Waking up on the Marsiva

[Manji awakens with a start and falls out of the welcome bunk with a shout.]

RIN! I’M COMING!

[The slam on the floor is what first helps him realise that he’s not where he was before. There wasn’t nearly enough snow.] Where the hell am I? [His voice is gruff and angry. He is in no mood for games as he strides down the hall, a surly, scarred man in a black and white kimono. Missing an arm doesn’t make him any less intimidating.] Where am I? Who is responsible for this!? SHOW YOURSELF!

[Rin was freezing somewhere! He didn’t have time for being out among the stars! He needed to--- wait, did he just pass a window with nothing but stars outside?

He stops and trails back to stare dumbly at the window.] Oh… [Well, that’s different.]

”Accidental” Video - Open to All

[Sometime after Manji and Makie are reunited and have gotten past that whole: My boss wants me to kill your boss thing - oh, god please don’t hurt me Makie awkwardness, the video feed on Manji’s device is turned on-- only the video is very shaky and being filmed upside down.

And there’s a very “mansplainy” voice being broadcast out to everyone.] --and that’s how that works. At least I think it works that way. Now this thing! [The camera is given a vigorous shake.] I’ll be honest. I’m not really sure what this thing is for. I just found it. It’s very loud. Kind of annoying, really.

...here.

[A slender hand reaches into view briefly, and then the communicator is carefully set the right way up. Makie stares down at it briefly, then retreats out of sight to leave Manji staring blankly in her wake.]

Eh? What’d you do that for? [He hasn’t figured out he’s broadcasting yet, but he has figured out one thing.]

Wait. Do you know what this is? [He shakes the camera in Makie’s direction, sounding completely shocked.

Makie...just stares at him. Predictably.]

(OOC: In the video you may get Manji or Makie. If you want just one or the other please let us know! If you want them both in an action thread just let us know otherwise it will just be Manji on action.)

What's a pool? [A bar he can understand.] And how do I get off this ship to get to one of the bars?

Swimming pool? It's like a fake pond you can swim in. Also cleaner than a pond.

You don't get off the Marsiva until they place you somewhere. You'll get assigned to another ship. Once you end up there you can take a shuttle over to the Iskaulit.

How do we get on the other ship once we've been assigned? Does someone come for us or do the doors just open? [He's hoping someone comes so he can have someone to hit.]

You just appear. There's no warning or process. And then suddenly confetti and pudding and a new ship.

I would ask how that is possible, but I suppose it's the same way they got me up in space without my knowing.

You got it in one. They pretty much do whatever they want whether it seems feasible or not.

Well, that's annoying. They sound like a spoiled child who needs to be told 'no'. [Manji is happy to assist with that 'no' lesson.] If they are a spoiled child then they'll mess up sooner or later.

I think they may be spoiled, technologically advanced adults, but maybe they'll mess up eventually anyway.

Everyone messes up. Especially people who think they're smart and hold all the keys. [He broke out of prison recently thanks to "smart" people like that.] Just need to be patient.

You know you're saying that to someone who has already been here over two years, right?

Two yea-shit! And you really haven't found a way back yet? What have you been doing for those two years? [Taking a nap!?]

Weren't you the one who just said we should be patient?

Not two years patient! I mean, like... a day or two patient!

I did more than being patient. I had a funnel cake and went swimming a couple of times. Busy. Busy.

What the hell is funnel cake? And how is eating sweets and swimming suppose to be helping?

[He sees your sarcasm and raises with indignant snark.]

It's fried joy topped with powdered awesome and it's helped me plenty. I'm sorry you don't see the beauty of it.

[He scoffs.] Is every woman obsessed with sweets?

Yes, of course. We're all exactly the same. While also being entirely mysterious and unreadable.

I thought "space girls" would have been smarter than that by now. [He's in no mood to not be an ass.]

You're welcome to find your way out faster. I won't stop you.

Maybe I'll let you know when I find it. That is if you're not too busy stuffing food into your mouth then. [He's had a really bad day. Snarking makes it just a little bit better.]

Oh, I'm sure I will be. Girl and all. [The driest of dry.] That or having pillow fights in my underwear.

Why would you fight with a pillow? [The underwear part he can appreciate.]

Because all the long feathers are already taken?

What does long feathers--

[Hold on. He's suddenly distracted by another voice from the communicator. One Kitty is likely familiar with.]

Hey! [Shouted at Kurt's voice.] You can jus-
