[For those of you still wondering what those fancy hand mirrors were for, well, it looks like there's no need to wonder that much longer.]

A mirror will let me see... Mon, what's that even supposed to mean?

[The comment itself is half muttered, not quite fully voiced aloud, but still readily audible as the visuals change, swerving from half tilted to the sky before it is aimed in the direction of the face of a black teenager, who upon getting a look at herself immediately tries to carefully comb a few leaves and twigs out of the curling mass of hair held off her shoulders in a ponytail, before giving up.]

I guess it'll come in use later.

Just pick a direction and start walking. Every time somebody gets too far away they just poof right back to the rest of us.

[fiteclub]

[Well, that's both good and bad news.]

I guess that solves the problem of getting lost.

I'm Anita. You?

[followingdawn]

Yeah. Also means we can't dump anyone who turns out to be more trouble than they're worth.

[ So young, yet so cynical. ]

I'm Sothe.

[fiteclub]

[Well, she was kind of thinking it too, but not enough to actually voice it. OH WELL.] Hopefully there won't be too many people like that.

Nice to meet you, assuming I ever get out of this forest.

[An obvious joke, considering.]

[followingdawn]

Well, I'd like to think everyone who's likely to try and kill each other got that out of their system on the first day.

[fiteclub]

[Yikes.]

Anyone get seriously hurt? What happened?

[followingdawn]

It got broken up before it got bad. Just...culture shock?

Like, really bad culture shock.

[fiteclub]

Combined with everyone being surprised?

It sounds like everyone was lucky.

[followingdawn]

Yeah. Nobody's dead or maimed, so I guess we're doing okay.

[fiteclub]

Better than the alternative. Not that we really get a say, but it's better than a suicide mission right from the start.
