Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: The Heron, if you want
When: now

So do ya'll do that every month, or did I get lucky missin' out on all the fun? [you can practically hear the air quotes around "fun"]

Anyway, call it curiosity or boredom if you want, but has anyone else done this song and dance before? I'm talkin' about the gettin' dragged to other worlds nonsense, but if any of ya'll come from a world with space travel, humor and me and tell me about that, too. I'll even give points out for someone who manages to surprise me with somethin' new.

[he pauses before he ends the video]

Hell, why not - if Oceanic Flight 815 means anything to you, come on down and let's chat.

It's what the folks say when they want Scotty to teleport 'em back to the ship. Star Trek reference.

[he still gets points for understanding Back to the Future]

If it makes ya feel better, ain't seen my home country in three years either. But it wasn't 'cuz I was being tossed around different worlds - where ya from?

I do not believe I have seen that one.

No? Why have you not seen it? I expect it is too much to guess at travel? [Probably nothing so pleasant. ] Thedas. It is an... unpleasant world.

It was a television show first, then a bunch of movies. They're classics where I'm from.

I was stuck on a semi-deserted island. [it's . . . technically true] Yeah? Why's that?

Oh, I may see if they are on the Fleet network.

Ah, I see. That would just about do it. I hope you managed to get away? To...whatever constitutes as home. [Because it's on fire 99% of the time. ] There are too many reasons to number, war, dark magic, demons, holes in the sky raining DOWN demons. There is little there for me.

If they aren't then that's a damn shame.

I did, how do you think I ended up here? Wherever I feel like is home, honestly. I live on the road, so to speak. [. . . ] Oh, so it's one of those worlds.

Oh, I see. I understand. Home can be a difficult thing.

[He couldn't even come to call Kirkwall his home- not even after a decade of living there. This place is the closest to a home he's ever truly felt.]

Hm. I have little intention of going back, if I can help it.

Guess so. Can't say I've given it much thought.

[that's a big ol' lie but he isn't getting into it if he can' help it]

No? Gonna do some world hoppin' if you can't stay here?

That is the plan. The captain of my ship happens to captain a space ship back home. He has offered to take me aboard his ship, should the opportunity arise.

Yeah? That's good, I guess. Especially if you ain't tired of space yet.

I rather like the idea of moving around, even if it is in space. Admittedly more of it is for the company, though.

Ain't it always more for the company, though?

[There's a soft sound that's almost, almost amusement. ]

You may have a valid point there.
