Broadcast: Fleet-wide; video.
Action: Marsiva folks! All........uh, two of us?
When: Early evening? Whenever??

[ 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!

Comments

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?

(lend me some sugar, i am your neighbor!)

[carreau]

They never cared about me, as long as I can remember. So it was probably more convenient that way~

[ Yeah, he still sounds just as cheerful. ]

(/shakes it like a polaroid picture)

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[IS THIS GUY FOR REAL wow.]

Hah, interesting... You almost sound like you're making it up, you're very casual about that.

(omg the picture developed properly i'm so happy)

[carreau]

Hmmm? Why would I lie about something like that?

[ Not even in one of those falsely-innocent ways, like he honestly has no idea why. ]

( :D )

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I don't know why you would... It just sounds a little outlandish in that tone, I suppose.

But I have yet to find a bed of spikes around here, so--I suppose you're completely right to not be quite so concerned about the ship you're on.

[carreau]

[ His tone? There's nothing wrong with his tone!! ]

I always sound like this! Because of all of that, nothing really bothers me at all~

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Well... [he chuckles~] Welcome aboard, Mockingbird.

[carreau]

Ahaha, I'm Henry~

[ Though that works too. ]

Nice to meet you~

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I'm Robin. Like the bird. Nice to meet you too.

It sounds like you'll get put on another ship soon, so sit tight.

[carreau]

That's a nice name~ Do you like birds?

[ After all, it'd be kind of silly if he didn't. ]

How do you know about that? Can you see the future?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I love birds.

[have you seen his username?]

And there was an announcement about something like that... a little while ago. Seeing the future is one of the few things I can't do, I'll admit.

[carreau]

Ahaha, me too! I'm good at making friends with them~

[ BIRD FRIENDS...... ]

Mm, that's too bad...

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Hah, are you? That's a cute talent...

[carreau]

You think so? I'm really just a normal guy who likes making friends with animals, it's not thaaat special~

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Most people don't go around making friends with animals, that I know of.

Though, what do I know--maybe things are different on your world.

[carreau]

Well, maybe it's a little weird, but that's okay! I like animals, after all.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Hah. Whatever makes you happy, man.

[carreau]

Ahaha! So, are robins your favorite kind of bird~?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I'm actually more fond of finches. They're very cute.
