video | un: handsome zelos
[What is the first thing that Zelos does when he realizes that these little wrist devices can communicate to everyone on the ship? That's simple.]
Yo, hunnies! [His voice sounds loud and clear across the communicators, his face also making a grinning appearance. Well, as much as this announcement might seem carefree, he's actually just fishing to see who's all on this ship. He heard there were a few groups of people in front of him at least, so who's he looking at here? He can't properly stay safe if he doesn't know the whole set up.]
Check me out! Are you seeing this, or what? Man, I look so cool, even on these little wrist bands! [His laughter sounds out, obnoxiously cheerful about this.] You guys can all hear me, right? Testing, testing, one, two, three...!
[He's probably made himself hated to more than half of the ship by now, but that's fine.] The name's Zelos Wilder, but you can just call me Zelos. ♥ We're all the unfortunate souls stuck in this screw up, right? So let's get along!
[That's his short and simple message, and with a wink, he turns the video off.]

A book. [Now he's going to ignore this pest...!! Just kidding, this great plan lasts about five seconds before he sighs and closes the book with his finger holding the page, so the wacky space book cover can be seen.] It's about starships, but I'm finding it somewhat abstract...
no subject
Oh man, that sounds cool! Is there any spicy romance? Hot battles and daring rescues?
no subject
Strangely, yes... Perhaps it's more autobiographical than I thought? But after so many informative maps and diagrams, I was taken aback by the rest of the information.
[Reim reads a space novel and doesn't realize it because it's all in space jargon: the epic.]
no subject
[He trails off a little as he repeats that, his expression dropping just a bit as he eyes Reim. It clicks, after a second, and the next few seconds of silence are Zelos attempting to show some self control. That breaks, of course, as he snorts and leans back, covering his hand with one mouth and slapping the arm of the couch with the other.]
You can't be serious...! Oh man, that's so great, I think I'm gonna cry! [Help him, he's cruel and more familiar with space travel as an idea so he can understand space novels... Slap him, Reim.] Hold on, hold on, let me see the maps.
no subject
To be fair, all maps are hand drawn as far as he's concerned, why wouldn't these be real?] Here! What's so funny about them?
no subject
[He's starting to feel a little bad... But only a little, so it's not showing at all. He still has a couple snickers left in him as he leans over and takes a look at the map. Well, it's a well done scifi novel map... But Zelos points out two planets that look rather close together.]
Check this out. Do you see any mention of the scaling on this map? What kind of map doesn't show you how long it takes to get from one place to another? [He was also going to yell about the black hole in the corner, because who believes there's giant space holes, but thankfully he didn't go that route.]
no subject
Well, space is fairly large... [crud, he can feel his leg to stand on crumbling into oblivion already. He's failed. This isn't a textbook at all.]
no subject
Space is fairly large...!! Hahaha! [Goodbye,]
no subject
Isn't it?! What did I say?
no subject
No, no, it was just the way you said it. Space is bigger than you can imagine. Let's just leave it at that.
no subject
You make it sound like I'm somehow lacking in the capacity to understand... I'm not. It's one book. [Defensive?? Yes.]
no subject
[He offers a sheepish smile, shrugging his arms as he looks over at Reim.] I'm just saying that space is so big that no one knows everything about it! This place is way more advanced than anywhere I came from, but I'd be surprised if they had all the answers.
no subject
[please,]
no subject
[Moving one of his hands behind Reim's back, he gives him a harsh pat and then pushes a bit, aiming to stand up with him.] Since I'm oh-so benevolent and kind, I've decided to help you find some books that are actually useful! Let's go.
no subject
Fine, he'll get up. This book stays in the lounge, though, so he'll shuffle over to put it back on the shelf first.] Alright.
no subject
[The bookstore type... Well. Clearly he needs to be educated on Space, so they're going anyway.] There have to be some books lying around that have real info. I don't know about maps, though.
