[ the video shows a brief shot of the sky, before blurring and showing the ground in the Garden Zone, and a pair of sneaker-clad feet. ]
[ muttered ] Oak and ash, this is worse than a damn cell phone. I can't even tell if it's on.
[ another blur, and there's more sky, and a bit of chin and straight brown hair ] Damn tetchy gadgety... I give up.

The turning the video on, not the yelp. The yelp that didn't happen. ]
...May? Where the hell are we? Where are you? There was this computer program thing that gave me a sort of... tour thing, but none of this makes any sense.

[ Awkward pause. Right. There are things that... yeah. Carefully innocent: ] What was the last thing that happened before you got here? [ No reason she's asking that question. Nope. None at all. ]

Um... the Luidaeg took me out to return Con-- [ she chokes on the word a little bit, takes a deep breath, and presses on ] Connor's seal skin to his family. I got home, had some coffee, and then I was here.
[ And the fact that she had coffee within the past hour is the only reason she's not just cussing everyone out. ]

[ She says this dryly, like she's used to it. She is with her, but part of her is just amused that May had to go and, well, pick another month as a name. Even if it makes sense. Damn Fetch. But she's happy to let people here believe they're twins - Toby has no doubt her mother would've gone with a name like May if she'd had a twin, after all. ]
There's a planet? Jesus, this place keeps getting weirder.
