Who: The Iron Bull & You!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: HS Marsiva, SS Heron, SS Iskaulit and beyond!
When: 4/30-5/4 (Marsiva and that broadcast), 5/5 for the Heron, anytime in the month of May for the rest!
↨ Arrival aboard the Marsiva/his first week ↨
[Before the seven foot, heavily muscled and grey-skinned (which is obvious due to the fact he isn't wearing a shirt)...man with exceptionally prominent horns stirs on the plush bed on the Hospitality Deck, he sniffs and immediately frowns.]
Weird.
[His voice is a deep, slow baritone, with a slight accent that's difficult to place. The transmission is coming from his blind side, though, which is obvious by the eye-patch over where his left eye should be.
He hasn't noticed the camera. He moves to a sitting position, large hands on the edges of the bed and sniffs again, this time himself. And then he snorts.]
Weirder.
[He shakes his head (which is impressive with those horns) as though to clear and stands, giving a look around. To say the big guy looks uneasy is an understatement...and then he notices the huge viewing bay.
It's hard to say what's more disturbing to the giant: the idea that he somehow knows he's drifting through the fast openness of existence, or the simple act of looking at it, but he swallows. Hard. And turns away from the window, taking a seat back on the cot, which creaks slightly but holds.]
...shit. That's...a lot of nothing out there.
[Right out there. Through some glass. Shit.]
(OOC: If you want to just continue the TDM thread, that's cool! Just let me know, and you're totally free to PM this journal)
↨ Arrival aboard the SS Heron, Bridge | Saturday (5/05) ↨
[You know, it's one thing to keep a guy locked up on some weird ship after you kidnapped him, shoved something in his head, and gave him a bath. It's another to randomly move him to some other place surrounded by consoles and glowing lights, shower him with confetti, and just leave him there. Without a warning.
The Bull was a massive form to suddenly appear on the bridge of the SS Heron, and the startled cry and step back did nothing but rap his horns sharply against whatever delicate instrument was behind him at the time and send a painful vibration through his skull.]
Shit! [He took a heavy breath to calm his rising panic. It's fine. No weirder than what was out there.] Tight quarters in here. [The remark was muttered to himself for than anything as he carefully moved a hand to the top of his head to massage away the beginnings of a headache and gave a look around.]
Wherever the hell here is. [He could only assume it was one of the ships in the fleet, but which one? He'd been told there were several of them.]
↨ SS Iskaulit | OTA and Whenever ↨
[He couldn't be more relieved to know this ship existed. Getting there was weird, just knowing how to fly the shuttle, and if he thought about that too much he started to get real twitchy, so he decided to just think of the thing in his head as...like knowing where to aim a swing to take off a guy's head in one blow. You didn't think about where to swing. You just did and off it popped. Yeah. Flying the shuttle was like that.
Bullshit, but it was enough of a comfort to keep him sane, at least for a little while. Now this place? It was going to take a lot of exploration to really get a feel for it. It was almost possible, wandering the random collections of establishments, to ignore the fact that this was all in a giant ship floating in the middle of space. He wasn't difficult to spot, at 7'5" tall and at least three feet wide (with some really impressive horns), and as he gets more acquainted with the fleet over the course of the month, between travelling to planets and whatnot, he'll be found here on off-hours more often than not. You know, if he's not enjoying the fact that there's actual air somewhere.
He can be encountered at a number of establishments throughout, actually, though being the only naturally occurring mountain in a place that's completely fabricated, he steers clear Maab's Sceptre...because there's just something not right about that thing. Maybe it's because it's the only thing around that is right, but...yeah. Space Bar's a nice dive, and he's there pretty often, willing to chat up anyone to walks in, and share a drink...or a few...more. The smells from the Melting Pot get his attention, too, and something other than the fake crap on the Heron is always welcome.]

vikael, or on Discord at prettyvikael#0221! I will most likely be doing some stuff with the system and I'd love to plot something out with people! Otherwise, I'll probably throw him at other peoples' things!)

Heron;;
It was almost familiar, and at this point, the Bull was grasping at anything that was.]
You the one in charge around here?
Heron;;
[ This guy looks like he's seen some shit, too. He holds himself in a controlled manner. Power below the surface, but waiting. He holds out his left hand, the plates of his metal arm shifting as he does. ]
Bucky Barnes.
no subject
Weird. Really weird.]
Well, looks like I'm yours, whatever that means. I'm not a sailor.
[Just a beat passes as he releases Bucky's hand.]
What's with the arm?
no subject
Means whatever you want it to. There's always maintenance to be done, however big or small. I take care of what I can of it.
[ Jeez, this guy is huge.. He barely reaches the guy's tits.. ]
Lost it in the war. Got an upgrade.
no subject
[And as huge as he is, he's clearly used to looking down at people and not looming over them. He's talking on the level with this guy.]
Nice. Besides being shiny, what's it do?
[He'll bother with "what war" when they have more beer.]
no subject
[ He instantly appreciates talking on the level. ]
It's pretty damn good at hitting things.
no subject
Old ship?
[Maybe it was a stretch, but that was the sort of thing that sounded right. He just...wasn't going to question why it sounded right.]
Yeah? Sounds like that arm and I have something in common, Boss. Maybe we should see how they stack up sometime.
no subject
[ Bucky raises his eyebrows, surprised. Most people don't want to go head to head with that thing. ]
Yeah? I'll take that wager. There's a gym on the Iskaulit. Nice and out of the way of breaking shit.
no subject
[But he's grinning because...hell yeah, a gym. That sounded like a place that was big. Open.]
Qunari are tough, boss. We don't go down easy. Most of the time it takes more than one human to pull it off, so I'm interested.
no subject
I've got a little more in me than most humans, so you might be surprised.
