The mother of all voice tests what am I doing - canon is 'Orphan Black'

[the_best_manicure]

Okay, so

At first, this was all kinds of weird. I mean, there's like..fifty other people in here and I don't know anyone.

But after thinking about it, this could be like, really good for me, you know? Getting out there, meeting people - I mean, I can do that when I'm at work, that's mostly why I do what I do - but a different setting could be fun! And you seem like a total sweetheart, so I'm behind this like, one hundred per cent.

It was Mun, right? Right.

Awk. Ward.

Hiya.

[the_best_manicure]

[She obviously recognises him right away, and gives him a big smile as she does]

Hey! Long time no see!

[fosterwench]

[He waggles his fingers at her, see? Still in good shape for the most part.]

Funny meeting you here.

[the_best_manicure]

I was just gonna say - always nice to see a friendly face

[She flicks her hair off of one shoulder]

How's it going?

[fosterwench]

Oh, you know. Busy [meaning terrible. Always terrible, Plus, Felix feels bad for Krystal, see. He's glad to see her here!] Are you all right?

i feel like that icon sums Felix up kinda well

[the_best_manicure]

Busy's good, though, you know? Better than being bored anyway.

[It's probably for the best he doesn't mention the 'terrible' aspect.]

Me? Oh I'm great! I mean, like I said before, I feel like this place is going to be totally good for me. And if you're here as well, it can't be all that bad, right?

yep

[fosterwench]

[what Felix would give for boring, honestly. He'd even settle for not-Horrible. Her comment makes it necessary to hide a wince. No, him being here is like a harbinger of doom, pretty much.]

Good for you. So ... what does your mun want to do with you, anyway?

[the_best_manicure]

[There's a small, brief frown while she considers the question. By the looks of it, it's not one that's crossed her mind until now]

I don't know..I hadn't really thought about it. I sort of guessed she'd just figure it out

[fosterwench]

Well, just ... [he shrugs a little] Just ... you know. Don't let her ... just watch out for yourself, you know? There's some weird places out there.

[shelbycobra]

Wow, you seem really excited about this.

[the_best_manicure]

Because I am!

I mean obviously at first I was like 'what the hell am I doing here? Who're all these crazy people?' but now I'm so ready for it. I think talking to new people is so important, you know? It really lets you open your mind and put everything in perspective. And in my experience, people are generally so interesting anyway

[And she finally takes a breath While she wasn't speaking unusually fast, she still stops long enough to give the other woman a playfully sheepish smile]

And here I am talking about meeting people and I haven't even introduced myself [Holdng out a hand for her to shake] I'm Krystal, hi!

[shelbycobra]

Shelby, hey. [Shakes her hand with a small smile.]

I was gonna say, usually most people are complaining about being here. It took me a while to get used to it, too, but I actually kind of like it. Probably because now I have so much to talk about. So it's cool to see somebody who seems like they're excited about it for once.

[the_best_manicure]

Nice to meet you

[She shrugs with a knowing sort of smile]

Well, a little optimism goes a long way, am I right? If you're starting out in a new place and you're already acting like a total killjoy, then you're pretty much doomed from the start

[shelbycobra]

Yeah, good way to look at it.

I've seen a lot scarier stuff than this, so I don't really see what the big deal is.

[somethinggay]

Hi.

I mean..

Hello.

[ Don't mind him putting on that American accent again because, wow, er, hi.]

[the_best_manicure]

[She notices the accent change, but still gives him a smile all the same]

Hey stranger - how're you?

what you are doing is beautiful and wonderful and i dont have a canonmate for you so take this gal

[loveisnotenough]

Oh, no.

....You're chipper.

[The disdain is as evident in her face as it is in her polished English accent.]

ahhh thank you! I just hope I'm doing okay with her, she's such a lovely character!

[the_best_manicure]

[While the disdain on the woman's face doesn't go completely over her head, she's going to opt to not let it bother her. So she gives her a smile - smile's never hurt anyone.]

Glass half full, right? Best way to start things off.
