video, 01

Who: John Laurens
Broadcast: Fleetwide video
Action: Aboard the Marsiva
When: Right the heck now.

[He wasn't expecting a bed. More to the point, he wasn't expecting to wake up at all; did someone wake up when they were dead? He's not sure. Well. At least he doesn't hurt after dying, though John can't remember it hurting much before, either. He sits up anyway, still clad in his continental uniform, now with a mysterious lack of bulletholes. In doing so, he jars the communicator nearby, and it falls to the floor with a clatter.]

Shit, what -- [Oh. Okay. There's a thing on the floor, he's surrounded by mysterious silvery walls, and he's trying not to panic. This is great. Maybe the thing will have some answers. So he picks up the comm and pokes at it, tentatively. That manages to activate the video, and behold, there's one seriously perplexed lieutenant colonel onscreen.]

--Um. Can anyone maybe tell me what the hell is goin' on? Is anyone there?

[unbridles]

Is there a library or somethin' around, maybe?

[winn]

Not on the Marsiva, but there is one on the communal ship, Iskaulit. You can get there when you're assigned to a ship.

[unbridles]

Oh! Okay. Good, so I can catch up on stuff then.

[winn]

Yeah, though it's gonna have a lot of gaps so talking to people is still your best bet to learn stuff.

[unbridles]

I like talkin', so it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

[winn]

You're fitting in already.

[unbridles]

Well! Good ta know. [A quick grin.] Got any other surprises for me?

[winn]

Oh, tons, but it's better not to overload on your first day.

[unbridles]

I guess you're right. This is enough of a change as it is.

[winn]

Yeah, take your time, settle in. If you need anything, call.

[unbridles]

Sure will, man. Thanks for the help.

[winn]

Anytime.
