[Video]
[The video feed opens up on a less-than-thrilled-looking 202. She's obviously just woken up, judging by her partial state of undress and the way that her hair--not especially tidy at the best of times--is one big hip-length tangled mess. Anybody who recognizes her home can see that she's there, and even those who don't can see that she must not be real pleased; Most of the visible furniture is upside-down or in pieces. Quite the little temper tantrum, overall. The girl in question turns a calmly venemous glare on her watch's camera, her normally green eyes flashing bright and angry gold.]
"Watcher." "Interloper." I have never complained about being here. I have never questioned your motives, and I've never tried to leave. I don't make a mess, and I don't cause trouble. To the contrary, I've worked hard to keep this place--and its denizens--as safe as it's within my abilities to do.
[Here her illusion of calm shatters, and when she continues speaking she flashes a pair of long, pointed canines with every snarled word.]
But if you ever, ever decide to cage me up in some godforsaken subterranean maze again, trapped away from my sister with no way out? That all stops. I don't mind being here as an exhibition, but rest assured I am nobody's pet. I am no domesticated creature to be treated like a toy, and I will prove it if you make me.
[She moves to close the watch, then pauses halfway as she apparently thinks better of it. There's a moment's pause as she stops, eyes closed, to take a deep breath and run both hands into her hair. When she opens her eyes again they're back to their usual green, and she turns a significantly calmer expression on the device.]
...I'm sorry you all had to see that. It being said, however... How is everyone else? I know I wasn't alone down there, even if I couldn't find the rest of you-- Did you all get out okay? Is everybody accounted for? The last thing we need at this point is for more of us to go missing, so let's try and keep each other updated, all right?
...All right.
[Satisfied now that she's done, 202 reaches over and delicately clicks her device closed.]
