ᴏᴏ3 : ᴛᴇxᴛ | ᴀᴄᴛɪᴏɴ

Who: Zuko [[personal profile] honorbends] and YOU.
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: On Ye Olde Ice Planet.
When: Now!

Why.

[ that is literally the only thing zuko texts, because he has stepped out onto the ice planet Hoth and is promptly regretting ever doing so. firebenders rise with the sun, and zuko is a morning person, and nothing is more claustrophobic than being on a ship with no natural light, or heat, or energy -- and being outside alone is rejuvenating for him, but --

there is so much snow.

so feel free to spot him wandering around looking furious in a scarf, stubbornly melting a small patch of snow, or perusing the markets for things to buy with money that he probably asked someone else for.

or you can hit him with snow and take advantage of the fact that he is, in fact, a firebender on what is apparently a recreation of the northern water tribe. with more salt.

this is the worst. ]

Ah... [ Ken unwraps a portion of the scarf to show off the metal inside. ] It's for cleaning. I'm hoping to find better sensors....

[ Assuming Spot is okay with getting its sensors changed, but bumping into things when trying to clean is probably frustrating. ]

[ There is no good answer for that. So Ken just dips his chin and blushes.

Spot, sensing something in front of it, beeps and whirrs. It wants to clean that big thing in its path! ]

This will be the second time. [ In a month.

Something churns in the robot's interior. It begins wobbling in Ken's grip, so he holds on more tightly, addressing it. ]
Don't....

Not quite - [ And out from the scarf pops Spot! It falls on the snow, whirrs, churns, and discovers it cannot move in this environment. Peevish beeping results.

Ken fights back another embarrassed look and reaches down to wrap his robot back up again. ]
Is "maintenance" a rare augment?

[ Ken looks away. He doesn't want to be relying on said augment, not when it bothers him that it exists, but...well, he's been put in charge of these machines, right? So he needs to take proper care of them.

Clearing his throat turns into a cough given the weather. ]
..I should...find that part.

[ Bleep blorp, says Spot. Ken is not responsible for the name. ]

[ ...He's making them a path? Ken watches for a moment, but brightens at the gesture. ] Thank you...

[ He'll follow a few paces back so as not to crowd this person, since they're being good enough to assist him. Tucking the scarf back around Spot, he thinks. Is this the point where he picks a new conversational topic? Probably, huh. ] ....My name is Ken.

[ Nailed it. ]

A few weeks. [ Muffled beeping, silenced by Ken folding the lip of the scarf over the robot. Now it thinks it's night. ] I arrived while the ships were being remodeled.

[ He might as well use the official explanation for that. ]
