[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.]
reactivates: (3x12 "Stand") ([angry]; standing ground)
[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!

[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.
reactivates: It's true. I am amazing. ([up]; smug)
[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.
reactivates: (3x11 "Emily Lake") ([blank]; I'm listening)
[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.
