[The image flickers on to Kara casually sitting in her chair, arm draped over one side as she pushes herself back, one booted foot coming to rest on the desk in front of her. A lit cigar is between her fingers – they’re finally dry -, and there’s a set of blacked out shades covering her eyes. ]

Guess saying ‘Galactica, come in’ is out of the question, huh? [She snorts, and ashes the cigar before putting it to her lips again to take a long drag.]

Peachy. [Brows up behind the glasses, and her mouth pulls into a smirk that’s lacking humor.] Sounds like we’re all going to be one big happy family here, doesn’t it? [She sounds SO pleased.]

Name’s Kara, call sign Starbuck. I go by either, so pick your poison. [Ash flick, and she pulls the sunglasses off and tosses them aside, grinning.]

Speaking of ‘poison’ – anybody know where the party’s at, or do I have to start my own?

Of course it is. [His mouth draws into a thin, furry line.] I have meditated on my fate and it is quite clear to me that this is the realm that comes at the end of my earthly journey.

[He sounds utterly confident about that too.]

I am Shifu.

So you think you're dead. [Kara is kind of wondering if she is, but that's --

Yeah.]

You're a bear. [She's seen one in a zoo, once. A long, long time ago.]

No, I am not.

[Flat statement, flat ears.]

I am as much a bear as you are a haired ape. This you clearly are not, as you have shaved it all off.

Then what are you? You look like a bear. I've seen them in zoos.

[Wat.]

...I haven't shaved off anything.

[Shifu she doesn't even remember the last time she shaved her LEGS, let alone her ENTIRE BODY.]

Then why is it that your face so clearly lacks fur?

[YEAH, CALLING YOUR OBVIOUS BLUFF.]

. . .

Because I'm a woman.

[ARGUABLY some women did have facial hair but Kara is not one of them. Besides, that's not the point.]

What a strange species to be. [He scratches his chin.] Woo-man. Are you related Hoo-mans?

...A woman is a human. You know, man, woman...male female?

[It's a talking panda. She should NOT be surprised that he thinks she's weird.]
