[ She'd spent her first couple of days lingering in the shadows. Not hiding or lurking, really, and maybe there's a chance you've seen her around, but she did her best to play observer -- to get a feel for the place and the people here. She goes into this skeptically, and by nature it's just hard not to, but it isn't long until she realizes Wonderland's residents are a lot like her.
It becomes a series of questions she needs to answer: who are they? Where are they from and what have they left behind? (And most importantly, because of what she's left behind, why are they here and how do they get back? She isn't satisfied with anything she is finding on that particular subject.)
For a moment, she is out of frame, cursing silently under her breath as she checks the device in her hand to make sure the video feed is on. Lois adjusts the device, holding it out so that her face is now in frame. ]
Okay. Okay. Here we go.
[ She coughs, clearing her throat, and runs her fingers quickly through her hair to tuck her hair behind her ears. Lois manages a pretty impressive "on air" presence, even if she's always been a little more interested in seeing her byline on the front page than she was in being on camera. ]
Hello, Wonderland. From the looks of things, you've all had a... rough week.
My name is Lois Lane and it looks like I will be joining you for the interim. I was hoping there would be a few of you willing to... share your experiences. Maybe help me fill in some blanks here?
We can communicate through... uh, this -- [ She shakes the device a bit, the video going a bit Blair Witch Project for a second. ] -- thing, but I am open to meeting in person for a cup of tea or something, if you'd prefer.

here he was, just telling teddy how much he missed his mom. and here she is, not the weird sparkly version wonderland gave, but his mom. if he looks hard enough, he could find her in mere moments, but there's some hesitation, a seed of doubt: maybe she's not really here, maybe wonderland's playing with him again, maybe she's his mom but a mom that doesn't remember him at all.
jon's voice is quiet, barely more than a whisper: )
Mom. . ?

It was okay when Clark Kent showed up. Having a superhero on her news team has its uses.
But Clark Kent isn't half as cool as Lois Lane. And she thought that before Tim had her read up on the real Lois Lane rather than the pop culture caricature.
She adjusts her sunglasses as she turns on the camera, giving Lois a serious nod.]
Welcome to Wonderland, Ms. Lane. I'm Georgia Mason, Editor-in-Chief of After the End Times and our Wonderland zine, the Shattered Mirror. [Never hurts to show your credentials.] And meeting for tea sounds like an excellent idea.

Also, it's not hard to spot someone like a reporter - not when you're a CEO and public figure and used to reporters asking questions. It's familiar. ]
Hello, Miss Lane. My name is Pepper Potts. I haven't been here all that long, myself, but I'd be happy to discuss what I've learned so far. A cup of tea, frankly, sounds great right now.

[Plus, the name Lois Lane sounds pretty familiar.]

[He's begun avoiding meeting people right off the bat in person- but the call of tea is a strong one. ]
There is a tea room here, too.

Uh, hey. I'm Mondo Oowada. What do ya wanna know 'bout this place? I haven't been here all that long, but I guess I know some stuff.
[ Not that many, but definitely more than someone who just arrived, and probably some useful pointers? He's not against sharing some with her since she seems harmless. Only 'seems', because trusting people here can be such a seesaw game for him. At one point he was feeling more open to trusting, and then one event fucked him over and he didn't know what to think anymore. At the very least, he doesn't want to dismiss a possible ally right off bat, so he'll entertain her and judge as they go. ]

Uh... do you know who I am?
[Cause the answer keeps being no and he doesn't like it.]
