Who: Sora and YOU
Broadcast: Video
Action: SS Huntress
When: Today!

[Sora seems to be in a pretty good mood when he turns on the video]

That planet was something else, wasn't it? I'm used to swimming, but I don't think I ever swam around that much before! It was fun, but pretty tiring. But I'm glad we could help those people!

Anyway, I got so busy that I kinda forgot that my one year anniversary was a few weeks ago. So...that's a thing! Does anyone know what you're supposed to do for that? I feel like something should be done.

Oh- and one last thing! Sorey! I got this strange message this morning. It says that you're my great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather. How about that, huh?

Are you telling me you've been aboard these ships for over a year?

[That was a long time to be stuck aboard the intergalactic prison.]

[notzubats]

Hmm, yep!

Some people have been here even longer.

[maledictus_semper]

Then, congratulations are in order for you, young man.

[Don't mind him. He just likes to be patronising at times.]

How are you enjoying your stay so far?

[notzubats]

Uh, thanks I guess?

[What is patronizing when you could take it seriously]

Um, it's alright? I'd rather be home, but I've made a lot of good friends here! And seen a lotta neat worlds!

We could always make a cake. Seems like the traditional thing to do, anyway.

[He gives significant pause at the last thing Sora mentioned – but he won't bring it up in public. Not right now.]

video.

[notzubats]

You could? You mean like a birthday cake?

That'd be good!

video.

[stefanged]

Exactly like a birthday cake. But better.

I'll need a sous chef, though – know where I can find one?

[This lad is entirely too happy about swimming. And helping.]

Watery planet, eh? There weren't...erm....tentacly things down there, were there? Sort of [he wiggles his fingers in a tentaclish way] like that? With the gaping maw?

Video

[notzubats]

Oh, did you just get here?

And....I heard there were? I didn't see any when I went down, we ran into gyra- big serpents.

Video

[all7seas]

Just got here, aye! [And the lack of rum is starting to tell on him with kraken nightmares.]

Good thing we're shot of the place, then, mate. Though it must have made the swimming exciting.

[monolike]

Your ancestor?

[.....................................well-] I guess it's not that strange...we even look a little alike. Except I'm never going to have kids. And we don't belong to the same world.

[notzubats]

[Yeah, even Sora knows it sounded super weak when he read it. Like total bull. But.

That won't stop him from making himself sound sad about this explanation.]

What?

Are you saying you aren't my Grandpa...?

[monolike]

I'm sorry, my child...it was a secret I kept from you since birth.

I. Am not your real grandfather.

[searingedgelord]

[She's still not used to responding to these things, but the amount of time he says he's been here gets her attention.]

You've been here for an entire year? And you're okay with that?

Video

[notzubats]

Well, I wouldn't say I'm okay with it, I still wanna go home.

But lots of people wanna go home here. And I've made a lot of friends here! So I might as well try to be positive, right?

Video

[searingedgelord]

Yeah, I guess so.

[She still sounds dubious, but she's not arguing.]

voice.

[airily]

Someone's suggesting Sorey had kids?

voice.

[notzubats]

Looks like!

Not very likely unless he adopts, right?

voice.

[airily]

Either that or some kinda miracle happened... Some people think of the strangest things, huh?

voice

[kingofbadlifechoices]

I have been here for over a year as well, I do not think people feast because of it.

[A pause, followed by a soft and quite unsure:]

...or is it?

voice

[notzubats]

Huh?

Hey, is something wrong?

voice

[kingofbadlifechoices]

No, no, not at all. I am doing quite well. But being here is not worthy of any celebration.

Unless it is normal. I mean, modern people have a lot of feasts I do not know of.

[spacebro]

You should have a party! [To be fair, this is his answer to a lot of things, but it fits anniversaries, right?]

And this Sorey must be very old.

video

[notzubats]

[that gets him a laugh. He likes Mon-El]

A party, huh? That could be fun!

Oh yeah, he's super old alright. [No he's not]

video

[spacebro]

It would be almost hard to throw a party that wasn't. [Cheerful.]

[Before the considers Sorey again.] He'd have to be at least...two hundred and forty?
