Who: Suzie, Newt, and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide!
Action: For the Marsiva!
When: Friday, December 4!

PRE-POST ACTION:

[so here’s Newt. Newt is this bitty 5’ 7” guy who looks way scarier than he actually is because of some intense Heath-Ledger-Joker!facial scars. Unfortunately, upon awakening, Newt did so in a way that was so violent, it knocked his communicator off and to the ground. So now, after discovering that he is no longer in post-apocalyptic earth but rather IN SPACE and also his other half/drift partner/boyfriend????/who knows is not currently in the same area as him, is now trying to figure out how he can communicate perhaps with someone outside this deck-area-thing??? He doesn’t know what it is. He doesn’t particularly care. He’s just interested in finding Hermann. So after being unable to find his cell phone, he’s going to set eyes on the next person who has any sort of communication device and make a beeline for them]

[As it happens, “the next person in question” is one Suzie Quatro, who has been spending her long week on the Marsiva doing everything she can to keep from being horrendously bored, and who has at this moment decided to go about precisely that by working on a very serious and absolutely vital pursuit: getting really good at emojis.]

[any other time, Newt might’ve considered this a worthy pursuit. Emojis are, after all, an essential part of human communication (also, they annoy Hermann a lot.) Currently, though, he’s a bit too focused on previous goals to even wonder what she’s doing. So he’s going to peer over her shoulder at the device, inviting himself right into her space hi Suzie]

Hey, so is that some sort of communication device that broadcasts to a whole network of people?

[And predictably, Suzie practically jumps out of her skin, having been distracted by her very serious emoji work and consequently not expecting someone to be SUDDENLY RIGHT THERE HOLY SHIT HELLO.]

Ahh!

[And in her surprise, she proceeds to fumble the aforementioned communication device right onto the floor like a pro.]

[Newt can’t help but jolt as Suzie does, letting out a yelp himself and startling back half a step. It’s reflex, mostly, but once he realizes there actually isn’t a threat, he does notice the comm on the ground. At which point he stoops to grab it and starts fiddling with it. Unfortunately, that means the first couple lines of Suzie’s emojis get posted before he manages to flip the video on…]

FLEETWIDE VIDEO:

[—except then suddenly VIDEO and hi here is Newt’s face peering into the camera]

Hello—is this thing working? Hey, if this is on, I’m looking for Hermann Gottlieb. Hermann, if you’re here—

H-Hey! Stop it, give that back! You can’t just — that’s not yours, I was using that! Give it back!

[Uh-oh. Sounds like someone offscreen is not altogether happy about having her serious business interrupted. Or her comm stolen, for that matter.]

[Newt’s scowling, not looking up from the com as he turns his back on Suzie, a probably futile effort to keep the comm in his hands that much longer]

Just hold on a minute, lady! This is important, jeez. [totally dismissive omg Newt no]

That doesn’t mean you can just take things that don’t belong to you! Smettila!

[And the video proceeds to shake all over the place as what is presumably a juvenile-grade scuffle ensues, and somewhere in there the video proceeds to switch off.]

[OOC: As evidenced by the...everything, this is a joint post between Newt and Suzie! Feel free to happen upon them kindergarten-slapfighting over Suzie's comm if you're on the Marsiva, OR respond to them via the comms! Please note that for the moment, though responses may come from either of our journals, ICly they will all be from Suzie's ID, since it's her comm being used (and bickered over!). o/]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I'm so sorry, it's hard to have a proper conver—

[Ugh ugh ugh, this is so ridiculous, why is this happening.]

Would you mind very much if I called you back after this strange guy leaves me alone?

[To her credit, she sounds legitimately desperate here — not a blow-off by any means so much as just too frazzled to try to do so many things at once. Maybe in a quarter of an hour she'll actually be able to...like. Wind down and talk. Maybe.]

[hey, that seems more than fair to him. this was weird before it started.]

Oh, yeah. You take your time, I'm not going anywhere.

