Who: Miah and Marhi and anyone else
Broadcast: Both parts video
Action: First part on the Marsiva!
When: July 25, backdated to before the Shuffle!

Action/video
[The camera will record a rather amusing sight on the Marsiva today, given that Miah doesn't usually sleep in full plate armor. Given the spikes and decoration on it, it takes her a full minute to extricate herself from the sheets without it catching on something or another, and then another still to actually try to free the sheets from her shield without tearing anything. Really, this would be easier without thick gauntlets on, but given that she's woken up in unfamiliar territory, she's not inclined to remove her armor. Instead, she'll just be watching the area carefully, ready to fight at a moment's notice. It won't be long before an armored boot accidentally connects with the camera, switching it off.

Just video

[This time, Miah can be found sitting and facing the camera properly, though her tail flicks around behind her anxiously. She's still in the full plate armor, though. Beside her is a slightly less armored, slightly taller woman of dark blue skin with a black and white tuxedo cat pattern to her hair, cat ears and tail. ]

... Greetings. I am Miah Lanbatal. Though I like not the idea of it, I now understand the situation, due to this 'implant'. If there is aught else I should know, I would ask that I be told. How long has this 'reality show' been going on for? And what is known of the Atroma?

Aside that, I seek my companions. A Miqo'te woman, C'Ranmaia, or barring them, an Elezen boy and Lalafellin woman, Alphinaud Levilleur and Tataru Taru. They all of them possess garb quite distinctive, so if they are here, they should be quite easy to find. Thank you for your assistance.

[ The second, blue woman abruptly leans into the camera. ]

As Miah has asked all else, I must question if there are any who know of “Teams”, “Takshaka” or the land “Kyriakos” here. If it so, answer anon. [ A belated pause as she recalls common courtesy. ] Please.

[With that, Miah’ll reach forward and, after fumbling with the communicator a bit (seriously, gauntlets make buttons hard), she'll switch the feed off.]

...Bonded meaning... romantically inclined?

[curiositykilledthecats]

Yes. In common parlance, my wife.

[onlyanapple]

Huh. Well, no, 'fraid I haven't heard that name, so chances are she's not here.

[curiositykilledthecats]

For now.

[she says it with absolute certainty, like she knows for a fact she'll turn up eventually.]

[onlyanapple]

True, that could change at any time. Especially with Atroma, they do like to up the drama.

[curiositykilledthecats]

Even without the Atroma, she is a bard. Where there are songs to be sung, she will always somehow be there.

[onlyanapple]

...How sickeningly touching. Thanks for that.

[curiositykilledthecats]

... You are welcome?

[She seems confused by that, but this guy is weird anyway, so...]

[onlyanapple]

Yeah. I'm going to write up a sarcasm guide. Or get someone else to write one up. Probably the last one.

[curiositykilledthecats]

What is your name?

[onlyanapple]

You can call my Crowley.

[curiositykilledthecats]

A pleasure, Sir Crowley.

[onlyanapple]

Likewise, I'm sure.

[curiositykilledthecats]

Is there aught else we need know?

[onlyanapple]

Don't try and goad Atroma. If you make a fuss at them, there's a good chance some...stupid shit will happen to you later down the line.

[curiositykilledthecats]

I make no habit of entertaining gods. What do you speak of?

[onlyanapple]

Atroma aren't gods, they're just- I don't know what they are, but they're not gods. They're the ones that run this gig.

[curiositykilledthecats]

They have unimaginable power possess arrogance beyond even that, and demand strange worship. If they are not gods, they are quite similar.

[onlyanapple]

Nah, I know gods, well, single one, with a capital G. They aren't that. Not even close.

[curiositykilledthecats]

... It may be different where you are from. In my home, we must slay gods ere they glut themselves of the land's aether.

You have but one?

[onlyanapple]

...


Wow yeah, that's definitely not how it goes where I'm from. That sort of thing would get you blinked out of existence. Probably so you never existed at all.

Just the one.

[curiositykilledthecats]

... We also have the Twelve, but none have power like what you describe.

[onlyanapple]

What're they, exactly? Other than the fact there's twelve of them.

[curiositykilledthecats]

... They are the Twelve. Eorzea's protective gods... Though they have never descended themselves.

[onlyanapple]

So they're still Up There or in whatever dimension they live in?
