[Dean's been around a while now, long enough to get settled in and learn how to work the stove, so he figures it's about the right time to give the Tranquility a formal greeting. Video feed opens up to Dean clearly trying to keep himself in frame, chin ducking once he's sure everything's set up and running.]
For anyone I haven't met yet, which... I'm sure is probably most of you, my name's Dean Winchester.
[It sounds a little rehearsed. He's run it through his head a few times, and it drags on a little as the words spill out.]
I'm, uh... well, apparently I'm not exactly new here, but for all intents and purposes, let's just go with that. If I knew you any more than, say, a month ago, I hate to break it to you, but all that's pretty much gone now. Blank slate. Sorry.
[He doesn't seem all that perturbed by it, but he's been through it too often to really put a lot of heart in the sentiment. He does offer up a tight sort of grimace in apology, but a second later he plows on. His eyes duck down for a second, and then they're back on the camera.]
I've got a couple of questions for anyone who thinks they can answer them. First of all- has anyone ever been anywhere before this? I'm not talking about back home on Earth, or... wherever it is you're from originally. I mean, has anyone ever been bounced to another dimension, or universe, or... something like this ship, but different? Possibly 80% less Star Trek?
[There's a sort of awkward pause there, and it looks like he wants to extrapolate on that. His lips twitch, and then he shakes his head, evidently changing his mind.]
Second off, does anyone know anything about tech crap? See, I got this...
[The camera jiggles a little as his head ducks, he searches through his pockets to find another phone. It isn't a ship-designated communicator, but it looks similar. He holds it up irreverently, flipping it back and forth to display it.]
This other thing, but it's... [He gives it a floppy shake] dead as a doornail, and I can't exactly pick up a charger from the nearest Apple store, so. If anyone has any ideas on how to give it some juice, I'd appreciate it. I'd like to get some crap off of it.
[It's shoved absently back into his jacket pocket.]
Oh, and uh- one last thing. Any word on why some people aren't popping out of the space womb tube things? Is there an ETA on that, or is it step one to getting shipped back home? What's the deal with that?
[It's asked with a sort of consternated, displeased expression. Obviously his phone isn't going to answer him, so after a weird second, he shrugs it off. Scratches awkwardly at his cheek.]
That's pretty much it. Anything you got for me would just be... awesome. Over and out.
[The camera gets a lovely second of vertigo wherein he shifts the view from his face to his boots before he can finally cut the feed.]

Not a bad idea, Sammy.
[Thanks, bro.]
If we get it to work, I'll show you a few snapshots that'll blow your mind.
video;
It's worth a shot.
[You're welcome.]
Oh, yeah? Should I be scared?
video;
Scared of what a giant doofus you become? Absolutely. You're like sasquatch fabio.
[The hair, brother. The hair. You just wait until he gets pictures, you'll see.]
video;
Excuse me?

[He insists, pointing seriously.
Ominously.]

[So deadpan.]

That's my cue. Hanging up now.

Four years from now, your giant gorilla hands break like seven phones trying to hang them up.
