[He's been lurking on the networks since his arrival, reading everything he can get his hands on, but no sign of that shows in his expression. (Better to show trust and goodwill towards his fellow passengers by showing his voice and face. He's wearing the uniform, in order to foster a sense of common ground among those who haven't got other clothes.) Leoben smiles, calm and candid.]
Hi. I'm new here, and it seems to be the custom to introduce yourself. I'm Leoben.
I was wondering - does anyone have any religious texts they'd be willing to share? Or any works on prophecy, divination, or philosophy? Seems like my universe has some things in common with most of yours, but a lot that's different. I'd be glad to know more about other people's faiths, and to introduce them to mine.
I've got a complete copy of the Sacred Scrolls of the Twelve Colonies, and I can provide a digitized copy to anyone who's interested. [He says this as though it's normal, as though it's not blasphemous to set the Sacred Scrolls in print instead of keeping them handwritten, besides being abhorrent for scripture to be in the hands of a Cylon.] Our faiths are similar, but the Colonials look to many gods, while we look to one. It's a little complicated.
I'm very happy to have this opportunity to learn more about such a diverse group of people - human and non-humans of all kinds, their cultures and beliefs - and to spread God's word, in accordance with His holy will, among you all. [He seems to actually mean this, and to be downright thrilled to find himself captive on a creepy half-abandoned spaceship adrift in the stars.]
And Kara? I'd love to see you, whenever you've got the time.

If you can never be separated from him then you must feel, at all times, that you are part of something greater than yourself.
It must be nice, in a place such as this, to not know loneliness.

But there were many copies of my model, and all of us shared memories, and a common purpose in the service of God. [Until they didn't, until this Two - Kara Thrace's Leoben, the Leoben who walked with her on Old Earth - found something he could not share with his other selves, and could not explain why.] So I have always been part of something greater than myself. Or ourself.
