Who: Keith, Everyone
Broadcast: Open
Action: Huntress, Iskaulit, Planet
When: April Catch-All?
=====
[ video - backdated to shortly after Mikleo disappeared ]
[Keith showed up on the feed, looking mildly annoyed and somewhat disappointed... not the usual face of someone who was about to make the following announcement, which, for most, would likely be more bittersweet.]
Drift Fleet... I wanted to let you all know that Mikleo has left the Fleet. That means, the Huntress has a new captain. Atroma apparently decided that should be me. [Why does this keep happening?] That's all.
[He switched the feed so it was private to Lance.]
Looks like I need a First Mate. You up for it?
[Just like back home, right?]
=====
[ action - huntress/iskaulit - before arrival in system or while in system, your choice ]
[So, Keith could now be found trying to familiarize himself with everything else on the Huntress in an attempt to at least be a decent Captain. Thankfully, this was a lot less pressure than being the leader of Team Voltron. Still, it was a responsibility, and one that had once again somehow dropped in his lap, but he was going to take it seriously all the same.
If this had happened before his time in the abyss, he might have tried to find someone else to do it. However, he was willing to accept his fate.
When not doing that, he could be found doing his usual routine around the Iskaulit... obstacle course, gym, getting food... The Lion's Den felt empty lately, and, since he and Lance were on the same ship and the Blades had ended up picking a different spot for themselves, it seemed silly now. He kept it anyway... just in case anyone came back.]
=====
[ action - planetside catch-all ]
[Keith was definitely taking on odd jobs here and there to fetch things from the surface or go hunting. Exploring was a thing, too. Glowy forest? Cool. Of course, shopping because... why not? And then there was the water park and the VR. Lance did manage to get Keith to the water park. Not that he hated it, but he didn't really like crowds. However, it wasn't all terrible. He still had fun. And there was, of course, the VR stuff. That he liked a lot. Care for a game?]

[Keith gave a small wave in return.]
Figured it would be easy money.
What are you looking for? We could team up... maybe help each other out.
no subject
Well right now, I'm lookin' for these huge red flowers... [ He lets the fire around his fingers vanish before he pulls one out of his bag to show Keith. ] No idea what they're used for, but I'm pretty sure the reason they asked me to get 'em is 'cause there are these huge bugs that really like 'em. I've already had to kill a few. [ He makes a face. ]
What're you after right now?
no subject
It's uh... apparently some kind of vegetable? I don't know. But it tends to grow inside a thicket of some trees that are usually really heavy pollen producers this time of year.
no subject
jesus h christ these two are going to be covered in yellow lmaoEithan snorts when he gets a look at the picture. ]That's a vegetable? Weird... At least it probably stands out, lookin' like that. [ Beat. ] Wonder what it tastes like though...
no subject
Do you have a facemask?
no subject
[ Oh boy. ]
no subject
If you need to head back at any point, lemme know.
[He had his armor and helmet in case he needed it, so he could keep going, but, if it got bad, he didn't mind turning back.]
So... fighting bugs first? Or dealing with pollen?
no subject
Eh, let's deal with the pollen first. I need a break from bug-squashin' for a bit.
no subject
Alright. I was told it's off in this direction.
[He gestured roughly north.]
There's a pretty big patch of them in the area.
[Once Eithan's ready, he'd start walking that way.]
What are the bugs you've been facing like?
no subject
Do they have beetles where you're from? The kind with horns, usually about that big around? [ He makes an "O" shape with one hand. ] Like that, except much bigger. More like the size of my head.
no subject
That's.. uh... yeah. Pretty big.
I guess they're aggressive, too?
[He quirked an eyebrow, looking a little concerned about what they might be about to get into there.]
no subject
[ Optimism? Yay? ]
no subject
[Keith might be somewhat concerned...]
