— Thank you.
[ The video catches the tail end of a conversation, with two men shaking hands and parting ways after. The older one is familiar to some, probably — one of the escorts for the new arrivals, just doing his job to help. The younger, the owner of the device it seems, is definitely not native, his clothes the biggest indicator, like he stepped out of some wild tv fantasy drama.
But then the device is turned to Edmund's face, and he waves shortly, just a flick of his wrist, awkward in that he definitely has no idea what he's doing. He doesn't quite smile, but he makes an effort not to look unfriendly. ]
My apologies, to my... audience? [ By the Lion, that is so weird to say to some weird box that apparently helps to communicate with others. ] I asked for help in figuring out how to use this contraption — he was certainly kind about it. He mentioned that plenty of other individuals would have difficulty using the first time around. I suppose he didn't tell me that just to make me feel better.
[ Which he isn't, but that's a differently story. ]
In any case, I am looking for certain people. Three, really. Peter, Susan, or Lucy Pevensie. If any one of them is here, I would deeply appreciate being pointed to them.
[ He'd thought about asking about the others, Mr Tumnus, the Beavers, or even Aslan. But he has had time to watch his surroundings, and there are more humans here than animals, and somehow, he can't fathom that there would be Animals. Besides, in a troubling situation such as this, at least one of his siblings would be in the midst of the chaos. ]
If not, then — my name is Edmund. A ple— [ a thoughtful pause, then finally, a small amused smile. ] I suppose it's not quite a pleasure to meet your acquaintances, since I've yet to meet any of you at all.

Hi, Edmund! My name's Max. Can you describe these people you're looking for? I might have seen them on the network, or something.
no subject
And out of the three, Lucy would be the first to introduce herself here, I think.
[ Troublemaker, that one.
All in all, terrible descriptions and probably no help, with his luck. One can tell that he's not used to having to ask these questions — everyone in Narnia knew who the Pevensies were, after all. ]

I'm sorry to say only one of those names is here, and if you make your way to De Chima, finding Lucy will be very easy.
no subject
[ His face clears a little. Relief, first and foremost, even as he digests the rest of those words. ]
I was told that I would make my way to De Chima. I was assigned a place there; I suppose it would make sense now, if she is there as well.
And — easy to find? I would hope that she isn't in trouble.

[There's the sound of scrabbling, and the high pitched yelp of a dog whose tail just got stepped on, and a drat, no, I'm sorry from Lucy, as she's trying to grab things and failing.
She's usually so composed.]
Edmund!
no subject
[ Edmund makes a face. ]
Are you alright?
[ He is less shocked, but that's because he has been informed that Lucy is present. He'd been waiting, although hearing her voice is still a relief. ]

[Yeah guess who completely misheard.]
That's a strange human name.

Nevertheless, the comments eases him, makes laughs a little. ]
I suppose it would be, if that was indeed my name!
It is Edmund, the latter part was — a mistake. I meant to say something else.

Is that advice or insult, sir? I would take one, but not the other.

No, you're not the only one who's had a hard time. I wasn't really sure where to look. I think I only got part of my face in the frame the first time.
[ he's uh.. obviously better at it now. ]
It seems like you may have already found who you're looking for-- [ he's also learned how to check other public responses, clearly. ] --so that's lucky! I have a friend who lives on the same farm, so I'm sure we'll run into one another at some point. [ a beat, then a brief, bright smile. ] I'm Mahanon, by the way.
( video )
It did take faster than I expected, but my sister has always been kind. She would make friends easily. [ Even if he did worry at first that she'd be well-known for being a troublemaker instead. Not that he's got higher ground there. ] I find myself lucky in that regard.
[ If he did not find a piece of home here, someone whose shoulder he could lean on, he would not be as pleasant to speak to as he is now. ]
What is your friend's name? So that I may tell them that our paths have crossed.

Hello there! Looks like it didn't take long to get the answers you needed.
I take you are one of Her Majesty's brothers, then? Tobias Matthews. It's an honour to meet you.

Apparently not. Lucy was quick to get to me. [ And so were the people that came and informed him of her presence. ] And I am, the one closest to her age. I take it you are a friend?

[ Well, maybe the ships that took them to Terra, but they were big and colourful. This device is pretty small. ] It's really strange, being here. There's so many new things!
video;
[ — And here's another. Plenty of people seem to be more comfortable not showing their faces which is understandable in a way. ]
This world is stranger than mine, in some ways.
[ But there are no talking Animals yet, and to most, that probably is the strangest thing of all. ]

I see you've had your happy reunion already. She has missed you fiercely.
video
She was very quick to tell me as such. She has lingered here for a year by herself, and that is — I am glad to be here for her now, at least. [ He's had experience, being away from his siblings for a short while. It sucked a lot. ] But I see that she hasn't been too lonely. She's made many friends.

Or so I've been told. I've no inkling on whether that is a good or terrible thing.
[ Though he wouldn't want to be far from Narnia for too long. ]
Forgive me, as I seem to have little clue on how to use this device. Many have spoken to me without showing their faces, including you, like how people speak through telephones.

Wait, wait-- You're Lucy's brother, aren't you?
[ He's leaning in towards the screen, practically lit up with happiness. Other people figured this out before him but he doesn't pay attention to that, or the fact that he's being kind of weird in not introducing himself. In this moment there's only room in his head for one thing: Lucy has family here, after she's been away from them for so long. ]

I, yes, I am. One of two, even, and I thought — your face resembles the other, though much younger.

It does get easier with time, using these. I've found pretending it's a mirror helps a bit.

[ Still, it is an effective advice. ]
I should count myself lucky, however, that all who've responded are simply so friendly!

The man you spoke with was telling the truth. There are those of us here who have the same difficulty. I am one of them. [ A beat. ] But it does get easier with time and practice. That I promise you.
no subject
[ He laughs. ]
You seem to have gained proficiency in using it, however.
