[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.

There are a lot of different kinds of technology aboard, some of it sentient and some not. You may have to take it on a case-by-case basis.

Ah... right. I forgot this isn't the first time for you.

Is there anything I can do? To make this easier?

Hello!

It is a pleasure to meet you, my lady! I am Reinhardt Wilhelm. Formerly of Overwatch.

You do have a way of that.

[She's possibly the strongest out of them all, isn't she?]

Sort of. A guy named Lucio -- if you ever meet him. He's been really helpful. And... one of the robots, actually.

Ahh, that is because it no longer exists.

[That big, broad grin turns to something sad.]

It was once meant to uphold justice, protect the innocent... but no longer.

[A fuzzy, former prince of monsters pops up on the screen.]

Howdy, princess Allura! It's nice to meet you, I'm Asriel!

...

Um, what's a Galra Empire?

[Pidge is turning on the video feed to reply, showing herself sporting a really rough looking set of headphones tapping away on a laptop as she speaks.]

It seems like we're pretty far out of reach of the Galra here, assuming we're even in the same universe as our own. We may be the only ones who know anything about it.
grandpaladin: (hello little friend)

[Look at him perk right up right there.]

Paladins, you say? You have them, in your world?

[But then, more seriously:] It fell apart. Betrayed from the inside. A bad story, and a long one.

[Well, the description does get Asriel to cover his mouth and snicker with a little "pfft!" noise.]

Heheh! Well, I don't think I've heard of anyone by that name around here. Which they don't sound very nice, so that's probably a good thing.

... But there's been lots of other "doo-doo heads" on some of the other places we've visited.
shiro2hero: (all right i'll stop and ask directions)

You can't miss him, I don't think. He said he runs the radio here.

The robot's name is Ratchet -- he's their medical officer, and offered to look at... mechanical problems.

[She can probably guess how he met him, from just that.]

[She nods a little, slowly, reaching up to adjust her glasses.] Yeah, I guess...

I'm not sure. I probably won't be able to really find out until the Ingress is completely up and running again. But on the bright side, that's already being worked on.
