Week 2, Day 1 [Video 01]

Feb 22, 2010 20:55

[There's a strange crackling noise on the Hitomi and then -

light, and a shape, a shape of a human head unfocused and moving, making the video dizzying. There's noises of stomping, of somebody in being in a bad temper. A sudden stop, and suddenly there's a clear focus on a new face. Or rather, his jawline - he is busy looking up at the sky, his ( Read more... )

[There's a chuckle in the boy's voice as he speaks.]

What are you going on about?

[Audio] guerrilla_morph February 24 2010, 04:40:39 UTC

[It takes Marco five throws to finally give up - for now - on getting rid this phone-computer thing. So he is exploring the Hitomi, learning its functions. (Marco is the computer genius, next to Ax, of course.) So far, there's that map and something about coordinates. It's all in a language Marco has never seen before and yet, he can understand it. Another Ellimist thing, he's sure of it. (What does the Ellimist want him to do now? Hell, why didn't the Ellimist say, "Hey, what's up, good job on your mother by the way," before landing him into one of his other dimensional games. It would've been polite.)

But the replies. This is new. Marco takes his time, learning about the functions on the Hitomi. This voice, in particular. He doesn't know who he is. Or what, for that matter. But he still has to reply, or else he still knows nothing, which is the worse thing that can happen to anyone.

So, Marco replies, his voice dry but neutral.]

I'll tell you when you get older.

[Kadaj's eyebrows raised at the response as the ever-present smirk lingered on his face. Really, how many times had he heard that old excuse used on him? How could people still be so ridiculously ignorant-- but they were simple, stupid humans, of course. He couldn't expect too much of them. He'd usually just leave them alone since they were so useless, but he was feeling particularly malicious, especially after the recent string of events that the world had shoved him into.]

That's an awfully amusing little phrase, coming from someone like you.

Re: [Audio] guerrilla_morph February 24 2010, 21:56:27 UTC

[Marco really, really doesn't know what's going on. They are people talking to him, not caring about learning his name but rather make some interesting but useless information. He's just about ready to give up on the natives and go find information on his own. The tone in his kid's voice reminds Marco too much of David, the failed Animorph, the mistake that would haunt them as long as they lived (it's not going to be long anyway). So smug and confident and clearly behind the facade -

he's all broken.

It takes one to know one, after all.

But Marco is Marco, and he just can't help himself.]

Don't say that, man.

You'll make a guy cry.

Especially when we hardly know one another.

[Interstellar what now?]

Oh, are you an alien?

guerrilla_morph February 24 2010, 04:52:52 UTC

[Okay, Marco has to play this game. Because he messed up big time, he just might blow everyone's cover to hell and high water.

Gotta play this safe.]

Nah, I'm a native citizen in America, although I have heard it might as well be its own planet anyway.

My dad works for a company that deals with space matters. [Which is more or less true, anyway.]

necro_fantasia February 24 2010, 05:36:52 UTC

Oh? You're American?

I'm Japanese myself. [As you can undoubtedly tell from her blonde hair, violent eyes, and mob cap.] And you know, it's funny, I actually have done some work in space as well~

guerrilla_morph February 24 2010, 05:43:28 UTC

[...sure as hell doesn't look Japanese, but Marco has never looked too closely at those matters before.]

What, you an astronaut or something? Work at NASA?

Are you all right, young man? I don't think these machines let you lose them easily.

[Iroh didn't understand a lot of the words that were said -- interstellar, and Legoland, and Ellimist might as well be nonsense. But he could tell the person speaking was new, and probably didn't want everyone to hear his angry rant.]

[Audio] guerrilla_morph February 24 2010, 04:59:19 UTC

Nah, I'm cool now.

Although I wish I know where I am, to start with.

'Cause I'm pretty sure this ain't home.

[Of course it's not home, Marco lost his home to the Yeerks, but got his mother back (most importantly) and now lives in a valley where alien can-openers scrap the bark off of trees in peace.]

Re: [Audio] firebendingtea February 26 2010, 02:11:24 UTC

I'm told this land is Kannagara. I haven't been here long.

[Audio] guerrilla_morph February 26 2010, 02:38:59 UTC

[Yeah. Marco never heard of it either, but that doesn't mean much. Galaxy's a big place.]

If this isn't Earth, then why are there humans? And sorry if I sound rude or anything, but who are you?

Yeah, "shit" sums all this crap up pretty nicely.

[Audio] guerrilla_morph February 24 2010, 07:05:00 UTC

[Okay. Okay. This whole answering machine thing is getting annoying. But really, Marco is doing his best to stay calm and not to lose his temper. Again.]

You have no idea.

Who are you?

[Audio] livesbyinstinct February 25 2010, 01:36:55 UTC

Inuzuka Kiba. [And there's a deep bark.] And that's Akamaru. Welcome to idiot land. Sounds like you'll fit right in with the rest of us.

Re: [Audio] guerrilla_morph February 25 2010, 04:12:57 UTC

Alright Inuzuka.

[He hesitates and then says,]

I'm Marco.

And I'm more interested in what is this land of idiots.

[ Another stranger. They come often these days. This one, at least, seems to recognize that he is being meddled with by a sentient force. ]

Elimist?

Is that a word for deity in the tongue which you use?

[ Audio ] guerrilla_morph March 1 2010, 15:16:36 UTC

[Whoever these people are, they are not what Marco will call useful.]

I don't worship deities. Ellimist is a name, nothing more.

[ Audio ] callmelegion March 1 2010, 15:22:28 UTC

What should it matter if you worship deities or not?

Regardless of whether they are suitable for worship -- and I assure you I am the only one who is -- they have brought you to this world.

From the tone of your broadcast, I took it that this was your understanding.

[Audio] guerrilla_morph March 1 2010, 15:34:24 UTC

[Okay, it takes a while to Marco to actually process what this weirdo is trying to say.]

If only if I was a dumber person and call the Ellimist a deity or a god or whatever, then it'll make my life a whole lot simpler. But I not, and that whole deal is a lot more complicated to that, and I am not interested in explaining myself to you who I don't know who you are.

And unless your name is Yasmine Bleeth, then more than likely you won't find me converting to your cult or whatever.
