Who: Sora
Broadcast: Video
Action: SS Golden
When: Today?

[The broadcast opens up with Sora who looks like he's sitting on the cargo bay floor of the Golden, surrounded with a few cleaning droids. When he speaks, he seems awfully cheerful]

You know, it occurs to me that I've almost been here two months- and I haven't really said hi to everybody!

So...Hiya! [He gives a wave to the camera] I'm Sora! I'm the maintenance guy on the SS Golden! Nice to meetcha all! Even if we've...already met!

[Yeah!]

Which, speaking of maintenance...! [He rubs the back of his neck] Ha, I'm pretty new at the job, so I was wondering if anyone knew, just out of curiosity...

What do you do when the smoke detector's smoking?

[Oops]

Oh, so you're the new maintenance guy over there!

Yeah haha, they do that sometimes. [THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO] Just open it up and put the fire out, it's fine. [NEGATIVE??]

That's right! Heard of me before?

[Which could be good or bad...but hey!! Sora's willing to be an optimist about his ego!]

Oh really? That doesn't sound too bad! Everyone made it sound like it was a big deal.

Oh no, nothing like that. I used to be the engineer for the Golden, but that was a while ago. I didn't know if they ever ended up replacing me. Anyway, don't worry about those detectors! They just do that, it's not a problem. I'm sure they work just fine. [don't take his word for it, he has no idea]

Oh- [Well that's a little disappointing. Aw well.] Well I wouldn't say they replaced you. We actually still don't have a full engineer- I'm just in charge of smaller stuff...I think.

[It's really all pretty confusing, but he's really not sure he wants to risk blowing up the warp core if he can help it]

And that's a relief to hear! Thanks! [SOREY WHAT HAVE YOU DONE]

Oh- no no, I'm not on the Golden anymore! I transferred. So, if you're the only one there...yeah. I think that'd make you the head engineer. [sorry kiddo]

Ah...great!

[That's terrible news. He knows nothing about this stuff]

I don't suppose you left behind a manual, did you?

Sorry, I didn't. To be honest, I'm pretty new to all of this too, so it's a lot of trial by fire...

Oh, but I do know about a few of the quirks the ship itself has! I don't mind coming over and at least trying to answer any questions you have, if you'd like. They really do just kind of throw us into this sort of thing.
