[ To say that it is taking some effort to adjust to the new reality Ororo has suddenly found herself in would be quite an understatement, but she still manages to look perfectly calm and composed as she offers the network a polite smile.
Would she like to maybe have herself a minor little breakdown? Sure. But she has absolutely no idea what sort of consequences that might have considering the quite substantial storm that is already going on outside the Ingress Complex, and there really just isn't time to fall apart right now. Maybe at some later point she can allow herself to fully absorb the shock of what has happened, but for now she has to keep moving forward. ]
Hello. My name is Ororo Munroe, and I'm a relatively new arrival here. Where I'm from I'm a teacher, mostly ancient history which isn't really going to be too useful around here unless some of you are dying to know about the Roman Empire, even if that was never a thing on your planet or in your timeline.
What I also am, is a mutant, which in my case means I have the ability to control the weather. I can survive in just about any climate, and I can get all sorts of information about what is going on in the environment around me because I am basically wired into it, which is a gross oversimplification but you didn't come here for a lecture.
[ Damn, but it feels pretty good to not hide what she can do. Screw anonymity, she's nowhere near Earth and its mutant registration act, and she is going to be completely and unashamedly herself. ]
I'm mentioning these things because I'm going to be needing a job pretty soon, so I figured I should put myself out there. Thank you for listening.
[ Her expression shifts into something a bit more amused, and at the same time sort of sad. ]
Oh, and if you have any good hangover remedies? Feel free to share them.
[ She's asking for a friend.
No, seriously, she is. ]

For one thing, most people don't come out and announce their abilities like that, but it makes sense when she's got one that's so pertinent to their situation here on Thisavrou. Controlling and understanding the weather is going to be a handy skill when they're at the whims of that storm.
Snake's transmitting from his house in Region 1, so he's in a fairly nondescript office space. There's the sound of a collar jingling behind him, though the animal it belongs to isn't in frame. ]
You're going to have plenty to do around here, if you can really predict and control the weather. Guessing you've already noticed that storm, right?
[ It's been acting up even more than usual lately, which can't be good. ]
And when it comes to a hangover? Greasy food always works for me.
[video]
[ That's putting it mildly, to be honest. She can feel that storm calling to her almost constantly. ]
Seems like I'll have to go on the hunt for some pizza.
[video]
[ That doesn't tell him much and Snake gets the feeling she's got a lot more to say about that storm if he can wring it out of her. ]
I'd go with a burger, personally. There's a diner I can recommend.
[ Miller isn't going to say no to more business. ]
[video]
[ There is a lot she could say about the storm, yes, but none of it would really convey what it's like to feel it the way she does. ]
As for the storm... I'm not sure how to describe to you what it's like from my perspective. It's a bit like trying to describe what seeing is like to someone who has never been able to.
[video]
Do you know how much of a threat it poses to us? Or why the weather's been changing lately?
[ Maybe it will be easier to ask her specific questions. ]
And the diner's called Pax Hamburgana. It's in Region 1.
[ He sends her a text message with the address. ]
