[When the feed comes on, Leia spends more time fiddling with it than actually saying anything--adjusting the camera angle, inspecting the device, etc. She wants to make sure she's doing this right! This kind of technology is beyond what she's used to. When she's finally satisfied with it, she gives a bright smile.]

Right, sorry about that. [She clears her throat.] So, hi there! My name's Leia, and I'm pretty new here. I can't say that being dragged into some kind of war is my idea of going some place new, but it is what it is, right? Not like I was busy with my own important matters or anything...

[Despite her attempt to remain positive, she kind of tapers off at the end. Being told you're supposed to fight in a war is a big deal!! Even so, she won't let that get her turn down, and after a moment comes back in full force.] Still! From what I can tell, it doesn't seem like we're always in some kind of trouble here. I know it's kind of a silly question to ask, but what do you guys do here in the meantime? I'm up for hearing about anything honestly. As neat as it is living in a tree house, I figure I should find something to do here when I'm not fighting in some kind of war apparently.

... and that's just about it I guess! Thanks for listening, and here's looking forward to any replies.

You got it. You can also type messages instead of talking and even turn off the video, so no one can see what you look like.

Whoa, really? [THE WONDERS OF TECHNOLOGY...] Wait, but if it's just typed, how do you even know who sent it?

Well the console can track who sends what message, unless you post anonymously from cafés or make an encryption. 'Anonymously' meaning no one knows who you are or where the message came from. Encryptions...well they're like locks, only on computer data.

Wow... I kind of like the face-to-face thing myself, but I guess there are times where you want to hide your identity even on something like this, huh?

...Yeah, I guess so. Some people are just shy, you know?

[Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha....haaaaa...]

Anyway that's the basic run down. It isn't too complicated I think, but if you have trouble you can let me know and I'll try to help you out.

Yeah, that's true. Now that I think about it, there's someone I know who'd probably like doing that because she's shy.

[actually shy not things like HIDING YOUR IDENTITY AS A SUPER HERO!!]

Thanks, Terry! I think I should be able to get the hang of everything after a bit, but it's good to know I've got someone familiar to ask for help.

[SSHHHHHH]

No problem Leia. I'm sure you'd help me out if you were in my place.

Oh, definitely! If there's anything you ever need help with, anything at all, just let me know and I'll be glad to lend a hand! [Even if it's something she doesn't know much about SHE'D TRY TO HELP REGARDLESS.]
