Take Your Tradition and Shove It
Who: Nami and you
Broadcast: Yep
Action: Bloodsport / Space Bar, Iskaulit
When: Now-ish
[Nami sleeps in an hour past the start of her shift at the Space Bar because the Atroma have always had such excellent timing. When she finally blinks awake, all icy sweat and teary-eyed, she spends a good few minutes slowly convincing herself it was just a bad dream, not actual, y'know, memories, which is a pretense that lasts all the way until she sits up and catches sight of herself in the mirror.
Welp.
There's no definites, on either side. That's something to think about. She checks the time and date on her comm, realises she's only lost an extra half day, and pings the bar staff on duty to let them know she's running late. She can have her depressing existential crisis later. Runs through the shower and skids out into the cargo bay with her hair still damp and her backpack over her shoulder and--
And--????
There's a giant thing staggering around in here with yellow feathers sticking out awkwardly from the most godawful wrapping paper she's ever seen--]
[Indignant Video]
Hey! [This here's a redhead with a lot more hair this morning, looking pissed.] Who the hell left the giant bird in our cargo bay? You can't just wrap a living creature in that much--
KWAAA!?
[She breaks off, startled, to glance over her shoulder at the crackling sound and sudden rumbling of something heading this way.It's a wildebeest herd And then has just enough time for a shriek before the comm goes flying , which means maybe all you get after that is a blur of yellow feathers and pink flamingo wrapping paper that's on fire (who giftwrapped the electric bird seriously) and a whole lot of joyful bird sounds who just ran over his favourite navigator sort of accidentally, but that's Biri for you. JFC, bird.
Muffled and in the distance, after a few moments--]
...never mind. I'm gonna be later.
[She recognises him now the wrapping paper has kind of burnt to ash, that's for sure. Ow.]
-------
[She will eventually get to the Space Bar with all due apologies, so you can catch up with her there. Or order a drink. She's in a better mood than when she woke up, at least. Giant idiot birds will do that to you. Even if they singe your hair a little at the same time.]

[Never mind she'd been awake for an hour at this point, it's the principal of the thing, god. Also she's only on screen for a hot second before this big yellow face shoves its way into the video feed:
SUP SMALL TALKING PICTURE]
--Biri, get off!
Re: video
What is that?!
video
What, you never seen a bird before? [She kids. There's a sigh, then Nami grins faintly.] He's a friend from home. Real enthusiastic. Watch your hair.
Re: video
[Not that he might not later, as he's been seeing some pretty unusual things since leaving Earth, but still... for now? Definitely weird.]
Does it like hair or something?
video
[Let her make a visual point. She holds up one of the locks of her hair. It's still smoking from the electric trample attack.]
Re: video
I'll make sure to avoid letting it touch my hair, then?
[Confused!boy was confused.]

Re: video
[Keith gave her a small smile.]
It seems like a lot of people are getting stuff from home, huh?

Re: video

He is smaller than he was at home, so... I guess that's something.
Re: video
[Keith smirked juuuuust a little.]
video
He'd drag me all over the place if I even tried. [Might be smaller, but she bets he's still twice as heavy.] He'll be okay.
