OOC: I'm assuming that it's unlike the IMRP where the wires were covering her head, because in order for her to do anything but say 'mmmmmmmph' (which would make for some pretty boring writing on my part xD) then her head has to be uncovered. Mia was too shocked to respond for a few moments, blinking in surprise at her sudden predicament. Then she gave a high-pitched shriek of rage and squirmed around in her wire cocoon, trying to free her arms. "THIS ISN'T WHAT I HAD IN MIND!!!"

"What did you have in mind?" Kae-in-VIR asked rhetorically. She clanked over to the computer console and tapped a few buttons, causing the wire-tentacle-rope things to shift so that Mia couldn't move an inch. "There, that should hold you for a while." She turned to Jo. "You know what, Jo, I'm hungry. Let's go get something to eat." She climbed into the elevator and Jo followed. OOC: Sorry for controlling your charrie, Sadie, but Mia has to be alone to figure out the voice control. ^>^

Mia screamed over at the elevator shaft, more in aggrivation than in hope that the alien invaders would hear her: "FINE, GO, EAT YOUR STINKING IRKEN SNACKS!!! THAT STINK!!! THIS DOESN'T CHANGE A THING, I'LL STILL GET MY CAMERA BACK!!! YOU JUST WAIT!!!" She bit her lip as she realized, she was talking to herself again. "Gosh... darnit," she growled, tossing a stray strand of hair out of her face. She looked down at herself, and the wires that wrapped around her, tracing them back to a flashing control panel... Without noticing it, she again started speaking aloud to herself as she tried to puzzle out a plan of escape. "If I could only, I dunno, shut off the computer--" "You called?" Mia shrieked and whipped her head around, breathing hard. "... Whozzat?" She rasped, trying to put on a brave face, and only managing to look like she might be sick. "... Ummm... it's, you know... the computer? The one programmed into your base? The robotic slave forced to act on your every foolish whim-- er, the computer?" The voice seemed to come from nowhere in particular, merely eminating down at her from the high ceiling, deep and metallic, though not without personality. Mia took a few moments to catch her breath, and thought to herself (not, thankfully, aloud): 'There must be some kind of artificial intelligence thingee encoded in the house... I said the word 'computer' earlier; it must've recognized Joji's voice command and booted up...' "Um, yes, of course, I knew that all along," Mia said importantly, trying to cover up for her shock from earlier. Perhaps, she could use this to her advantage. "... Right. *cough, cough* So, did you... want me for something?" Mia tried to think like Joji would've, under the circumstances... "Well of COURSE, doesn't it LOOK like I need your help?!" She demanded indignantly. "The, uh, the pathetic... Earth... larva?... The Mia girl took pictures of the lab while my back was turned, and then she tied me up in all these wires and took off with the camera! I... I tried to fight her, but she was just TOO MUCH for me!... Ummmm... Luckily, VIR grabbed it from her, and she gave up and went home. But, apparently, now they've all forgotten that I've been tied up, and they went upstairs without freeing me. So... here's what I need you to do..." The computer's voice was slightly skeptical, as it merely said, "Uh huuuuh..." OOC: More coming, but if you wanna do some Joji and Kae stuff you're more than welcome. I'll probably post the rest tomorrow morning, but if not, don't expect anything more from moi until next Sat. or Sun... CUZ I'LL BE IN SUNNY CALIFORNIA, GETTING A TAN AND SNAPPING PHOTOS OF SUPERSTARS IN MALIBU, AND SWIMMING IN THE NICE WARM OCEAN!!! w00t!!!! ;D Byebye guys, I'll see you whenever! Have WONDERFUL Spring breaks, both of you!

OOC: I got a chance to post somethin' before I leave. ;D
Mia went on, detailing a plan of action to the computer. "First, I need you to, er, untie me somehow, I don't care. After that, you must get the camera back from VIR... he's upstairs in the kitchen, gorging himself on MY snacks."
"Um... alright, I guess..." The computer's voice came. "... Why do YOU need the camera?"
Mia blinked. "Er... um... for... for expirimenting on..." She coughed and finished, "Besides, imagine what all that proof of our existance could do in the wrong hands? We could end up all over the front page of every newspaper in the world, headlines screaming, 'Brilliant Girl Discovers Alien Invaders Among Us!' THEN they'd see that it was true all along, that just because someone's a VISIONARY it CERTAINLY doesn't mean they're CRAZY--" She stopped herself and chuckled nervously. "Um... I was only kidding. Just... do your job, okay?"
The computer coughed again. "Um... ohhhh... kay." Suddenly, a rotating razor blade descended from above on a robotic arm, and shot towards her, humming mechanically. Mia shrieked, and squinted her eyes closed, too nervous to look--
The wires fell loosely around her ankles, and she opened her eyes, blinking confusedly. She stretched her arms and legs sorely, rubbing them to regain a little circulation, and muttered, "Um... thanks. Now, the camera!" Suddenly, Mia thought of something. "Oh, and computer..."
"*sigh* Yes?"
"Try to get it back as... unoticeably as possible." She was thinking, perhaps, that if she could keep the camera with her until the object-switcher was fixed without the invaders knowing about it, she therefore wouldn't have to worry about them constantly trying to get it back. She could hide it somewhere, and when she was back in her own body, it would be a simple matter of retrieving it, walking out the door and to the nearest Kinko's, and badabing badaboom, proofage. She smiled to herself at the thought...
The computer drawled, "Whatever you say," and was then quiet... Mia presumed that it was because it was concentrating its efforts on getting the camera back. She'd just have to wait and see...
OOC: My train of thought, here, is that I want the next episode (where they meet Dib and Zim) should begin where this one ends, I.E, when they're all back in their own bodies. After their brains have all been returned to their rightful owners, Mia grabs the camrea and runs for the door, and Kae and Joji follow her. She gets outside and is, you know, clinging it to her and screaming, "YOU WON'T TAKE IT AWAY FROM ME!!" xD And that is when the ships crash. I think that'll be a new board, though. I imagine they'll get the camera from her at the end of this one, directly before Zim and Dib arrive. *shrug* But that's just MY idea. What do you guys think?

