Fifth ♠ Video
Who: Allen Walker
Broadcast: Video
Action: Blue Fish if you're there
When: February 8th
[Some of the older fleet members may recognize Allen coming on the screen, in his lab for yet again, one of his video messages. He at least seems to be getting more comfortable at the idea of speaking in front of the camera- or more likely from the slightly tired tone in his voice, he's too tired from dealing with the antics of his energetic captain to give many damns]
Hello everyone! For those who don't know me, I'm Allen Walker-, the lab assistant on the S.S. Blue Fish. Just a few quick things today I'd like to say!
First of all, some of you may have noticed odd behaviors from your crewmates recently. The source of this is believed to be some malfunction from our augment implant. Luckily, I've done some scans and while there seems to be unusual activity - I haven't detected any actual brain damage so far! Beyond that, there's a lot I still don't know, I'll let you know if I learn anything else on the matter.
Second of all, due to the coming of the romantic holiday on some worlds called Valentine's Day, the augment malfunctions and the moons in this system- I'd like to go over some things to keep in mind for an easier month:
[He starts numbering them off with his finger as he talks.]
That's all I have for now. If your ship still needs a medical kit, please contact me and I can get one delivered.
Thank you for listening.
[He waves at the camera a bit sheepishly, and the feed cuts out]

1. Please remember not to eat or drink anything if you don't know where it came from.
2. Some of the malfunctions seem to be causing....sudden attraction to other people that did not exist previously. Please keep that in mind before you make any impulsive...er, romantic decisions.
3. And if you ignored #2 and you decide to compulsively get married, I...highly recommend you check the divorce and annulment policies in this area of space. Just... [He hesitates before shaking his head] believe me on this one. It might save you a lot of trouble in the future.
That's all I have for now. If your ship still needs a medical kit, please contact me and I can get one delivered.
Thank you for listening.

[He gives a small sigh, but he'll try to look pleasant enough]
What would you like to know about it?
video
[it doesn't even sound like a question. it sounds a little more like an accusation.]
video
In've just know people who have. They fell under a spell that influenced their judgement, and next thing they knew they had married nine people. [a beat] Well, most of the time it was just one person, granted.
video
video
[Let's face it. He only watched the movies of the ones with fighting man]
video
Yeah, one of those. Everyone runs around tries to get married to each other because some fairies cast a spell on them. Someone also gets turned into a donkey. Kind of.
[a pause.]
I didn't really have a point in mind, that just reminded me about it.
video
[...]
Actually if you change "fairies" to "castle", that's a fairly accurate comparison.

video
I think there was a theater group once...
video
video
It was certainly a jerk, yes. But...maybe it was! It did seem to grab a lot of people from Earths.

video
[...He guesses there ARE lots of humans]
...I hope they don't like Shakespeare too.
video
video
They probably wouldn't be the same in space too! [HOW DO YOU INVADE DENMARK IN SPACE??]
video
[nodding to herself...] Especially since this place is based on science, not magic. As far as I've been able to tell, anyway.
video
Science and magic are not mutually exclusive to one another, Miss...?
[He then shakes his head at the other point]
But maybe you're right. Maybe it won't be the same and I'm worrying too much. Still, they've already kidnapped us for their entertainment and attached machines to our nervous systems that couldn't even last six months before malfunctioning. So while I'll hope for the best, I'm not about to trust them enough to assume they won't be as bad as Paradisa. [Or worse, as bad as home]
[Meet Allen Walker: Severe trust issues.]
video
Oh, well, I never said "better"... Just different. I'm the last person to be optimistic about that kinda stuff, trust me.
Re: video
[He seems to shrink a little visibly. He's far too used to people dismissing him with words like that, which is ANNOYING. But he gives an apologetic smile]
Sorry, I think I just misunderstood. I'll remember you're a pessimist.
