Who: Mon-El
Broadcast: Video
Action: Marsiva if you're new too!
When: Now until he gets shuffled like the deck of cards he is! (What?)

Hi. So, this is not what I was expecting today. [He was expecting some additional rest and recovery after the last few days. Instead, he feels mysteriously good as new.] I'd just heard some great things about Netflix, and I was looking forward to chilling with it. [Someone may have missed giving him the full explanation and context of that phrase. Ooooor maybe they didn't.]

I am getting tired of being the one who always gets abducted. Winn and Alex could take turns too. Just saying.

[A soft sigh. He's staying in pretty good spirits despite everything, but he's wondering if this is doing him any good.] Is anyone even listening to this?

[And just in case someone is.] My name is Mon-El.

[Oh, wait.]

Mike!

I meant Mike. [Almost definitely no one noticed that. It was very smooth. He'll just turn this off now.]

Well, I found out I really don't need to bother with the Mike thing. I don't have to pretend I'm human. And there are bars which I look forward to visiting. And we're in a reality show. I don't actually know what that is.

Huh. Most people don't admit that the first thing they want to do upon getting here is get shitfaced that easily.

...You're from the same place as Winn, but you don't know what reality TV is?

I'm recently from the same place as Winn. It's a long story.

And "shitfaced?" I don't think that's what I want to happen. Is it? [It doesn't sound pleasant.]

I've got time.

[a short pause.]

I mean, I'm assuming so, if the first thing you told me is that you want to check out the bars?

It means getting drunk? [He might have heard it before while shitfaced.]

Oh, well, I'm not from Earth.

Really, horribly drunk, yeah.

Cool. Where are you from?

Oh.

Then I take it back. I'd like to be shitfaced.

Daxam. [Giving this info out like a thing you give out frequently today.] Do you know it?

Yep, called it. You should record yourself once you get to that point, though.

[she shakes her head.]

Can't say I do.

It sounds like you're trying to get me into trouble. [Looking amused.]

Seems like only one person has. [And she couldn't have a lower opinion of it.]

Who, me? Never. I'm innocent.

[a smile, teasing]

Well, once you tell me about it, it'll be two people.

[You know, he almost looks touched at that rely.]

It's not actually around anymore. It got caught in the debris of another planet. [Which makes it not exactly the easiest to talk about either even though he appreciates the offer.] I guess that makes Earth home. Or...this place.

What's your name?

Oh... Man, that sucks. I'm sorry.

[a small pause]

Opal.

Opal is pretty. [Turns out explaining and sliding past the issue of his planet being gone is easier said than done, but he'll give it a try.]

So what do you like doing in the fleet? [Has he asked that already? He knows he's asked a couple of people.]

[she definitely notices him skim over it, but she doesn't comment on it quite yet.]

It depends whether we're stopped at a planet or not. Most of them kind of suck, but there's usually something to do when we're docked there. When we're between stops... There isn't a ton to do, really. I guess there's the library on the Iskaulit.

[He appreciates that and quietly erases the "yet".]

Library? Not much of a partier?
