[ TLV | Video ] 015 - The slumbering princess awakens...

[It's been a while since Claudia's face has been seen on the Network, it's true. And the look on said face at the moment is one of mild amusement. Her hair is rather a mess, no colored streak, no jewelry even (except for the multiple ear-piercings of course, and the SD card on a cord around her neck). She appears to be in her room, which is much tidier now than when it was previously seen. She's got a Jinksie in her lap, currently washing his face with his paw.]

S'up, bitches? Seems like things got kinda exciting around here while I was KO'd. What the hell happened, a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure flood?

[At least she isn't completely anti-social like she'd been before. She's still very obviously got something heavy weighing on her shoulders, but she's not letting it bury her under anymore. This is Claudia attempting to resurface.]

And there's some new faces around, which.. I guess is pretty much to be expected. [She points at the screen:] New faces -- [and points at herself.] -- Claudia Donovan. Techie secret agent cyber hacker punk rocker chick with a hint of fabulous, if I do say so myself. [She then looks down at the cat in her lap.] And this is Jinks. He enjoys licking himself while being recorded. Apparently. [In babytalk:] Who's my little exhibitionist? You are! Yes, you are!

[ooc: She didn't do any privately-filtered things because she's actually unsure exactly how long she's been out and is almost afraid to address anyone directly just in case they forgot her/left/don't care about her anymore, fff.]

[ TLV | Video ] 014 - Gotta love them breaches

[It's a slightly more girly Claudia than usual, and a little younger-looking, too. But breach-wise she looks the same as always. Itty fifteen-year-old (shorter even than her twin) donned in mostly black, with pink and purple streaks in her red hair. When she first turns the feed on, she's got her wand in her mouth, idly chewing on it. Which... really is probably not very safe, but guess who doncurr? This one here.]

Bored. Did my fucking homework [Most likely less than half-assed, but in most of her subjects she's likely to get a good grade anyway. She's pretty bright even if she doesn't act it] and now it's time to play.

[Private to her fellow magical stud-ants]

Need something. Money's yours if you've got anything good. [Those who deal in "something"s will know her as a regular customer. She'll be intentionally vague with the obedient students.]

[[ooc: Claudia Donovan (or Dark? IDK!) is a freshman Shark. This is her second year as a freshman, because she flunked for non-participation and skipping classes the previous year. She's the twin of [personal profile] perfectdark. She enjoys stealing your shit, using recreational drugs, and pretending she's someone that she's really not. In other words: she secretly hates herself for being this way.]]

[ TLV | Video/Spam ] 013 - A whole different Claudia

[Oh look, Claudia's back on the network. She looks pissed. There is no vibrant color streak in her hair. If one were to look closely enough there may, in fact, be tear-stains on her cheeks. Obviously this visit home went very not-as-planned.]

I'm back. Willow, we need to talk. I gave you an assignment before I left. Did you do it?

Tim, thanks for watching.... [She looks down. Swallows. Like this is hard to say.] Jinks.. for me. You can drop him back at my cabin whenever...

[Private to Admiral]

I'm changing my deal. I'm bringing Steve back.

[SPAM for around the Barge]

[One might see Claudia around, yes. Though she's a very angry whirlwind right now, hurrying from place to place without so much as a friendly smile to anyone. The snarky fun girl has turned into all-business plus a side of rage girl.

Even at the dining table, she practically inhales her meal in order to leave and go somewhere else.

Most often, she's found in the library doing research or running laps in the gym (it helps blow off steam, okay?). Catch her if you can!

[ TLV | Video ] 012 - Holy crap I'm a vampire.

[On Willow's communicator, in Willow's cabin. It's Claudia. Who looks like Willow. There are tearstains on her cheeks. She doesn't particularly care. She just really wants this to stop already, okay? Please? And, in a trembly, upset Willow-voice:]

...This is Claudia. I've been swapped. Obviously. Not really in the mood to be social, so... Yeah, stay the fuck away from me for right now. That goes for everyone.

[She's having psychiatric hospital flashbacks thanks to this prison-room, forgive the cussing.]

Pretty sure Willow won't take too much advantage of the situation, but... Just be aware that she's out there in my body, I guess.

[And before she shuts this off, she murmurs:] I'd kill to just have my damn iPod back. Fucking silence. Can't stand it.

[ TLV | Video ] 011 - Every second is a highlight

[Backdated to beginning of port because lol RL made me lose track of time.]

[There is some loud music in the background, though she turns it down shortly after starting the feed. Claudia's got a streak of blue in her hair, even a touch of makeup on (just eyeshadow and lipgloss, pretty much). She looks pretty much back to her good-mood self, but. Who wouldn't be, here on Risa?]

My body is ready. [/Internet lingo.]

This vacation? Much, much needed. Granted, getting groped by strangers isn't really my idea of fun. But I'm willing to put up with it, because. Yeah. Clubs. Let's do this shit.

