[The white, grinning mask filled the entire screen. It might be pretty recognizable to some. The voice was female, slightly metallic-sounding with a very subtle echo that was likely due to the mask. She still manages to sound quite playful in a dark way.]

Interesting location. Looks like I'm a long way from home... I could use some company.

Let's cut to the chase.

Anyone willing to strike up a bargain benefiting both parties during our stay here had best get back to me soon~. I have quite a few things to offer the right person, should I deem you worthy of my time. It would be foolish to think there aren't advantages to working together.

[At least until she could land on her feet.]

As rough with your words as ever. Do try to be a little less disrespectful when you're trying to make allies, Jade. People will think you were raised in a zoo.

[chessassin]

You are definitely not worth of my time! When did you get here?

[If it sounds like there's a manic tinge to her voice, it's purely your imagination.]

Re: Video

[master_of_the_game]

I didn't exactly ask to end up stranded in space, pumpkin. This is as strange to me, as it is to you. Like it or not, we're stuck out here. We're not the only ones, either.

Some other "friends" of yours are here, too.

[chessassin]

[Pumpkin? Can you FEEL the rage through the device?]

Call me that again and I won't hesitate to cut out your tongue.

They're not my friends. They're hers.

Voice

[angroy]

[First, Sportsmaster, now, her. What is going on?]

Already thinking of stirring up trouble here?

Voice

[chessassin]

[Oh, Roy. You just made her day.]

Not likely. Mostly trying to stay out of it.

But hearing your voice put me in such a good mood that I might just be willing to give you something to look out for.

Voice

[angroy]

[He didn't mean to!!]

So I was right for finding you staying out of trouble to believe.

[That means he'll have to keep his eye on her with his bow and single arrow. Oh, wait--]

Voice

[chessassin]

[Too late.]

Believe what you want, gorgeous, but I don't like being labelled.

I'm very... flexible. [Keep an eye on THAT!]

voice

[purepazaak]

So that's not vague or ominous at all.

voice

[chessassin]

Would you rather I be direct and terrifying? We'd miss all that fun 'getting to know each other' chatting that people love so much!

voice

[purepazaak]

What can I say, I'm a busy guy. I've got a whole ship's worth of blank walls to stare at.

voice

[chessassin]

I'm mildly insulted, stranger.

Let me know when you've got a whole ship's worth of problems, and then you'll see how ominous I really am.

VOICE

[teashop]

How are you planning to determine if someone's worth your time?

VOICE

[chessassin]

I'm an excellent judge of character. A good conversation is usually all it takes.

VOICE

[teashop]

[ mm-hm. he'll play. ]

I'm sure.

And what're these things that you're offering? Not to burst your bubble, but nobody's going to strike a bargain with you until they know they have something worth gaining.

VOICE --> video

[chessassin]

And I'm not just going to dump all my eggs in one basket like an amateur. If they're worth my time, they'll figure it out.

If not... they'll just have to wait to see me in action. For you? I think I can manage a hint.

[When the camera turns back on, it's facing a cabinet with a gingerbreadmantypthing drawn onto it. A shuriken whips by fast enough to be mistaken for a blur and embeds itself in the cabinet in the center of the little drawing. So much for it's tiny head.]

[seethemoon]

Stay away from us.

[chessassin]

Is that any way to greet an old friend? I don't remember mentioning you or your small-time group of heroes at all.

Did you really want to talk to me that badly, junior?

[seethemoon]

No.

But I'm warning you. Because I'm a nice guy. So, again: Stay away from us.

not impressed video of 2012

[unfiltrating]

Wow. It's a family reunion.

cocky, unbothered video of hahaha you're small

[chessassin]

Family? I don't think I'm familiar with that word.

Oh, but I'm so glad you're here, baby bird. We're going to have so much fun!

pretending this video has been 100% locked since the beginning of this thread for great justice

[unfiltrating]

I could ask what the cat dragged in, but I guess that'd be a little redundant.

Looks like they're really slumming on who they're bringing onto the ship these days, huh?

[redwinged]

Well that's one way to get attention.

[chessassin]

I know a few more ways, if you're ... interested.

Nice cowl. Did you make it yourself?

[redwinged]

Ebay.


Consider me interested.
