driftfleet | Video + Action

Who: Lance and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Anywhere aboard the fleet
When: Not long after the ribbon glitches begin

[A - Broadcast]

[The Lance on the screen looks physically a lot better than last time, but his expression still isn't exactly positive. This time, he looks more exasperated than anything.]

Okay, I can weirdly enough sort of accept weird-ass glitches in the matrix that make us end up having superpowers or into a merman or suddenly a kid. But I seriously don't get this at all.

[Above his head pops a little thought bubble. Inside, this:

. He gestures up at it.]

Am I the only one seeing this? Because it looks like there's stuff floating over my quiznaking head!

Even for weird stuff happening around here, this is just extra bananas.

[There's a pause where he absently rubs his stomach. Above his head,

]

Anyone else suffering from sudden picture bubble syndrome?

[B - Elsewhere]

[Free for all! Go ahead and feel free to run into him on the Huntress, Iskaulit, visiting your ship, whatever. Marvel at the poor boy's glitch.]

[ooc: SOOO basically, Lance's glitch is that he has Sims-style thought bubbles over his head. As such, people will be able to see what he's thinking and feeling at pretty much any given time. Have fun with that. All pictures posted will be in said bubbles.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[This was going to be so awkward.]

I know... can you maybe... I don't know... think of like, puppies or something?

[Hopefully, the images wouldn't get too explicit... because he really didn't need Lance projecting mental images of their activities to the whole Fleet. Keith didn't need everyone to know what he looked like naked...]

[Lance takes a deep breath. Clears his mind of any lewd thoughts. And focuses on something else.

]

Is that better?

[Keith managed to give Lance a sympathetic smile, even if it was kind of weak.]

Yeah.

Sorry. I just... That naked guy one... I'm just hoping certain thoughts don't show up, if you know what I mean. It's not a bad thing to think about them. Just I don't think other people really want to know that much detail about us, you know?

[He wasn't angry at Lance. He was just a little worried about how public this particular glitch was making Lance's private thoughts.]

I know. I'll, uh, I'm going to be a lot more careful of controlling my thoughts. So you don't have to worry. It's just when I'm with you that my thoughts get a little, um, wild.

[He gives a sheepish grin.]

Around other people, I can control them.

Is that so?

[Keith suddenly smirked. This could actually be a little fun, then.]

So, you don't think about us getting naked when you're around other people?

I try to keep things PG!

But, I mean... It's not like before this, they could even tell what I was thinking so... Sometimes things just...crop up randomly in my head.

Do I even want to know what that rocket ship is supposed to stand for? You know... like... other than space?

[Keith was definitely thinking there was more innuendo in that than he could figure out.]

[He glances up.] Honestly, I think it's probably just literal. I can't think of what else it'd stand for other than boning in space or whatever.

Okay.

[Keith shrugged a little.]

I mean, stuff like that isn't bad. Just as long as the whole Fleet doesn't see a little naked man with my face on it.

Don't worry, buddy. I'll do my hardest. ...Best. Better word.

Yeah. Best. Definitely better word.

[Keith smirked a little.]

Of course, this makes me want to push things and see what comes up.

W-what's that supposed to mean?

[A little embarrassed face pops over his head.]

[Keith chuckled... a mischievous sound.]

Oh... you know. You can't really hide things like this. And I'd like to know what those symbols mean. So... there's really only one way to figure that out while getting you to learn how to control it.

I, uh. Um.

Fine. Do your worst.

Yeah? Think I can burst that thermometer? Feeling a little hot under the collar?

Babe, you can burst my thermometer any time.

[Okay, that just got Keith to laugh.]

Hah! I knew you liked my pickup lines!

I don't know if it was the line of the fact that had a flaming thermometer above your head. [He chuckled.]

It was the line. Definitely the line.

[He nods.]

Okay. Sure.

[Keith smiled a little.]

I could just... you know... kiss you or something. I'm sure that'd get a reaction.

Well, duh. But things might get pretty lewd pretty fast up there in that bubble if you do.

We're alone. What does it matter right now?

[Keith smirked, that expression he often got right before he did something slightly crazy.

He grabbed Lance's shoulders and leaned in, going right for a kiss on the neck, just near where the jawbone met his ear.]

[God, does Lance love and hate that expression.

He makes a little sound that can essentially translate to "yes, please".]

[Keith smiled.]

Yup... just as I thought.

[He chuckled and kissed Lance again, this time on the lips.]

I think I'm starting to know you too well.
