[ When the NV flickers on, the image presented is fuzzy at best. But with enough squinting, it becomes clear that the video is showing the interior of a standard apartment room for newcomers. After some rustling of movement from the left, the video is finally raised upward to display the face of a (young?) boy in slightly better quality - ]Fellow

Of the "Mu"--ahahaha...never heard of it.

They didn't tell you that you were in Canada, at least?

[video]

[soldiershin]

[ Barely managing to hear those mumbled words, because they're important. ] . . . Never heard of it? Truly?

And they mentioned the term, but I wasn't too certain of its significance. Is "Canada" the name of this planet?

[video]

[deceptive_lulz]

Sorry. Eheh--you look human...so uh is that some kind of cultural term?

But no. Heehee! [That short squeal of laughter may seem a bit different from her other laughs so far, as it was a genuine sound of amusement.] It's a country. The planet is Earth. I think? I guess I never really asked, eheheh...

[ Pauses for a moment. Then: ]

The Mu are also humans, but we also possess psionic abilities.

But more importantly, Earth? As in, the third planet of the Sol System?

[voice]

[mentis_reae]

By Terra you mean Earth, correct?

[video]

[soldiershin]

The third planet of the Sol System, yes.

[voice forever]

[mentis_reae]

As per the information we have been given, this is that selfsame planet indeed.

[video forever]

[soldiershin]

Information that we have been given? Have you ever been given information that may have made you think otherwise?

[video forever!]

[soldiershin]

Thank you. Terra and Earth - they're different names of the same planet.

[soldiershin]

I was told both eventually, but there was always a preferential use of 'Terra'.

But regardless of its name, it's a very beautiful planet.

[otaku_mk_ii]

Of the...what, sorry?

I don't know exactly what you mean by Terra-- [some alternate Earth, maybe?] --but we're on a Canadian island on Earth.

[video]

[soldiershin]

The Mu. [ Pause. ] It's. . . not a familiar term to you?

Thank you.

[video]

[otaku_mk_ii]

Afraid I've never heard it before. Should I have?

[video]

[soldiershin]

[ Slight pause. ]

No. It's alright if you haven't. After all, the distinction is minor when it comes down to it.

Cute~ but what the hell is "Terra"?

And what are the "Mu"? A type of special forces?

video

[soldiershin]

[ Cute...? ] Terra is the third planet of the Sol System. Otherwise known as 'Earth'.

And no, the Mu are people. People with psionic abilities.

Voice until further notice

[volginswaifu]

Oh. Then where else would we be?

[He's silent for a moment, staring dumbly at the screen--not that Shin can see.]

Uh...what?

video forever on this end!

[soldiershin]

Another planet. Anywhere other than Terra. But others have helped to suggest against that.

[ Also looks a bit confused. ] Psionic abilities. Psychics, I suppose.
