[ When Isabel appears onscreen she isn’t even paying attention, but rather idly waving her hand side to side in front of her mouth causing her lipstick to change from red to plum to baby pink to coral. She settles on coral and finally looks at her device. ]

Tell me there’s something interesting to do.

[ She sounds practically desperate. Frowning with her lips in a pout, she sighs. ]

I’m going to go crazy.

You could always change your lipstick a few more times. [...Jo.]

What do you like to do?

[ She raises her eyebrows, the ghost of a smirk on her face. ]

I'm a perfectionist when it comes to cosmetics. As for what I like to do, I like to drive, listen to music, organize events...

[ Her head tilts to the side and she shrugs. ]

I don't do much for fun.

If those are what you like to do, you're probably bored here. [Interesting.]

You can't think of anything you like to do for fun?

This place has been interesting enough to stave off boredom so far. It's just that I have so much... Crap going on back home that I've never really developed hobbies.

[ She winces and gives a weak smile. ]

[Oh, that does make things harder. Jo thinks for a moment.]

Back home is where you did the event stuff?

[ Isabel nods. If there was an event that needed planning, she was the girl to go to. ]

I organized things around school, community events, the Christmas pageant for the grade school kids...

[ She sighs and raises her eyebrows. ]

Not a whole lot to plan, here.

Maybe not fun things to organize, but you could set up resources. That kind of thing.

You should enjoy the quiet. (She is a little entranced by the talent.) Are you gifted at cosmetics?

You're probably right.

[ Isabel smiles faintly and pauses a moment. That's certainly one way to put it. ]

I have an ability that allows me to change things - their color or temperature or things along that line. It's especially useful with cosmetics.

I promise it will change. (That is a given with Hadriel.) I have not used many - any - cosmetics. They are not readily available on Westeros.

(Not for noble ladies anyway.)

I'm always a little suspicious when things get quiet.

[ She smiles a little brighter. ]

They're common where I come from. It's kind of fun, matching your lips to your dress, swiping a little bit of color on your eyelids. It's a kind of artistry of its own.

As am I. I use the time to prepare. (By gathering food and making sure her home is secure...)

I believe you. (She gives a small smile.) I would like to learn.

That's smart.

[ Now that she thinks about it she should probably be doing the same. ]

I could show you some things. [Isabel raises her eyebrows and cants her head slightly. It's not much of an offer given what she has available. ] I don't have the same brushes or cosmetics I have back home, but I can show you the basics.

I have had time to learn; this is the second world I have visited besides my own.

(You live, you learn, you hope you don't get eaten.)

The basics interest me and I know supplies are limited. (But that might not always be the case?) I am Sansa Stark and I work at the sewing shop.

[ She tilts her head, looking mildly surprised, maybe even pleasantly so. ]

Me too. I was somewhere else before I was here. Not where I belong, I mean.

[ This is actually a less dangerous world than the one before, so Isabel is counting her blessings. ]

I'm Isabel Evans. I... Am unemployed, but I live on the east island. I can visit you sometime, if you'd like?

What was it like? (Multiple worlds are bound to be a point of curiosity. Sansa doesn't consider herself much of an adventurer, but she has loved stories since she was a child.)

Or I could visit you. I live on the south island, near the shore, so taking a ship would not be difficult.

Strange.

[ Her eyebrows wrinkle together as she remembers Reims. ]

There were monsters all around. They were attracted to noise, so everyone sort of took a vow of silence. We learned a kind of sign language so we could communicate with our hands, instead. There was a man who could control minds...

[ She frowns. If one thing is for sure, she's glad to be away from Kilgrave. After a moment's pause, she finds herself smiling again. ]

That's perfect. I think this could be fun.

Strange is putting it nicely, I fear. (She shudders at the description, drawing a shawl closer around her shoulders.) Hadriel with its monsters must seem like a kinder environment. At least we can speak.

(Staying on the subject of Kilgrave won't do either of them much good. Makeup is far less complicated.)

I will sail as soon as a ship is available.

You can always train at fighting.

[Training is interesting, right?]

[ She thinks about it for a second and nods a little. ]

I don't know if I'd be any good at fighting, but I guess that's the point of training.

[Ignoring her request for the moment because THIS IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT.] Did you just magically change your lipstick?

[ Isabel tilts her head to the side with a shrug. ]

Sort of. Less magic, more science.

.......More science? [He frowns a little at that. That does not quite explain what she just did on screen.]

Like a...

[ She waves her hands around as she tries to find her words. ]

Chemical thing more than a magic thing.

How are you doin’ that? [Because that’s what’s important.]

[ Her lips curve into a tiny smile. ]

I'm changing the molecular structure of the lipstick to change the color.

[She understood part of that.]

That's something people can do? Or is that, like, magic?

It's something people like me can do. My brother can do it, too.

[ So, see, it's a family thing. When your family is alien. ]

What do you mean ‘people like you’?

Ah...

[ She winces slightly. ]

Not entirely human people?

Robot? ‘cept I never saw a droid girl do that. Maybe the really nice models.

Hey! Same hat! Same hat! I can do that too!

[The elf gives a wiggle of her fingers, which is totally for dramatic effect and not related at all to the spell, before the shimmery pink gloss on her lips shifts to a deep matte red.]

[ Her eyebrows shoot up and she smiles brightly. ]

Nice choice in color, too.

Thanks, it's a fav.

So what study are you under? What other spells do you got?

I'm... Not entirely certain. I just kind of stumbled into this.

[ She shrugs. ]

But I can do just about anything cosmetic.

[ With another wave of her hand she puts loose curls in her hair. ]

How cute.

What about clothes?

What do you find interesting - art, music, hunting, cooking, any of that?

[ She pauses a moment in thought. Outside of organizing community events and working very hard to hide her secrets, Isabel doesn't do much. ]

I like art. Cooking to a certain degree.

You can draw. I've managed to find a good art pencils and some paper. And you can get really creative with cooking, try to find ways to make what we have here better.

The food can always use improvement.

[ Isabel smiles a little. ]

Drawing could take up a fair amount of time, too.
