[So Natalia has watched her video, she's sat on the ground (in the grass, she's not really questioning that just yet)with a brow cocked at the device on her wrist, and she's assessed that this is not her comm device. She can't establish communication through any of her normal channels. She's also pretty pissed that someone has stripped her of her electronics.

She sighs pulling her hair back into a long tail, so the next logical step here is... Obviously to address the network. And try to get a handle on what is going on.]

So... I'm guessing no one has seen a ten foot tall angry gorilla with an automatic passing through here.

[Yes, a gorilla with a machine gun. Not a guerrilla, and actual primate. Fur, fangs, opposable thumbs, surprisingly intelligent, a quality most guerrillas seem to lack. The thing knew Russian, for godsake. That's pretty damn impressive for a better than thousand pound ape.]

Okay, well...What about a guy, kind of broody and rough around the edges, wearing a dinky little mask that only covers his eyes? Black pants, seems to have an allergy to sleeves... a metal arm? Might answer to James if you're really nice? We were together just as my friend Koko attacked.

[She pauses long enough to take a breath and squint at the area she's in.] No?

[Natalia shrugs.] I guess then I'm going to need to request an evac? Something tells me I'm not going to get one though...

I suppose you're right, but they are more cuddly looking, they could use that to their advantage.

[She lets him see a little peek at a smile.] No problem, we'll figure things out maybe touch base later on once we've got a little more to go on.

[tryingitall]

Also true, and a fair point.

[Hmm. A smart woman with a sense of humor and a high level of comfort with the bizarre? He'll definitely keep an eye out for this one.]

Cheers, then! Good luck finding your primate. And the other fellow, too.

Ugh...don't mind me, my brain just isn't functioning enough to HTML Today.

[Oh well, you know when you're a former Soviet super soldier approaching your eighty-fifth year alive, you tend to have a little bit different perspective on things.]

Thank you. If you do happen to run across either of them, give me a shout.

story of my life, too. never a problem.

[tryingitall]

I will! Take care of yourself.

[He cuts the feed with a cheerful salute.]
