driftfleet | o1;; You didn't see that coming?

Who: Pietro & You!
Broadcast: yes
Action: SS Bloodsport
When: Right now

[ Video;; ]
[ The video feed shakes, the audio cracking as the communicator is moved around. The broadcasting image so far is the floor, covered in multicolored confetti, and a pair of black and grey running sneakers in view. The left foot taps impatiently before the video swings again to the bridge of the Bloodsport. ]

[ There is a sigh before heavily accented voice accompanies the shoddy cameraman-ship. ] If this is someone's idea of a prank, it lacks humor.

[ The communicator finally turns around, and Pietro is very firmly not happy with this situation. ]

I have complaints.

[ SS Bloodsport;; ]
[ Pietro can be found in various places throughout the Bloodsport. In the kitchen, trying to figure out what the deal with protein paste is. The bridge offers a bit of a distraction with the endless sea of stars or the array of broadcast settings, and how can he resist settling into the bunks? It's been a very long time since he's had his own room. ]

Well, who can keep up with you, right? [Little smile.]

Not very many people, certainly. Not unless they cheated.

How would you even cheat something like that? Teleporting?

It's about the only thing that I can think of.

My best friend just happens to be a teleporter. [She's never really called Kurt her best friend before, but it's what came out and she's not going to argue with herself.] I'm sure he'd like to meet you too.

Is that so? I would very much like to match his abilities against my own at some point. I would like to meet him, too.

[ If only to race him, even though the odds are grossly against his favor right now. ]

His name is Kurt and he's blue with a tail and a German accent. Hard to miss.

Kurt, blue, and German. That should be easy enough find within the fleet. He doesn't have any alternate versions of himself, does he?

Not here. Not anymore. Or maybe not yet. You never know with this place. It's never dull. That would probably be bad for ratings.

I rather assume that it would, yes.

Maybe you'll get to meet the Pietro from my world. Race each other. That kind of thing.

It is possible. I would hate to miss such an opportunity stuck on this communicator.

I will see you again soon, right?

Count on it. [Smiling softly.] You know how to find me.
