≛ （ ＶＩＤＥＯ ）
[ on what must be one of the first days of relative peace, a feed opens to present a newcomer. Leia is dressed as she normally would, all in white, collar high. The clothes she came with have been tossed away but there is nothing she can do about the ugly bruise on her neck, circular, red. it would turn to purple in a few days and is a dead giveaway for a collar of metal that bit into her skin until very recently.
her palms tell a story too, skin peeling at places, red and irritated from when she pulled on metal. However, it'd be difficult to pass her for the slave girl whose part she'd been forced to play. There's an air of authority to her even now.
Oh, and there's the blaster she tucks just beneath her belt, a touch of black on an otherwise white palette. ]
Well, this is rich.
[ biting with just a hint of sass but then, she seems to realize her message is finally being sent. ]
I see no practical reason for so much technology when we all live in the same cell.
[ this is what she calls this, a cell. A prison is a prison, vast as it may be. ]
But if you hear my message, know I mean you no harm. I understand I've come in a time of great peril [ somehow, she senses it in the very air around the halls ]. My own world is in great peril as well, it is urgent that they'll receive any help available if they're to see our mission done.
[ a beat. ]
We share the same predicament, I ask that we share information as well. If there is anything worth knowing about this system, I'd hear it and if any assistance is needed, I will supply.

Uh...good! Good, that's...that's good. Yeah, we're um. We're all in this together, so...no sense in being jerks to each other, right?
[Wirt is astounded by how often he completely loses the ability to be eloquent around people. Sheesh, can't he just talk like a normal person for once in his life?!]
Video
[ by making an ass out of themselves. no one had risen to the job yet which is encouraging. At the same time, the lack of sarcasm and fond annoyance makes her miss Han. really, all this time on her own and now look at her, missing people.
Absolutely unacceptable. ]
Your name?
Video
Oh, I'm...Wirt. What's yours?
Video
I'm Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan.
[ she smiles, tries for a gentle approach. ]
Hello, Wirt. How long have you been here in Wonderland?
Video 1/2
Wirt's eyes become saucers, and he stares for longer than is probably appropriate before he can make his voice work. What does he even say though? He can't just go YOU'RE PRINCESS LEIA because like, obviously she's Princess Leia, she knows that already since she just said it. And because it's her name.]
Video 2/2
U-Um. About, oh...two-ish years? I'm not exactly sure.
Video
Two years?
[ she frowns, seems to understand something - ]
I won't say I can succeed in sending us home. I trust all of you have tried your best but be sure I will be there by your side and help you in these efforts.
Video
Thank you. Thanks. I...I-I really appreciate it. There hasn't really been a lot we could do or anything so far, but. Thanks.
[A pause, and then finally he just can't take it anymore.]
.........Are you seriously Princess Leia? Like, is this a real thing that's happening to me right now?
Video
[ she tilts her head, curiosity braving through many levels of sarcasm. ]
Why? have you heard of my planet? of my family?
[ the name bail organa still means something to so many, she's well aware of it. but if she's right, then maybe he just might know her world. not many seem to. ]
Video
[You are a fictional character from a very popular movie franchise and Wirt has absolutely no idea what to do with that information.]
You're uh. From...the past! R-relative to me anyway. You're from, um. Long...long ago, in um. A galaxy far...far away.
[Smooth.]
So. You're more like, uh. A...legend. I guess. Sort of.