[Private to Tim:]

Sooo... How about a date that doesn't include sweats and the gym? You game?

[Private to Willow:]

Planning a date with Tim tonight, but you wanna do a girl's night out dancing sorta thing tomorrow night? Until then, try to have some fun, hang with people, make friends. And, of course, holla at me if you need me, Fangs.

[ TLV | Voice ] 010 - Announcement

[She clears her throat before she speaks, though when she does it's apparent she's completely over that cold/flu/whatever now.]

'Sup, it's Claudia. Just wanted to give everyone the announcement, since my inmate hasn't yet. Willow's gotten her soul back. She got it around the time of the last flood. So, yeah, that's it, you may now return to your irregularly scheduled Barge programming. Claudia out.

[ TLV | Video ] 009 - Hi my name is Sneezy.

[Sittin' in her bed back in her cabin, drinking some juice through a pink double-heart-shaped crazy-straw. Her hair is a little messy (though she does have a pink streak in it) and she looks pale, but otherwise there's no leftover visible trace of her illness from the last few days. (Don't ask her how she got flu-type sickness in space. From port, maybe? She hasn't thought too hard on the how yet.) There is, however, an audible trace - her voice sounds lower than usual, and still sort of congested.]

Uhm. Sorry I've been AWOL from the Network for a while, you guys. I was kind of down for the count. To be honest, it was kinda good timing? But also bad timing. Eh, never mind. It was neutral timing. But weird. Guess I called it on the space-sickness though, huh? [A grin here, though she knows that wasn't the type of sickness she was referring to when she first arrived on the Barge.]

How much did I miss, anyway? Fill me in, pretty please? My eyes are still too tired to go back-tracking.

[Private to Merlin]
Thank you.

[Private to Dracula]
I seem to recall you leaving me a message, but for the life of me I can't even remember what was going on. You doing okay?

[Private to Dean]
Thanks for hauling my ass to the medical ward during the worst of it, despite my protesting. I did manage to get back before Willow got soul-ified, so all's good here. Or mostly good, anyway.

[ TLV | Video ] 008 - Ensoulment discussion

[TEXT / Private to the Admiral]

Admiral, if it's at all possible, I'd like to request Willow's soul be returned to her, preferably sometime within the next 24 hours. And if you can't do it, let me know ASAP, as I've already been researching other methods. Thanks.

[(EDITED) AND LATER, AFTER THE PATRONIZING ADMIRAL HAS RESPECTFULLY (LOLOLOL) DECLINED:]

[Have a video with Claudia sulkily munching on a cookie. She is quite frowny-face. There is some pouting. She's back in her cabin now, and not in the library.] I'm starting to get the whole "Admiral Sucks" vibe that goes on around here now. Cookie's okay, though, not gonna lie.

[Private to Merlin ([personal profile] takeyouapart)]

Admiral declined giving Willow's soul back. I've been doing some research. [Pause.] Okay, a lot. But I'm completely clueless when it comes to magic. So, I'm not sure it's helped much, if any. Uhm. Help please?

[Private to Dean ([personal profile] surfaceshine)]

Dude, you got me all excited for cream cheese and bagels and then bailed. What gives? [Yet there's obvious concern in her tone, and in her expression.] ...You okay? 'Cause, uh, if you're available, I might need some assistance man-handling Willow down to level zero while I try to get this whole ensoulment thing started. If you can think of anyone else that might also be able and willing to help, it would be sooo much appreciated.

[Private to Dracula ([personal profile] nolongerhollow)]

I'm contacting Merlin to help me get started on bringing Willow's soul back. And I've contacted Dean to try and help get her down to level zero so no badness happens in the meantime. Can I get your help with that, too? And, uh, I might ask you to stay with me down there, too, once this all gets started... I could really use the help and the support. Also: you're awesome. And I promise once things get settled down, we are so having that MST3K party. Count on it. [Have a sincere, if still a little stressed, smile.]

[ TLV | Video ] 007 - The Fourth Wall

[This will be the first video entry where Claudia is actually not in her cabin. She's in the library. There are books open around her. There are lots of post-it notes. Her communicator is propped up on a book so she doesn't have to hold it.

She's got a bright streak of red in her hair. She's devoid of any jewelry besides her normal abundance of earrings, and her Wardening matching bracelet to Willow's. She looks quite tired.
]

Okay, I could use a good distraction. Sooo... What's going on here, random strangers? Anyone I know out there? ...Artie?

[[OOC: No mistaking her for her actress. That's pretty much the only thing I ask. Feel free to mistake her for other characters with her face, though.

[ TLV | Video ] 006

[Yes, it's taken Claudia a while after port ended to get this up, but. Hopefully no one's been too worried about her. When she turns the communicator on, she's sitting on her floor with her guitar in her lap, though she moves it and sets it aside, leans back against her bed and sighs a little. There is no streak of color in her hair this time, and the black paint on her nails is chipped... She doesn't seem too concerned about it.]

