[the video starts and you see Kanaya, a girl with gray skin, yellow eyes, and candy corn colored horns, don't be alarmed, that's what she's supposed to look like]

[her voice is clear]

Greetings. I appreciate that you have gone out of your way to rescue myself and, as I've seen, Tavros. Although I must point out that your efforts come a tad late, our world was destroyed quite some time ago, the fault being none but our own. I must question why only the two of us have been chosen, there are ten more, many of higher blood and higher importance than the two of us.

I must also point out that my collar seems to be the wrong color. My blood is jade green, not the yellow you have provided to me, I would like the mistake to be fixed at your convenience.

[Have a very befuddled Shoutarou staring at the screen.]

What in the world are you?

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

[Well that was rude of you]

I am a troll, I take it that you're a human.

[She can see both Kanaya's post and Tavros', but she doesn't believe it.]

[Romeo isn't actually sat at a computer, he is walking past and jumps at the voice, he hits a random button to see what it does] Are you a magic thing inside there? You are really really small to fit in that box! [He peers at the screen again]

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

It's a video. I am not inside the box, which is otherwise known as a computer. I am at another one of those boxes broadcasting my image onto the one you are at. I was not aware that this was foreign to some humans.

[thisclinchesit]

[Well, he's not the nicest guy when faced with something unfamiliar.]

A troll? Huh...

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

Yes, is there something wrong with your hearing?

[thisclinchesit]

No, just...not what one expects when one hears the word 'troll'.

[Epitome of good manners, Shou is not.]

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

And when a human hears the word troll, what is it that they think of?

[spiritsup.livejournal.com]

"Video?" Romeo blinked at the string of words, many of which he had never heard of before. Video, Computer, broadcasting. "So to you does it look like I'm the one inside the box?" He asked pressing his face closer to the screen.

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

Yes, to me you are the one residing in the box. You do not need to be so close to the screen to be seen.

[thisclinchesit]

I think of those big kinda ogre-y things like one reads about in fantasy stories. Usually smashes stuff with clubs and such.

[spiritsup.livejournal.com]

Oh [He moves away from the screen a little] Is this better? [An excited look] So are you here in the Tower? [He takes a closer look] Are you sure your not magic [Because, horns!]

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

No that is not what we are like. While we do have fantasy stories, I enjoy the ones featuring rainbow drinkers, and Gamzee has clubs that he can smash various items with if he so pleases, you humans are very off in what you consider to be a troll.

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

[a nod] Yes, that is much better, and yes I do now reside in this tower. Unfortunately no I am not magic, what led to that inquiry?

[spiritsup.livejournal.com]

[A tilt of the head] Where abouts are you? What room are you living in?

[He points at the screen] You have horns, I thought magical people had horns and I already met a witch and an elf!

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

I reside in room 1-01, or at least that is where they have placed me for the moment. I do not know if that is a temporary place and if I will be relocated at a later time.

[she touches her horn] All trolls have horns of various shapes and sizes, and while some trolls have special abilities they are not linked to the fact they have horns.

[spiritsup.livejournal.com]

I live in 1-02 miss! [A smile, that fades into a look of horror when she announces she's a troll] But! You can't be a troll! Trolls live under bridges not in boxes! Or Towers! [Remembering she wasn't actually in the box, he's not as scared as he could be because she's not actually in the room with him]

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

Then we will be next door to each other. [she gives him an odd look] The trolls from Earth do not accurately portray what the trolls from Alternia are truly like.

[pineandmaple.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's what trolls look like...[blinkblink]

Oh I'm sorry, that must have sounded horribly rude! I just meant, I spoke to Tavros before but I didn't know what your race looks like.

...Jade green blood?

[craaaaaaaazy8s.livejournal.com]

[spiritsup.livejournal.com]

Oh... [Hopeful look] So does that mean you don't eat children either? [He hopes not, theres a few children in the tower and they were nice, Romeo didn't want anyone to be eaten!]

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

[grimauxilatrix.livejournal.com]

[SIGH what are they teaching people down on Earth] No, eating children is not an activity we partake in.
