[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?

...for a while? Meaning you aren't dangerous now?

[unweeping_willow]

I'm... trying; it's hard.

I'm a vampire.

[knowsaboutanger]

Okay, that explains the inmate thing I guess. But you don't seem... like the vampires I know.

[unweeping_willow]

They put my soul back. [She stroked a bit of hair behind her ear.]

[knowsaboutanger]

They can do that? ...Well, I have seen weirder.

[unweeping_willow]

Merlin could.

It... wasn't fun.

[knowsaboutanger]

...Did it hurt?

[unweeping_willow]

Not physically. [But there was a lot of guilt.]

[knowsaboutanger]

Emotionally, then?

[unweeping_willow]

...I hurt people.

[knowsaboutanger]

And you feel guilty about it.

[unweeping_willow]

Do now; didn't then...

[knowsaboutanger]

I know how it feels. I've messed up... some in my past.

[unweeping_willow]

Don't like it... [That was something of an understatement. But she was still speaking in her vampire-self's short phrases...]

[knowsaboutanger]

Is there someone who does? We have to deal with it and do better.

[unweeping_willow]

How? [A quiet whisper of pain; hurt. She did a lot. Killed people who are never coming back. Played with others like they were animals...]

[knowsaboutanger]

[Kara here left a whole planet to die for the chance to save her city. Yeah, she's gone there.]

I don't know. Haven't figured out that part yet.

[unweeping_willow]

[She nods, faintly; before trying to give Kara a tremulous smile. Kinship and all that... she's not used to people accepting her like that.]
