084.1 Video

Who: Lance Hunter and yourself, should you choose to engage!
Broadcast: yes
Action: Marsiva
When: no time like the present!

[ the comm seems to be haphazardly leaning against something, and the image you get is crooked. a sleeping man, who almost instantly awakes with a start. no scream, mercifully, he's quite over screamer videos, and besides, it wouldn't really be that surprising under the circumstances, now, would it? his eyes dart around the room, his feet flying off the cot and touching the ground. the moment he speaks, his accent undeniably and unapologetically identifies him as an englishman. ]

Not again - [ he groans, looking around him. the first time he was knocked out and kidnapped happened because he was foolish, he trusted a friend when clearly he had overestimated the bond, bloody spies, he's had his fill of bloody spies. but this time - he has no idea what happened. one minute, he's in a pod, sailing to freedom and the next - he's in this bed. he must not have deactivated something. do they have a blasted tracker beam on these things? so paranoid! ] Oi, @therealshield, you forgot to paint your eagle - I'm gonna have to deduct your merits - [ no answer. the room really doesn't seem like anywhere his previous captors kept him in, and that's rarely a coincidence. he gets up, and the comm seems to slip off whatever it was leaning against and end up in a new position, one that shows the back of the man, as he walks towards a window. ] ...you have got to be joking.

[ and a moment later ] Bloody aliens!

[ the man comes in and out of the frame, as he's clearly examining his surroundings, before he heads back to check on what he's got by his cot, and notices the comm. picking it up, you now get a close up of his face - ] Little red light - you're either going to explode or - [ that sure looks like a camera, doesn't it? he holds it directly in front of his face. ]

Take me to your leader.

Did they literally picked you up at a cave?

I'm lucky to have clothes.

But on my world, Terca Lumireis, we don't have TVs. We deal more in magic and monsters.

Small mercies to be grateful for.

[ because he is so not interested in seeing you naked. ]

What's that, the d&d knockoff?

[ It's not like Yuri buttons up his shirt. ]

I dunno. But I'll take it over the D&D and reality TV that your world has.

[ it's not the shirt that concerns him. well, concern is an exaggeration. would mildly irritate him if it's foregone. ]

That's very closed-minded of someone that invested in a make-belief reality. [ guess who doesn't grasp the idea of a multiverse. ]

Look who's talking. Maybe your reality is made up.

I'm not that lucky, mate.

[ reality tv and d&d are the lesser evils of his reality. actually, both can be quite fun with the right company and refreshments! ]
