[A young woman's voice echoes over the Vine first. IN fact, it sounds almost exactly like that of someone else the residents have heard from recently. A shrill note of panic has managed to worm its way into her voice, though.]

What is this place? Where-? How-?

[After a moment the mirror comes on. It's Asuka! Or her doppelganger. The only real difference is that she has a swathe of bandages covering her right arm and another tied tightly around her head, covering her left eye. The one that is visible is bright, blue, alert and almost panicked. Her uncovered hand reaches out toward the mirror.]

This isn't right! I was just-

I was-

[Her eye widens slightly.]

Oh my God. I-

[She chokes, retches and she sinks out of sight for a moment, hand covering her mouth. The rather unpleasant sound of someone losing their lunch is all that can be heard for a few moments, gasps for air and then more retching.]

This place is most certainly sickening, but I think vomiting at the sight is a bit much.

Shut up!

[burns-things.livejournal.com]

Try to calm down. You'll only make yourself more sick.

It wasn't this place that made me sick, alright?

_{[She shouldn't have to defend herself, but Asuka feels the need anyway.]}

Of course it wasn't. What I had said was a joke. Regardless of whatever it is making you sick, getting angry will just make you feel worse.

Just leave me alone. I don't need your advice!

[burns-things.livejournal.com]

...I see, so it's not that you're sick or afraid, this temper is simply normal for you. I didn't mean to offend you. Everyone here needs help when they first arrive.

[redheadcarrier.livejournal.com]

I don't.

You can keep up the tough, stubborn act all you want, but it'll just make everything that much more frustrating and annoying.
