[What's UUUUUUUUUUUUUP Anchor. Hope you guys like awkward teenagers, because this one's all up on your network with an announcement.

Peter's not what one would call a professional when it comes to recording videos, but he's figured out how to work the communicators efficiently enough to where there isn't to much awkward fumbling between the time he starts recording and the time he sets the comm down. It's not the most exciting video ever, just some scruffy looking kid in a slightly oversized jacket standing in a creepy, abandoned lab of some sort, surrounded by dusty computers and abandoned equipment. I mean, there's probably been a horror movie or two that have started off this way, but don't think too hard about that.]


Hey, um. I... didn't plan this part, so I'm uh, just gonna wing it. So, my name's Peter. Peter Parker, I'm from New York. People from Hadriel might know me, I was there for... I wanna say close to a year? So that's, um. That's me.

...Hi.

[Okay, that introduction probably wasn't quite as painful as it could have been, even with the awkward little wave he tacks onto the end of it. He isn't any more comfortable about being in front of the camera than he was a moment ago, but now that the introduction is out of the way, the whole getting down to business part does seem to come a bit easier. He clears his throat and stands up a little straighter.]

Anyway, uh. Two things. One, I know there's a lot of crazy like, sci-fi technology around here, I know people are probably pretty confused about how to get it to work and how to repair it. Um, I've got it figured out, for the most part. I can- I can get at least some of this stuff working again, if not most of it. I can probably make replacements for other stuff that's beyond repair. There's kind of a lot of ground to cover around here though, and I haven't had a chance to really explore everything. So, um, I'm gonna need your help. What I need from you guys is to help me find and prioritize what areas and equipment need attention first. Like say, the medbay, life support equipment, other things we need to like, live.

And before anyone asks, no, the bartender robot doesn't count as a high priority project. Sorry, guys.

Okay, thing two. I'll be setting up shop in the R&D area for... y'know, R&D things. It's below the agricultural areas. I'm gonna get some kinda station set up here where I can give you guys... uh, lessons, I guess? Like basic computer stuff, how to work some of the machines, how to fix the computers and machines if you need to. Like, anything you guys wanna know. The more people we have that know how to keep this place running, the better our chances of survival are, right? Right.

[Right.

And. That's it, he's out of shit to talk about. After a couple probably uncomfortable seconds of silence, he moves to grab his communicator to switch it off.]


And uh, that's it! Peter Parker, R&D, hit me up. Later!

[The end]

[ Have an utterly shocked and mildly horrified woman staring at you while searching for something to say for... way longer than is comfortable. ]

Are you the person who responded to my post about death and helping one another? The plumbering guy?

[ The look is not going away. The look is here to stay. We built this city! We built this city on this look of hooooorrooooor. ]

Fine. Fair. You're the guy I was talking with about plumbing, though, and we decided we could make up our own words if we wanted to. This isn't just the same account. You're the same person.

[ Maybe it's not that bad. Maybe he's just one of those guys with a perpetual baby-face. Maybe he is in his late twenties and just looks like he's not old enough to see an R-rated movie by himself. ]

You're in R&D right now? With all the tools, right? I'm going to come and have a look.

[ She does not tell him that she's coming to have a look at him, but she absolutely is. That is the entirety of her plan so far. Never claimed it was a good plan. ]
