Video/Action. scars and hearts (not an emo song from 2002)
Who: Takeshi and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: SS Goldstone
When: Feb. 13th for broadcast / Valentine's Day for Goldstone option.
[Video.]
I was just thinking about scars... I mean — umm! That sounds kind of weird, doesn't it. But I got a few, and I was thinking about how people who fight got a lot of them. How do you feel about yours...? The kinds you get when you fight. I have one here — [He pulls the fleet's custom jumpsuit to show a nasty scar on his shoulder.] from when I got shot! And this one — [He holds up one of his legs, floundering a little to keep it in the screen. His head isn't even in the shot anymore as he struggles to balance; the scar, unlike the rounder one before, is thin and longer.]
I got this one when I broke my leg fighting a godman! And this one...!
[He sits up, pointing to the little scar on his arm.]
This was when I was hitting cannibals with trees!
And this one —
[He holds up the other foot, where a littler scar sits on the top of his foot.]
... I kicked a table on accident once.
How about you guys?
[Action | Goldstone]
[February 14th... Morning.
Well. The ship sudddenly looks...
... Frightening. Child-cut hearts everywhere, balloons, confetti, more hearts, more confetti, all over the tables, the hallway, the doors of everyone in the crew; it is V-Day pandemonium. And judging from Takeshi's happy little hum as he sits at the table and cuts out more hearts, the person who had caused this chaos is hardly a mystery. Even Hoi Hoi the panda is sitting nearby, gnawing on a squeaky toy and wearing pink and red and white beads like he's two pawsteps away from Mardi Gras.
... Happy Valentine's Day. (˵ ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°˵)ﾉ⌒♡ (◕▿◕✿)]

[Spoken at the gunshot wound on the abdomen, that is. They're shot buddies!
Though he's really feeling bad for Carl's luck, all things considered. Sure, Takeshi's been shot back home, but when you wake back up in the apartment nothing ever lasted. He hasn't a single scar from his days on missions... He doesn't seem disturbed or anxious about talking through this, though — the implied missing eye is only met with quiet focus. It's important to pay attention to someone's scar story.]
It makes sense not to be okay, if it's one you got no choice sharing...
But... if it means anything, it's really cool that you're strong enough to survive it!
You're — You're badass!
video;;
Carl doesn't really know what he expected from Takeshi, but being called a badass wasn't. He looks surprised, a smile spreading across his face as he ducks his head. He really doesn't think he is, but if others do, he won't convince them otherwise. ]
I don't feel it sometimes, but thanks.
video;;
I think that's normal. You see yourself real differently than others do, I think... Like... everyone sees me as a kid, and I know I am, but... I dunno... I don't feel like a normal kid anymore; you know what I mean?
video;;
Killing your mom does that. Do not recommend, though. 0/10, bad time. ]
You're doing things that adults are doing. Does it even make you a kid anymore, or are you just an adult trapped in a kid's body? Ah-- sorry. That wasn't really what your message was about, anyway.

[He shrugs, looking a little sheepish.]
... I don't have very many people to talk to about it that understand.

video;;
It's important not to feel alone. When my adopted mom and dad vanished before, I felt alone, but you gotta just keep moving or bad things'll happen while you're distracted.
video;;
Bad things happen anyway, that's kind of how the world works, but you're right. You have to stay on your toes so nobody gets let down.
video;;
It's just hard not to loss some of your good feelings sometimes, too... Like... I dunno how to put it...
Sometimes you start feeling like it's taking away the good pieces from you. Because if you don't take those good pieces out, you'll feel really hurt or sad... [He scratches the nape of his neck, sheepish while he's thinking on it.] I'm not sure if it makes sense.
