- VIDEO - backdated to a few days back to be safe -

[By now, life aboard the Moira has likely adjusted everyone to a wide variety of strange, unusual characters. Still, with the crew being more or less predominantly human, the space elf who appears on the camera may look more like a fictional character than a real member of your crew. (Like, seriously? Look at that hair of hers. No one actually has hair that nice, do they??) However, she's quite real, as a number of crew members who have already met her can attest. She speaks with confidence and a charming accent.]

Greetings, crew of the Moira. As some of you know, I was among the new arrivals to this ship several weeks ago. However, now that I've learned more about this ship [~~and she's reasonably confident that it is not secretly owned by the Galra~~] it is high time that I introduced myself to you all properly: I am Allura, princess of the planet Altea.

[She does her best to smile, albeit awkwardly, as she continues:] However, for the time being, there is little need for such formalities. I will be taking the far more modest role of this ship's Veterinary Assistant. And please be assured, I will show your pets the same attentive care and respect as I do my own.

[But her expression shifts into a more serious one.] ... that being said, I haven't entirely abandoned my previous duties, either. One doesn't merely take a vacation from their birthright, after all.

As such, I would be interested in organizing a meeting with representatives of different groups aboard the ship. Other than humans, many of the races -- and robots -- that I have seen aboard this ship are entirely new to me. And even humans are relatively new to me, rather than an old affiliation of the Alteans. As such, I would relish this opportunity to learn about your kinds, and perhaps to forge new alliances.

[She hesitates for a moment here, as if she's not sure how frank she wants to be about this next part. This seems to be well outside the Empire, but...]

Additionally, if there is anyone -- anyone -- who has previously encountered the Galra Empire -- if you have suffered at their hands, or if your home is under Emperor Zarkon's dominion -- please contact me at your earliest convenience.

Don't tell me you're an anarchist, too.

What? No way.

I'm a law abiding citizen, I'll have you know.

[This is debatable.]

Then what's the problem? Many people would be honored to meet a real princess, you know.

I'm not like many people.

Besides, pretty much every royal I've ever known was either a lunatic or enjoyed looking down their nose at everyone they crossed.

Then allow me to be the first who's neither! I would never look down my nose at others -- in fact, it is my goal to see all sentient life in this universe free from the tyrannical rule of the Galra Empire.

[And then, remembering that doesn't really mean much here--]

--and other such threats.

You told me I belonged scrubbing toilets.

It's hard to set a toilet on fire.

With an attitude like that, I'm really tempted to find a way.

If you want to prove me wrong, wouldn't it be better to show you can fix things without setting them on fire?

Aren't you the one who's supposed to be proving me wrong, Your Highness?

Caring about fire safety makes me compassionate! I'm looking out for the well-being of the ship!

Cool cool.

So, what's my name?

... look, I was distracted.

By...? The fire? The one I put out my exploding a fire extinguisher with my knee?

Look, I know I'm impressive, but you could at least remember my name in all of your compassion.

And you should remember that I was the one telling you what a fire extinguisher is!

[She just. Deep inhales in. Deep inhales out. Come on, Allura, be the diplomat.]

So, your name is...?

Hmmmm...

Nah, I don't think I feel like telling you.

That's a shame, Darin.

You wouldn't have known if you hadn't cheated.
