01 ( video ) ✂ ICE TO MEET YOU

[WOW THIS POST IS SO EXCITING no, psych. it's an average man, holding his communicator in such a way as to just film his average face and average neck and the average background behind him. yawn. he appears to be wearing some kind of red t-shirt, and his expression falls somewhere between neutral and friendly.]

You know, most every kid dreams about going to space at some point, but I gotta say this isn't exactly what I pictured after seeing Star Wars for the first time. No stars, for one thing--you'd figure that would be one of the perks. A whole lot of walls, though. I'd ask about the resident status of little green men, but that might actually be offensive. [SHRUG. his smile is easy, if a little self-deprecating.] I've always been a Xena guy, myself. Funny how things work out.

Okay, okay--I did have a question when I started this, I swear. As a special bonus, it won't even start an ethics debate. This is an open network, right? Like one big interstellar Craigslist, internet arguments and all. I've already done some of the recommended reading--very informative, by the way--but in my experience there's not much an FAQ can do to replace real... experience. So. What's one thing you wish someone had told you when you first showed up here? Anything at all, doesn't matter what. [one corner of his mouth twists up for a moment, as if to say well, what can you do?] Not sure how much I can offer in return right off the bat, but hey, give me a few weeks. I'll owe you one.

[he pauses, looking at the camera with a wry edge to his otherwise still friendly grin.]

Also. Has anyone been able to figure how we end up with the stuff in our lockers? I mean, the--selection process. Because I for one would love to know the reasoning behind this. [he lowers the camera slightly to reveal that he is, in fact, wearing this.] Not disputing the logo, by the way. Just curious.

You're not the only one.

[ he pans the camera down to reveal this, though he doesn't seem too annoyed buy it. ]

You own it? That shirt.

It's old. [ And now he's uncomfortable. ]

You know who the shirt belongs to? Or did?

I got a few things that didn't belong to me. That might be it--the shirt, I mean.

Uh-huh. [ But he inclines his chin, a slight movement but friendly enough. ] Least they treat us nice save for the whole putting us behind the eight ball bit.

This place, it's got traps and the like, dig? Things that happen to everyone. Not too pleasant.

Yeah, it's peachy keen. [ Can you tell his sarcasm? It's dripping. ]

Name's Brendan. You need info, I'm your go-to for the most part.

Yeah, well--I mean it, bo. [ And he cuts the feed, but not before sending a text with his IC contact info. Just in case, Rudy. Just in case. ]
