VIDEO ▌ 01
[ An incredibly fuzzy image blips across the screen, dark with some patches of skin, which ends up looking like a forehead as the camera pulls back a little. The screen shudders and the audio rustles noisily as she sets up the camera to point it at herself. She speaks directly over the speaker, mumbling low under her breath at first. ]
Testing, testing...
[ Then she draws back completely and with the most utmost concentration, she positions it so it captures at least most of her upper body. She's a skinny little teenager with massive hair, decked out in all black. ]
Hellooo, Legionnaires! Lash here, and this is experiment number three. Now I know, I know, I know what you're thinking! "What's with this cute mysterious girl? Boy, would I love to know more about her! Why doesn't she say a few words about herself?!" Well, that's because we've got way more important things to do here!
[ She giggles, an almost diabolical squeaking that sounds distinctly like a "Teeheehee!" ]
Check this out!
[ She presses her palm against the wall of her room, the ones the Legion assigns the newcomers, and her entire body begins to slowly transform. Not just her body, but her clothing, too. The semi-matte texture of the smooth wall turns Lash into a statue of white. Her wild hair almost seems a little too top-heavy, though, and she tilts slightly to one side. ]
Whoa— OK! Looks like the volume is a liiiiittle more equal to the mass than my actual hair, but it's not too bad. I can work with this.

[He runs his hands through it, as if that suffices for visual confirmation of the textural state of his hair.]
It's pretty easy to make it go out with water or snuffin' it out.
[To demonstrate, he pinches one steepled end between his fingers. The trail of smoke ends, and he releases his hair and lets his hand drop to his side.
It's out for a good seconds, but with impeccable timing, it lights back up the very moment he shrugs his shoulders.]

OK! Let's just stop being stupid for like a minute. What is your power then, hmmm?
no subject
He pops up with excitement.]
Infinite storage! Check it!
[He puts the phone down and at a distance so she can see him pull up his bag into his lap. He undoes the buckles and digs into it, starting with just his hand and ends up going shoulder-deep in a bag that shouldn't be able to take much more than his hand alone.]
Where, where--ah, here we go!
[He pulls out a half-finished weapon - the Frag Launcher 2.0 - and shows it off to her. It's complete enough to look like a weapon, but it won't be firing anything until a lot more work is put into it.]
Ta-daaa!

That's soooooo useful! Think of all the crazy things you can put in there! What's the size limit on that thing?! Also is that...a gun? Kinda weird, kinda looks incomplete, but I like the rugged design!
[ Hands put up into a frame, she squints one eye at it as if appreciating fine art. ]
no subject
If there's a limit, I ain't found it yet.
[And yes, his latest creation! He proudly holds it closer to the camera so she can see it better.]
Yep, sure is! Grenade launcher, ta be specific. They didn't give my equipment back when they decided ta take me on, so I'm havin' ta make everythin' from scratch. Finally gettin' the chance ta implement some ideas and improvements I'd been puttin' off fer a while.
no subject
Wow! Boy, reminds me of the good ol' days when I used to make cool weapons and inventions... it feels like it's been a while.
[ She's exaggerating, of course. It hasn't been more than a couple of months since she's been away from her work... ]

Not that he will ever, ever say no to helping someone smuggle something.]
Well, if ya ever need a workshop ta tinker in, I got one set up. Better knock first though.
[His door isn't just always open, for obvious reasons. Sometimes he doesn't want to be disturbed, sometimes he doesn't want some fool playing with his explosives unsupervised,
Casey.]no subject
Sure, sure, whatever ya say! I'll take you up on that offer sooner than ya think, so prepare for a good knocking! Teeheehee...
no subject
[They match.]
