Okay. Okay, Stephanie Brown, you've got this one. You're a fine, sane individual, college student extraordinaire, and-

[ an odd noise comes through the Vine, as if it's protesting the way Steph's got her hands all over it ] Whoa. And here you are, talking into a plant, because a cat with a scroll lead you to it. Riiight. You know what else? None

Elcomeway to ethay Ardengay, oungyay adylay.

Hello, O Mysterious Kindred Spirit.

Eriouslysay: hatway?

[ Voice ]

[hentanuki]

Welcome to...the Garden, I guess. Kidnapped by some dopey omnipotent queen without anythin' better t'do.

[ Voice ]

[gravityfists]

Oh. Oookay. I'll file that information away, and deal with it later. Y'know, when I can actually scream about it.

So, do you wanna reassure me, and tell me your voice is just coming through this plantwhatsit? And you're not part of the vine. 'cause I'm not sure I wanna believe that.

VOICE

[thevenusian]

I don't even want to think about my homework, or all the exams I'm missing, or… [Minako sighs.] Any or all of that.

Not that I really want to take tests, but between that and being stuck here, I'll take the tests!

VOICE

[gravityfists]

Hey.

It's great that you sound so upbeat and all, but I've gotta ask. You do realise that I've just turned up out of nowhere, don't you? Don't tell me this is a regular occurrence.

VOICE

[thevenusian]

I haven't met anyone who didn't turn up out of nowhere, here. That's how I got here. So, sorry, it's ... yeah, pretty normal.

I can't believe I just said that.

VOICE

[gravityfists]

God. That's it. I give up.

My life is so ridiculous that it stopped being funny about a decade before I was born. You hear that, universe? I've given up!

[miss_enma_ai]

You have a secret identity?

[ Voice ]

[gravityfists]

Yeah. I'm the Blue Beetle, but only over the weekend.

[ Voice ]

[miss_enma_ai]

Who?

[ Voice ]

[gravityfists]

Thaaat was a joke. I don't know if you noticed, but I'm a little oestrogen-heavy for Blue Beetle.

[voice] Would you mind if I have Yukari change to video?

[border_phantasm]

Oh believe me, our beloved captor doesn't care who we are.

[voice] aye, that's fine!

[gravityfists]

Super.

And does this Evil Overlord have a name? Or known weak spot?

[voice--->video]

[border_phantasm]

Not an evil overlord. Just a less-than-sane woman who calls herself the Queen of Hearts.

[Suddenly if the mirror comes out you might see a woman in a odd outfit holding an umbrella]

Permit me to introduce myself. I am Yukari Yakumo. Pleased to meet you, Miss Brown.

[voice]

[gravityfists]

Whoa, okay. That's new!

Mirror mirror on the plant, who's the somethingest of the... something that rhymes with plant?

[thetrueblow]

Is talking a nervous habit of yours?

[gravityfists]

Nope. My brain-to-mouth filter is just on the fritz.

[thetrueblow]

Looks like it.

So everybody else already gave you the big welcome.

[gravityfists]

Yup. They're all suspiciously calm about it, too.

Lemme tell you something: I don't like it. Nuh uh. Not one bit.
