driftfleet | >8< web 001 - HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Who: Anya Corazon and yoooou
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Windrose
When: 5/10

[ While the Windrose folks will recognize her, Anya's been spending time going back through the archives to get an idea of what's been going on and what these people are like instead of actually talking to them just yet, so she is decidedly not a familiar face.

When she speaks, she has a definite Hispanic accent - a mix of Mexican and Puerto Rican, for anyone who would be able to tell. ]

Hey, my name's Anya, I'm on the Windrose. I, uh, haven't really said much on the network since I got here. Kind of got distracted catching up on what's been going on. Oops?

[ She smiles and shrugs sheepishly ]

Anyway, it's Mother's Day, right? Or close enough? So I feel like everybody should take a minute to think about your mamá back home. Unless you didn't have a great mom, then I guess think about someone else who was like a mom, yeah? Also do something for nice for any moms you know here, 'cause they're probably missing their kids a lot, being stuck here.

I want to say thank you and I love you to my mom Carol, because she has done so much for me and always believes in me and taught me how to protect myself from assholes with superpowers. [ grin ] Best mom, even if she's a total nerd.

[ And then, on the encrypted Comms officer channel or whatever it is ]

Hey, fellow Communications people, que pasa? We totally have our own secret chat room, basically, how cool is that? Who all is one of us, anyway?

Threaded | Flat

[He sure does recognise the accent, and he feels a tinge of homesickness. Still, he smiles a little, his own accent very much Mexican.]

It's easy to get distracted, there's a lot to process in this place.

That's a really nice thing to say about your mamá, though. I bet if she heard it, she'd appreciate it.

Mother's Day, huh. That an Earth holiday?

[ There's a bit of concern in his voice. He's hoping a certain changeling hasn't seen this. ]

I like to think of it as our own secret burn book.

Names Crowley, I'm on the Pathstone.

Que pasa...is that a turn of phrase from your home planet?

[ GOD, ANYA, YOU HAD TO DO THIS TO HER ON A PUBLIC CHANNEL. HOW DOES SHE ENCRYPT THIS? SHE'S NOT CRYING. She just has space allergies, and that's why she's casually wiping her eyes with the back of her wrist as the video comes on. ]

Love you too. Thanks for letting me be your mom. I know sometimes I probably don't deserve it, but I'm so glad I am.

I don't have a mother.

[Have a slightly guilty look. Guess who didn't call his mom often enough! Oops.]

Uh, Happy Mother's Day, Anya.

Oh hey, I totally didn't know we could do this.

[Alex has basically done no communicating as a communications officer, oops.]

Uhh... nada? Me llamo Alex?

[She hasn't spoken a word of Spanish in years, but there are a few phrases she at least absorbed growing up.]

[he'd just been listening along until the sudden switchover to encrypted, when he eagerly flips on his own video feed. so, she's now got a guy with pointy ears and some piercings grinning at her.]

Oh, hi! I'm Comms too... it is kind of cool, huh?

Sup from the Wonderfuck. I mean Wonderduck. Same difference. Is this where we gossip about space radio.
