Action: SS Red Fish
When: Today-ish
[Sam's currently taking the time to heal after certain people we shall not name shot him in the arm; it's all good, it's all good. Pop some pain meds, keep the arm from getting worked too hard, it's going great. But now that he can't go do some work down on the moon, he's a bit more restless. Maybe he should tell Katie about his arm, have her work a little magic mojo...? Or should he just. Not tell the small child that someone shot him in the arm. Anyway.
He takes some time to voice some internal stuff. It was mostly spawned by Nightingale, and he can't help but speak up; it's utterly bizarre, he thinks, that he does that now. Speak up. He's still shitty at it, like, 60% of the time, but every percent counts. He compares it to the guy who was dying in a chapel not so long ago, and really, the amount of worth he's found in himself compared to then is staggering when he thinks about it.
Things change. He feels like he's been changing at a vicious pace for the last eleven years. But is that so surprising? Considering the friggin' circumstances, he supposes it only makes sense.]
Someone here asked me how to think positive.
More than that, how to be positive about yourself. And honestly? That's a work in progress. Don't get me wrong, you're talking to a hypocrite if I go... chiding you on healthy outlooks. But you know, someone from another world gave me a task, back when I was low — I mean, really low. She said... Even if it's only once a week, once a month, you should stop and remind yourself of something positive — about yourself. Some good thing you do, or some skill you have. Something that makes you you. Strengths. Foundations for others to work off of. Or hey, maybe you just like the way your nose looks.
If's kind of important, isn't it? Feeling like you're worth something in some way. I'd argue it's kind of a survival technique, right? Believing in your capabilities, they kind of help you get through rough situations. Help you be a better person, or contribute in a way that makes you feel like an important puzzle piece.
[He sweeps his hands though the air, palm-up, simply gestures that come with conversation. One arm is less lively than the other.]
And yeah, I can already hear some of you, telling me to pipe down on the armchair psychology, can it with the talk show advice. Kind of sappy, right? But I mean — hear me out, huh? Humor me.
What's something you guys like about yourselves?
...

And if you give some creepy, flippant, or otherwise wise-ass reply for some chuckles, we get it. You like how edgy you are.

Usually, um. Ponies don't talk back, in my world. It's definitely a new experience. This. Right now.

Well... If you ever have any questions about... humans, just let me know.
I'm sure there's plenty weird about us you'd like clarified.

[And yoooouuu're a being that eats animal flesh willingly...]
Nah, it's not too bad; OUR world can get a little crazy sometimes too!
[Not to mention Pinkie's not exactly the most boring, normal pony ever herself.]
Heck, the only thing about you guys that REALLY freaked me out was you needing to eat meat, but that's okay since you guys NEED to eat it in order to live, right?
no subject
Oh.
Um. Yeah, we're omnivores. That's — That must've been kind of a shocker.
[I AM TALKING TO A HORSE WHO DISAPPROVES OF MEAT-FEASTING.]

Yeah, kind was. Lucky me, Qing was pretty nice about explaining it, though.
no subject
Er, but everything else is going alright?

... Congrats on the birthday, though. How, um... old are you this year?
[How is he going to explain this conversation to Dean.]
STUPID CANON NOT GIVING HER A PROPER AGE!
Aw, thanks! And I'm--
[WHOA HOLY COW ALL THE ALARMS ARE GOING OFF RIGHT NOW!]
YIKES! I-think-I-gotta-go-fix-that-bye-nice-meeting-you!
[PINKIE YOU DIDN'T EVEN EXCHANGE NAMES-- op, too late, she turned the comm off to keep the ship from going out or something.]
