Who: Anders
Broadcast: FLEETWIDE VIDEO HIT IT
Action: SS Golden
When: 2/14, not long after shuffling WE ARE BACKDATING THIS MY FRIENDS
[He surprises himself when the feed clicks on easily enough. It's unsettling, but at least it's simple. He can bury the unsettling parts.
Those of you who are familiar—or who have had enough introductions to become familiar—might recognize the striped grey and blue of a Grey Warden uniform, with its high, studded collar, and the curled griffon on the shoulder.
Anders is, for his part, smiling broadly.]
So! Now that I've gotten through the "manhandled into a tin can" bit, closely followed by the "manhandled into a slightly smaller tin can" bit, I thought I'd take some time to say hello. Is everyone comfortable? Because I am not, thanks for asking. [beat] Does it ever bother you how terribly one-sided this is?
[Let him talk and he'll talk. Congratulations on being the captive audience.
Right, back on track.]
Now, I don't usually mind a bit of manhandling, of course, but even I have some standards. It was all terribly anticlimactic. Hardly a kidnapping at all, really.
Anyhow. [with a bit more grandeur:] I believe introductions are in order, don't you? I'm going to eat this [he lifts the little dessert cream in a toast] so you go first.
[Ready: go.]

Anyway, I'll catch a shuttle to... I don't know. Whichever moon it is that likes pretty clothes - I think you'd fit in well there. Or maybe the one with alcohol...
And then we can talk.
no subject
Alcohol, I like the sound of that. [He'll need a lot of it, after today.] Wouldn't hurt to get a change of clothes while we're at it, either.
[beat]
Not that I don't have the utmost respect for the uniform. Just that if we aren't going to be doing any wardening about here, I'd like to get something a little bit less... blue.
[That is probably not the original word he had in mind.]
no subject
That would probably be a good plan, if we can manage it. I'm not overly fond of the provided jumpsuits, either, they're very...
[ What's a word that isn't inappropriate? ]
Drab.
no subject
[And maybe he can distract them both long enough from the serious parts.]