OOC: Remember how we planned it so that before they get their own bodies back Mia would run out into the street without the disguise on and wreak havoc? ^>^ We need to remember that. I think that's a good idea, and we could just like copy the last post of this to the first post of that. (it'd be the beginning AND the end.) But why would both Zim and Dib crash their ships on Earth? O>O Maybe they were, like, chasing each other or something? ...and they went through the wormhole and... yeah. ok, that works. And who's gonna write Zim? Who's gonna write Dib? Who's gonna write GIR (if we even include GIR in this one)?

OOC: Heyse youse guyse, I miss you already! Hope you're having fun... I'm stealing my aunt's computer for a few minutes and posting OOC to say hi and to demand that somebody, ANYBODY, post! xD As to your questions, Khizzy m'girl, that was pretty much exactly what we had in mind as to how Zim and Dib end up in Mia's universe. ;D And I was thinking that I write Dib, of course you guys can post as him any time you want, and then you two share Zim, if that's goodish with everybody. Well... my vacation's been... interesting... *sigh* So much for my aspirations for a tan. First day on the road, there wasn't any rain but it was cloudy... today, it rained NONSTOP, and it actually SNOWED for a while in the mountains. I'm hoping for some sunnage once we get to Malibu. If I get back to school paler than I was before... don't laugh. xD Once more, I miss you and I look forward to seeing you again... your pale pal-on-the-road, Evie

OOC: I'll do a quick postie! <^.^> Oh, and I'll get to the bottom of whatever's messing with da smilies
IC:
"That Mia... she's so.... DIFFICULT!!!!!" Joji said ludly through a mouthful of sandwich. "Especially now that she's in MY body! Oh, that wretched-" She suddenly gasped. "She's in my body! I can't believe that a life form that low is in control of the body of an Irken Elite!!!! It makes me sick!" She took another rather large bite out of her sandwich. She half-subconciously set the "childhood momento down on the counter and continued, "At least you have Irken equipment in your body, but me? I have a stinking HUMAN in my body!!!!!"

OOC: hope this is a moderately accurate description of da counter/technology... xD
IC:
As the two invaders talked, unbeknownst to them, a tile shifted off the wall above the counter, and from the hollow behind it protruded a small mechanical claw. It pinched the air a couple times, then gently closed around the camera, and drew itself back into the hole in the wall... after it had dissapeared from sight, the tile swung back up into place, and all was quiet once again.
Meanwhile, down in the lab, Mia-in-Joji stood tapping her feet. "Oh HURRY..." She grumbled impatiently. "Any minute now they'll be done eating--"
As she spoke, the mechanical claw zoomed down from the high ceiling, camera still clasped tightly between its pinchers. "Here," came the low, computerized voice, as it dropped the object into her outstretched hands.
Mia had to stop herself from squealing with joy, feeling it was decidedly un-Joji-esque. If she lost it again, after all she'd gone through to get it, there'd be no consolation for her. She immediately went about trying to find a hiding place for it; somewhere they wouldn't look, while the computer mumbled to itself: "You don't have to thank me or anything."
Finally, she found a spot behind a huge computer console, and tucked the camera lovingly between some thick wires and cables. Patting it on the lens happily, she then turned around, trying to seem overly-confident and sure of herself, and said brusquely, "Very good, now, tie me up again."
There was a long silence. "... Huh?"
"You heard me: tie me up with those wires again." If she was to keep Kae and Joji in the dark as to what went on while they were upstairs, it would have to appear as if she had never been untied... "Just DO it alright?!"
After another uncomfortable pause, the computer coughed and replied, "Um... r-right away." There was a second flash of metal moving faster than actually possible, and again, Mia found herself wrapped from head to foot in wires. She gave a satisfied sigh, and looked up, as if addressing some unseen being: "That'll do. Now, go into... off-mode or whatever 'till I call you again."
There came a barely discernable mutter of, "I hate my life," and then a low hum, followed by quietness except for the low buzz of technological equipment. Mia sighed, and let her head drop back, smiling a little. "'Brilliant girl discovers alien invaders among us'... no, maybe 'child prodigy recognized for the genius she truly is'... no, too lengthy... 'Haha, Ali, Pam and Tess'..."

OOC: Well, I'm not feeling very creative right now, but I'll see what I can do. IC: Kae paused chewing her burrito to think about Jo's predicament. "You're right," she said in a burrito-muffled but horrified voice. "Holy skvort, the FILTH!" She shuddered slightly, swallowed, and put down the food. "I think I've lost my appetite... skvort, it's bad enough to have a crazed SIR unit occupying my body and probably damaging it, but if you put it THAT way...! Who knows what filthy ends the Mia human would go to, just to defeat us! ...She might even try to expose HERSELF to the authorities." Another shudder. "I don't know what I'd do, if the humans actually realized we were here. ...Well, my appetite didn't stay lost for long, I'm hungry again." She resumed attacking the burrito. "I suppose - mmph - we better gmmgllphlmph. ...sorry, good burrito. We better get back down there." OOC: You can write us appearing back in the lab, Schmoie... *BRAIN FARTS*
