I // [video]

[The screen flickers slightly before revealing a smiling young face, red eyes wide in wonder as she stares at the camera. The girl looks very excited, or at least eager to see what this device does. There's almost a sense of pride emanating from her - after all, being in a family of magi meant that they avoided contact with modern technology as much as possible. So getting this thing to work is quite the accomplishment, and she looks around for a few moments around the edge of the screen - checking things, probably - before looking back at the camera.

Unfortunately, she doesn't notice that it's upside down.]


Hello everyone! I'm Ilyasviel von Einzbern, but Ilya is fine. I'm new here, so I'm looking for someone to be my older brother!

[She smiles again. It's not in her intention to further explain what an older brother entails, since the best older brothers would already know what to do without her telling them. Ideally, the older brother would be someone who's actually older than her, but if they act and look older than her, that's fine too. All things considered, that really shouldn't be too hard...]

I guess a big sister would be okay too... but a big brother would be better. So, someone come play with me, okay?

[Her eyes wander off to the sides of the screen again. A few moments pass by as this continues, and the girl mutters a barely audible 'how do you turn this off?']

The native population, as well as a majority of we "foreigners" seem to believe the coral is responsible not only for our arrival here, but for the curses that afflict us on occasion.

[Although his delivery is fairly deadpan, he's patient in his explanation.]

Some of these curses are extremely dangerous. I'm just surprised that, for a large coral growth to which many attribute some kind of sentience, it would be so indiscriminate as to bring children into its sphere of influence.

[As for whether or not 'Death the Kid' sounds childish, he only exhales a low note:] ...Hmph.

[He can't tell if that's boasting or something a human adult should be concerned about; she seems far too young to go around being familiar with mortal danger.]

Most recently, anyone coming into physical contact with each other would find themselves attached there until a random duration of time had passed.

I've heard of others, less benign than this one, affecting the personalities and even the sanity of all those affected by it.
