[there is a guy(?) in the helmet of a space marine staring into the screen. once he's certain it's on, he backs up, and yeah-- dude is in full armor. given the attire, it might look like he's about to say something serious. and then he actually starts speaking.]

I am on TV! I am on TV! Look! Ah! Hellooooooo! [cue waving his arms around like a fool]

Um!! Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today... I would like to thank the academy. And, uhhh, Church. My best friend. Without my best friend, I never would have gotten this far! I would also like to thank Taco Tuesdays. Oh, and that reminds me-- salsa. THANK YOU TO WHATEVER PLANET FOR CREATING SALSA.

The end. Closing time. Good night and good luck, America!

[if your character wants to find him in-person, it's not hard. he's the rather large pile of armor shouting at his communicator, which is placed on a nearby chair.]

Comments

[bludicrous]

Ohh, no. Just a space marine. [caboose has a limited view of what that is and what it entails, but he's heard it to describe their motley crew enough.]

You sound like a small fancy person. Do you drink tea? From a small fancy cup??? [asking the hard questions]

[flickerflash]

[She giggles.] From the smallest of fancy cups. I'm a very big tea drinker. Or a small one. However did you guess?

[Space marines sound just as cool as robot pilots.]

[bludicrous]

I drank tea once. It was not good. At all. [he is thoughtful about this statement]

Why do you people drink that stuff!

[flickerflash]

You know, I'm not sure. I think somebody famous drank some once, so everyone else did too. And nobody's brave enough to come forward and say what they really think of it.

But I've heard it tastes better if you add other things!

[bludicrous]

I am brave! So I will step forward, [he literally takes a step or two forward, for the love of] AND I WILL SAY IT! It. Is. Gross!

[flickerflash]

[This is the best entertainment for sick kids everywhere]

Well, if you're brave enough to say it, I think I shall switch to hot chocolate instead of tea.

[bludicrous]

[he is one with the chilluns







just not babies]

Yes. Do not forget the marshmallows. The kind that come in different colors. They taste better.

[flickerflash]

[It's cool man no one likes babies]

Oh, yes! I like the blue ones most of all! I don't think they have them where you are, but if I find some I can save them for you.

[bludicrous]

Blue is pretty much always the best. Like me! And you should just set the red ones on fire. Then you can eat them afterward, because that is also delicious! Or you can put them on a cookie between some candy and then call it a More Sandwich. [entirely wrong]

[flickerflash]

[CLOSE ENOUGH] Is it called that because one just isn't enough? I should think you'd get sick after a while.

...I'll have to try one immediately.

[bludicrous]

I highly recommend it.
