Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: SS Twin Roses
When: August 6

[Here is a little redhead, glass of wine in hand, who appears to be right-side up, yet in the background everything appears to be… upside down? The kitchen is upside down, apparently.]

Question for all of you. It’s been brought to my attention numerous times that some of you don’t come from a world where people have fancy kinds of powers.

For those of you who do, what kind of powers have you experienced? How do yours work? I’ve heard some say theirs are elemental based, while others are based on magic.

For those of you who don’t, have you ever wondered what having special powers is like? There has to be something more interesting than, say, if you were invisible, you'd spy on someone.

[And then he cuts the feed.]

Everything I know of, but we're talking about magic and that's not something I know a lot about. Fairy tales, mostly. [He thinks of Bigby, and finds himself missing the wolf with a sharpness that he'd thought dulled.]

You know, our communications officer knows a bit more about the subject than I do.

[Chuuya nods.]

Makes sense that he would know. I saw him working on some magic theories a while ago. He seems like a knowledgeable guy.

I wouldn't know. The only magic I'm familiar with were in the fairy tales my mother told me, so anything beyond that is going to seem like a great deal in comparison.

Is that how you walk on the walls, magic?

It can be seen as magic.

[He could see how others would consider it magic, anyway.]

Some are born with special abilities, and some aren't. I can do more than walk on ceilings. Thankfully you haven't needed to see anything else, which means you haven't pissed me off yet.

And I can be seen as a good man, but that's just bad lighting and delusions.

[Sorry Kitty.]

Hm. Except for the magic part, sounds like my world. I was born just as blue as I am right now.

[mrfancyhat]

Are... are there other blue people?

[A little hesitant to ask, but he is legitimately curious.]

Re: video

[ecclesiophobic]

I'm the same shade of blue as my mother. Same eyes, too.

[At least, when he's not wearing the red contacts to cut the glow from them. Unfortunately, Kurt's forgotten he's wearing them.]

Thankfully, I didn't inherit her red hair. I have no idea how she managed not to look garish.

Re: video

It takes practice.

[Chuuya laughs.]

You learn how to make red hair look good.
