01 | video | in which kitten has a question and heather shares information with the newcomers.

[saint_kitten]

[ The feed clicks on--Tranquility is graced with the very confused blue eyes of one Kitten, Heather Mason in the background looking bemused. ] --and now everyone can see me? [ If her face is anything to go by, she's certainly apprehensive about the whole thing. ]


and hear you. You, uh - you don't need to hold that down, by the way. Just press it again when you're done.


Well pardon me for being from the seventies, darling. Now, I--Oh, can they hear me, too?


[cue giggles.]Can they hear you sassing me? Yes. Give 'em hell.


[ Kitten shoots Heather a look, though if the small smile is anything to go by it's a playful glare. She shakes her head and then returns her attention to the device: ] Now: it has recently come to my attention due to forced kidnapping that a lot of us are on this big old ship in space that's headed for somewhere that's certainly not Earth. As amusing as that is in a science-fiction programme sort of way, I'd like to inquire as to what happens while we're away. I have things to do and places to go, and It would be absolutely dreadful if my official excuse for missing out on life was 'alien abduction.' Dreadful, just dreadful. [ A quick glance over at the other girl: ] I think that's that... Did you want to say anything, dear?


Volunteer to be the act that follows saint Kitten? I don't think so. Oh, except - [she leans forward and offers a wave] Hey, newbies. Welcome aboard. Just so you know: there's booze.


[ To illustrate the point, Kitten holds up a bottle, modeling it for the screen. She lowers it, and then: ] So I turn it off by pressing...What?


[a hand looms in the foreground. Some of you may be questioning whether this is the right person to be giving instructions.] That one right there, same as turning it on. easy, right?


I don't think it-- [ But the feed clicks off. Not bad, for a first attempt, but Kitten's probably going to stick with audio. ]





[OOC:This colour is Kitten and this is Heather! Feel free to reply to either~ ]

[Jack feels for you, Kitten. He didn't understand any of this either. All he knows how to do is Video, and he only accomplished that by pushing random buttons until something happened.]

It gets easier the more you do it, luv.

[handelaar]

[His face is a hot mess, he's going with voice for now. Plus he might be in the kitchens, might not, what is continuity.]

Where the hell is everyone finding booze?

[He wants some.]

[audio]

[alwaysagit]

Here's a thought—why don't the two of you figure out that convenient little privacy feature and just babble amongst yourselves, sparing the rest of us any future imbecilic chattering.

[profligates]

It could be worse, darling. Much, much worse.

And Heather, love, stop advertising the booze. We're going to run out this way.

[forging]

I understand technology isn't everyone's strong suit but if you need help getting something sorted then I'd be more than happy to oblige ---------

[ He'll actually pay attention to the video now. ]
