[When the video turns on, the first thing you're going to get is an extreme close-up of Enna's eye, before she scoots back.]
Cawww.... This is weird. So I just talk into this and everyone else hears it? Hello, everyone else! I'm Enna, captain of the Argo Minor, and I just got here, and I have some important questions!
[She waves, cheerfully, then stops, and looks around, like she's not sure where she's supposed to wave to.]
We're all going through the 'void'. Which is the very colorful painful stuff outside. It's not like any sea I've sailed before, but I like learning new things! The problem is... we can't look at it. Or see what to do. I don't think that's good. Does anyone know a way to look at it? Also, is there a reason we're not covering up the windows to make sure people don't look at it if it's bad to look at? We won't be able to navigate it on our own if we can't even look at it.
The second problem! Caw. The second problem is that whoever the captain of this train-ship-thingy is, people haven't seen them, right? And that means, if whatever happens here goes bad, and that captain gets hurt or killed, we don't have anyone else who can steer this thing. Which is stupid and dangerous.
[She folds her arms, making soft cawing noises to herself as she organizes her thoughts again.]
Did I get all that right? We can't look at the void, we don't know how to navigate, we don't have any control in the ship, and we don't even see the captain to learn how to control it? I dunno much of anything about anything happening here, but it seems really dumb to me to not have anyone capable of getting us to port if anything super bad happens.
[She stares at the camera a bit longer, silently. And then...]
Wait, when do people start talking back? Do I need to do something first?
[There's a long pause, and then a WHACK, and the video cuts out as Enna punches the ICP.]

[She did, indeed, say a lot. And she seems to have no intention of slowing down, at all.]
Do you know anything about this train thingy?
no subject
You mean how nothing makes sense and if anything happens, we're probably screwed? Yep, sounds like you got it. Welcome to the Voidtrecker Express!
[ a shake of the head and a shrug with that! ]
no subject
Caw.
That's not welcoming.
no subject
Well, yeah, I know! But I don't think any of us know what to do about that. There's no way to the engine room. And the 'train' and 'listening' is a work in progress.
no subject
[Some people 'um' and 'hm'. Enna makes bird noises instead.]
Has anyone tried brute force?
no subject
Yup, storage room wall. No way in and the wall doesn't break. Dunno what anyone's tried from the outside 'cept using mental powers, and thattt...didn't work out great.
no subject
Caw. Most of my powers aren't here, but I can get in. Probably. If there's anything shiny inside, I can get there.
no subject
'Shiny'? What do you mean?
[ About any of that? ]
no subject
[...... Yeah, try again.]
no subject
/puts in Try Again quarter]But that has something to do with your powers?
no subject
[She nods, happy to be understood.]
My power is collecting treasure. Treasure comes to me. If there's a way in, and there's treasure inside, I'll find it. Or it'll come to me.
no subject
[ A stealing hobby. He's got a joking tone, but also. ]
no subject
[she doesn't... pick up on the stealing thing...]
no subject
You still think it's possible?
no subject
... One time, near Volans, I found a cave. And as soon as I went in, a wall caved in. There was a ton of treasure buried behind it! Gems and coins. We sold most of it to get the ship repaired, though...
If I look for treasure, I'll find it.
no subject
...well. ]
If you wanna give it a go, the wall everyone tries bashing in's the one with the face on it.
[ Should he be encouraging her, even he doesn't know. ]
no subject
... Face? On a wall?
Face?
no subject
Not a real one. Drawn on! Right next to a message telling you not to attack it. [ A beat. ] The wall.
[ Do Not Attack The Wall. ]
no subject
... What happens if you attack it?
no subject
...
You know, I don't know. Nothing? They're probably worrying about the food in there.
no subject
There's food? I want food! Where is it? There's food in the place no one can get to? That's dumb. Wait, no, that's not the point, the point is where's food?
no subject
You not been to the dining car yet? The kitchen? Where are you?
no subject
[In her defense, it was a very fluffy sheep.]
I'm in my bunk now! Cabin. Quarters? Caw. 1-E it says!
no subject
[ ...eh! ]
It's a walk, but you keep going right when you come outta your cabin, you'll bump into it eventually. Cabins are on the opposite end! You end up in the luggage or dress car, you're going the wrong way.
no subject
[pause.]
... And I guess I can't keep talking if I leave? Or you won't hear it, anyway.
