Who: Hiro Hamada
Broadcast: Accidental Video
Action: Bishop
When: 12/17

[Here's a face you haven't seen in a while, flooters. The shaggy dark hair, the scrawny arms, the gap in his front teeth--yep, Hiro Hamada has not actually gone home.

[He is asleep, though, it seems, lips barely parted as he takes in shallow breaths. But after a moment of this, he starts to stir. His eyes flutter open, and he squints at the ceiling. Something is wrong, here.

[This is not his ship.]

... Wh...

[His voice is a laughable croak, and he starts coughing.]

... shit...

[Language, Hiro.

[He sits up, looking around, and it starts to dawn on him that... actually, this does look a lot like the Bishop. Just... different?]

... Ohhh, crap. [There he goes, recognizing that he took one of those coma naps. He drags his hand down his face. He doesn't realize he's being recorded yet.]

Dude! Hiro!

[Alex taps on the camera lens, like it will somehow get his attention better.]

Oh my god, I thought you'd gone AWOL on us!

[video]

[everydayhero]

[congrats alex you get to see his confused face as he looks all over for his comm

[then he finds it and realizes it's been recording]

... Oh, crap. Hey. How long has it been? Why's it so cold?

[delincuente]

Fuck if I know. I don't think I've seen you since we were on the Marsiva, man.

[She's trying to be lighthearted, but there's a hint of gentle concern.]

... Everything alright?

action.....

[ishere]

[ and tadashi will just come strolling back into the room a moment or so later, face in a book. he drops down to the chair he has at hiro's bedside and proceeds to completely not notice the fact that his little brother is awake. ]

[everydayhero]

[hiro's just... watching him do that.]

... Uhh... Hi?

1/2

[ishere]

Holy-

[ aaand he's fumbling with the book, briefly juggling it before he just drops it entirely. ]

[ishere]

You woke up.

[ nevermind, forget the book: tadashi has literally never looked so relieved in his life. ]

[ino]

[everydayhero]

--Ino.

[RELIEF]

Are you okay? Did anybody get hurt while I was out?

video;

[ino]

No, everyone's fine. Maybe a little cold, but not hurt.

[ She lets out a relieved sigh. ]

You've been out for awhile.

[save_the_souls]

[Whoa, it's been awhile since he's seen this one]

Hiro! Are you alright?

Video

[everydayhero]

Why, you miss me already?

[yeah, he's fine.]

[save_the_souls]

[Well his ego is the same...]

Well when you've been asleep as long as you were...

[arcanepower]

Hiro!!

[Belth practically leaps out of his chair in his room and tries to scamper into the hall, but it's hard to climb a ladder very fast, and his robes are caught on his feet for NO REASON AT ALL so there's a yelp and a thump.

He'll get there. Eventually.]

video;

[everydayhero]

--Bel, be careful!

[HE'S COMING TOO HE'S GOT THIS HE'LL BE THERE SOON!!!]

video;

[arcanepower]

Who thought ladders would be a good idea?!

[well, now he has to straighten everything up and make sure he looks presentable in the 5 seconds it will take for Hiro to get there.

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.]

video (combo breaker hahahahahaa)

[kotatsu]

[ omg yes, another child almost around her age, this is good. she doesn't recognize him, but she figures she'll try and help him out anyway. is he new??

also he's using bad words and that makes her frown just a tiny bit. ]

... Are you okay?

video (butthead)

[everydayhero]

[omg i'm 15!!!!!]

Uh, yeah, sorry.

[he pauses]

I don't think we've met. I'm Hiro, captain of the SS Bishop.

video (how dare you)

[kotatsu]

[ whoa whoa wAIT HOLD THE GODDAMN PHONE. ]

You're a captain?

[ what the fuck. ]

[mylegacy]

. . . Are you all right?

[A beat.]

Alternately, if you're tired of that question, we could talk about the weather.

video;

[everydayhero]

Not tired of it, just a little frustrated at Atroma. Not exactly getting paid if I'm not making ratings, you know?

[he rubs the back of his neck.]

How's the weather?

video;

[mylegacy]

Maybe you were robbing them blind and they had no choice.

[Dry as dust. Atroma, why you gotta put kids in a coma.]

It's snowing, actually. I'd invest in some snowshoes.

[hymnals]

Hey, kiddo. Sweet dreams?

video;

[everydayhero]

I dunno, feel like I could sleep another hundred years or so. Think Belthazar would throw a fit, though.

[hymnals]

Wouldn't want that. He exhausts himself enough as it is.
