Who: Jihwan
Broadcast: Video
Action: Marsiva
When: now!!

[ Apologies to anyone who stumbles across this broadcast, especially if you've just eaten your lunch.

Why?

Because Jihwan is losing his. Good thing the Marsiva comes stocked with porcelain gods at which to worship at huh? Because after waking up and seeing space outside the giant main window, beelining it for the restroom is all Jihwan can think to do.

So enjoy the sounds of hurling everyone :Db you're welcome. He may be here for a while. ]

[winn]

first days are hard and freaky so I'll let that slide.
I was freaking out when I just got here too, don't let anyone make you feel bad about it.
you got questions or anything?

[residu]

how about what the fuck is happening
why are we in space
thats actually space right??

[winn]

far as we can tell - yes.
the explanation we got is that we're on a reality show. there's actually been an explanation written up on it hang on.

oh my god


oh my god oh my god are you fucking serious

[winn]

deep breaths.
don't worry, you won't run out of oxygen.
I know this is scary, try taking it in one thing at a time. if you've got questions - ask. whatever you need to process.

[residu]

how about fucking--just--EVERYTHING??
what the hell is going on
how did we just
space
i dont

[winn]

if we knew, we'd replicate the process and be home by now. but it's really not that bad - take it from someone who was freaking out too. people are great here, and if you don't look out the windows, the space part's not that bad either.

[residu]

i'm gonna throw up

[ HOW DOES ANYONE EVEN, HERE. Jihwan's having such a hard time winn this isn't fair ]

[winn]

make sure to hydrate.
look, I know this is a lot. but it gets better, it does. maybe we should talk about something else for a while? wanna tell me about yourself?

[ life isn't fair, jihwan. but winn's still gonna try to help you! ]

[residu]

ugh
gimme a se

[ SEC, and by that he means give him about fix to ten minutes to hurla little and get back to him ]

sorry
i dunno i guess we could talk
i'm jihwan


[ He doesn't really want to talk about himself, but the very basics should be fine...right? And it means he's not focusing so much on the impossibility of this whole situation. ]

[winn]

it's ok, take your time.

[ talking about unrelated things really helped him calm down when he just arrived, it just makes sense for him to try the same tactic here. ]

it's nice to meet you jihwan. or text you. I'm winn. [ so what if they said that already, the guy's upset he's not going to expect him to remember ] what do you like talking about? cuz I'm pretty sure I can figure out something to say about literally anything.

[residu]

go for it then because i suck at this kind of thing
nice to meet you though winn

[ There's a bunch of colourful langauge that comes to mind, but none of it really helps distract from the whole...space. Thing. ]

[winn]

ok. do you like video games? karaoke? air hockey? cuz these are all things we can do once you're off the marsiva.

[residu]

air hockey
but i don't usually play much with other people
video games are more my thing

[ Alright, this officially feels surreal. He's discussing video games in space, on reality TV. This is the true pinnacle of bizarre if there's ever been one. ]

[winn]

my kinda guy! I'm working on my own version of super mario.

[residu]

never heard of it

[ but then you know...different worlds and all. ]

[winn]

seriously? you're gonna love it, it's a classic. what kind of games do you like?

[residu]

dungeon crawlers mostly
handhelds and stuff

[winn]

yeah, I can do something like that! any chance you know how to graphics? cuz I'm working with stick figures.

[residu]

[winn]

yeah, I'm a programmer, design's not my forte.

[residu]

[winn]

[ you don't wanna know what he could do in high school. no, you really don't.

[residu]
