Who: Lumiére and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Wonderduck
When: Today!
[Since arriving at the Fleet, Lumiére has tended towards just using the voice function to communicate with people outside of the Wonderduck. It makes his life considerably easier. He doesn't have to navigate the mine-field of questions that come with just looking at him. He can talk to people like a normal person, and it's great.
Today, though, he needs to actually address the problem of his general...him-ness, and as such, he'll switch the video on. He casts the screen a warm smile all the same, giving a little wave of a candle-hand.]
Bonjour, my fellow Fleet members. This is quite an interesting planet, no? I hear the concerts here are really something to experience. I might have to test out the waters myself. It has been a while since I got to enjoy one.
[It's not the kind of concert he's used to, but after a decade of no concerts at all, he'll sure as heck give this new kind a try.]
But! I had another reason for speaking to you today. I have heard there are several people in the Fleet who are experienced with magic. I was hoping I could speak to them, especially if they know anything about curses- because as you can see [he chuckles, gesturing to himself] I have something that might interest their magically inclined minds.
[Filtered to Winn]
As promised. Here I am, settled on the Wonderduck and checking in. [Like three weeks too late but ya'll can't expect miracles. If you wanted good time-keeping, you should have befriended the clock]
[Otherwise, Lumiére can be found happily hopping around the table of the Wonderduck, carefully setting it so it at least looks like an actual, fancy dinner table and not a metal slab where people sit and eat. They may be in space, but they can still have a little culinary refinement, god.

I was more referring to what it did, though. Are you...ill, or disabled in some way? [He's not really sure what would count as ill or disabled for a candelabra, but that's what most magic that might be referred to as 'curses' would do.]

[Lumiére hesitates for a moment. Looking down at himself, then back at the camera. ]
...You mean besides the fact it turned me into a candelabra?

He grimaces, and pauses a moment to recuperate from the severe blow to his ego.] I promise I'm not actually as stupid as I'm sure I look right now. In my defense, I was talking to a sword just the other day who said that some kind of summoner brought him to life.
[It's a big, big multiverse.]
Anyway, I'm afraid the kind of magic I know can't do anything like that, so I probably won't be much use. I have been trying to learn about different types of magic throughout the worlds, though, which is part of what caught my interest. Is it normal for spells to be able to transform people where you come from?

Oh, you have been speaking to him! Qui, we have met. Our situations are similar, only...opposite directions.
I am honestly not sure. I did not even know magic existed at all until it actively happened to me. I don't think any of us did. Our lives were just...what they were. Nothing especially fantastical about it. Perhaps it is, and no one knows about it.
[Maybe there are other people- trapped in forms that aren't their own. Queens and young men trapped in the form of bears and Llamas. Who knows.]
