Who: Hinata
Broadcast: Video
Action: Marsiva; Calibration Hallway
When: 10/26, before bedtime.

[the video flicks on, and hinata looks a little uneasy.]

... I know it's late, and we're supposed to go to sleep soon... I'm really restless. So, I'm gonna ask a question, I guess.

What do you guys like to do for fun? Back on our ships, or back home... Everybody keeps telling me there are things to do other than play volleyball, so give me some suggestions!

[ oh, here's someone who looks friendly. there's been a bit of time since nanako woke up and she's a little panicked and a lot confused, but this isn't the weird world inside the tv (no gilded hallways and dark shadows waiting to grab her) and everyone around her looks just as confused, so that helps to ease some of the panic.

she musters the courage to reply, maybe if they start talking, she'll be able to ask how to get home. ]

Um... [ oh, this is kind of scary, isn't it? it's okay, she thinks. it's just like talking on the phone! she takes a quick breath before continuing. ] I usually watched TV with Big Bro at home, but sometimes him and his friends invite me to Junes [ pronounced "ju-nehs" ] and we get lunch together.

[oh my gOD SHE'S NATSU-SIZED SOMEONE HELP HINATA]

Ooooh! Is that a department store?

[ yes, good, let's talk about junes and how great it is and not... about weird space kidnappings. nanako nods, her first smile lighting up her face since she arrived. ]

Yeah! It's really big and they have all kinds of things there. There's even a small playground on the roof!

On the roof! That's awesome! I bet you could see forever from up there!

Uh-huh! You can see everything! Especially when it's sunny. Sometimes, if I try hard enough, I think I can see the city from there too!

Does it feel like you're flying when you're on the swingset?

[priorities]

[ nodding enthusiastically, ]

It does, it does! I can't get as high when I'm doing it myself, but whenever Big Bro is with me, he pushes me super high!

[ kageyama doesn't know whether he's relieved or annoyed to see hinata's face. maybe a little of both. being kidnapped and in space has made him anxious, and also sort of mad, so seeing a familiar face is definitely a good thing, even if it's hinata. relief wins over annoyance in the end, especially when hinata looks a little upset himself. he's no sugawara-san when it comes to this, but he can try and be comforting, even if he's the one who should be nervous and uneasy. which he's not. it's totally just an example.

relaxing back in his bunk-- as much as he can-- he decides to respond with audio rather than video. it's not like hinata needs to see his face or anything. ]

... You practice more. What else? [ yeah, okay, maybe the comforting thing is not his forte, especially when he decides to just say the first thing that comes to mind. ]

That's so cool! I like being in high places.

Ah! My name is Hinata Shouyou! It's nice to meet you, are you new here?

Other than that, jerk!!

[.... wait]

--KAGEYAMA!?!

[ oh my god does he have to yell right into this thing??? he holds the communicator away from his face for a moment before bringing it back. ]

Stupid, don't yell! [ says kageyama, yelling. ]

Turn the video on!!

[no he's still yelling]

Me too! It's like I'm taller than everyone!

[ it's so great. ]

It's nice to meet you too, I'm Nanako Dojima!

[ but, ah, that's right. she is new. nanako nods, and then lowers her voice as if she's trying to tell him a secret. ]

Um. I-Is... is it true we're in space?

[ of course he is. ]

Why? You know what I look like.

Just do it! I have to make sure it's you!

Ah--!

[he lowers his voice, too.]

Yeah! We get to be part of the crews for the little ships, usually, but right now, we're all on the Marsiva. What job did they give you, Nanako-chan?

Oh... um, they said I'm lab support, but I dunno if I'm old enough to work in a lab.

[ she's only seven! what is this. ]

What crew are you part of?

Who else would I be, dumbass?!

This place is weird, okay?! I just have to see!

Lab support! You're gonna be nurse! That's way cooler than what I do.

[that's kinda morbid for a seven-year-old]

I'm maintenance on the Heron!

[maintenance is a fancy word for janitor]

A nurse? [ "nurse" to nanako is still the equivalent to the nurses you'd see at school when you get a stomach ache, or if you skinned your knee. she thinks about the nurse she sees at the doctor's, the nice lady who takes her measurements and gives her a lollipop after she gets a shot, or the one who checked up on her to give her medicine back when she had to stay in the hospital for a few weeks. she's not sure how she feels about giving people shots, though. ] I didn't think I was good enough to be a nurse yet, but I'll do my best.

[ in the end, it's just taking care of people, right? she can do that. ]

The Heron? A heron is a bird, right? What's it like on the Heron? Are the people in your crew nice?

I'm philosophically opposed to fun.
