Who: Hank McCoy and Erik Lehnsherr
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: crashed ship
When: today!
[when the feed opens, the network is gifted with the bickering of two men]
I don't see why you can't do this.
[Erik is the one visible on screen, and he doesn’t look pleased about it at all. He jerks his chin towards the wall next to him, irritated.]
Because it’s your idea, and I don’t want to.
[the huff that follows is a little on the growly side]
I’m here to open paths, not send out messages. [As if to punctuate this point, Erik turns away from the camera and swipes his hand through the air. The metal wall crumples to the side with a shriek, curling up on itself like a ringpull.
The camera shifts off of Erik with a muttered "show off" to the plant life spilling out of the side of the hull, and a clawed, blue foot comes into frame to poke at a nearby pumpkin]
In any case - Erik and I are at the crashed ship, if anyone would like us to bring some of these back. If you're interested, feel free to message one of us.
As for the ship - if anyone else is planning to come out here, be careful. There's ways into the ship, but it has been here a while, so it's falling apart. We'll try to get some information about the signal while we're here, though so far we haven't had much luck.
[the camera moves back to Erik]
Do you have anything you want to add?
[Erik’s mostly occupied with pointing his flashlight into the gloom of the area beyond the wall. He does give a curt response.]
No requests for pumpkins bigger than the usual Earth-size.

Action
Making a path, rather than trying to find operational doors.
Action
Someone said the ship is unstable.
[When they complained at her for cutting holes in it as she climbed.]
Action
Yes, of course it is. It's been rotting out here for years. I know where the worst of it is.
Action
Can you hold it up?
Action
If this entire ship were to crumble on itself, nothing would stop it. The forest has already claimed it. Some parts are still more stable than others. [He can easily avoid the areas that won't accept their weight, or further punishment. Ideally, none of those lie between them and the bowels of the ship.]
Action
[It wasn't exactly a question, but close. After she said it, she tentatively stepped through the gap he had made in the wall.]

Re: Action
What are you hoping to find?

[Laura had almost gone back to the ship because of those. She did not like things being put into her head.]

[Laura hesitated.]
But I do not understand most of it.

Action
...Do they understand any of it?
Action
Action
I feel like I understand part of it. But...not enough to matter.