[And, because we are apparently running the full gamut on communication types today, when the Newtpocalypse eventually comes to a conclusion and she's got her comm back, she wanders over to find a quiet place to wind down and curls up with it, noticing that Robin had initially started out with text and deciding it'd be polite to answer with it, now that she's finally free to...do that.]

Hello again, I'm so sorry about that. My name is Suzie, is this Robin like the bird??

[what a roller coaster... but just like he said, he doesn't go anywhere, and he's free to text her back pretty soon after she finds her chance to actually talk with him.]

Yep, you found me. (￣▽￣)ノ I'm sorry about earlier too, I didn't realize you were quite so embroiled in newcomer chaos, there.

I didn't expect to be either!! I just wanted to practice some of the faces that Jojo showed me... p(´⌒｀｡q)

But I think that guy will leave me alone now, at least. ┬┴┬┴┤( ͡°⌒├┬┴┬┴

Oh, you know Jojo? That's good! Man, he showed you some fun cute faces... ( ゜○゜) Good about that guy, too! Do you think he's a huge weirdo, or was he just kind of jittery and panicky and stuff?

Do YOU know Jojo?? And Caesar too??? We're all from the same place, we were friends before I got here! （ʃƪ＾3＾) ｡ﾟ+.✧♡

I don't know about the guy though...his face was pretty scary!! I know that's a little rude but it's not normal to have scars all over your face like that!!

YEAH! I don't know Jojo very well yet, but Caesar and I have gotten to be good friends... ( ˘ ³˘)♥ I think any friend of his could be a friend of mine! You're much less rude, too. Really? It's pretty normal where I'm from, but I guess I come from kind of a rough place. Fighting ladies for their communicators, though, that's uncalled for.

[You get one point for not saying Cici, minus one for that . . . face thing.]

I am not rude.

[Robin he wants to fight this guy but he can't. Whines.]

[oh. he was hoping he'd see that.]

No you're pretty rude. ♥(ˆ⌣ˆԅ)

[Why . . . stop.]

What did I do that was rude.

You're criminally cute! (♡´艸`)

[can't stop won't stop]

That's not the same as being rude.

[he's not denying it.....]

Well, since you have such a nice girl vouching for you, I'll let you off the hook. Also, unrelated-- look, this one has hands! ☚(ﾟヮﾟ☚)

Why are you people so obsessed with those faces.

That's good too! I'm happy to meet one of Caesar's friends!! ＼（＾▽＾）／

I doooooon't knoooooow if we can be friends if you're going to call him rude though...

[PICTURED: REALLY OVERT STANNING FOR HER BOYS]

Whaaat? I can't even tease him? ●︿●

[aw, he's tickled. and kind of a sucker.]

Oh, no, teasing is fine! σ(≧ε≦ｏ)

Just so long as you know he's really a perfect gentleman~~ （ʃƪ＾3＾) ｡ﾟ+.✧♡

Oh! I gotcha... Don't worry, I haven't known him long, but I've already seen that he's a chivalrous and kind-hearted person. And I don't mean that sarcastically or anything, since it's kind of hard to tell with text sometimes.

[oh but don't let him keep this a serious, heartfelt moment:]

Also, does this one look like a bird to you?: ⋛⋋( ‘◇’)⋌⋚ Y/N

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[not pictured: suzie just kind of squinting at it for a few minutes]

...OH!!! I SEE IT those are the wings!!!

OH GOOD, okay. I'm trying to figure out a good bird one but it's harder than it looks...

Can you put him in a nest and make him sing??

(༽ ⋛⋋( ‘◇’)⋌⋚ -♪♫♩ ༼)

Edited 2015-12-09 19:29 (UTC)

Hey, that's even better! It kind of looks like a phone wire, but birds perch on those too... _TT ⋛⋋( ‘◇’)⋌⋚ -♪♫♩ _TT Though... I think I like yours more, still...
