Who: Doudanuki & everyboooooody rock your-- wait no
Broadcast: Yes
Action: SS Caprine
When: Oct 9
[Voice to Caprine]
[Well... that was that then. Kai was gone, Ezri Dax was gone, Bones was gone, so now he was the last member of the crew that was around when he first arrived. He'd feared things would come to pass like this, but as soon as he saw that his quarters had moved from his own small bunk to the larger captain's quarters, he had to accept his fate.
And so he sent out a shipwide broadcast.]
...So this is Doudanuki Masakuni and apparently I'm your new captain. [Can you hear the enthusiasm in his voice? It's about as lively as a dead fish] So I'm gonna need a first mate. I don't plan on disappearin' anytime soon, but havin' someone around to help would be... [Well] helpful. Especially 'cause some of you are new.
And in case you're wonderin', I'm not human, so if you got human stuff you need help with, I ain't the one to do it. [a beat] Sorry.
[Voice: OPEN]
[Speeeeaking of.]
For people who knew them, Ezri Dax and Kai Gracen have both returned. Hopefully, they're safe and sorry for the late announcement, but... [Well, a planet was blowing up.
He clears his throat.] Things got busy.
Anyone got any tips on how to be a captain? Especially tips for a non-human who has to take care of a bunch of humans now?

[Or get flattened by a meteor. Seriously guys. If the sword can make it out, so can you.]
I figured if there's something they actually want, they can do it themselves. I ain't a babysitter - I'm a sword. I'm lookin' more for what they'd need. So far I got food and listening to their weird feelings.
Voice
Wait- Did. Did you just say you're a sword?
[ Rokurou's current mental image is of a literal talking sword right now, please don't change it. ]
Voice
[Didn't he? He checks his message one more time, running it through in his head.
also omg, Rokurou....no....]
Yeah, I did. I thought everyone knew I was a sword at this point.
Voice
[ Maybe he should actually be keeping an eye on these things after all, if it meant he could get opportunities like getting to meet a talking sword. ]
But I guess that explains the human confusion thing pretty well.
Voice
[He had made an announcement awhile ago, too, but perhaps this guy wasn't on the Fleet yet? His voice sounds kind of familiar though...]
And yep. Even if I've had a this human body for about two years now, it still don't change the fact that I ain't human or that I didn't exactly hang around humans a lot. Most of my time was spent fightin' in wars or sitting in warehouses.
Voice
[ Weird- wait. ]
Human body- aw so you're not an actual sword anymore? Bummer.
[ Focusing on the important things here. ]
Voice
I'm still a sword. My real body is my vessel - this is my manifestation.
Voice
Huh... okay, yeah, I think I follow. That's cool.
-Oh yeah, I used to be human, but it's been a while. Basic body needs is easy, the emotional stuff I don't relate to much anymore.
Voice
...Used to be?
[That can only mean one of two things - either he's dead and a ghost, or?]
What, did you ascend or something?
Voice
[ His first instinct is to laugh, loud and disbelieving at the idea of him being an ascended being. Man, the exorcists would've had a fit if they'd overheard that. ]
Nah- definitely not, more the opposite way. I'm someone who turned into a daemon.
