1 - Open as the Wasteland
Who: Nux and you!
Broadcast: Hello world!
Action: All around the Marsiva!
When: July 26
Video
[This video is either going to be very interesting or very boring to viewers, depending on who's watching. It opens on a blue eye in a very pale face, with some kind of dark makeup smudged around it. The eye tilts crazily to one side, then the other. The camera pulls back to on a second identical eye, a scarred nose and cheek -- then further still to reveal a mouth crossed from end to end with vertical scars, like skeletal teeth.
The boy -- it's definitely a boy, or really a young man -- squints at the camera, and then the image tips to the side again and jerks wildly back and forth as he bangs the communicator against the nearest surface and brings it back up to his eye with a curious sound. After a moment, he seems to give up looking for whatever it is he wants from it and puts it down, leaving the camera staring at the ceiling.]
Action
[He had done the same when he'd awoken. He'd opened his eyes on the cleanest, shiniest surface he's ever seen, and thought, chrome. Then it had hit him all at once: the rig, Capable, Rictus...
...Valhalla...?
Not like any Valhalla he's ever imagined, he'd thought when he'd sat up and taken a look around -- that was when he'd spotted the little machine with its blinking red light.
Now, he abandons it and starts exploring his surroundings closely. There's information trickling into his brain, but it's a lot to take in all at once. The room alone is a lot to take in all at once: real beds, glaring bright lights, equipment he's never seen before, the huge night sky out the window.
Eventually, he finds his way into the showers, blinking when he spots the tap. Guzzoline? Mother's Milk? He turns it and jerks back in surprise when liquid starts spraying out onto him, turning the tap off again quickly. His eyes widen when he licks his scarred lips: water. He wrenches the tap back on and turns his face up to the shower head, taking a few greedy gulps of aqua cola.
Eventually, he'll tear himself away again and resume his exploration, not seeming to care about the fact that he's soaking wet, or that the already-faded white-and-black war paint is running from his bare, scarred torso.]

...Yeah?
[Until about five minutes ago, no one but Capable had ever asked him that before, and he hadn't really been paying attention to the question when Bucky asked it. But he's somehow alive, breathing, standing, so... that seems like the right answer, he guesses. He rubs his shoulder absently, where Larry and Barry still sit.]
Are you the Organic?
no subject
I...well I am organic, if that's what you mean. I'm human. The name's Sokka.
no subject
The Organic Mechanic? For this ship?

[He's not entirely sure if it's a question or a statement -- it's like the name hits at something in the back of his mind that nods and says yes. And something else, too--]
I'm a driver. A-- pilot.
no subject
Oh, that's cool. We can always use more pilots.
no subject
[There's been a lot about this experience so far that has been confusing, jarring, overwhelming, but that is something to be happy about. His face splits into a sudden, slightly manic grin, his real teeth gleaming beneath their scar-tissue counterparts.]
They're going to give me my own ship!
no subject
Yeah! I mean, you share it with other people, but if you're a pilot, it'll be your job to fly it.
no subject
[Who even cares if there are other people? Besides, he'll need a lancer. Maybe lots of lancers. Maybe a whole war rig's worth.]

[Toph don't trash his ship, please. ]
