Who: ANYONE!
Broadcast: ANYTHING!
Action: Probably either on or around the October planet!
When: Within the first couple of days that the planet shows up.

[holy shit you guys there is a planet, like, an actual planet now. what are you gonna do? get out and look? marvel at the locals? search for aliens? stand around your ship and questioning every life choice you've made up until this point? hang around in orbit because planets are for squares?

this is mostly for early stuff, so please feel free to make your own posts in the next couple of weeks with more planet (or station, or ship!) shenanigans.]

[ There is someone......watching you. How unnerving.

Well, kind of. But he's not really doing anything. Except for the part when he greets Kaneis outside one of the shops, waving. ]

Hey, hey~ You seem to really know your way around here! You must be a really fast learner~

[Oh lovely. A cheerful one. Kaneis stops and frowns a little when this guy he's never spoken to waves to him. He doesn't have orange skin- so he must be part of the fleet. Maybe he just has a question]

Need something?

Mm, not really~ It's just kind of boring here with no one to talk to.

[ Yes, on a planet full of people, no one to talk to. ]

[oh nope nope nope. Not going down this road]

...There's a whole city of people here. Most of them thrilled to talk.

They don't really matter~

[ Might sound like he means conversation-wise, but it's more "in general." ]

Don't you think so?

[...]

Get lost.

[And he's walking off in another direction sjklsdkf]

[ Followiiiiiiing. ]

Eh? What's wrong?

I'm not interested in talking. Better to find someone else.

So what are you doing instead~?

Looking for work.

Eh~? That's not fun at all~

Never said I was doing something fun.

If you're looking for that, go find someone else.

I wasn't really looking for anything, actually!

No? Seems like you're looking for entertainment to me.

It'd be nice to find something to do, but I'd rather spend time around people than do something alone~

And for some reason, you thought I'd be a good person to latch onto?

[ You were conveniently there. ]

I'm more used to anyone who isn't friendly~

Oh goodie.

[You know he's just gonna keep walking at a brisk pace, maybe he'll leave B| ]

It's not like it's a bad thing~

The wolf I was raised by was kiiiind of like that too!

[ Nope. ]

You...were raised by a wolf?

[ Ha, got your attention. ]

Mhm~ My real parents never cared about me, so a wolf that lived outside my town was kind of my parent instead~

[He was trying so hard not to give him a reaction, or give him anything. To just ignore the guy and go away]

[But hell, he wasn't stoic enough that he could just let a story like that not get a reaction]

What?!

[Oh crap, too much emoting. He tries frowning instead]

Are you serious?

Of course! I'd like this place a lot better if they were all animals instead, ahaha~

That's...

[There's a pause. There's a lot of things a person should say to this. Like oh no that's terrible, or about how that's really cruel! In fact Kaneis would be completely in agreement to those things! If this was a true story, then he had a serious beef with this guy's parents. Honestly, considering how his parents treated him- he could relate some. They might have thrown him to the woods too if he hadn't been a Chosen, with all the affection they showed]

[But. Saying that stuff? To a stranger that was kinda weirding him out? ...Nah. Instead, he shoves that aside and goes back to skeptical looking.]

...You're not gonna try to sniff my crotch or anything, are you?

Ahaha! I don't understand people too well, but I'm not that bad~
