[Angua is recognizable, but it is difficult to place her at first, because she is paler than usual, dressed all in black, complete with a cloak. She speaks with a thick accent.]

I do not know vhat is goink on, but I do not vish to speak like zis or to dress in zis manner. It is not under my control today, but it appears to be ze only thing zhat is affekted. I vill not let it prevent me from beink on duty today. I refuse to allow myself to be side-tracked by zis [there is a considerable pause] curse. [As she emphasizes the word, a flash of lightning strikes in the background, seemingly within her room, and thunder rolls.]

[OoC: She's from Uberwald, land of the stereotypical vampires, werewolves, dwarves, and other generally non-human creatures of the night. This is a fun curse. >3 Also this would have been up yesterday, but my router crapped out. Fixing it tonight, so expect late tags.]

What kind of place are you from?

[badhairlifetime.livejournal.com]

Übervald. I suspect zis means nothing to you, but drama is a part of ze land. It likes to emphasize danger, which is all over ze place.

It sounds like a place from a bad movie. No offence.

[badhairlifetime.livejournal.com]

Vhat is a movie?

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

[ Have a pause right back. ] It's-- moving pictures telling a story. With sound. I'll show you one sometime.

[badhairlifetime.livejournal.com]

Oh. Moving Pictures. I haf heard of zhose. Zhey are no longer making them, but I remember hearing a commotion about zhem.

I would appreciate seeing one, though, zhank you.

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

They used to make them in your world?

It's no trouble. There's quite a few movies in the library.

[badhairlifetime.livejournal.com]

Vunce. There vas a problem vith zhem. Vizards had to be involved.

Are zhey any good? I never vent to vun.

Re: video.

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

Wizards? In my world, movies fall under technology, so there's definitely no magic involved.

You never went to a library?

video.

[badhairlifetime.livejournal.com]

It vas not normal technology. Zhere vere things- from another dimension! [rolling thunder, she rolls her eyes]

I never vent to the movink pictures.

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

I suppose that would make it more complicated.

Do you have a TV, though? There was one in my apartment when I moved in.

video.

[badhairlifetime.livejournal.com]

Yes.

I'm not certain. Vas that the box vith the glass in front? [A pause.] Er, zhere vere two. Vun vas in the kitchen.

video.

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

Yeah. The one in the kitchen is probably a microwave, though. Or possibly an oven.

video.

[badhairlifetime.livejournal.com]

Microvave, yes.

video.

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

Do you know how to use it?

video.

[badhairlifetime.livejournal.com]

No. I don't even know vhat it is used for. Cooking, based on zhe fact that it's in zhe kitchen.

video.

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

It's quite useful for warming up food.

video.

[badhairlifetime.livejournal.com]

I see. I think I shall stick vith the oven.

video.

[heelsandlaw.livejournal.com]

That's probably wise.
