Who: Uchiha Sasuke
Broadcast: Fleetwide!
Action: Marsiva
When: This very moment.

(broadcast)

[ Sure there are bound to be the occasional less-than-thrilling broadcasts but this one may be a new low, with the camera focused in on a nondescript blob that turns out -- with some acquired distance -- to be a knee. The feed shakes then and there's the loud metallic tap tap of the device being knocked against the framework of one of the generic cots aboard the Marsiva. Tap. Tap. Tap. The only other sound is that of the painfully bland music in the background, without a word being spoken.

At least this inept user finally turns the communicator around to inspect it at another angle, granting any viewer a flash of dark and impractically spiked hair before the camera then focuses on equally shadowed eyes and a severe expression.

No, he's not going to panic. He probably already did that internally before he even tried to figure out the communicator less than successfully. Send aid. ]

(action)

[ Sasuke will be easy to encounter either sitting on that cot and fiddling with his communicator, exploring the bay thoroughly, or staring with incredible and difficult-to-read intensity out into the murky void of space. Godspeed. ]

Comments

[experiencepoints]

Also complicated. And we're at the limit of what I'll discuss while sober.

[eyeforaneye]

Then I'll rephrase it.

Is anyone here what you'd call a threat?

[experiencepoints]

No one's died in the Fleet since I've gotten here, as... far as I know. And I keep my ears open for that sort of thing.

There are a few people I would stand no chance in a fight against, but they all seem to be good people, so I wouldn't call them threats.

[eyeforaneye]

[ Comfort in the knowledge should be all he feels, but his natural instinct to enjoy a fight has him unable to fully commit to the feeling. Too bad. ]

I see. That's the most optimistic thing you've said yet.

[experiencepoints]

The people here are about the only thing to be optimistic about.

[Short pause.]

Unless you're looking to get laid. Then I have no idea how optimistic you should be, but probably not very.

2/2

[eyeforaneye]

Unnecessary.

[ THAT'S IT ]

[experiencepoints]

Oh, definitely necessary if it finally got a reaction from you besides that stoic shit.

[eyeforaneye]

If you don't like my personality then that can't be helped. I'm not having an intimate discussion with you.

[ Not like he has any sex stories to share here or anything. ]

[experiencepoints]

Believe me, I'm not interested in anything that can be described as 'intimate' anything with a guy.

[eyeforaneye]

...

I'd rather theorize about death some more.

[experiencepoints]

[poor sasuke.]

I am pretty sure I mentioned I wasn't going any further into that while sober.

[eyeforaneye]

Meaning I should end this communication?

[ SEX AND DEATH, WE'VE HIT A WALL ]

[experiencepoints]

... If you want, I guess. Unless you have less depressing questions?

[eyeforaneye]

... [ thinking... ]

Those don't tend to be my topics.

[experiencepoints]

... Shit, maybe it's you who needs to not be sober.

[eyeforaneye]

Pass. I don't think it'd agree with me.

[ Aka he's never tried it. ]

[experiencepoints]

That's fair enough, but... Do you have any hobbies or anything at all? That isn't totally depressing?

[eyeforaneye]

[ He thinks it over. He wants to just dismiss the conversation, already close to doing so multiple times throughout, but he wanted to grow as a person after leaving Konoha again.

Well. Here's his chance. ]

I go on walks.

[experiencepoints]

... Okay, that's... something.

Anything else?

[eyeforaneye]

... I train.

[experiencepoints]

... Okay, you sound like me, and that is terrible.

[eyeforaneye]

... I read...

[ JUST CONTINUES ]

[experiencepoints]

Still sounding like me, but that's a little better.

[eyeforaneye]

...

...

...

Mm. [ HE'S HIT A WALL, what else does he actually enjoy. ]
