1st video/action

Video;

A smallish pale girl appears on the system, moving around somewhat frantically near the various cabins with a look that is 1 part confusion, 1 part anxiety, and 4 parts annoyance and 4 parts whatever that look Mr. Scott had when Captain Kirk told him to rewrite the laws of physics in 15 minutes.

"Um, look. I'm sure whatever is going on is really important here but I was kind of in the middle of something back home. Something involving restoring a destroyed planetary power system before life support on something completely fails and given how I only sort of LOOKED at it for about a minute and most of the best parts are under the sea I really don't have a lot of time for this right now. After I get it up sure, bring me and MY SEIBZEHN here and we'll step on ANYTHING you want but you just brought me and I'm not so useful for squishing things alone."

"I understand you want to make it personal by saying my dad is one of the people here but I do kind of know my family, even if we were separated most of my life. Really, just let me finish my project and just ask, home will probably be unbearably dull once I get the Zohar reactor working again anyways so it'll be a welcome diversion."

Her face turns a bit more irritated at the next part.

"Unless this is some sort of gag Mr. One Eyed Pirate King! I know you're the one who bonked me over the head and drug me out before I could get a better look at that system to get it back online despite the city crashing. Don't think for one minute that if this is some sort of gag and I find you behind it I won't BEAT THE EVER-LOVING SNOT OUT OF YOUR ONE REMAINING GOOD EYE!"

Action;

Later Maria is sitting by the water looking miserable. She's playing with her watch, pushing every damn button on the thing.

"Yeah yeah... No carrier. Seibzehn, I know you have to have power. Please come in. Dad had to have put in his own reactor or something. C'mon, you can't do this to me! You always come. Maybe some sort of jamming I need to figure out how to defeat. Oh who are you kidding Balthasar, the power grid is down and you're some place weird."

She buries her head in her knees and keeps pressing the button getting lower with every non-receptive beep she gets.

He gave her shoulder a friendly pat. "Though yer not alone, even'f ya can't contact anyone with that thing. I can't use mine ta contact anyone either, so.." He pulled his pocket watch out of his coat's inner pocket, and grinned sheepishly. "Though mine's a completely normal old thing."

So basically... "He's yer partner, then?"

"But I don't think ya seem dumb. Ya seem t'know a lotta things I don't know anythin'bout."
lovemguns: (no problem?)

"Is that what it is? But if it's someone you're always with and rely on and stuff, ain't that what a partner is?"

Hmmm...

"That's likely it. But I dun know anythin' about robots, and you have a much more advanced watch than any Iäve ever seen."
lovemguns: ((_ ̄■ ̄_))

"It'll get better...." Uuuhh... "I hope.." Really, he did hope that it would get better.

"They stole my guns, so I can't properly fight here yet." He sighs. "So after almost thirty years'f fighting one way, I have ta learn all over."

Ether guns? What...? "....bullet guns.. I know how they look an' I know all parts an' stuff since I've been usin'em for years. I can't say I've seen any real schematics, though I could probably draw 'em... As for that other type, I've never even heard of'em. But you can build guns? That's fuckin' cool." He knew that the samurai were planning on having the dwarfs make guns, back in the Drif world, but wow...
lovemguns: (( ̄▼ ̄))

[personal profile] lovemguns 2013-06-27 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'd never be able to. I'm good at makin' plans'n stuff, but I can't build things that ain't wood." So yeah, you're pretty cool, missy.
lovemguns: ((≧∇≦))

[personal profile] lovemguns 2013-07-02 12:48 pm (UTC)(link)
He nods. "There's a lotta difference in feel between metal an' wood after all. An' if y'want anyone to come along to explore I love exploring and learnin' new things." Oh! "I wonder'f there're maps of this place."
lovemguns: ((・ε・))

”Maps'd probably be useful t'have. Though, what's plastic?”

[ He actually is familiar with the material, but he's never heard it called ”plastic” before. That was after his time. ]
lovemguns: (ん?)

[personal profile] lovemguns 2013-07-09 11:52 am (UTC)(link)
”Some artifictial stuff, then?”

That's okay, he'll probably figure out just what it is later on.
