(( ooc: set after the robot shenanigans and the avocado uprising. responses might come from either or both of them; let us know if you have a preference! ))

[ in all honesty, they haven't gotten far. aqua is sure they really haven't. but somehow in their decision to explore a little of the world outside the bounds of the city they have gotten themselves turned around. and without their gliders fully functioning, well... finding their way has proven more difficult than usual.

uncharacteristically, they have both been out of touch with friends and acquaintances and aqua doesn't even think to use the network, mostly because the most important person in any world is right here with her. eventually, though, it dawns on her that maybe they should at least check in with their friends, let everyone know that they haven't disappeared.

so it is with that in mind that she starts up a video on the network, with ven somewhere nearby. the backdrop is the forest. where in the forest? nobody really knows. they sure don't. but aqua at least looks apologetic when she appears on screen. ]


Looks like we lost a bit of time. Sorry to anyone who might have worried about us. Ven and I are fine.

[ she glances to the side at ven, leaving it open for him to respond if he wants. ]

[Aqua might blame herself, but Ven knows he carries a share of it, too. They both messed up here; they'll both deal with the consequences. So he doesn't hide when Aqua finishes her piece, reaching out to grab her phone from her and give a wave and a sheepish smile into it.]

Sorry, guys - I guess we aren't that great at directions here, at least not yet. If anyone's been worried, we're fine. Did we miss anything?

Anyone out there know how to do stitches? Asking for a friend.

On a completely unrelated note what to do with a concussion and possible brain damage?

[Quieter.]

...The brain damage is old don't worry about it.

[When the feed turns on, it's very clear Ven's in his room in the dorms, seated at his desk. It looks like just the other two-person rooms, with the basic furniture and everything. There's two differences, though: very unlike normal, someone's gone and stuck those glow-in-the-dark stars over the portion of the wall that's visible and even onto the bit of ceiling that can also be seen, and a small telescope of the old fashioned brass spyglass type is laying on the desk behind him. Ven himself gives the camera a wave and a smile, looking for all intents and purposes like a completely normal, cheerful, sixteen-year-old boy with abnormally fluffy blond hair.]

Hey there, everyone - I'm Ventus, but call me Ven, I usually go by that most of the time. If you know Aqua, she might've mentioned me; we're students together. Or we were, until she wasn't an apprentice anymore, but we still live together and train together. She's one of my best friends.

[There's another smile, a happy one, but those with sharp eyes might notice a hint of wistfulness in it. Ven is Not Good at concealing his emotions, and the lack of the third member of their trio is something that brings him down.]

Aqua explained what she knew about this place, but I got a message on this phone and I had another question, and neither of us really know a lot about this world so I'd thought I'd ask everyone. Has anyone heard of "dualiseats?" [There's a brief glance down at something off-screen, like he's checking something, before he nods and looks back at the camera.] Yeah, that's it - "dualiseats." There's a message about going to work for them tomorrow, but I've never really had a job before, so I don't know what's going on. And I didn't sign up for this, so can you just... have jobs here? Like the guys in charge just decide you need one, or something like that?

I mean, I don't mind having a job, I just don't know how you get one. But I need to pay Aqua back what she lent me.

[A moment's pause, then a small shrug and another smile.] Anyway, uh, I guess that's it. If anyone's got any answers for my questions, thanks in advance!

[at approximately noon today, no matter what your phone settings, you hear a loud, harsh alarm tone, and the following broadcast. the voice is heavily distorted, difficult to tell its gender or whether it’s human, alien, or robot, though the intonation is much more variable than how the iterations speak. the screen of your phones during this broadcast displays a graphic of a red anatomical heart set against a plain, light grey background. there is no username listed.]

BEFORE THERE CAN BE ANY ACTION, A REVOLUTION MUST WAKE THE SLEEPING PEOPLE.

ARE YOU AWAKE YET?

OR DO YOU STILL BELIEVE THE LIES THEY’VE FED YOU?

WAKE UP! WAKE UP!

LISTEN TO THE HEART.


[the broadcast ends with the same braying tone, and the screen cuts to black. there will be no responses from the poster, and within fifteen minutes, the admins have wiped the message from the network. sure hope some intrepid soul finds a way to download and store the message offline ...

on an ooc note: feel free to use this post as a place to comment around, discuss wtf just happened with your comrades, jump into action threads, etc.!]

[The video feeds open on a human man. His features are sharp and regal, but there's no haughtiness or hostility to them. His long hair flows down well past his shoulders, and a well-groomed beard highlights the lines of his jaw ... but more than any of that, what will jump out immediately is that he's in rough shape.

[His cheeks are sunken, his skin looks pale, and there are dark rings under his eyes. There are a few fresh cuts on his face, including one that runs along his cheekbone that's highlighted by a purpling bruise.

[He's smiling though. It's a tired smile, one that clearly takes a bit of effort at the moment, but a smile nonetheless.]


Hello to anyone who might be listening. My name is Orren Organa - of the Jedi Order, should that mean anything to any you. From what I understand of our current situation, though, I understand that it might not.

[He sighs and tucks an errant lock of hair behind his ear.]

That same situation is why I'm putting out this call. The Head's information was ... helpful, but vague enough that I'm left with some questions about this place. I'd appreciate whatever insight that anyone who's been here longer can offer, and ... that's about it, really.

[A beat.]

Apologies for my appearance as well. I was in a bit of a rough spot before I was pulled here, but I'm quite alright.

[Or, at the very least, he will be. His connection to the Force is still as strong here as ever, and he can already feel it working to repair the damage to his body.]
