❅ [Video] un: captaincold
[Leonard's a bit leery when he activates the video comm on his device and gives it a very intent look, as if he could see through it to the entirety of the network. Spoilers: He can't. He just likes making people uncomfortable, if the lengthy silence is anything to go by.
As a matter of fact, it stretches on so long that it might seem like the video was an accident and he wasn't aware he was broadcasting. Don't be silly, he's not that careless.]
Here's the thing, [He begins calmly with a bit of a lilt to his voice as he speaks.] I'm no stranger to space travel. What I don't understand is how my ship [He sure did call the Waverider "his". He hopes Rip is rolling over back in their reality.] fell through this rift with me, but the rest of the crew did not.
Anyway, I'm Leonard Snart, also called Captain Cold by some. I'm a Sagittarius and like long walks on the beach at sunset, rom-coms, and holding hands. [No, he doesn't. All of that was a lie except his name and alias. If his deadpan delivery says anything at all, it's that he's a sarcastic little shit.]
I don't need friends, but in my experience, allies come in handy. I'm more likely to lend a hand to an ally than a stranger.

I wish I had one, but I'd probably just end up Captain Wet and that's not cool at all.
(leonard didn't ask for this...)
Is it because you seem like a frigid bitch, or that maybe you have an ice ability?!
no subject
Both. [OH SO DEADPAN. OH SO UNAMUSED.]
Do I even want to ask why you'd call yourself wet? If you shake on my furniture, I'm shoving you out an airlock. The upholstery's one-of-a-kind. [Was that a joke? Sure sounded like it.]
If the kid that gave me the name shows up, I'll be sure to point him in your direction for alias consultations.
no subject
(points.)
You said that you didn't want friends and friends use each other's furniture. Besides, I don't even know what an airlock is, but if it keeps all of the air locked in, then I want nothing to do with that.
no subject
[Snart sighs, but doesn't actually seem annoyed. Not completely.]
And if you're traveling in space and don't know what an airlock is, you're bound to end up in trouble. It keeps air in and the deadly vacuum of space out. Pro tip: don't open them in space.
no subject
Well, now there's no way you'll get me near one of those!
no subject
[Souuuunds like an insult, but it's not really. That's just his tone. His... eternally dry tone.]
You got a name or should I just start calling you Puddles?
[Hey, you're the one that called yourself Captain Wet. He's just assuming, here...]
no subject
(he's friends with way too many assholes, you learn to take all tones in stride.........)
"Puddles" works, but my name's Houzuki Suigetsu! I'd prefer it over nicknames, but people never listen to me anyway, so I can't really order you around. Whatever floats your particular boat, Cap'n.
no subject
Some people just need to be looked after.
Yeah, don't order me around. But, I'll see if I can't keep that in mind, Houzuki.
no subject
That's totally another dig at me, I'm gonna keep count and you're three for three. (he sounds totally fine with this, though, maybe he's a bit of a masochist.) What's your boat like?
(assumes it's a boat, because he's a captain and suigetsu's in space-denial...)
no subject
Worse yet, the smirk evolves into full-blown amusement when the kid calls him out.]
Guilty as charged. Is there a preset limit I should avoid? [His boat. His boat. He can hear Rip screaming in that snooty accent of his already. He'll roll with it.]
The Waverider. She travels space and time, or she did. Now she just travels space and I can't seem to fix her. If you're ever curious to look around, I might be able to find the time to oblige. Don't worry, the onboard AI won't let you open any airlocks. [Another smirk. Kid, you've made a friend, even if he'll deny it.]
no subject
(they are certainly sharp and he's got a snaggletooth, but that's neither here nor there. he's super interested in this space-boat, now, eyes wide. his wrist communicator is translating everything mr. snart is saying, but there are a few things that aren't quite making sense.
but a tour sounds super nice...)
I don't know what an "onboard AI" is, or how to really grasp spacetime jutsu, (travelling space and time is best reserved for ancient uchiha and their ancestors and those ancestors' progenies.) but I'll have to thank it for keeping me inside and not suffocating, hahaha. I wanna take a look though, is she big?
no subject
Onboard Artificial Intelligence. She's called Gideon, and she's a really smart computer that almost seems human. [Hell, the way she's been backtalking him lately, he's pretty sure it's more than 'seems' human. Snarky program.] Yeah, the Waverider's pretty big. But I don't make it a habit of visiting other space-time ships, so my opinion's kind of relative on that matter.
Don't thank her, she'll start expecting it. [DEADPAN AS HELL because it's hard NOT to treat Gideon like a human with common human courtesies, like thanking her.] Whenever you're ready to take a look, let me know and I'll make sure she doesn't vaporise you on the spot. [Is he joking? Maybe. Possibly. Does he sound like he's joking? Nope. Spoilers: He's joking.]
no subject
(he's going to thank the computer lady. definitely. and be her first friend ever.)
When I get back from Bajikan, I wanna see the Waverider for sure! In the meantime, I guess I'm just checking out this heptagon of districts. It's pretty neat, have you been down yet?
no subject
Can't say that I have just yet. Still adjusting to the whole space kidnapped thing. Throwing myself into yet another strange environment just didn't sound like my cup of tea. What's it like?
no subject
(looking around, not in any one district but standing at the epicentre of all of them.)
It's really spacious and all of the buildings are super tall. There are seven special gates, I think, with each corresponding to the tokens you probably got already. I've only been to where the blue and black gates go and, so far? They're really something... (holding up his blue and black tokens, rubbing them together between his fingers.)
In blue, you can nap without consequence and drink the tea they give you and relax on these big, fluffy futons, but in black you can fight anyone without repercussions. There are a ton of weapons to take and people super hungry to bet on matches, so I've been making a fair bit of money, hahaha. I can't lose!
no subject
Sounds fun.
So, these matches, how does that work?
[Don't mind his interest in that. It just reminds him of two very good friends who both enjoy fighting.]
no subject
(well, suigetsu was stupid before, but in a discussion about fighting? well, that's one thing he's experienced in.)
The crowds bet on one of the fighters, I've seen their managers hocking bets and stuff. It's really funny, you should check it out. (a throaty laugh,) Some of 'em get dirty, but you just gotta get dirty right back.
no subject
[To be fair, he didn't think Suigetsu was stupid, just a ditz.]
I think I just might. I enjoy a good brawl. It's usually more fun with alcohol and a few dozen idiots. [Or, an arsonist and a ninja assassin at your side as you all wail on said drunk idiots, but whatever.] Stress relief.
no subject
(motioning to lenny openly on the camera, perking up.)
I'm sure it'd be waaay more fun with someone I know there! (leaning forward, let's go let's go let's go... sasuke might forgive him if he's "protecting" someone...) Whaddaya say, do you wanna go?!
no subject
[Well, THAT was sure an invitation, but...] You don't actually know me. [
Tsuntsun.] But, I think I can make time for that.[He's not making friends! That's not what this is and how dare you think that. Gosh. He's just... Shut up.]
no subject
People are really intimidating in Ira because they're all so pissed off all the time, you might get that way too for all I know. But it's better you don't go all by yourself, 'cause that's just asking for trouble. (there's a large amount of truth to this, but also it's that he doesn't want to go alone...
the planet's creepy, okay... don't judge him.)
As for the abnormality, didn't I already tell you? You called me a puddle yourself and that's pretty accurate, y'know.
(but he does outstretch his arms, happy to share his abilities. even though the only thing that comes out of his mouth is:)
I'm water!
