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. ]

... 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. ]

[experiencepoints]

What kind of things do you like to read?

[I CAN WORK WITH THIS maybe. oh god i am the worst person to try to help someone else like this.]

[eyeforaneye]

Ancient poetry.

[ yeah... ]

[experiencepoints]

[this chuuni motherfucker]

Well... A while ago, the network got media added, from our homeworlds. I haven't had a chance to go through it all yet, but maybe there will be something good there? Books or poetry or maybe movies you'd like or something.

[eyeforaneye]

[ It's a hard life. ]

That's convenient. They must be trying to placate people in some small way. [ Just to get more dramatic interactions later. Good TV. ]

It's also accessed through this communicator?

[experiencepoints]

That's right.

Oh, but... Avoid the one listed under Ino's name. It is not good.

[eyeforaneye]

[ ... well that's immediately concerning. ]

How so? [ He has to wonder if it's now become some sort of common knowledge that he's from the same world as Ino or if this is just a really impressive coincidence. ]

[experiencepoints]

[She has no idea, no. Her impression of Ino is just that she's friendly enough that she's probably up in everyone's business, no matter how quickly.]

It defies description. I made it about fifteen pages in, and that alone makes me wish to get amnesia again.

[eyeforaneye]

...

That's vague. [ Now he definitely needs to check it out. ]

[experiencepoints]

Does "you really don't want to know" make it better?

[YOU WERE WARNED, SASUKE...]

1/?

[eyeforaneye]

It's about as informative as anything else. A moment, then.

[ So that he can fiddle with this damn machine and actually check for himself with some decent amount of work. ]
