[As the video flips on, an almost worm's eye view of Ivy can be seen, lit by the faint light of dawn. As she tilted her head down, towards the camera, a hint of confusion can be read in her expression. It was odd indeed seeing a seemingly regular cellphone just lying there on a short tree stump, loosely tied upon it with vines, after all.

[She paused.] Whom am I speaking with?

[She was trying to get a feel for how long the people have been trapped around here.]

[Kind of, staring on his end, but anyway.]
We're in Canada, apparently... Wherever that is?

Canada? Seems I strayed quite a bit away from Gotham after all. You don't know Canada? You're from one of those other worlds then?

Oh! Well, ah, sort of- Maybe- Yes?

Seems like they come from all sorts of places then. [But why? Or rather, did it even matter why?]

There's... a lot of those creatures around, though they only appear during the night. But, uh-- are you alright?

Only at night? [She would have to be more careful then.]
I'm fine. But if you don't mind me asking...what are you, exactly? It's not every day that I speak with wolves.

[a blink, pull back. quick,] You can se--? [and a stop. well. she did seem... nature-y. after a bout of internal debating and wrestling off confusion:]
I'm... just one. So, you've - seen other wolves before? They didn't talk? [that was where the strangeness came in for Toboe.]

Really? [So wolves were normally supposed to talk? No, that was nonsense. This was most likely something from another planet. She seemed to be running into a lot of aliens today.] I wouldn't say that they're a common sight, but it's no means a surprise to see a wolf where I'm from. Though they're typically kept in a zoo.
But no, to answer your question, one would be called absurd to even suggest they could speak with wolves. I speak with plants on a day-to-day basis, but I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've spoken with a non-humanoid animal.

Is that why you're green? ...because of experimentation?

You could say that. Who's asking?

You must be new to the neighborhood.

[Because really, this was what? The sixth or so person that mentioned her skin color right away? Not that she really minded the comments, it was just a little annoying hearing so many quips about it, in a relatively short amount of time. She'd be sure to switch to audio the next time she needed to make a global message.]
That's right. I've at least gotten the most general information from others around here, however.

You've already gotten the grand explanation?

I have. It just seems that I need to get the details. An explanation of this so-called "Darkness" would be nice, but from my understanding it's a task easier said than done to get it out of the people who would even have that information.
