[When the screen flickers on, there is a tilted view of the ceiling and part of a window. Suddenly, after an exclamation off-screen, the device seems to have been dropped, because the view tilts wildly until it lands facing the floor.]

No way, no way, no way! [The British voice can be heard, a level of excitement creeping into it.] Wow, I didn’t think something like this could… wow! [The view tilts again, shaking until it brings a young man’s face into focus.]

This is really so cool! And everyone can see it, right? That's how it ... works, right?

[He seems to start pressing buttons at this point, accidentally turning the stream off suddenly in the middle of an exclamation of excitement.]

[He might think ninjas are pretty cool, not gonna lie.]

Yeah, sure, if you wanna talk about it! [He doesn't mind listening a bit, mostly 'cause she's likely to help him out figuring out where things are around here, yeah? Yeah.]

Well, it's a hidden village full of shinobi.

[ She usually says this to get rid of the initial shock. Time to see if it works. ]

...hidden village full of what? [What even is a shinobi? Now that really sounds Asian.]

[punches]

Ninjas. [ Holding up a finger excitedly. ] Like myself.

I miss it a lot, but this place is growing on me.

Whoa, whoa! You come from a village of ninjas?? [That's... wow. Just wow.]

[punches]

[ No point in being subtle about it anymore. ]

That's right. A hidden village. Not so much now that I'm here blabbing on about it, but it's real.

I guess not, huh? [You have his full attention now.]

...wait, are ... you a ninja? [No, Joseph, she just lives in a village of ninjas because ninjas are cool... oh my God.]

[ Hey, what woman wouldn't hang out with a bunch of cool ninjas? ]

It'd be kinda weird if I wasn't, huh? Especially after everything I've told you, hah!

[Wow, that's... so cool! He grins widely.]

So can you disappear and kill people secretly? [That is, in fact, everything that ninjas do. Okay.]

[punches]

That takes a lot of hard work and I don't exactly kill people secretly. I could if I needed to however.

[ So he better watch out. A ninja knows his face now! ]

[Cue an admiring look.]

That's pretty amazing. [Smirk.] Then again, it doesn't need to be secret to be effective.