Yeah, I pulled a stupid. Sorry about that. [Some may find that insincere, may even think it's sarcastic (she does have a tendency towards sarcasm), but in truth she feels quite like a five-year-old having run off on her own into a dangerous situation, without even really thinking about it. She is sorry.] I'm fine, though. And I'll... try to be more helpful at port next time. [She seems a little iffy on that. To be honest right now she's feeling like maybe she doesn't even belong here.]

[She reaches her hand up to pull a file down from on top of her bed.] Looks like I got a little assignment to do in the meantime. Guess who's been handed an inmate? Is there any surprise at all in who it is?

[She flips the file open, lips tilting just slightly as she reads over it, then looks back up at the screen.] Willow Rosenberg. I've been working on a little present for you since I got back from port. We need to meet up so I can give it to you. [And by "present" she means a bracelet with an ability to shock the wearer, starting at 20k volts and tune-able up to a (insert much higher but non-lethal volt charge here, mun will figure out later, too lazy to research at this moment). Claudia has a matching bracelet that will turn the other one on at a press of a button. She's already wearing this bracelet, but among her other bracelets and rings, it would be hard to tell that it was made for such a purpose.]

[Filtered to Wardens PLUS Dracula]

[She runs a hand through her hair. She looks... tired. Maybe even sort of depressed, if you're any good at reading emotions on people's faces.] So apparently the type of vampire Willow is doesn't have an actual soul. And from what I've heard and read... She's probably going to need her soul back, if I want any chance at all in redeeming her. Basically, what I'm asking here... Is there anyone that could help me with doing that? Is it as simple as asking the Admiral for her soul back, or do I need... some sort of spell? Magic?

[Private to Buffy]

At some point I really think I need to talk with you, about... Well, yeah, you know. But there's really no rush at all. Just... whenever you think you'd be.. more comfortable, I guess? With talking about that.

[Private To Arthur ([personal profile] paradoxlol)]:

So somehow I missed previously that you'd uh... Been killed? Thanks to Willow. Aaand I noticed you were talking to her about level zero. I'm just gonna straight-out ask you if you'd... please not bring that to the other wardens' attention? I mean, yeah, she did bad, she did... very bad. I got bit, too. But one: she already got staked, and that's a pretty hefty punishment in itself, I think. And two: after being bed-ridden for several days, I don't think an additional period of isolation is going to do her any good redemption-wise. And if it's safety you're worried about, I promise I can watch her. I'm already planning on escorting her to her cabin. It's right down the hall from mine too, so... Should make the watching easy.

[Private to Angua ([personal profile] scentbombed) and Buffy ([personal profile] slayage)]:

You may or may not have already figured out I was your extra person in the dining hall the other night. And I haven't actually told anyone about it and honestly? I don't plan to. So if you're worried about that... Well, don't.

Anyway, I'm contacting you because I have a request to make. I think it would be in Willow's best interest (strictly as an inmate here for eventual redemption) that she not be sent to level zero. Not now that she's been bed-ridden for several days thanks to death-toll, I mean. Isolation is only going to help so much. I really, truly, honestly think what she needs is normal human interaction.

I've already explained to her that misbehaving will mean going to level zero and she's shown she... really, really does not want that. I don't think she's going to be wreaking havoc any time soon. Even so, I do promise to keep an eye on her myself, since her cabin happens to be right down the hall from my own. And I'm actually planning on escorting her from the infirmary in a bit here, too.

So... Yeah, I realize I can't stop you from drawing the other wardens' and the Admiral's attention to what Willow has already done. But I can ask you not to suggest she be put in level zero, and I've given you my reasons why. So. I hope you'll be understanding about it all.

Have you ever tried so hard not to think about something until it's all you can think about?

[Sigh.] Yeah, it's official: I have got the homesick. Artie, Pete, Myka, Josh, Leena... Steve. And Artie would kill me for saying it, but I kind of miss H.G. as well. Uh, not that you guys haven't been great so far! I gotta say: I really appreciate all of you that volunteered to help me with the whole defense thing.

Oh, hey, that reminds me. Is a warden allowed to kill an inmate? I mean, on purpose. Not in self-defense. And this is just a hypothetical-type question here! [Lies. She witnessed Buffy staking Willow the other night. And honestly she hasn't been able to sleep since, which is why she's doing this entry voice instead of video - along with the bandage on the side of her neck, she's also got that crappy sleepless/zombie look going on.] 'Cause personally I don't think that's such a brilliant idea.

...And it would be all kinds of helpful if some of you would tell me what you know about vampires.

[OOC: Claudia does indeed know how to use filters. For the question regarding warden ethics, she actually wants to hear all opinions - including inmates'. And she didn't think the request for vampire knowledge really needed a filter. /SHRUG.]
