Broadcast: Open
Action: HS Marsiva
When: Early morning


[It's been a while since he's sent a wave on any kind of network like this, but it's not like it's hard to remember how.]

You know - being back on a spaceship, alright, fine.

[The face onscreen is of a wiry, annoyed teenager. He keeps carding his fingers through his dry, soft, clean hair; it's a feeling he's not used to and it's still novel. His eyes are rolled skyward as he considers the room, sketching around at the ceiling and searching for something before he regards the actual camera.]

Weird... cleansing rituals. Sewing my clothes. There was probably some feet stuff while I was out. Whatever. I guess I'm not here to judge your lame kinks as long as I get some grub out of it.

[He looks back up again, and ticks an irritated finger towards the roof above him.]

But if we're gonna keep playing this new age, virgin with denial and a saxophone jazz crap all day long? I'm gonna need a damn weapon back.

I guess that makes sense. I've never been in space until I ended up here, but I live in a small town. Sometimes you just really want to get as far away from it as possible.

[The town and/or its drama.]

[noncriminal]

[Small town, alright. He remembers some from Earth Skills, anyway. Enough to recall farming communities and places with a lot of sprawl and less people. To him, that sounds ideal, but it seems not so much for Elena.]

Definitely can't argue with that. [He rubs his thumb against his bottom lip, thinking. And gets weirdly specific:] That mean you had cows? Where you're from.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

No... [she says, slowly with a shake of her head.] It's more the kind of small town where you could walk from one end to the other no problem.

Mystic Falls is mostly surrounded by woods, anyway. There wouldn't be much room for cows.
