[It's daytime, the day after the last message they sent out. However, the way she's carrying herself is totally different from the last message. With bright eyes and a smiling face, she addresses the camera, sitting underneath a tree and strumming her harp.]

Excuse me, but I was unable to find any real information about my situation last night, and all of those who I asked about it this morning looked at me most strangely! Now that you are no longer in peril of your own, I assume, would anyone be willing to assist me?

My name is Eater. I go by Eater the Minstrel, and am a traveling bard looking for stories of heroes to retell and wonderful gentlemen to, err, retell stories of. However, this land is most unlike any I've visited before!

...and please forgive me if I spoke to you last night. I was a bit rude, wasn't I? I beg your pardon.

[Feel free to have seen Eater's last post or even continue replying to it.]

Oh, yes, of course! Forgive me for that display of brutality.

Err. Nothing really to apologize for, it was a... unique way of dealing with the situation at hand.

[...And curiosity wins, in the end.]

Am I allowed to be curious about the current shift in demeanor from then? Because I won't be if it's rude.

Please feel free. I'll explain. The personality you were speaking with during the night is markedly different from the current personality. He really should be more up front with that aspect of our situation.

[There's a moment to process that statement.]

Ah, you mean to say you've got two distinct personalities inhabiting the same body?

That's right. The male personality is out during the night, and I, the female personality, am out during the day.

[Easy enough to accept. It's not an unfamiliar concept to her. She does have one question about it, though.]

You can remember things that occur to the other -- err, to him? First I've heard of that.

It would be very difficult for us to manage otherwise.

I guess that's true enough. Are you able to speak with one another as well?

We get along reasonably well.

Sounds like a pretty unique situation. Good that you get along, though. It's hard enough when people in the same living space disagree on many things, I can't even imagine what that'd be like in the same headspace.

I can't say there have never been disagreements between us, but we exist in more or less harmony.

Well, it'd be unnatural if there were no conflicts. That's kind of a constant of life, after all.

He hates the clothes I wear. It's his favorite complaint.

I think they look nice. Then again, I'm not a 'he', so... I guess I can see where he's coming from.

[A pause, and she remembers something from their previous conversation.]

So. Do you both play the harp? Play as in actually play, that is.

We do. Would you like a demonstration, Miss Devola?

If you're willing to offer, I'd be more than happy to take you up on it.

[Sadly, I have no canonish examples of Eater's harp music. I know it's a clàrsach, so something like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoNb3_6TvqU).]

[This is a view of the ceiling, because Devola has to put her phone down to properly applaud.]

['kay that's enough clapping, back to a smiling redhead.]

That was lovely. I don't think I've ever heard a harp that sounds like that before, either.

Thank you very much! I've been practicing for a long time.

Believe me, it shows. Did someone teach you the ropes, or did you pick it up on your own?

I had a teacher. I'm afraid we were out of contact long before I came here.

Hope the last contact was amicable enough. It kinda stinks to leave someone on poor terms, and not see them for a while.

The circumstances were complicated.

Story of everyone's life, huh? Nothing ever seems to be cut-and-paste simple.

That would hardly be worth telling about.
