[ the video feed shows Lina looking right back at the screen with a dubious expression on her face, as though she’s unconvinced that this terminal thing actually works. ]

Well, this thing doesn’t look like it’s powered by magic, but it’s definitely not like any machine I’ve ever seen. Where’s Zel when you need him? I guess I’ll just have to trust that it works.

[ And then her disposition shifts a little. Lina draws herself up, smiling winsomely at the screen, hands clasped in front of her. ]

Well! Who cares about that anyway, right? Since I’m in a totally new world and none of you have probably heard of me, I guess it’s up to me to enlighten you all! Standing here before you is none other than the world’s most beautiful, intelligent, magnificent sorcery genius extraordinaire, Lina Inverse, at your service!

Are there, um, peaceful areas you might consider moving to...?

[dragonswag]

Moving? Are you kidding me? I'm a traveling sorceress, buster! I don't really stay put for that long. And yet this stuff always manages to get in my way!

[that's like being a vigilante and complaining about living in crime alley...]

That's unfortunate. Have you considered travelling in disguise or somesuch?

[dragonswag]

Disguises only get you so far, and they don't always work on mazoku. Ah, but that's just the life I'm cursed to live! That's the price you pay for being famous, you know!

[... so she likes the attention. Or is it the conflict that she enjoys? Hm.]

I guess as long as you're happy with your life, that's what matters.
