Who: Fleet-wide
Broadcast: Video
Action: On First Breath
When: Now/Evening

[ Nova pops up on the screen. Her hair is down and she looks... moderately rested. Not ideal but not like a zombie-girl. Her voice sounds tired, though, and she's nervous about being on-screen. It doesn't really matter how in-the-spotlight she's been, it never really gets easier for her ]

Hey. I'm still getting used to all of this. And I thought, I don't know, that I'd try to get to know people more. It helped at the last place. So... if you could have someone here that you miss, who would it be? I'll go first: it'd be my sister, Prim.

Mm, I'm not sure I'd want to bring anyone here. It's not that I don't miss them, it just wouldn't be fair to them.

[takeabow]

Really? Seems like a step up to me.

[ino]

[ This is an easy one. ]

My dad.

[takeabow]

Why?

I mean, besides the fact he's your dad.

[notkittenaround]

A choice difficult to make. There are many I wish to see again, but many who must remain where they stand. Mayhaps I would bring the people of Takshaka.

Video;

[takeabow]

Who are they?

[princessia]

...I miss Jude and Milla. I wish they were here.

[ She can't pick one. ]

Re: video;

[takeabow]

What are they like?

[dancingmd]

[Months ago, in the beginning, this would have been easy to answer: Wesley. But now, after what happened with Bashir... she's not sure she wants to go through that again, especially not with someone she loves.]

I'm afraid don't really know how to answer that question anymore.

[takeabow]

Oh. Sorry. I guess it's kind of personal.

[It takes Nightingale a bit to decide to respond, but... Well, she's homesick as fuck. Maybe talking about it will help.]

My best friend from home, Yura. She'd love this place.

[There's a short pause.]

For a few days, then she'd get bored and beat the shit out of the Atroma herself somehow.

[takeabow]

Big personality, huh?

[stefanged]

I miss my little sister too, but... I don't think I'd want to bring her here.

[Big brothers are supposed to want the best for them, right? Stefan figures, the further Olette's from him, the better. Jokingly, as if it's the biggest reason to say no to her:] Olette would go crazy without a proper kitchen.

[takeabow]

Yeah? She likes to cook?

[gunslinger]

[ Nobody can get stage fright in front of this little guy, can they? He's not even sitting up properly, he's lying on his bed with his feet against the wall, holding the communicator up above. So chill. ]

Just one person? Man, that's tough.

video;

[takeabow]

It's not meant to be difficult. You can choose more than one.

[video]

[summerschild]

I would like very much to see my mother, or my father. But any of my brothers or sisters would be...

[He can't even come up with a word. It would be the most amazing thing ever. It would be the best day of his life.]

[video]

[takeabow]

I hope you get that chance.

text

[theboogieman]

[he uses text, because he's really bad at this whole "talking to people" thing. even if he wasn't, he'd still be dodgy about the subject anyway...]

think it's better to have them here instead of home?

Re: text

[takeabow]

[ replies immediately ]

Yes.

Action

[kill_switch]

[She sees the video pop up on her feed, and decides to address it in person. She was more comfortable talking to Nova than some of the other fleet residents, otherwise this wouldn't have even come up. She knocks lightly on her door.]

Nova? It's Furiosa. You have a moment?

Action

[takeabow]

[ she's startled by the door— her heart rate goes up and her eyes dilate a bit but she can compose herself enough to reply ]

Um. Sure.

Video

[notmutantbutmiracle]

[Missing a sibling... Wanda could relate to that.]

My brother, Pietro.

Video

[takeabow]

What's he like?

Video

[save_the_souls]

[He considers this question for a good bit. Obviously, the first names that popped in his mind were family- his father, Teresa. But he dismissed the thought. They were dead and Allen was very careful not to wish for the dead to return. So that left his living friends. Ino, Crowley and Jr. were all already here...maybe one of his comrades? Well, Lenalee would like to be away from the war, but she'd miss her brother. And Komui was way too dangerous to bring along with her. Stuck with his inventions while in space? Holy hell.]

[Finally, he narrows it down]

Lavi, my comrade. I think he'd enjoy something like this more than my other friends.

Video

[takeabow]

Yeah? What's he like?

[video]

[forsometimenow]

Rodney, my boyfriend.

[Jennifer says this without hesitation or much thinking, and she pauses before going on:]

I miss my friends, too, don't get me wrong- they were like a family to me, I felt like I belonged with them when I'd never felt that way before. But Rodney... he makes me feel like I'm so special.

[video]

[takeabow]

Yeah... I think I can sympathize. A little.

voice;

[redactions]

Prob'ly not someone brought here, but if I could call a friend from here anytime I wanted, I have one.

voice;

[takeabow]

Yeah?

video;

[geonomy]

[Mmm. Kind of a downer question, but a valid one, and probably one that's on everyone's minds, too.]

Haha, well. The first person that comes to mind probably wouldn't like it very much out here, so I'd rather he stay back home.

Probably my mentor, Solomon Starbuck. He loves space, and he's actually been out there before. Or if not him, then my director, Yuri Cosmos. His passion for space is almost as huge as mine is!

video;

[takeabow]

This place is better than where I'm from, pretty sure.

video

[tobeajedi]

My mom. I mean, she wouldn't like getting kidnapped for a holoshow any more than I did, but... [It's a little naive to say she'd know what to do because while Vima feels that, she knows her mother has uncertainties like everyone else. Still, Nomi Sunrider is a Jedi Master, and that counts for a lot.] It'd be reassuring to have her around.

video

[takeabow]

Yeah, I think we can assume no one likes to be kidnapped.
