Hi, everyone. My name's Rebecca.
[ The video opens on a small, homey apartment, filled with plants and books. Rebecca sits at a small piano, a mug of coffee steaming by her side. She looks...tired, really. It's been a difficult few weeks.
But that's no reason not to keep trying. ]
I was just wondering...what's the state of medicine like in your world? I had thought we were on the cutting-edge back home, but with everything I've seen here, you realise just how far we have to go. Considering everything that happens to us so regularly here, it can be really easy to lose track of your health.
I'm a field medic and a chemist, so I'd never call myself a doctor, but I still wanted to extend an offer to everybody: if you need someone to patch you up or do a quick check-up, call me. If you need medicine - over-the-counter stuff, obviously, not anything serious - then I'll run it over or get someone to deliver it to you. Just... [ She gives a weak smile. ] I want to help a little more, and I don't think being okay with a handgun really holds up against everything others can do, you know?
...anyway, I'm rambling. [ She looks down, playing an idle few bars of a melody. ] I've been staying in a lot. Watching old Disney movies, mostly, and I ended up working on this...
[ She adjusts the sheet music and sets her fingers in position. What follows is a nice little rendition with very few errors. Being able to just concentrate on something helps, a lot. Once it's done, she flashes a quick, embarrassed smile at the camera, then leans over and shuts it off. ]

I wonder if Aladdin really had such an adventure with a princess. He never mentioned it, but I suppose I shouldn't have expected him to tell me everything.
no subject
[ Oh, she has a hunch here... ]
Do you know Aladdin?

[ She's taken aback. Not for long, but enough that she has to regather herself and flash an apologetic smile. ]
He's a mythological figure in my world, but I shouldn't be surprised he's real in another. He did seem a good person in the movie, though.
no subject
...Still, maybe I shouldn't be surprised. There is definitely some sort of connection between the Reim empire of our world, and the "Roman empire" many others have told me about.
no subject
They might be... [ She's falling down a thought hole now. Rebecca leans back on her stool, propping her chin on a fist. ] Does the name 'Caesar' sound familiar at all?
no subject
The princess, though. I wonder... could it have been the princess of Kou?! And to think that they were both here... how tragic that she was gone by the time he arrived!
I don't think I know a "Caesar," but the empire is vast. [ shrug ]
no subject
It does sound too bad. It's a really sweet love story.
no subject
And do you suppose Aladdin would be jealous if he found out that Princess Kougyoku and I briefly raised a child together?
no subject
[ But then, there wasn't much semi-mythological Middle Eastern history in her chemistry degree. Not so surprising. ]
This place proves that multiverses mixing together can happen. I wouldn't be surprised.
