three ☀ video / optional action
Who: Mal
Broadcast: Fleetwide!
Action: On the Caprine if anyone desires it! I'm flexible.
When: 6/20.
[As in her first broadcast, Mal can be found tinkering around in the engine room, elbows-deep in something interesting and greasy. This time, though, she seems pensive, deep in thought, perhaps about Deep Subjects and Philosophies.]
[She is, in fact, thinking about something entirely different.]
[When she speaks, it's in tones of airy contemplation, meant to disguise the fact that part of her thinks this is a terrible idea.]
Here is an interesting thing: vampires, for all their reputation for seduction, really aren't that good at it, at least where I come from. When you're always hungry, you mostly rely on people leaving windows open at the right time and then being a bit woozy from blood loss. For the really old ones, the ones who can barely stand without crumbling to dust and really hate sunshine, that's the only way they can eat, and if they tried to seduce anyone their arm would probably fall off.
[She twists at a mysterious innard of the ship with a wrench, tongue in her cheek.]
We've had enough excitement for a while, I think, so why not something boring instead: tell me about romance in your world. Describe the sorts of flowers you like to kill for love. Rate yourself on a scale of one to ten, complete dunce to Casanunda, if you like.
Actually, everyone should have to do that. That's compulsory. I will genteelly admit that I am a nine. [Liar.]

They're more an example, really. If a person can start a courtship--or whatever you young people are calling it nowadays--with a gift of those and still end up happily married, there's only so many ways you could cock this up.
[ What a great verb choice. ]
no subject
[However. She likes this example, and will keep it for future use.]
I also don't think I was talking about marriage, though.
no subject
[ According to the five seconds he was nobility, yes. ]
So does marriage, come to think of it.
no subject
I liked the bit about happiness, though.
no subject
Oh, and don't force a hapless bystander* to deal with them by proxy, either. Or invite them anywhere and refuse to speak to them.
[* Hawke**
** who was not a hapless bystander at all; he was in fact whatever is thedas's equivalent of maid of honor when said wedding occurred ]
no subject
Why would I do either of those things?
no subject
[ He loev u Aveline. ]
Successful ineptitude, though!
