video broadcast. REAAADING RAAAAINBOW.
Who: Sam and you!
Broadcast: video.
Action: if you're someone aboard or visiting the red fish would like, just lemme know!
When: today! Jan. 17th. hurrah.
[Sam has been mostly settling in. Now that the planet's behind them and he's got a hardy collection of salt and a bundle of self-written notes about the icy world they left behind, he's gotten back into learning some sign language (to bug Coil with, of course, though he's obviously not so great yet; sorry Coil). Outside of that, Sam's gotta keep himself busy, okay? Okay.]
And now we're buckled in for this long-winded space roadtrip again, right? At least I'm out of pajamas for this one.
[Small favors. Has it really been a month since he popped up? Feels like just yesterday. It's been a hoot, being in motion. Sort of.]
I'm all for the power of technology, but I'm actually more a fan of physical, paper books. There's just a difference there that's hard to replace with a network device. Anybody have any they'd be willing to let me borrow? Or maybe even trade for, though I'm a little limited on goods, fair warning. Hell, if there's a place around here with an actual library, that'd be great; I wouldn't mind helping out there with extending it however I can, planet to planet. Keeping it updated. After all, there's an eternal stream of history, fiction, poetry — all from different worlds and universes. Why not take advantage of the circumstances and learn about all of that in our spare time?
Anyone who takes there time writing or recording information, let me know. We could maybe include it in whatever we already have, get some cataloging in place, maybe download things digitally into the system as a back-up? If we have the ability to yet.
[Hmm. He sounds amused for a moment when he continues:]
If you guys did have to pick a book or series or something to include in a collection around here, what would it be?
... Chances of finding it in the middle of some random galaxy is kind of low, but I'm pretty sure us being here was one in a million.
[Wait, another thing.]
We have kids on board, too, right? Maybe I'll look for some kids books at the next place. I can only imagine how bored they'll get, sitting around on a ship. It's not like this place is giving younger passengers a lot to do.
[guys he's a fucking nerd what do you expect out of him]

[YES HE CAN HE'S JUST NOT GONNA SAY YOU'RE IN MOVIES BACK HOME OK
he's already freaking out about obi-wan internally]
I'm Sam; and you are?
[he already knows shut up shhhhh don't worry about it]
no subject
[And a little curious whether this means they're from the same galaxy, whoops.]
What planet are you from?
no subject
[It's nowhere special, promise. :|]
no subject
Leia shakes her head.]
Different galaxy. [Which means...] Alderaan must sound like someplace else you know.
no subject
[He smiles a friendly little dimpled smile. Wow. This is badass Princess Leia, be still my heart.]
Still gonna say, I'm definitely interested in this poetry, though.
no subject
I'll see what I can do. I don't think I've had to recite any of it in ten years.
So, what would you add to the library, if you had your pick of books?
no subject
[He considers for a moment, and then smiles again.]
I like just about anything I can get my hands on... but I think poetry is pretty universal. Shel Silverstein, probably. I used to have his books in the last place I was stuck in; I've read them enough that I definitely remember a few of them.
no subject
[And whether she'd like it is pretty questionable, but it takes all kinds.]
Why don't we trade? I'll copy down what I know if you'll do the same.
no subject
Now that, I can definitely do. We'll be poetry pen pals.
