#004 [Accidental Video]

[everydayhero]

Who: Hiro Hamada
Broadcast: Fleetwide Video
Action: Bishop
When: 5/17



[it appears that the atroma is tired of one of its star ratings-grabbers not doing a damn thing. for the entire duration of april, hiro was fixing ships and running jobs for parts. for the month of may, he's been using those parts. he's currently working with black paint of some sort, with music playing from seemingly nowhere (looks like the sound system he kept talking about got completed).

[if you haven't sought him out, and you're not regularly training him, hiro's been completely radio silent while he's been working. in fact, he hasn't even answered text messages in a couple days.

[when he finishes coating the surface he's working on in the paint, he lowers the mask he's wearing and sighs, wiping (and smearing paint on) his forehead. he looks like a mess.

[but hey, at least he's alive!]

. . .

[Buffering... buffering...]

Yeah, no. Still boring.

[everydayhero]

It's not boring, it's science. I made the sound system and the upgraded alarm system on this ship, too. It has a rave mode.

[delincuente]

Those are basically the same thing to me. I skipped high school science more than I actually went.

[She's listening, though. Sound systems are cool.]

What ship are you even on?

[everydayhero]

Shame. I barely remember high school science, it was so easy.

SS Bishop. I'm the first mate, Hiro Hamada. You might have seen me fixing everybody's ships last month.

[delincuente]

Dude, there's no way you're older than, like, twelve.

[She squints at him.]

Alex Russo, Paisley communications officer. And I spent most of that month sleeping.

[everydayhero]

Fourteen, thank you. Been a year since I graduated.

I'll admit, action-wise it wasn't an interesting month.

[delincuente]

Compared to the last place that kidnapped me, nothing here's been interesting. I kinda dig it that way.

[everydayhero]

Oh, were you somewhere else before this? Y'know, that wasn't home.

[delincuente]

Yeah, this stupid soul-eating castle called Paradisa. I was there for three years.

[everydayhero]

... Is everyone here from Paradisa?

[delincuente]

Nah, just me, Crowley, Felix... Ino...

[She's counting on her fingers.]

I don't know, probably more.

[everydayhero]

Alright, so just half the fleet.

[delincuente]

Yeah basically.

[A considering little hum]

Not that I was really, like, friends with them there or anything. Just Felix.

[everydayhero]

I haven't met Felix myself. Don't really care to meet Crowley. Allen's a friend, though, and... I wouldn't be here without Ino.

[delincuente]

Yeah? She seems like the heroic, lifesaving type. Classic Ino.

[She still isn't sure how she feels about the girl, but she tries not to let that show.]

I forgot about Allen. Only time I've ever talked to him, he was working in our old host club.

[everydayhero]

A... host club..?

[delincuente]

Yeah. A bunch of guys dress up in stupid outfits and flirt with all the girls. When I met him he was in, like, full-on leather.

[everydayhero]

... This is probably something he wouldn't want me to know.

[delincuente]

And that's what makes it pure gold.

[everydayhero]

Exactly. So tell me more.

[you have his interest]

[delincuente]

Oh my god, I wish I'd had a camera or something. Those guys had to wear the stupidest costumes, like... leotards, and space suits, and this one time I swear there were panda hats. I don't know why guys like Allen went along with it. Like, he was way normal in comparison to most of them.

[everydayhero]

... Leotards? Seriously?

[he is definitely about to lose his shit laughing]

Obviously he's not as normal as we thought.

[delincuente]

Yeah, they had this whole circus thing, with, like, trapezes and stuff.

[She makes some really inefficient hand gestures to go with it.]

And compared to some of the other people me and him knew? He's basically the most boring person ever.

[everydayhero]

... I have to make fun of him for this. The laws of nature demand it.

[delincuente]

Be my guest. He'll probably think Ino told you.
