[video] un: k2so
[A video! Of a DROID. A dark faced droid with white photoreceptors looking at his video feed. If droids could have facial expressions, his would be confused, or annoyed, or a bit of both really.]
Handy man. I was assigned to be a handy man at a place called Nuts and Bolts. What an absurd name for a business. If they understood my capabilities they would understand they are well above “Handy Man”. I am not some simple labor droid.
[He pauses his rant, head lifting and looking back and forth, before continuing to speak again.]
This situation is abnormal. The odds that they are lying however appear to be low. The situation I recorded last was ... not good, so this could be considered a vast improvement. I am, however, unfamiliar with some of the technology here. They could have at least equipped me with some upgrades instead of this communication device.
[What a string of complaints! Oh right, this device. He looked down to it again, stared, then lifted his other hand near it.]
I am K-2SO. I am looking for those who may understand the call sign of “Rogue One” ... which is also an absurd name.
That is all. [and he would cut the feed unless someone replies to this. The odds of someone replying are high. The odds of it being someone he actually knows are about middle ground. That, to him, is being optimistic and hopeful]

He can only imagine everyone else is feeling the same that he is, but he refuses to allow it to show. Nope, he wants to appear cool and confident— somebody who has got it all together.
(He doesn't, and he's never had anything together at all.)
K-2SO might even notice the light sweat on his brow. ]
Absolutely. There is no reason to feel inadequate! And ah, shame on others for seeing you that way. It isn't what is on the outside that counts, but the inside. They're wrong, so don't listen to them.
[ Seems like he's doing just that, bit affirmation is good. Plus he sounds cool saying all of this. ]
no subject
[Interesting. Someone speaks loud and proud. He's not used to that. Most of the people he found himself around were negative or came off as gloomy. Including himself.]
[He does notice the light sweat, but he makes no note of it. This is simply video and he can't pick up on all the signs anyhow.]
I rarely feel inadequate, just not so well utilized. It is... good to know a stranger who knows nothing about me feels the same as me. [He... really could have said that better.] In this case though, what is on the inside and the outside are much of the same and should both count towards better jobs.
no subject
I feel the same as you. There are plenty parts of me that are not utilized and my goals are big and of good-intention, but instead, I am coldly ignored— pushed away and forgotten..!
I have been given the job title of a beat poet, and I am sure I will enjoy it, but oh, I am so much more. I have faith we can both prove to this place that we carry many more talents that should be recognized.
[ your mistake was no turning off the communicator when you had the chance. ]
no subject
[Wait. He can no pass up asking this...]
Is there a high demand for someone to beat poets? Are poets not meant for entertainment? If they are bad at what they do, is that when your job comes in?
[Is he serious? Is he pulling your leg? He's... okay no, he's actually confused. What kind of job is that?]
1.2
2.2
My very soul is in a storage unit, closed off from this dismal world.
[ answering the rest of the questions? forget about it. He couldn't mess up a cool one-liner like that by answering questions. ]
no subject
[He's 'staring']
[...]
Deep.
[Oh, so did he get it? Maybe he did, or...] I was unaware that souls could be detached and kept in storage, but if that is how it works back in your home, who am I to mock it.
[....Kay. Please. Stop.]
no subject
This.. is awkward for both of us. ]
It's not as if anybody can understand the complexity of my soul in any case. But those who truly seek it, will find it.
[ no.. nobody can understand you because you speak nonsense. ]
You intend on staying here or are there... other things you have to get back home to?
[ ok.. a normal.. conversation... weren't they trapped here? The captain said there was no way to go back, but Karamatsu didn't think that was true. ]
no subject
[:| ... yeah, he has no idea what this kid is blathering on about. If he got headaches, he really would have one right now. Thankfully he can't GET them.]
I do not believe there is anything to return to back home. At least not for me. However, if there is a way to get back home, in one piece, I would do so, if it was what my Captain wanted to do as well.
no subject
the droid has a "captain" though.. huh.. that's something. ]
Heh.
Loyalty like that is rewarded in the end. It seems as if you've already been blessed by having people you know also be here, hm?
no subject
I am unsure if it is worth being rewarded. I am told there are a few people here from my crew. That is good. Do you have people here that you know?
no subject
There is no family.. no friendships.. it is just moi.
[ moi though.. ]
I am making friends, such as you, very quickly though. Soon it will not be a problem..!
