[She remembers last night as clear as a bell. She talked to Stacy for an hour, told Matthew "maybe" when he called to ask her out for Friday night, did her homework to get Mom off her back, traded put-downs with Daria, then did her hour-long pre-bed beauty routine before she went to sleep. The next morning, she should have woken up at her usual six-thirty AM for her morning beauty routine.

Only it doesn't feel like six-thirty. It's hard to tell out here, which is most definitely not her bedroom. Or her house. Or even Lawndale. And this skimpy white gown is not her cute pajama pants and yellow tank top!]


Is this a joke? It's not very funny. Where are my clothes?! And my makeup, and my hairbrush?

...wait. Are those...wings?! No, it can't be! They're like angel wings...

...oh no. Oh, no, is this...Heaven?! Did I die?! No no no no no, this can't be happening, I can't be dead, Sandi will never forgive me if I miss the Fashion Club's Lipsticks and Lip Balms discussion forum! Oh, everyone's going to be devastated...maybe even Daria will miss me. She'll be even more of a misery chick than before!

Ohhh, someone please tell me this isn't happening!

...oh! A journal...and it's empty. Um, okay. Dear diary, today I woke up dead! This is the worst day of my life!

Oh! Okay, this is going to sound like, super weird, but like, bear with me, okay?

[It's been a while since she's given the standard New Feather speech, so she's going to try her best.]

Okay, so. See, you're like, kind of in another world. And in this world you're in this little um, enclosure called Luceti. There's like, a lot of other people here, too! So at least, like, you're not alone, right?

And the journal is kind of like...a cellphone. Like, when you write in it or talk into it and stuff, other people can see what you write or hear you or whatever. Actually, I guess it's more like....part cellphone, part radio or something? Oh! There's even like a camera, so you can see who you're talking to!

[As if to punctuate this, she kind gives a little wave to the camera.]

[Pilouette is starting to think she should have broken up that info into smaller chunks. The "in another world" thing is probably a lot to take in by itself.]

I like, totally get what you mean. I've been here for a while and it still seems pretty weird sometimes.

Oh, totally! I mean, a lot of the time it's just like, normal stuff! Or as normal as it can get around here. School, cooking, browsing the clothing store...that kinda stuff.

...It gets a little weirder sometimes, too, but that doesn't usually last all that long when it happens. Usually.

Well...kinda. Like I said, when I say "normal" I mean as normal as this place gets. Either way it's still kind of weird. And...Well, stuff happens sometimes. ...Experiments. And those can be like, totally bizarre. But like I said, they usually don't last long!

And it'll probably be different from back home. Depending on where you're from, the level of tech might be different. No computers, no internet, no television...It might take some getting used to.

Ugh, like, tell me about it! I missed an entire season of my favorite gossip show!

[She does kind of cringe a little at the phone thing. No one likes being the bearer of bad news, after all.]

And...um...W-Well you know how I said the journal is kind of like a cellphone?

Yeah, like...we kiiiind of don't have regular phone service here. But like I said, we have the journals! So we can talk to people that way if we need to! That kinda stuff really isn't so bad! You know?

[She's really doing her best to make a bad situation sound...not so awful. She knows that it can be tough for a New Feather.]

Yeah! Besides, a cell phone wouldn't do much good here, anyway. Trust me, I know. I got lucky and found mine the item shop a while back...as far as I can tell, it can't even make calls! I don't think there's even a network for that here.
