Who: Leto + You
Broadcast: Video
Action: N/A
When:

[ The video flickers on to Leto sitting on his bed, kicking his legs briefly. He grins when the video starts recording, pushing himself onto his feet. He tilts his head, that odd bird-like movement he often exhibits. ]

I have heard some interesting things of late, so I thought I'd put the question to you all. When you fall in love, can you only love one person? Can you fall in love with multiple people? Is love something you find yourself stopping after just one?

[ His expression flickers. ]

That is always a possibility. A dangerous path to take. I could easily manipulate events in my favor. Be in complete control.

[ But the grim demeanor fades as quickly as it comes. ]

But I'm not a big fan of that.

[She watches him curiously as that comes and passes.] You seem pretty well adjusted for someone in your situation. [She reaches out to brush his hair back.] Lucky for the rest of us.

[ The touch surprises him. He forgets that people don't mind touching the wormskin. ]

That remains to be seen.

[She only gets more physically affectionate as she gets closer to people. There may be more surprises in his future.] You always say such worrisome things. I feel like right afterward they put "to be continued..." on the screen and end the episode.

No story simply ends. And the best stories are the ones that continue.

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

If none of them end doesn't that make them all the best stories?

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

They are certainly the ones I prefer.

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

Weirdo. [Said fondly as she sips her tea.]

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

But you knew that.

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

And I'm still here. [Smirking.] Of course it's my ship.

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

Ah, so it's your ship now? Forgive the intrusion then.

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

[She reaches over to put her hand over his and give it a squeeze.] It is my ship, but you were invited. [You're going to lose track of all these touches.]

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

How fortunate for me.

[ Sadly, he's not very good at reciprocating that kind of casual touch. ]

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

[She doesn't do it to get it back.] Yes, it's not everyone who will let you fly over and make them tea. [Smiling sweetly.]

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

Perhaps people should do it that often.

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

Maybe they should. [She does appreciate the comfort he offered.] We should spread the word.

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

I'm sure they would appreciate the mention.

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

Probably. Want a snack? I can put something together.

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

I'm fine, thank you.

[ Best to avoid eating. It was harder to feign hunger. ]

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

I'd tell you that you're missing out on the kelp bacon, but I know how strongly you feel about your vegetable brethren.

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

I do feel strongly about plants. Being from a desert planet and all.

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

Do you spend time in the garden on the Iskaulit?

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

Sometimes. As much as I do appreciate greenery, I'm afraid it does make me uncomfortable from time to time. Too much moisture in the air and far too damp.

[ action ]

[passingthrough]

[She nods.] Too much of a good thing maybe.

Re: [ action ]

[precedented]

The desert cannot have too much of water or greenery. It would be destroyed.
