[ Apologies in advance to anyone listening to this but it starts off less than spectacular with just a lot of frustrated cries and cursing as he tries to figure out if it's 1) working and 2) even doing what he wants to it be doing. Eventually he just goes with it on the assumption that it is. ]

Right, I think I finally got the hang of this thing. Sure as hell hope so or otherwise I'm sounding like a complete idiot right now. [ Well, there's still a good chance of him sounding like an idiot regardless, but he doesn't want to be thinking about that right now. ]

From what I got from this thing, it's how we all communicate, ask questions, and all of that stuff... So someone mind telling me what the hell is the deal is around here? If it isn't obvious, but I don't get this stuff. I can't even begin to wrap my mind where we even are. [ Space? What is that?? ]

[She'll start with the basics.]

What year are you from?

[Voice]

[braveness]

Year? Uh, 850.

[ though, he's getting the feeling that it's probably not going to work as well as the voice thinks it might. ]

Re: [Voice]

[the_other_eight]

[..... right. Not four digest. Give her a minute to think of something else to try.]

What sort of technology are you used to?

[braveness]

Not this. [ obviously ]

But I guess canons, guns, and 3DMG. Simple stuff compared to what you can find around this place.

[the_other_eight]

Ah.

[Another pause.]

Well, The ship concept probably isn't much different then what you're used to. Only instead of water it floats in space.

[That doesn't even sound right to her but she's trying.]

[braveness]

A ship that floats in space...

[ Cool. Ship. Space.... He gets the idea of a ship. They're like big boats but the last bit doesn't click and he groans because he just knows what he's about to say is going to make him sound incredibly dumb. ]

I'm pretty sure we're not thinking of the same kind of "space" here.

[the_other_eight]

[She needs to think of the easiest way to explain this.]

The place where all the stars are.

[braveness]

That's— [ See, in any other circumstance, he'd totally be laughing here and saying what bullshit that is but given how everything is... He's going to concede. ]

But how—? Never mind, I don't care. [ Yeah, give him a moment to digest this. ]

[the_other_eight]

[She'll wait a few minutes before she continues.]

This is a different year then the one you're from. Years from your time people will learn how to reach the stars; years from the time I'm from they'll learn to travel them.

[She has no doubt of her last statement. It's why finding out she was in space wasn't that surprising compared to everything else. They've landed a rover on Mars, they were sending others too and planning to attempt colonization; it's not that strange to think that they'll go further and make ships that are outfitted for deep space travel.]

[braveness]

[ He still is having a hard time taking it all in because it's a lot to take in for someone who lives behind walls but he's managing somehow. ]

Yeah, somehow. [ Because he's got to ask. ]

The titans... How did humanity ever figure out how to finally get rid of those bastards?

voice.

[throwsdown]

We're traveling around the stars!!

[That's pretty much legit okay, Takeshi knows his shit.]

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

"Where we are" in terms of the ship or in terms of our position in space?

voice;

[afraidofthe]

[If it's any consolation, he's doing a lot better with the device than Bigby did when he first arrived.]

You're coming through loud and clear. Welcome to space.

have some Video, Jean

[dashhole]

[Bloop~! Let Scout introduce you to the device's video function! Because everyone needs to see his handsome mug, obviously.]

Fer all intensive purposes? You're in Hell.

[...Intents, Scout, it's "intents and purposes." Not "intensive."]

voice.

[braveness]

[ Totally legit. ]

Yeah, I think I got that much. [ But does he dare ask how? The voice sounds too young to possibly know so, guess not. ] Uh, thanks.

[voice]

[braveness]

[ Right, "space". That thing. ]

Both? I'll take whatever answer you got for me.

voice;

[braveness]

[ Aw yeah. The power of youth or something. ]

Oh, good. That's good to know but—this space thing. Are we really up with the stars? [ Not that he doesn't trust the nice lady above, but...he just needs a second or maybe even a third opinion on this. ]

wow thanks scoot, still replies with voice

[braveness]

[ oh yeah totally, Jean appreciates it a great deal. don't let the dripping sarcasm in his voice fool you. ]

You mean intents and purposes? But if this place is hell; it sure is shiny and glows a lot.

voice;

[afraidofthe]

[Either that or the power of simply not being Bigby.

His responses are blunt; he doesn't often mince words.] We sure are. Stuck on a spaceship and everything; just like being dumped straight into a sci-fi novel.

[the_other_eight]

Titans?

[She has no idea what he's talking about.]

anytime baby, anytime (all video all the time)

[dashhole]

Pft, yeah, whatever.

But seriously though, this place is wicked fucked up. You should listen to me.

[braveness]

Yeah, titans.

[ and he can't comprehend how she wouldn't know what they are. ]

Tall, ugly things that eat people just for the hell of it.

voice;

[braveness]

[ He can appreciate that. ]

Yeah, a sci-fi novel. [ Jean has no idea what that is but he sure does know what novels are. Chalking it up to being some sort of genre. ] So, is there any clue as to what we're supposed to be doing here?

what would i do without you ( voice everyday until he doesn't )

[braveness]

And why's that?

oh my god i can't with the horse puns

[dashhole]

Cause I know what I'm talkin' about. There's somethin' freaky about this ship, and I ain't talking about the clientele.
