video | SUPER TOUGH
Who: Takeshi
Broadcast: Fleetwide!
Action: Marsiva!
When: NOW!!!
[Takeshi wakes up with bad cotton mouth and a moment where forgets things -- forgets he was in a jungle last he saw, forgets the Tranquility had crashed, forgets that the people he saw as parents were long-since gone. He rolls tiredly, his baggy (now perfectly mended) sweater dragging on one hand, the sleeve still a bit too long. First thing he does is try to grab a glass of water that would have been on the desk in his room. Aboard an entirely different ship. A ship that no longer exists in space.
He blinks wide awake, sitting up straight.
The first thing he notices is that he's barefoot.
The second thing he notices is that his powersuit is gone. He pulls his sweater practically over his head in his haste, gasping aloud at the pale belly and its pal, the belly button, that greets him -- it' gone! It's gone, it's gone, it's gone! Where? When? Who, how? He looks around wildly, anxious. Was he... kidnapped? All over again? No... it couldn't be.
It's like when they kidnapped humans, on earth. But hopefully less blood.
There were people trying to kidnap them off the Tranquility, too. He remembers that.
Summoning his courage, he does what he learned from his adoptive mother. He bullshits, live on camera, at the screen. He's familiar with how network devices work enough, after all. He knows everyone should be able to see this. He puts on his most serious expression, which is admittedly pretty good for someone who is the size of a five-year-old.]
The person who kidnapped me.... they'd better show their face!
I-if you try to mess with me... I'll... I'll...
I'll kick your fucking ass!!
[Thank his adoptive parents and weird uncle for the choice of words. He puffs out his chest, making a fist. But really, he's kind of scared. Like, a lot scared. He only went without his special superhero powersuit when he broked his leg fighting in the ship before. He couldn't wear it over the cast, then. But now... now he's just... he's normal. He's not a good teammate. He's not good at fighting like this. And it's...
Terrifying.
But he'll keep a straight, determined face. He won't let them know he's scared.
He used to always show how scared he was, when he was living with his real mom. But not no more.
Even if he doesn't have his strength and speed... He's a fighter. He'll... He'll figure out something!]
If you're aliens... then... then my dad'll come find you, too!
And then we'll both kick your ass!
[... Anyone on the Marsiva, feel free to see him peeking around the corner to suspiciously watch you just about anywhere on the ship. That, or find him making himself a peanut butter and raspberry jam sandwich in the kitchens. All that threatening made his nerves convert to hunger.]

[ Not even touching the 'dying' thing. ]

It's were we went, every time there was aliens we had to kill. If we got a hundred points, we got to leave! But only if we got points when the aliens came to hurt people; we had to fight them. An' you could die, because then you'd be gone for real.
[Well, unless someone decided to use their 100 points to resurrect you.
Which happened sometimes!]
They were... not nice aliens.

Her expression flickers, a hint of her anger showing through, before it becomes calm and comforting again. ]
The aliens I know here are all good aliens. But if you ever need help or if anyone tries to hurt you, you can always call me.

It's not very common, not 'til people get to know him better.]
I'll remember! Thanks, I'll always remember.
