[ Kara spends some time familiarizing herself with her surroundings before trying to send a message. It's all very strange, very alien, but no more so than Earth is. Once she feels collected enough to do so she turns her attention to the console. It isn’t quite like anything she’s ever used before, but the technology is close enough to what she’s used to on Krypton that after a bit of fiddling around she manages to get the video feed on and recording. She takes a deep breath and addresses the network. ]

I’m told that people are brought here from all over the place. If that’s true, and you can all understand me… [ She doesn’t really get how that works, but she sincerely hopes that it does. Otherwise, she’s on her own. Again. ]

I need to know. How many of you know the planet Krypton? And what do you know about it?

[ She almost adds a ‘please’, because if nobody here has answers for her then she won’t know anything until she returns home. If she returns home. But instead she clenches her jaw and turns off the feed. ]

[She's pretty sure it's going to break Clark's heart to have a Kara that doesn't seem to trust him. She's trying not to let it bother her that one of her best friends doesn't even know her]

No problem. Good luck working it out, and with everything else here.

I'm Batgirl, by the way.

[She doesn't like using that name on the network, but it's only fair she give Kara something]

[notdreaming]

It's nice to meet you, Batgirl. [ Even if that's kind of a weird name. What does she know about human names anyway? ]

[controlledvariable]

You too, Supergirl. [Because it does feel like meeting an entirely new person, even if she looks the same as Kara] I can't - give you the number of my suite's console, secret identities and all that, but I'll keep an eye on the network and I can be reached through Superman, if you need me.

[Just in case Kara ever wants help with anything. Not that Steph thinks she can manage on her own, it's just... nice to offer, anyway]

[notdreaming]

It's just Kara.

[ She doesn't really understand why she can't get a console number, but she doesn't think it will be an issue. She likes talking to people in person anyway. ]

That's alright, I'm sure I can find you if I have to.

[controlledvariable]

Right, sorry. Force of habit. [She's going to have to... not do that.

There's a lot of things she's going to have to change about how she interacts with Kara. It's not fair to treat this one like her friend back home.]

I'm sure you can. [That could be a threat, but Steph knows it wasn't supposed to be]
