Video/Action- First Pirate Transmission

[hollowvictor]

Who: Panem!Bucky
Broadcast: Yes
Action: The Bridge of the Wonderduck
When: Now

[The video opens with a view of Bucky's face, hair short, face scruffy and a steel determination in his expression as though challenging the very fleet to suddenly do something and prove all his paranoid assumptions correct.]

The last time I was on a show for other's entertainment, we were made to fight and kill each other until only one person was left. Supposedly that's not the case here. Yet.

I assume some of you have been making attempts to learn more about this place and the people behind it.

[A pause. 'What do you know' was on the tip of his tongue, but he was the offworlder now. He didn't hold a single damn card in his hand he knew it too well. He hated it. He'd have to change that.]

What do we know?

[Anyone on the ship itself for any reason will find Bucky at the comms station, waiting for responses and seeing exactly how far the system would allow him to hack until the firewalls caught him. Sometimes you had to test the strength of the bars when you were in a cage.]

At the time, it seemed like a punishment. Like they were trying to remind of us our place. Now... [She shrugs. She's not so sure now, but it's still on the table.]

We got new hosts at the same time. There was a short broadcast. They seem to have liquidated the old ones.

[So signs they weren't the only ones being punished.]

As far as I know, there wasn't anything similar before the first round, but you'd have to verify with someone who was there at the time. There are a few of them still around.

That happened a lot back home too. If someone who was supposed to have control over the tributes showed weakness, that maybe they didn't have as much control as they were supposed to, they were executed quietly and replaced.

Sounds like whoever the 'hosts' are definitely isn't the power. There's someone above them.

[But that was hardly surprising either.]

I'll look into it. If I find any more patterns, I'll let you know.

I'd like to hear about it if you do. [She means it, too. They can use more eyes and ears, anyone who might know what it is they're seeing.]

Your conclusions match mind. Whoever's really behind this, they haven't shown their face yet.

Or if they have, they haven't let us know it yet.
