one ; he's a transponster!

Who: Merrill & Fenris
Broadcast: {video} Fleet-Wide
Action: Anywhere on the Marsiva (they may split up we'll see).
When: January 14th

{VIDEO} ;

[ The video switches on to reveal— well okay it's an arm, covered in leather, chainmail and white fur, but only because the communicator's taking a moment to get pulled back, and only because there's more than one person trying to use it.

Or more than one elf, with pointed ears and both faces intricately covered in tattoos as the biggest clue. Merrill's markings are as dark as her short, braided hair and Fenris's are as light as his (there might even be a glow). Contrarily, perhaps, she looks much more cheerful in her greeting, but there is still a level of heightened stress to her tone. ]


Yes, hello! It seems we landed in the wrong time. World, actually! Now you promised, since the war's over. Can we speak to somebody in the Initiative? Where are our— Um—

[Merrill doesn't get to finish her sentence, as Fenris wrests control of the communicator from her. He looks decidedly less friendly, in fact, he looks just about ready to punch someone in the face. Hard.]

Our weapons. They are missing. [He jabs an annoyed thumb in Merrill's direction, whose irritated sigh can be heard off-camera.] I understand she likely disrupted the transporter. Just open up another one and send us back to Kirkwall. Now. I have no intention of staying on your blighted moon again. [A pause, a disdainful look around.] Or wherever this is...

[Actually, this looks distinctly non-Initiative. And it's definitely not United Earth, either, he remembers their holding pens, and this is not them. Where the heck ARE they? He doesn't have long to ponder or even let someone answer before there's another sound from Merrill off-camera; a gasp.]

There's something on you! Hold still.

What? What is- NO! Don't you touch me. [He may tolerate you existing in his life now, Merrill, but that doesn't mean you're allowed to touch him with your magey hands. He turns around a couple of times, trying to find...whatever it is on him, his hands tapping around his back until...oh he has a thing on his neck. WHY DOES HE HAVE A THING ON HIS NECK??

His fingers close on it, and he tries to yank it off. If you ever wondered what would happen if you tried to take your Augment off, wonder no more. Fenris gives a pained, frightened yelp, then curls into a horrible, shuddering ball on the floor, muttering horribly in Tevene. He's somewhere in the horrible recesses of his own broken mind right now, don't mind him.

Off-camera: ]


All right, I won't touch you.

They did worse things, but that is a conversation for another time.

Anyway, they were defeated, the war was won.

Yes, you're quite right. I'm sorry for dwelling in your past.

[she sighs slightly, almost like she's clearing away the thought at moving forward]

I'm sure you have a lot of exploring to do.
wolfuncaged: ([Gen] World outside my window)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2015-01-27 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
It is no matter. [His past back home is full of far worse things than that world could ever dream of thinking up.]

There seems little to explore on this ship.

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2015-01-27 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, it's not very big. But there should be enough on the ship so that you could start practicing your new skills?

That's how I pass the time.
wolfuncaged: ([Gen] Hips don't lie)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2015-01-27 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
You mean the information it has dropped into my head?

I am already well acquainted with weapons. I am a warrior. Not that we seem to have any here, regardless. [Which is a good thing, or Cole would be super dead.]
blindoptimism: (surprised ♛ no hell below us)

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2015-01-28 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I see. I suppose that would make sense that they would assign some people skills that they have previous experience with.

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2015-01-28 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm, the familiarity is welcomed.

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2015-01-28 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
Your crew will be well-protected with you nearby.
wolfuncaged: ([Watch] My story's sad to tell)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2015-01-28 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps. If they earn it. [His camaraderie is hard won. His friendship, even more so. Just because he is made to live with these people, does not mean he will necessarily be willing to protect them.]
blindoptimism: (quiet ♛)

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2015-01-29 07:47 am (UTC)(link)
Mm. [she makes a 'fair enough' sort of noise. She can respect that, even if she doesn't agree.]

Then, I hope that they prove to be interesting and respectable people.
wolfuncaged: ([Brood] The guilty prosper)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2015-01-29 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Only time will tell, on that front.
