Let's go sunning
[Whatever solemnity Diamond had managed to affect in Atroma's last broadcast, it's all gone now. After the little jingle announces her presence, her voice rings out from every speaker with bright exuberance.]
Good morning, dear passengers! It looks like you're all enjoying summer as much as we are, hmm? All that beautiful weather, and... goodness... your summer outfits have kept us all talking. Ratings have been quite good.
[A sigh that definitely sounds on the dreamy, pleased side of things.]
As far as the Shuffle goes, it seems that faces are coming and going at a lazy summertime pace. We've lost one captain this week, but Captain Terran is taking over the helm.
And since there is nothing else to report-- [Because why would she comment on any of the serious topics going on] --it's time for a little fan mail! With children all home from school, summer is our busiest time for letters.
[To prove that there is a letter to read, the sound of unfolding paper crinkles somewhere very close to the microphone.]
"Dear Drift Fleet, I love the show! My favorite ships are the Bishop and the Golden! I hope someone from those crews win at the end. I wanted to know, if the ships were people, what would each one be like? Which ones would get along and which ones would fight? Who would have crushes on each other?"
--Goodness! What a fascinating question. This sounds like one for you to answer, dear passengers. Please, tell us your thoughts!
Remember, the worlds are watching!
[And with that, the signal goes quiet, but the line is left open. Sounds like they're waiting for a response.]

And of course, maybe you're right. Maybe it is for different reasons. [He sincerely effing doubts it, but what the fuck ever damn pony.]

[Except Cheese can hold a grudge forever. Just like he did with that one-nostriled hermaphrodite who stole his lucky snorkel. HE NEVER FORGETS.]
Hiro and Tadashi do build lots of robots. It's probably that.

[ Yeaaaah he ain't fond of this pony either. BUT WHATEVER! Just smile and make nice until he goes away. ]
Yes, that's right. It could be that. And they might like having a captain that's close to their age!
Video;
Uh...huh. Sure. Could be that. Why not.
Video;
Mm!
[Please go away]

Later.
[He gives one more squinty eyed stare, before turning off the feed.]

[ He shuts off his own feed before the guy has a chance to come back. What a pain in the ass. ]
