BACKDATED TO THE 1ST

Who: Kaname, Freyja, and YOU
Broadcast: Yep!
Action: Sure, if they're by the Bloodsport wreckage on the hellplanet.
When: The 1st

[When the video opens, Kaname and Freyja are both visible, sitting next to each other and they look kinda scratched up and generally not in the best of shape (though not really terribly off, either.) Freyja waves energetically at everyone before actually saying something.]

Hoina! Eheh, so, Kaname-san and I wanna let everyone know somethin' we found out 'cause it could be useful, especially if you're down here.

[Kaname nods, a small smile on her face.] The short version is we're singers back home, and our voices can have an effect on different things. We weren't sure how that would play out here at first, but we've found they do work against the Vieziri. When confronted, they're stalled or severely slowed. Right now, we don't have an estimate on how long it holds them for, but it's likely it would be enough time to gain some distance if it came to that.

[And then Freyja interjects again, with another wave at the camera.] Soooooooo, if you need any help, you should ask! 'Cause we might be able to do somethin' about it, especially if the Vieziri keep comin' after you. We'll do our best to help anyone that needs it.

[And she looks thoughtful for a second.] Ehh... there was somethin' else too, wasn't there?

[The older singer chuckles and pats her shoulder.] Additionally, it's stronger with the two of us together, since we amplify each other's voices, even if one of us will do in a pinch. Please don't hesitate to ask if you'd like some company on a scavenging trip. Please note, we're no substitute for anyone with actual combat skills, so do be safe in that regard as well.

And yes, there is.
[Kaname can't help but shake her head a little in amusement.] Once everything here is taken care and we're back in orbit, we'd like to consult with an engineer about hopefully building us some equipment similar to what we use back home. You will be compensated for your time, of course.

Mmhm! We can describe it and everything if that's what you're gonna need. It can wait, but we wanted to ask anyway just in case! It'd help us protect ourselves if we ever had to go in a fight. [So with that, Freyja shrugs. That mostly covers what they needed to say right now.] Sooo, just let us know, okay? We're listenin', promise! [And then, in true Walkure fashion, she throws the Walkure gangsign.]

[There's a final nod from Kaname and an accompanying W before she leans forward to turn off the camera.]

[Did they just flip everyone off?? is the question that remains in Sokka's mind. He kind of wants to ask, but that would probably come off as rude. They seemed like they genuinely wants to help people, so best stay on their good side. ]

So you have...magic voices? That's what I'm getting here. I mean, I prefer sticking to a sword myself, but whatever helps the fight, right?

I'm an engineer. Never done anything around music before, but I'd be willing to give it a try.

[So... singing abilities? That's what it sounds like to him.]

How interesting. I haven't heard of anything like that before! How over are you of being used to help soothe someone to sleep?

[Sup, Sokka. He's met with a chuckle from Kaname.]

It's not magic, no, but it is pretty difficult to explain to someone not from our world. People are generally born with it, and it usually only works through singing. So it can be tricky to find people with similar abilities if they aren't singers.

For example, one of our friends has it as well, but he's a pilot. We found it when his abilities resonated with Freyja's voice.

[And the other thing!] Our request isn't music related, not really, so there's no need to worry about that.

[She looks at him a little confused.]

What do you mean? No one's asked us that yet, at least not here.

[The Benders tell him they're not magical and he still refuses to believe them so yup. Magical singing. That is now cemented in his mind. ]

So he...flies your... whatever and sings with you guys? And you can control uh...other beings?

[Were he from Earth, he'd equate that to sirens, but alas, he is not. Such a tragedy. ]

Cool! What is it that you need?
alwayscomeback: (But I will hold on hope)

[He can't make sense of it with science, so he's going to keep calling it magic in his head. Everyone can join Katara in wishing he'd broaden his horizons a bit in that regard. ]

Well, any way that chills these guys out long enough for us to get the upper hand is absolutely welcome. We're out of options to be precious about that kinda thing now.

Great, well, I can do my best to make just about anything. My ship has an engineer upgrade, so I have a loooot of inventing stuff there.

[It's anime science. It's definitely close enough.]

He flies a plane, but doesn't sing. The singing enhances his abilities, giving him an edge in battle. [She shakes her head.] No, we don't control anyone. Back home, that's what we fought against. Like I mentioned, it stalls them, seems to hold them in place.

[They've had similar comparisons before.]

The easiest way to describe it would be a propellant garment. [ROCKET SKIRT] But it should wait until we leave the system-- there are more pressing matters right now.

[Well, note to self...! He laughs upon hearing that.]

That's amazing, actually. To think no one here has thought of it already, especially with the difficult times we face!

What a shame! Anyone would be lucky to have a real lullaby sang to them!

Ohhh, so it's like a boost? Like how a full moon makes Water Benders stronger. I can get that. [And that IS good to hear. Otherwise, he'd be slightly worried that could fall into misuse- maybe not even consciously on their part. Who knows how Atroma can meddle with things. ] That'll be something, better than nothing, which is basically what we're running on right now.

I...have no idea what one of those are, but I agree we shouldn't drop those guns until we know we're getting the heck out of here.

You discovered all that and didn't take a scratch. How impressive. [Blatantly untrue. Man, she is so judging you guys right now. In a concerned kind of way.]

Where are you?
namisan: (lemon...hypnotising...)

[personal profile] namisan 2017-11-09 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
Magical singing, huh? [Contrary to her last communication, Nami is a lot more lively. And wry. But you're both okay, so.]

Handy skill.

I am continually surprised by how much I'm willing to accept just right off...

Do you think you could sing to one of us to give us a revelation on how to fix the mess they made of the ships? Or to keep us energized while we work? Something like that...
axi: <user name="axi"> (aww how cute)

[personal profile] axi 2017-11-09 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
For some people, yes, it can be. [But it's exactly like that.] It's difficult to tell sometimes, but it's happened on a few occasions.

[Kaname nods in agreement, smiling.] I can give you a better idea of what the basic premise is if you're still up for it after all this.

[Katie's met with a warm chuckle.] Have I said thanks for the ride yet? If not, I feel I need to.

We had a fighter with us, covering our backs, but we did discover this during that time. Otherwise, it's been work attempting go repair our ship. We're at the Bloodsport right now. Are you all right?

[personal profile] axi 2017-11-09 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
Not really magic, but it's hard to explain... [She gives a sort of weak laugh.]

We got lucky discovering it, honestly. How are you?
axi: <user name="axiality"> (s'all good now)

[personal profile] axi 2017-11-09 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
It's good to keep an open mind, if nothing else. [Ha ha...]

Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way, not normally at least. [Kaname seems a little contemplative now.] If you mean physically re-energize you, likely not, but one of the things we do back home is keep morale up. We're more than happy to do that.

[Now he's curious...!]

What's the coolest thing you've done with your voices?

[Now Kaname is sighing a little at Freyja's response.]

To elaborate, she means our singing resonated with ruins on one planet, and that allowed us to open a wormhole to another with the same ruins. ... and yes, our voices are used to cure the Var, which is a syndrome that causes ordinary people to go berserk. We were able to cure that, as well as prevent future outbreaks.
