Who: Simon Tam and you
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Bloodsport, if you want
When: Right now

[It had been a while since Simon had addressed the network, but he felt like it was important. He realized when the planet visit had come around how little he'd actually been interacting with people since River left, and it was taking its toll on him.

Time to fix that.]

Ah- hello to everyone, especially our many newer arrivals. I have been quiet lately, but I figured it was time to introduce myself- I'm Simon Tam, medical officer on the Bloodsport. I... [He hesitated.] I've been keeping to myself a lot over the past few months, and I'm wanting to change that. I would like to learn something new- how to garden so I can help grow medical plants on the Iskaulit, perhaps. I would also be up for brushing up on my self-defense skills, since I am quite rusty at best. And if anybody has any other suggestions, I am willing to listen.

Thank you.

Well then I could teach you both, if you like.

[pompous_today]

I would be very grateful.

[child_of_bhaal]

It'll be fun.

[pompous_today]

I will try not to fail at it too hard.

[child_of_bhaal]

None of that now. You'll be great. Have a little faith in yourself, Simon!

[pompous_today]

I will try my best, then- I will get used to this life eventually.
