driftfleet | First ♣ Video + Action

Who: Allen Walker
Broadcast: Network, video.
Action: Fellow members of the SS Tourist
When: A few days after the initial arrival

[It takes several days for Allen to accept that this is possibly not something Paradisa created. The lack of journals, the stories that he had left, the fact it's been half a week and none of them have died yet (or anything noteworthy happening really!)- it seemed more and more like he really wasn't in that world anymore. Which...he really didn't know how to feel about that. The more he thought on it, the more complicated it got.]

[Which after awhile, Allen decided to give up thinking and decided to actually get stuff done. So the feed will open up with him in the SS Tourist's cargo bay, sitting on some boxes by their treadmill.]

Ah- is this on? oh it-

Hello everyone! Um, my name's Allen Walker. If we haven't met, it seems I'm the lab support on the SS Tourist. It's nice to meet you all, despite the circumstances.

Anyway...I was wondering if anyone has noticed that...any of their abilities seem to be- limited? It's just they aren't completely gone- but my inno- [correcting himself, since rather avoid those dozens of question and innuendos] my powers seem to barely work at all. [Muttered] Then again, that might be a blessing considering the food...

[Oh right. it's rude to mutter stuff while addressing crowds] - I mean, I'm simply wondering if it's happened for anyone else and what it could mean. As in...on one hand it could be something they did intentionally to control us and prevent us from breaking their ships - but on the other hand it it also could be a possible unintended side effect to their tampering of our nervous systems. Although I'm not sure which one would be worse...

[Oh. Oops. Muttering again!] - Oh! Sorry!

And finally, I was wondering...has anyone see a golem flying around their ships? He looks like a golden ball with wings and a tail- and there's a pale cross on his face. His name's Timcanpy- and I'd really like to know if he's here.

Ah- thank you everyone!

[And the feed cuts out]

Baroona?

[He says it like it's an unfamiliar word. And frankly, he sound a little surprised at the unfamiliar name. When he had left Paradisa, he had been the longest resident. Even if you didn't know everyone, you at least knew the names of anyone who stuck around long enough for people to call friends]

I...don't think I've heard of him before.

[Meanwhile, Zelos is from a completely different setup. Not everyone was so together like a pack. It was a bunch of individuals and small groups scrambling to stay on top of things. He certainly couldn't keep track of everyone, despite being there for some time.]

Well, he's a pretty quiet guy, so I can't say I'm surprised.

[If Allen knew Zelos better, or if he wasn't so stubborn about on trying to be polite, he'd probably voice his inner dialogue right now: How on Earth does a loudmouth like you become friends with someone quiet??]

[But Allen truly doesn't know Zelos that well. And even if he wasn't overly fond of the guy (mostly just because his appearance and personality reminded him of certain someone who was much worse), he didn't dislike him enough to break his manners. So, he says the polite response instead.]

I see.

[He's not sure what else to say to that. Like what? Good for you Zelos on making friends? I'm glad your friend got kidnapped by more psychos? Yeah...that didn't seem right. But at least it had made his surprise subside, because a quiet person is someone he rationally didn't know.]

[- Except wait. He guess this did remind him of something. Well, the topic of friends anyway.]

You know, Ino's here too. Have you spoken to her yet?

Ino...?

[The name doesn't register at first, but what does are the number of faces that seemed upset or surprised that he didn't recognize them. He blinks at first, but it's a quick second before he's putting on a smile and laughing, albeit a bit nervously.]

Oh, yeah, yeah! I make sure to talk to all of my darling hunnies. [Such a stock thing to say, but if this guy is saying that... He must not be the guy he remembers either. It's wrong, but he doesn't want to cause another sad face. In the end of this, even if he's lying, they could be angry instead of upset, right?? Maybe.]

Your-

[Well, if anger is what you were going for- congratulations! You succeeded! Because man, he's been around Cross enough times to know what THAT expression followed by stock thing means]

She is not one of your darling hunnies! Don't tell me you forgot her already!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, take it easy!

[He raises both hands defensively to the camera before shaking them to try and ease Allen's anger.]

I was just kidding! I was kidding!

[DEATH GLARE...]

You better be, because Ino deserves much better treatment than that, especially from someone she calls a friend! [And if his tone indicates anything, he doesn't fully agree with Ino's sentiment towards this jerk]

You know, I'm getting some real insulting vibes, here...

[What! He never said you were a friend to him!]

Trust me, that'll be the least of your worries if you hurt her.

Ominous... [He gets it, though.]

Okay, okay, I get the hint. You can cool it already.

[No one messes with his bestie!!]

Fine. [he inhales and starts to calms down. In the back of his mind, maybe there's a feeling that how something was definitely weird about Zelos's reaction. Moreso than him being a jerk with a terrible sense of humor.]

[But, it's not like he knows this guy all that well. So...he brushes that feeling off and doesn't connect the dots. Good job Allen Walker.]

Let's see, Crowley's here too, and... [He can't remember if you two knew each other but whatever listing off people from that castle] - Oh! And Yuan as well! You two are from the same world, aren't you?

[He probably...should've listed that one off first huh. Oh well]
