[ It takes Jane a long while to settle down to this first ... whatever. Video? Journal entry? Something. She has clothes - not her own, but clothes nonetheless - and even a small bag of food, to take with her when she goes to find ... well. Someplace to stay. Stay, not live. This won't be home. It can't be.

She sighs heavily, puffing her cheeks out on a hard breath as she flips through the pages. An hour or two of reading have acquainted her with how the system works, as bizarre as it is. She sounds tired, when she speaks, a sort of bone weary ache. ]

Alright. So the journal is some sort of half-book half-iPad technomagical means of communicating, aaaaand this place gives you wings. [ A beat. ] There's a cheesy Red Bull ad in there somewhere, but I'm not going there.

[ A pause. Stay on track for three seconds, why don't you? ]

Sorry, I-- my name is Jane Foster. I'm a astrophysicist with SHIELD, if that means anything to anyone. Well, more like a researcher, but -- anyway. I just really hope that means something to someone. It'd be nice to at least -- I don't know. Have a familiar face from my own world. Or universe. I'm guessing universe.

[ Another pause, shorter. ] So how many versions of Earth are there, here? I'm going to guess at least a dozen. Maybe several dozen, who knows. And probably plenty of other worlds besides. From who knows how many different universes. And yet here we all are. [ She laughs, incredulous and kind of unhappy. ] This place is somehow the special one. I'd just -- love to know how they do it, really. Someone's going to tell me it's magic, and I just--

[ She finally stops, sighing again. ]

Sorry, sorry. Um -- hi. Nice to ... meet all of you, I guess.

Could just be a coincidence? ...well, a very odd coincidence.

[Sorry, Jane, didn't mean to stress you out when you first got here.]

Anakin Skywalker.

... Skywalker?

[ .... opens mouth. Shuts it. NO GIVE HER A MOMENT SHE'S TRYING VERY HARD NOT TO GO "Like from Star Wars"? ]

[...this is going to get even more awkward, isn't it.]

Yeah, it—you probably know that name from a series of movies, I'm assuming.

[ w i n c e.

Her reaction is so visibly awkward as to be comical, if he's watching her through the camera. She pulls her face in awkward ways, draws her chin back, bites her lip, the works. ]

.... so I'm not the first person to bring that up to you, huh.

[Very comical. He actually manages a grin watching her reaction.]

When I first arrived I was told about them. I haven't seen the films myself and I try not to think about them, but it does come up from time to time. Luke and Obi-Wan seem to be quite popular, as much as it's disconcerting it's also a little amusing.

[ Well. ... well. That's ... something? She manages a little smile in response to his, though. Still awkward, but there. ]

You know... I can't blame you. I actually, um. I heard there might be a movie with... me in it? [ Another wince. ] So I can sort of sympathize.
