[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.]

[He still feels like he should be insulted... Didn't Zelos say he doesn't know everything about this place, either? But he only hums, looking down at the book one last time before sighing.]

You make it sound like I'm somehow lacking in the capacity to understand... I'm not. It's one book. [Defensive?? Yes.]

[luxuriant]

Aww, come on, don't look like that. You're gonna make me feel bad.

[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.

[allweather]

Well— [That's not wrong, he supposes, but he also knows marginally less about anything than everyone else here, he assumes... Urgh.] Well then, it stands to reason that mistaking this—two-cent piece of trash for something useful is perfectly normal! Something to be expected, even...!

[please,]

[luxuriant]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it, I insulted your pride. Come on.

[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.

[allweather]

I'm already employed by the bookstore... [But this does explain why they still have him stocking shelves more than actually dealing with customers. Ouch, his nerd cred.

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.

[luxuriant]

Oh, really? I guess you do look like that kind of guy.

[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.
