[Cissie takes her time to get her bearings before she makes her first video post to the network. She appears on screen, looking like any other ordinary blonde haired, blue eyed American teenager. It's an image she intends to maintain, just like she does at home. She holds a hand up in a small wave, offering a tiny smile.]

Hello, Wonderland. Can I call you Wonderland? That's what I hear this place is, and can I just say that I'm kind of seriously regretting never reading those books before? I mean, I'm not the best student in the world, but I do like to know what I'm getting myself into. Not that reading would ever prepare me for getting kidnapped into a children's book, but I don't remember anything about kidnapping anyway, so clearly this is a case of the movie not following the book. ...Where this is the movie, if that wasn't obvious.

[Oh my god stop rambling, Cissie. She looks a litle abashed, blushing faintly. Great, her shot at introducing herself and she's sounding like a complete dork. She clears her throat and continues. Here comes the awkward part.]

Anyway, my name is Cissie King-Jones. I'm from Pennsylvania. You... may have seen me on a Wheaties box? If you're from where I'm from, that is. And if you are, I'd really like to know. And if you're not... it's nice to meet you?

If anyone wants to be kind enough to give me the Cliff Notes version of things, that would be awesome. I guess these kind of 'hey I'm new, what's up with this place' kind of questions probably get old after a while, so if you just want to introduce yourself, that's fine, too.

...Huh, good point. Although I think I prefer that. It'd be kind of weird to think of myself as a character in a story, or the things that happen to me as plot points.

I think you're right about that. I've done a little exploring, but not too much. I did see the ballroom--like an actual ballroom, I don't think I've ever seen a room that big. I don't really get how it fits.

Would it? But aren't you essentially the main character in the story of your life?

[Admittedly, being a character in a story is rather more literal for Loki, but everyone is the hero of their own story. Unless they're the villain, of course.]

I've lived in places with rooms that big, but I've never seen one that big trying to fit in a space that small. Best not to think too hard about it, I suspect. Just like you're best not thinking about how all these rooms fit on the floors they're assigned to.
