( diana is seated at one of the consoles in a café when the video feed begins. it seems she’s already gone a bit native—there’s a kedan-style cloak draped around her shoulders, apparently all she needs to keep warm. still, the glint of gold from her armor is perfectly visible, as is the tiara set amongst her dark curls. she’s making no pretense of who she is, should anyone be able to recognize her.

she lifts a hand in simple greeting, smiling. she’s perfectly calm, though anyone who knows her well can probably sense just a bit of tension in the set of her shoulders, the way her eyes are focused. )

There’s many of you here that I know. And many more that I do not.

My name is Diana, and while I’m newly arrived I believe I’ve gotten most of the basics of the situation. It seems you’ve all been busy, recently.

( there’s nothing mocking about her words, and her smile is genuine and honest. she pauses, for a moment, as though to give her audience a breather. then, she continues— )

I’m sure there’s a lot to be done, and I’m willing to offer my assistance to anyone who should need it. But first, I would like to be better acquainted with all of you. If we’ve met before, I’m sure you’ll come and say hello. And if we haven’t, it’s never too soon for introductions.

( both before and after this broadcast and subsequent conversations, diana will be flying over the same café. in effect, she’s using herself as a beacon. feel free to run into her in person if you’d prefer. )

The last crisis? ( her smile's a little rueful, now. )

By the time I got back, only John was on active duty with the League.

[animosus]

The one where Barry came back? [And Batman 'died', but he's looking at the bright side here.]

I've kind of been on and off active duty for a while now.

( she shakes her head. )

He isn't "back." Not for me.

I was talking about when Metropolis was attacked. After Max.

( yeah that's all she's saying about that. )

[animosus]

Oh... that. [Touchy subject, let's not go any further on it even if Hal does think she did the right thing.]

That's actually a while ago for me, but that was not the best of times for either of us.

[mythically]

I'd just gotten back. After I left to clear my head for awhile.

Do things get any better?

[animosus]

[He's takes a little too long to reply.]

Yep! Much better.

[mythically]

( uh-huh. like she buys that. )

I'll take you at your word, then.
