Ian Recker, starfighter supreme and recent savior of Earth, walks into the Nexus through an airlock door. He is obviously plagued by dark thoughts. His eyes are glued to the floor, and he barely notices the Nexus sign before he almost runs into it. Once he does, however, it's a whole other ball game. He glances around wildly, shocked to find

Oh, alright. The giant talking snake-people must be aliens. "Thanks for trying, anyway. You picked a hell of a time to visit Earth. If I were you, I'd go back to your home planet until the whole Krill mess blows over."

...I'm not in an infantry. Or a military. I'm freelance. Not that it makes breaking that news any easier.

"Merc, huh? You working in the war? The government's probably keeping you busy, considering how shorthanded everyone is."

Not really...well not that I can remember any how since I have amnesia; so I'm not that realiable in these kinds of circumstances.

Recker's fury subsides when Kickback admits to amnesia. He still glares daggers at Kickback, though. "If you're smart, you'll flag down whatever bug we haven't squashed yet and get off my planet once and for all. I'm sure they'll remind you of the atrocities they committed."

I'm not on your planet *he shakes his head* As for atrocities don't even get me started on that. Amnesia is a pain sometimes; i get people shouting at me for doing stuff that i can't even remember. Now the things I've done that i can remember I don't mind them shouting at me about; becuase I admit they weren't good. But it's what I am.

"Oh, right. Where is this place? What planet is it on?" Ian glares at Kickback distrustfully as he continues speaking. This robot didn't seem like one you could count on.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERECKER!!! <3333333 YOU WIN ABOUT A MILLION INTERNETS HOMGHOMGHOMG I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE ON EARTH WHO LIKED THAT GAME!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE <33333333333333333333 *cough* I kinda suck at it though and got distracted by other shiny things so I'm still not very far along. I don't care about spoilers as a rule, but I'm not surprised to hear it ends on a sad note. D: Poor guy.))
Io, meanwhile, has a fairly similar reaction to the mun there. She doesn't hear anything past "Ian Recker" and instantly dives headfirst into fangirl mode.
"EEEEEE RECKER!!" Y halo thar, flying tackle glomp! Well, maybe it'll cheer him up a bit, anyway.

"Huh?" Recker turns around just in time to take a flying tackle glomp to the face. Right now, all it does is scare him. "Ouch! Who are you?! How do you know my name?"

Io is now pretty firmly attached to his middle and emitting a slew of hearts. Incidentally, it's interesting to note that while her contact feels physical enough, it feels like she weighs nothing at all.
"Heeeeeee! I'm Io. You're awesome." Blink. Cough. She takes a moment to shove aside the fangirlism and be a bit more coherent. This does not include detaching herself, however.
"First time in the Nexus? All worlds meet here. In mine, you're a video game character. In an awesome game. I won't say more than that because you might not have done everything in it yet." Nodnod. She's noticed his lack of awesome alien symbiote and, while disappointed by it, is thrilled to think it may mean seeing him later after he gets it!

Recker does note this, but doesn't know how to respond to it. He busies himself trying to pry Io off.
"Uh...Hi. I'm Lieutenant Ian Recker of the Allied Earth Federation. ...Thanks?" Push push push. "...Can you let go of me?"
"Yeah. I just sort of wound up here after I left the launch bay." Wait, what was that? They made a video game about him? "Hey, that's pretty cool! Are you from the future?"
