Who: Gil and OPEN
Broadcast: Video
Action: Blameless
When: Probably today, but like forwarded to take place when it's super late. It's another 3am type broadcast that he doesn't think will reach anyone when it goes up, but is willing to have people respond to when they are awake at a decent time - or not at all. Insomnia!Gil is the worst.


[The video starts with a model of a ship in the forefront. The name Tempest on the side of it is clearly visible. In the background is the engine room to the Blameless, and then a stock of red hair comes into view before Gil's face follows it.]

You know what we need? More model ships. Of the entire Fleet. You know, you could have one of the Iskaulit which is bigger than most of the others. One for the Marsiva but the rule is you only get to play with it once and then never again.

[He grins at the idea.]

The model of the Blameless would be the cutest. I'm sorry to say for the rest of you lot. That's just the facts.

And this one would be the prettiest. [He picks up the Tempest and makes to fly her around in a single motion of his hand.] But she's one of a kind. And mine.

Does it? Should I ask why?

[Because you're a space nerd, Shiro, that's why. After taking a nice look at the model (handling it carefully of course), Shiro hands it back to Gil.]

I do like the idea. If we get to a more technological planet next time, we could look for a place with 3D printing.

Now you're making me sound like an engineer. [All in good teasing! He's amused.]

That would be great. Go ahead, Gil, get those plans ready when you have the time. Even if the next planet isn't very good, sooner or later we'll get our chance.

I'm not allowed to answer that, my team from home has two engineers. [And they would eat him alive if he said another person was the best.]
