[Really, at first, Anita looks nothing short of irate, sitting in front of the camera with her arms crossed. She's already heard every possible explanation from the folks at the hospital, and while she's done her best to take it with a grain of salt, she's not pleased. It's difficult to wrap her head around, honestly, and that's saying something, considering what she does for a living and how often she spends her time ass-deep in myths and legends. All sorts of things that people once thought were fictional but were, in truth, real.
This is just a twist she had never expected.]
The funny thing is that this is only bordering on the weirdest thing that's ever happened to me.
[She's certainly seen worse. Nobody is trying to chain her to a bed and slice her up, so, you know, that's a definite plus.]
I'm sure plenty of other people have shown up and started talking about how this just can't be true, so I'm going to skip that part for now and worry about finding out more about this place. I'll assume we're not looking at an island full of humans, given the circumstances. There's nothing wrong with that, but humor me. I'm curious. Are the police any good, or is it all Gangs of New York up in here?

Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
Why not? I didn't lie or anything. I mean I plan to tell her that he's nice as well.
[Nice terrorists. Yeah even she clicks to how messed up that sounds.]
If you want, I'll tell her about how you bailed me out of the hospital after I broke the window and punched that nurse.
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
Let's leave the incident about how I threw the weight of my badge around to sneak you out of hospital custody between us, okay? I'm not... Entirely sure the way you would tell it would help my case.
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
Well alright. I mean I really don't see what the big deal is but if you want me to keep my mouth shut, I can do that.
[All very casual because well, yes, Rose is still missing the point.]
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
It just might be a good idea to let people get a little settled in before you drop a bomb like that.
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[But...]
But. Well. Gonna kinda state the obvious here but Kate? How settled can a person really get when they've been, kidnapped?

Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[That's it Kate just kill a girls hope why don't you!]
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
Four months now.
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[Ya know. Even she doesn't really believe that, what with this not being her first kidnapping and all. Sort of... more like her third.]
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[Kate doesn't believe that either. She knows people go home or onto the real world or... whatever. But no one knows how. Not to mention, with the way things are going in terms of her personal life, she's not exactly in a huge hurry to get off the island anymore anyway.]
But you get... Used to things. Things happen and you can't put your whole life on hold forever.
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
You get used to it... Why not huh? I've gotten used to crazier shit than this. I don't know about this whole... adjusting thing though. Apparently I might have to go to school again because I don't have a G.O.D or whatever.
[Yes. She means GED.]
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[The look on Rose's face says it all because really? School? She sucked at learning the first time around.]
But I could just not go to college... Your boss said I could apply to be a cop if I wanted.
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
He said what?
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
Oh yeah! I mean, I was explaining that with my background, getting a job would be hard and he told me how he used to be in some terrorist group and how like, the last Chief was a mass murderer or something...
[She's seeming s casual that it's almost hard to believe that she is being serious.]
But he said, ya know. Well you guys don't run background checks and when I mentioned the whole, being in prison thing, he didn't think that would really be a problem.
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
Sorry, did you say prison?
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[Rose pressed her lips together, bouncing her eyebrows as she waited for Kate to really process that one.]
I mean, I was framed, just for the record and all but. I wasn't sure how the police here would look at something like murder. Well. Treason. Well. Same diff.
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[Wow you are just getting all the side-eye icons today aren't you]
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[Bless. She's so earnest. She fails to mention all the shit she did do but has never been arrested for.]
If I'm gonna kill somebody? I wouldn't get caught.
[And now she's bragging about getting away with murder. Metaphorical murder, but still.]
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
Rose. Homicide detective.
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[Though just quietly, Rose rarely plans for anything to happen it just sort of does.]
[threadjacking with private video to Rose]
[She's starting to think she needs to be more picky about her friends.]
Re: [threadjacking with private video to Rose]
Sure. [Smiling brightly.] And don't worry. No more outing the chief as a terrorist and no killing in the immediate future. I swear.
[Yep. She's ending the feed. Because it's safer.]
