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'm working in the asteroid right now, but once my schedule opens up I'll be sure to make a visit.
Video
Then I look forward to it, monsieur!

They can be bad in that aspect. Sometimes there's a lesson to be learned, but... well, they're not very good when it comes to limiting collateral damage to bystanders.

I think I would like to have words with your mysterious Enchantress.

[Poor kid. It's a good job none of them age, or he'd be pissed as hell about Chip losing his entire childhood in porcelain. ]
As would I, mon ami.
Video
[Going to try not to think of all the teacups he's gone through over the years. At least he knows for sure that none of them were ever people.]
Video
[There's a constant fear Chip will end up smashing himself. Maybe if he stopped bouncing all over the damn place their nerves would be a little less frayed by it. At least the kid largely seems to bounce. That's...something. ]
Video
[Considering Lumiére's name too. A faerie's own sense of humor, that was for sure.]
I hope the transformation doesn't hurt, at least? You seem to be in good humor despite it.
Video
It was... an interesting experience. But I see it as if there is life, there is hope. No need to let it throw me into gloom.
Video
For a Frenchman, you seem a rather agreeable fellow.
[Does have to poke a little. After all, he's very, very English. At least it's friendly poking?]
Video
And you do not seem half as pompous, for an Englishman.
Video
Now if only the same could be said for my colleague.

Re: Video
But I was speaking of my peacock of a French counterpart.
Video
Peacock would be a fitting term for us, I have to admit. We do tend towards the extravagant.
[He ounds kinda proud of that because, well, French. ]
Video
That much, we're in agreement on.
