Action: the Tourist
When: now!
[ last time he posted anything, he was a nervous wreck and kind of nauseous. the changes the past two months have left in him are impossible to miss; winn is smiling, upbeat, and almost comfortable. the nervous energy that is there has more to do with his addressing a bunch of strangers than the constant fear of death by space-stuff that overshadowed his first feed. ]
Hi, if we don't know each other - I'm Winn Schott. If we do know each other...I'm still Winn Schott - [ shaking his head, why hasn't he learned from the last time? prepare a script! ]
Anyway! I've been here for a couple months now, and it's been interesting - and I mean that in the original sense of the word. Think about it - not only are we in outer space [ there's only a slight wince at that, and even a lot of excitement. space is terrifying - but it's also really cool ] - but we have a once in a lifetime opportunity to reach across the multiverse and learn things that haven't even been dreamed up in our worlds yet. I've been learning - a ton from just casually talking to people, but there is a much better way to do this if we all cooperate, [ open source. it's the way of the future! ] and I know I'm not the only one out there who's interested!
So, I've got a suggestion for anyone who thinks that's really cool - and - pity for anyone who doesn't [ and by pity, he means judgment. he gestures excitedly with his hands as he introduces his brilliant concept ] - 2016: A Space-Time Odyssey - a series of free weekly lectures about anything and everything we've got here. Talks about different worlds, science, history, art lessons, concerts - I know we've got some musicians here - basically anything anyone signs up to talk about, teach, perform, or however you communicate things where you're from. Since we don't have a lecture hall we can broadcast the talks - give ourselves a fun routine....and if that doesn't work for someone, I can post the notes I'm so gonna take of all of these. Who's in? Who wants to go first?

[ a fine chance to find out a little more about other worlds and more importantly, other people. knowledge is a form of power, after all and if there is anything margaery has learned during her stay here is that she has still a lot to learn ]
Would that I could offer my assistance but I fear there is little I would be able to teach. However, I shall be a frequent visitor.

[ she waves her hand as if to brush away the compliment ]
You were very skilled before you met me. I hardly had to teach you a thing.
video »
[ it's obvious she has a remarkable head on her shoulders. ]
You taught me a lot, speaking of, when are you up for another lesson?
video »
[ they have nothing but time, in truth but even an endless amount of time is better split among those who are in her favor ]
I found some nice thread in silver at one of the shops.
video »
How about tomorrow?
[ when he first arrived, it felt like he had nothing but time. now, he's managed to fill his days with so much work, love, and friends, that it feels like he never has enough to do all the things he wants to.
ok -- he really needs to go shopping with her, how does she always make the best finds? touches of silver would look so cool on the costume he's making kate -- ]
You've got like a 6th sense for shopping, don't you?

[ her smile turns sweeter at the compliment. loras once told her she has a fine eye for finding things in the markets of highgarden and the fabric he liked she would give the seamstresses to turn into tunics and cloaks for him and think nothing of it. ]
I have much time to stroll, that is all.

[ s m i l e ]
You've got a lot of talent. [ and he can tell she knows it but even so he feels the need to keep reminding her. it's another one of her talents. ]
Is there a specific time that's good for you? [ it's so convenient, that he's already spending the night on the windrose. why can't everyone he wants to hang out with be on the same ship? ]
video »
There is very little to do in the sick-bad, the gods are good.
[ let her be idle all the time, in that regard. ]
Whenever you wish.

he couldn't agree more. he's already met one person in need of medical attention and in a situation like theirs - it's one person too many. ]
I can drop by after breakfast?
video »
[ and she has never tended to anyone before, best be prepared. ]
I try as much as I am able.
video »
[ he nods. information's been planted in their heads - it can also be extracted. muscle memory would come in real handy if that ever happens. and just in general, it's good to acquaint yourself with medical supplies and practices. which is why he's going to start taking lessons. ]
video »
[ in case he thinks of asking ]
You shall have to see it for yourself.
video »
You didn't have to get me anything - thank you.
[ it doesn't even really matter what it is, he already loves it. ]
video »
[ she dips her head with a little smile ]
It is a little thing but I do hope you will find it pleasing.
video »
I'm a thousand percent sure I will, it's from my dear friend.
video »
[ she giggles, still. he cannot mean any harm if he tried. she does find it very comforting. there aren't many such men in westeros. ]
video »
Me? I would never!
[ he smiles; he may have been teasing a little, ok. ]
video »
that is cruel, I did mean it, you know.
[ ok perhaps her pout is all pretend but it's very convincing ]
video »
Hey -- so did I.
[ the phrasing is weird for him, and funny, but he does consider her his friend. and not just that - she may be more mature than he'll ever be, but she's still a kid. he feels responsible for her. ]
video »
[ and perhaps one half of the pout is not one half of a smile ]
video »
[ ok, so kara makes a million friends with remarkable ease, but he's only ever introduced her to margaery, and it's not just because she already knows most of the people he does by the time he meets them.
they're both strong, kind, wonderful people, and as jealous as he still sometimes gets of others getting to spend time with kara - he wants them to have each other. ]
video »
[ very much like him in the manner of thinking six-and-ten would make one a child but still. ]
I did not thank you, for the introduction.
video »
Happy to do it. It's kinda like getting to introduce wind to fire.
[ ok he can make way cooler analogies, but margaery wouldn't get his references, and they're absolutely forces of nature, the both of them. ]
video »
[ curiously. ]
