they drum against the counter. ]

I'm taking suggestions for a new name for this... water bar. [ she gestures back to the sign, red energy following the motion like the tail of a comet, her thick vaguely eastern european accent not thick enough to disguise her disdain. ] English is not my native language, I'm afraid my puns will not do it justice.

Artist at Care-A-Lot Studios. They make a lot of greeting cards.

It's not so bad. I love to do art, so even if it's not what I expected to be drawing for it's nice to get to do what I love.

[ that sounds like a good job and it's handy that it suits her. ]

That sounds like it will keep you busy.

[angele]

I hope so.

You looking for a distraction too?

I'm used to being stuck in one place. That doesn't mean I like it.

[angele]

That's sort of the feeling I've been getting from the others lately.

I don't really like it, either, but... it could be worse. I guess.

[whatchoice]

It could.
