[When the communicator switches on you get a zoom in on a lot of blonde hair. It takes a couple of seconds for Kara to move so you get to see her face instead of only her hair.]

Right, sorry. I don't usually use phones I like face-to-face better- but anyway. I have a couple of questions. And most of them sound pretty much like 'what is this and why am I here'.

[She frowns, one hand on her hip.]

So can we start with getting those two out of the way? Okay, thanks to whoever answers. I mean I know I’m probably being kidnapped for ransom but who’s actually stupid enough to kidnap Supergirl of all people and expects to get away with it. Luthor, I swear if it it’s you…

Speaking of Supers, I’d also like to know what on Argon happened-

[And she pauses, wrinkling her nose. She’s not stupid enough to let it show she is almost powerless out of the blue to people she doesn’t even know, so she switched mid-sentence.]

…to my parents and my cousin. You see, I was in the middle of a family reunion, and I don’t know if bad guys get many of those but ‘sorry I was busy getting kidnapped’ will prooobably not work with my mom.

So, to summarize: Where am I, why am I here, and whose butts do I have to kick to get back to my family?

[ Shiver. But hey, she knows the feeling. ]

Well, the good news is, time is stopped for you while you're here. Nobody will know you were gone.

The bad news is, you're probably going to be stuck here a while and there isn't a whole lot in the way of entertainment. Or, you know, sanity.

[When Steph says that she realizes there's a crucial question she hasn't asked yet.]

Wait, how long have you been here? Are you one of the Wardens?

spam;

[ichoosefight]

Yeah, I am. [ Ha ha why does she feel vaguely embarrassed by that what has her life become? ]

It's been about two years. Give or take.

spam;

[knowsaboutanger]

Wait what?! So I could stay in here for two whole years?!

[ichoosefight]

Most inmates aren't here that long. But yeah, you could be here pretty much until the Admiral gets bored with you.

[knowsaboutanger]

Oh man, this sucks.

[She sighs, sitting on air.] ...But at least I get a cool room meanwhile. How's your room?

spam;

[ichoosefight]

Same as it was back home. [ She shrugs. ] You've seen it. Only now there's an easy bake oven.

spam;

[knowsaboutanger]

Easy being the keyword, I'm guessing.

Were you an inmate before? I'm still confused about the fact that I'm a prisoner.

spam;

[ichoosefight]

No, I'm pretty confused about that too. But it's happening to people I know a lot lately. Kon's an inmate, only he's gone, Babs isn't Babs and she's an inmate, I'm going to stop being surprised eventually.

Kon-El ka fanyu El?

What happened to him? People told me he was in here- is he alright? Did something happen to him? Kal wouldn't forgive me if he got hurt...

spam;

[ichoosefight]

I... have no clue what you just said, but he's not the Kon you know either. And he's gone right now. Just. Gone. And he's sorta my boyfriend, so it really sucks.

Re: spam;

[knowsaboutanger]

It's the family- it doesn't matter did you just said boyfriend wait wait are you dating my cousin that isn't really my cousin? Why didn't you tell me?!

[ichoosefight]

[ She holds her hands up in surrender, a silly smile on her face. ]

You just got here! I was getting to it. I got to it. There.

[knowsaboutanger]

[She holds her hands together]

Does he treat you right? I can kick his as for you if he doesn't when he comes back. Because he will come back, right?

spam;

[ichoosefight]

[ She's about to assure Kara that he treats her very well and she couldn't possibly ask for a better boyfriend, but the next question has her deflating like an untied balloon. ]

I really don't know. He might not.

spam;

[knowsaboutanger]

[Kara's power to make the worst questions at the worst possible moments still works. Yay.]

I'm sorry, Steph. How long had you been dating?

spam;

[ichoosefight]

Going on two months. [ She huffs. ]

I'm sorry, it's totally rude of me to be whining about my boyfriend when you've just been kidnapped to an interdimensional prison barge.

spam;

[knowsaboutanger]

NO! I mean-

[She pulls her into another hug, she's gonna get a lot of these.] I have time to recover and everything. I will have time to get everything explained to me, don't worry about that.

Do people usually come back?

spam;

[ichoosefight]

[ Steph's pretty okay with that right now. ]

Normally if they're gone for good, their warden will be able to tell you. But Kon's is in a coma right now.

spam;

[knowsaboutanger]

[She nods, frowning a bit]

...Why is he in a coma? Does that happen often?

spam;

[ichoosefight]

Yeah. It just sort of... happens, sometimes. People will fall asleep for days or weeks or months.

spam;

[knowsaboutanger]

And nobody knows why? Or how long it usually takes?

spam;

[ichoosefight]

There's no real standard, it's different for everyone. All we can do is take them down to the infirmary and wait.

spam;

[knowsaboutanger]

Is Kon there then? The infirmary?

Can I see him?

spam;

[ichoosefight]

No, he's... gone. Disappeared. Just not here anymore.
