ᴏᴏ1 : ᴠɪᴅᴇᴏ
Who: James Potter (the great and magnifcent).
Broadcast: Fleetwide, from the Marsiva.
Action: Anybody on board the Marsiva!
When: Evening, 9/3.
[James is a tad bit irritated.
For one, he's in space, on a spaceship, something he didn't realize was possible until about fifteen minutes ago. Waking up in a strange location is terrifying enough, but waking up in a strange impossible location is worse. He wandered around a bit, trying to find his friends, his professors, his bloody castle.
That had all been in vain, so have one [1] James Potter, with ridiculously tousled hair, Hogwarts robes, round glasses, and a remarkably unflappable tone.]
Bit of a ridiculous stretch for a beginning of the year prank, yeah?
[He almost sounds hopeful, but James isn't stupid, and he at least has the common decency to avoid the stupid questions ("How are we not suffocating in space?" "How can I fly this thing?"), instead focusing on the completely asinine.]
I hope one of you is open to forging a letter of absence to a one Professor Minerva McGonagall. Make sure it includes that it is definitely not James Potter's fault -- quote that bit -- and that I valiantly resisted any attempted kidnappings with bravery.
[Sounds right.]

[Said in the tone of 'no shit, sherlock'.]
My spells are weak as shit without one, and none of the substitutes I've tried have worked at all.
[video]
Magic.
[MERLIN ABOVE]
You're a witch.
[YAAAS]
[video]
[Sorry, James.]
[video]
[Lightly, but James is grinning, now.]
Mages, witches, wizards -- same token, to me, but why haven't you got your staff? You don't use wands?
[FAMILIARITY]
Re: [video]
[video]
-- excellent.
[With a soft groan, letting his robes fall back into place, his lips twisting into a scowl.]
Seems they've robbed me of mine -- brilliant -- and I'll humbly disagree with you in regards to the staff, thank you.
[Wands are so much cooler.]
Re: [video]
They got you too?
[video]
[SO
annoying >:c]
I hadn't bothered to check before I got up.

At least you can cast without it. Imagine if you were a fighter or a lancer.
no subject
Yeah, imagine that.
Mind telling me if they keep that on board?
no subject
no subject
Bloody brilliant.
[Underneath his breath.]
How are we supposed to defend ourselves if something happens? Not everyone can use magic.

no subject
Pardon?
[That part had been missing in the little brain-wave "hey this is space and this is a space ship have fun!" understanding chip thingy.]
no subject
It wouldn't be the first time. We've got strong people here, so it's not like we'd make it easy on them either.
... Oh, right. Death probably won't stick here. Better get used to that, if your home is different. But that sort of thing hasn't come up yet, so maybe it won't?
no subject
How do you know it won't "stick" when it hasn't come up yet?
no subject
First of all, this is my second interdimensional hellhole. Both the last one and my home, death is temporary. Hell, I could get a spell to bring someone back to life if I could do some level grinding for a few months. The Atroma have incredible powers, at least equal to the Echoes- basically gods.
Their story is that we're here as reality TV. If they kill us before we bring in money for them equal to what it would take for them to reach across worlds to kidnap us, they'd be taking a loss, and I doubt they'd want that. Or to give away that their story is bullshit.
They have the power to and a reason to.
[And on top of that... Well, she doesn't want to share everything just yet.]
no subject
He's silent for a moment or two, digesting that.]
... but you've got no proof this universe is the same. Just a hunch.
no subject
no subject
[He'll just ask around somewhere else, then. >:c]

[It's a big deal, in his universe. They don't teach that branch of magic for a reason, except for a strongly worded 'don't do it.']
no subject
... Sometimes, people are brought here after they're dead at home. Really dead. And they're alive here.
