[ Oh boy, a new face! And contrary to most people dragged out to space, he seems pretty dang happy.

Even humming thoughtfully, he sounds cheery. ]

You know~ I always wanted to try flying, so this isn't half bad! It's a lot higher up than I expected for my first time, but at least I didn't have to do it myself.

Well, actually, I don't think I did anything at all.

[ Even though his tone drops a bit, his smile doesn't. ]

Ahaha, it's pretty empty here for just me, isn't it? That isn't much fun at all.

[ He pauses for a moment. ]

I'm pretty lucky that I know how to use this, though~ Hey, hey, if anyone can see me, tell me!

[Del is peering at the screen, a bright smile on her lips and a vague look in her eyes.]

Give it time~

[carreau]

[ Oh, that's good, he was starting to think there weren't many others here at all. That'd be worse than being dead, by far. ]

Ahaha, I'm not very good at being patient, unfortunately!

[fishy_go_byebye]

That's okay, sometimes Barnabas has to remind me too.

[That's her agreeing with him, but meeting Del can always be a little difficult right off the bat.]

[carreau]

Is that a friend of yours?

video;

[fishy_go_byebye]

Yes~! He's very good at reminding me.

[carreau]

I don't have anyone like that right now~ So it's kind of like I can do whatever I want.

[Oh gosh, that is an exciting idea. Del leans forward towards the screen, her hair frizzing blue with delight.]

You could ride a hippo!

audio!

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I can see you... [he sounds like he's maybe next to an engine or something? there's a low mechanical whirring sound...] Welcome to the show, I guess.

(he doesn't care enough to change over from) video!

[carreau]

Huuuuh? I can't see you, though!

[ All the same, he waves at the screen... ]

A show sounds fun~ But I was kiiiind of in the middle of something, and if I suddenly disappeared and now I'm here, I might not be able to catch up.

[ Not that he sounds incredibly disappointed. ]

(he doesn't either it's cool)

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I'm on audio, that's why.

[man, what a strange-sounding guy!]

My condolences, though... You don't sound to stressed about it...

(what's cooler than being cool)

[carreau]

[ Suddenly, the video clicks off. Though he hasn't gone anywhere, really. ]

Oh, like this~ That was simple.

[ But then it's back on again, hi again! ]

Ahaha, I'm always this way, I've been through a lot worse, after all!

(ICE COLD...)

[birdsbirdsbirds]

What would you call a lot worse than being kidnapped and sent into space?

[he only half-expects any kind of an answer, but you don't get answers unless you ask questions!]

(alright alright alright alright alright alright alright alright alright alright)

[carreau]

[ Oh, Robin... ]

Well~ when I was younger, my parents put me in an institution where they'd do things like make us lie on a bed of spikes when we didn't listen. They had a looot of harsh punishments.

So this isn't bad at all~

(now hey now ladies)

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Ah. [an odd pause...] That does sound pretty terrible.

Why would they ever do a thing like that?

video; HIS SON

[onehundredswords]

Well ain't it good to see someone so lively! Everyone else is so down in the dumps.

video; OHHHH MY GOD THAT'S TERRIFYING...

[carreau]

Ahaha, that's just how I am, I guess~

There isn't much that bothers me.

PAPA IS HERE FOR YOU HENRY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS

[onehundredswords]

No foolin'? Me neither! Maybe I oughta swap someone in my crew out for you. You got an attitude way more befittin' of the SS bluefish.

HE KIND OF WANTS THE WOLF BACK INSTEAD

[carreau]

Or maybe I can just join you! The more, the merrier, right?

voice;

[payback]

Everyone can see this...

video;

[carreau]

Really? Ahaha, that's great! I'd rather not be the only one here, after all~

If you're really here, that is...

voice forever;

[payback]

Well, I'm not there with you, but I'm really here. On a different space ship.

[carreau]

Even on different ships, this works so well~

[ So impressed about technology, even with the augment. ]

But I haven't even been on a normal ship too many times, so I don't know the difference anyway!

[payback]

If you've been on a normal ship at all, I think you're ahead of the game for most people here. By the way, what's your name? [And how old are you... he sounds so enthusiastic...]

[carreau]

Ahaha, really? It really is nothing like a wooden ship, though!

[ Much less wooden, you see. ]

I'm Henry~ How about you?

[payback]

A wooden ship is a completely different story from a space ship anyway! [Don't you know anything, Henry? These are important distinctions!]

I'm Rin. Nice to meet you.
