✩ video (backdated) ; action (on different days)
Who: Kaname Buccaneer & Various!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Also yes!
When: Broadcast, the 10th; action, from 6th until they leave the system
[VIDEO; Public]
[The network's greeting with a smiling redhead, waving a little at the camera. From the looks of it, she's sitting at a desk aboard one of the ships, but not the sad excuse of one in their quarters. Heck yeah, personnel office.
As always, her tone is friendly, offering an easy approach should someone need it.]
When I think about it sometimes, the fact some people here don't have regular space travel back home is still hard for me to wrap my head around. For me, it's as normal as waking up in the morning. Going from planet to planet or system to system, for performances or otherwise, is so routine, I never bat an eye. It makes me wonder how close other worlds are from achieving the same thing. Or maybe you're already there.
[Only now does a striped mercat start shuffling across the desk in front of the camrea. Kaname chuckles a little, tucking some hair behind her ear before lifting him off and placing him in her lap.] I guess I want to know about that. Or maybe what's common for you but strange to others? Like back home, everyone knows the term Protoculture, but here... I think I'd be surprised if someone else did. If anyone wants to share, I'd love to hear it.
[She reaches forward, aware of the mercat's interest in the device, and turns off the feed.]
[SKATING-- anytime]
[Before the planet, Kaname never went ice skating, but she wanted to learn. Here, thanks to a lot of help from Freyja, she's beginning to get the hang of it. Someone might think that the grace and poise needed to dance and move as much as she does would translate well into this. For her, there's no such luck. Every so often she'll wobble and have to reach the edge of the lake or rink (she uses both) to steady herself. But she's determined. Skate with her, laugh at her, offer her a helping hand or hot drink.]
[SHOPPING-- anytime]
[The little attack concert Kaname and Freyja pulled in the previous system netted them a good amount of credits in ratings, so what else is there to do but spend some of it? Despite receiving her performance equipment complete with fold carbon outfit changes, someone is wanting an expanded wardrobe, as well as decorations for her office and room. Clothes, decor, and more practical supplies are all on her list.]
[SINGING-- most days]
[One thing a singer should never do is not practice. Whether she's in the dance studio, the gym, or even out for a run on the Iskaulit, she can often be heard singing a few different songs. Some are more common than others, but there's a variety. Only rarely is she quiet or simply humming. Her job requires her to project, so she does just that.]
[OTHER-- ???]
[Something not here? Create your own!]
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Also yes!

What is that creature?
video
[He's put his front end back on the desk and tilts his head at the camera.]
Back home, he's a shared pet amongst a few of us.
Re: video
A mercat! That's amazing! Are mercats common where you're from?
video
[She scratches his head with a finger.]
video
[And the reason why he's glad she brought up such a topic!]
video
[Yep, she's serious about all of this.]
video
That sounds unusual, or at least it is where I'm from. We don't have a species of human like that.
[Though now he wonders if someone has an ability that allows them to breathe under water.]
The only thing that's common where I'm from that isn't for others are people having abilities... magic-like abilities, if you will. I've never been questioned about anything else.
video
[For complicated reasons she won't go into at the moment.]
Hm, well, we don't have anything like that-- just species specific abilities.
video
video
video
I don't know what any of those are, but perhaps... your world is more advanced than mine? As far as species goes.
video
video
[A thoughtful look as he thinks this over.]
How does this place compare for you? Is it similar to what you're used to?
video
There are entire fleets with cities and farms and schools. Multiple species populate most of them, so it's never hard to find someone different.
