first ❆ video

Who: weiss schnee and you?!
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: the marsiva
When: today

[ why hello there, fleetians. this broadcast is brought to you by the letter W, as in WHY THIS WHY ME. which is, coincidentally enough, one of the many thoughts buzzing through weiss' mind ever since she'd woken up to find herself in space. though she supposes after a "digital" space, regular space shouldn't be too difficult to adjust to. boy, is she trying.

she might actually look familiar to some of you — there had definitely been an accidental broadcast or two of her as she fumbled through her first few hours on marsiva — mostly boring stuff like meticulously combing through any and all information she could find on her communicator (and taking an extensive amount of notes on them), stuffing her face into a pillow and screaming at the top of her lungs, and staring into a mirror and giving herself a pep talk in an attempt to Get a Grip.

apparently the Grip has been Gotten (or maybe she just grew impatient), for now she's making her first broadcast, a pleasant smile plastered on her face. ]


Good ev— [ she pauses, glancing briefly to the side; how does one even tell time in space.... ] — Greetings. [ her smile becomes just a touch more strained. ]

My name is Weiss Schnee. As the newest Communications Officer of the S.S. Three Twins, I thought it was prudent to introduce myself to the rest of the ship. I can't say I have much experience in the area of... space pioneering — [ or reality tv star, for that matter, but she's pointedly choosing to Ignore that bit of the deal thankyouverymuch ] — but when it comes to diplomacy and intermediation, I have an extensive background.

[ a brief pause. shoot, she's already forgotten her place. best to just wrap this up..! ]

It's a pleasure to make all your acquaintances. I look forward to working with you all.

[ another pause, and then she suddenly remembers—! ]

Oh, and if anyone might know where I can get some binders, I'd really appreciate the tip.

[ from the looks of it, she'll probably be needing more than one... ]

[ BRISTLES BACK!! Oh my god Elecman you are (technically) an adult even if your emotional development is somewhat...weird....please chill

Of course Elecman will Not Chill. He just makes another dismissive huff.
] Not my concern. Do what you want.

...Proper authorities? Do they have some kind of paper tax where you're from? [ WHAT DO THEY MAKE PAPER OUT OF WHERE YOU COME FROM ]

Great. I'm glad we're in agreement on that one. [ IS THAT A CHALLENGE. HE WILL OUT-TSUN YOU IF HE WANTS!!

you can practically visualise the eyerolling here...
]

Yeah, I guess you can try, but I don't think Atroma's going to give you binders. Atroma's not useful in a practical way. [ Or useful at all. He's inclined to be mistrustful of someone who shoves him in a physical body and jams an augment directly into what passes for his brain and won't ask for anything if he can possibly help it. ]

Guess so. [ YOU'LL HAVE TO FIGHT HIM FOR IT!! ]

Hey, you got put on a spaceship for the entertainment of viewers. We're basically a live broadcast all the time. So if you expected our grand authority to be any use, you're out of luck.

Whatever you say. [ Elecman is a RESPONSIBLE ADULT]

You sound like you're used to this kind of thing.

I know when to fold against someone so stubborn. [ No you don't.....Elecman is just plotting for a better time.

He's a responsible adult.
]

Huh, is that so? That's pretty tough. [ ...He actually sounds genuine about it. ] At least it seems to be better this time. [ Even if it is reality tv. ]

Nah, I'm pretty sure that means stubborn. [ elecman please

The more he talks to this girl, the more he's reminded of Ann...It's kind of nostalgic.
]

I guess being a spectacle's better than your whole world being gone. [ It's a little scary to think about, but he's not going to say that...(Even though it kind of happened, a bit). ] Not by much, but it's a step up.

Sure. [ heh heh. ]

It's kind of troublesome, but there's probably worse things. Hopefully everything's running along fine back home, though. [ Jack has his friends to keep him in line for now....it's fine...probably ]
