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?

Re: Video
Somewhere, there is a better balance of phrases. Tyrion himself would be cocky as hell if he managed to find a woman who wanted to put up with him for more than an hour in a romantic fashion. Count your blessings, Winn.]
Interesting ... do you have some I might research? I wish to start off strong, after all.
[For it will give him another project outside of his engineering duties, building weapons, reading everything he can get his hands on, and of course working on his greenhouse project.
...Tyrion needs distraction like he needs wine and whores. Since he's lacking in one and avoiding the other, he'll take distraction.]
Video
oh, he absolutely knows how lucky he is. apparently, back home, he's given up that happening badly enough to fall in with a banshee who tried to kill his best friend - finding kitty is nothing short of a miracle to him. ]
Wish I did, but this place has no internet. We can try to come up with some together though, if you want?
[ winn knows all about finding projects to keep himself busy. he has about a 100 going at this point, all trying to distract him from everything from his fear of heights to his fear of falling into insanity - to his guilt over not being able to get kara home yet. ]
Re: Video
Tyrion understands. He's given up so much that he refuses to have any women at all. Finding someone like Kitty would require a score of miracles.]
I would delight in that. I do like broadening my scope.
[So ... two obsessive personalities have found one another to build entire new worlds together. Now that is going to build interesting things, wasn't it.]
Video
winn points at the screen with a smile. ]
My kinda guy. Anytime you feel like it, gimme a call.
[ at the very least it's going to give kitty headaches as she has to drag her boyfriend from yet another obsessive project. ]
Re: Video
He cannot help but smile back, though.]
You can consider that a promise, Winn.
[He dipped his head into a bow. Obsessive projects were his specialty these days.]
Video
Looking forward to it, Tyrion.
[ ok - he'll mirror the gesture. obsessive projects are so much his specialty his friends may be considering an intervention. he can't seem to go through a whole conversation without picking another one up. ]
