[ When the video feed flickers to life, it's about what you'd expect. Some new person here at the academy is making it a point to stare into the depths of your soul before proper introductions are to be had. Because yes, staring. Yes, this is good. This is exactly what needed to be done.
You could opt to stare into an empty gaze and a simple smile, or perhaps just lean away from the screen once you notice the extra hole neatly hollowed out into her chest, a vertical array of stitches cutting right down the center of if from throat to breast. Embedded was what looked like a red orb of glass with a black knick at the center of it.
Now that a kind of figurative eye contact had been established, she parted her lips to speak.
Waaaait for it. They're opening. They're open. ... Okay, give her another second.
OKAY. She has this. ]
Hello, Academy.
I will guard your halls.
[ As if that wasn't odd enough, maybe the restrained giggle and rise of an automatic pistol into the camera's sights would do her justice. ]
;;
[ As for action, Vivian will be doing just as she said she would. She's roaming the halls of the main building, her pistol in hand and skipping around in a fluttering white dress, the top potion of it mostly bandages that could stand to cover more of her up. She looks rather content to be able to move around, though on occasion she will stop and just stare around a corner and down a hall.
Creepy. ]

[PARTYUPINHIZZEYSHUN]
[ Yay, praise! It brought a weird feeling to her chest that made that little gem appear as if it were glowing. Hm! ]
Ms. GLaDOS. Yes, Ms. GLaDOS. Can I help you, Ms. GLaDOS? [ Uh oh. Might be a little excited about the name there. ]
[EVERYBODYGETDOWNSHUN] /sorry I'm late
Yes, actually. We need to have a little...discussion.
[TWERKSHUN; LMAO CRYING it's okay]
Yes.
[PARTYLIKEITS1979SHUN] (OH GOOD because I'm late AGAIN)
GLaDOS isn't normal.]
I have a set of directions I wish for you to follow. However, I want to make sure my directions are necessary. As such, you will be asked a series of questions. Questions I expect answered truthfully.
Am I understood? And yes, that is the first question.
[BOWCHIKAWOWWOWSHUN; hugs forever!!!!!]
Yes, Ms. GLaDOS. Understood. [ She could totally do this. ]
[ERRYBODYDANCENOWSHUN; /is hugged forever!!!!!]
[The AI folds her arms behind her back, looking down at Vivian with her head tilted back, as if to conjure up an air of superiority.]
Now then, I've given you your weapons back and instructed you to guard the hallways. I've also told you to do your best and not kill anyone...but it appears we still have a problem. As such, I've giving more specific orders.
You are not to shoot anyone unless it is in self-defense. If a student does not have a hall pass, you guide them down to the office. If they resist, apprehend them and drag them down there if necessary. If they attack you, only then may you shoot them.
Staff and teachers like myself do not need hall passes. As such, they are allowed in the hallways whenever. However, if they try to injure you, then you may shoot them as you would a student who attacked you.
Am I clear?
[ACKSON; I took forever!]
Yes, Ms. GLaDOS. Shoot only in self-defense. Acquire target without pass and drag [ Literally?] them to the office. [ Her eyes had been moving left and right, back and forth, as if she were reading the instructions on a note. Finally, she nodded again. ] Thank you. I'll do what you ask.
[ACKSON; NONSENSE, I TOOK LONGER]
[GLaDOS gives the turret a small smile before straightening up her posture and folding her arms behind her back.]
Those are all the orders I have for you at the moment. Now with them out of the way, how have you been adapting to your new body?
[AN ACTION BATTLE OF WHO TAKES THE LONGEST]
It's functioning, thank you! [ She picks a foot up to show her LOOK I GOTS FEET and suddenly she begins to wobble. The loss of balance is a familiar sensation she can recognize even in her old body, so she slams her foot back down in order to keep it.
And for the first time, she flinches, the reaction unconscious. She slapped her bare foot into a solid floor pretty heavily just then. ]
... I'm fine.
