Who: Ordis and YOU
Broadcast: Video
Action: On the Marsiva
When: Now

[It isn't peaceful when the man in the broadcast finally stirs awake. One moment he's merely laying there, awkwardly nude and as still as death, the next he's a flailing mass of limbs that succeeds at knocking himself to the floor. There's a grunt as he meets the floor, and what ensues is a rather odd struggle as he tries unsuccessfully to untangle himself. The best he can manage is a disorganized heap, arms caught beneath his torso and cheek pressed uncomfortably into the floor as he very adamantly voices his displeasure.]


Ordis demands to know what is going on immediately!

[There's certainly anger in his tone, but beneath it there's notes of increasingly uncontrolled alarm, which only seem to increase exponentially with each word. Strangely though, it doesn't seem as though he's quite used to the act of even speaking though, as he struggles to unpin his arms, his hands fly to his face and fingers probing about his features with almost frenetic energy. It can't be pleasant, because there's an exlimation of surprise and pain that has him jerking back and staring wide eyed and horrified down at his arms.]

What is this?!?

Arms, I dare say...

[He's feeling in a helpful mood, clearly.]
lord_wizard: (pretty)

[Being made of flesh, he feels a tiny bit offended by that for some reason]

I gather they weren't before. What did you look like before you got here?

This is the Drift Fleet, as they refer to it. More abstractly, here is 'space', though likely not any you may recognize.

[He doesn't really understand what the guy is getting at but the syntax is amusing]

Ordis currently appears to be a human and not...hm...what is a cephalon?
lord_wizard: (serious)

I don't know where it's from. Not your world or even your universe.

[He feels like maybe he should be offended]

Not anymore you aren't. Today you are human and you'll shortly be helping to run whatever ship you are to be assigned to.
lord_wizard: (mean)

[This is a rude awakening in a number of ways, clearly. It's hard to find the empathy he needs to even start to understand what that might be like.]

You may ignore your duties as you see fit, but your crew may have other feelings. Few of us are terribly comfortable with our current lot in life either, believe me.

And, I'm sorry, but what do you mean by Orokin, precisely?
lord_wizard: (eyebrow)

[personal profile] lord_wizard 2016-03-31 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Because there is no viable way to do so.

[And there are people who him who largely lack the motivation to really try]

So, human?
lord_wizard: (neutral)

Then this should be the first clue that you are no longer in your own universe.

What happened to them? [He can't help but be intrigued]
