2 ~ [VIDEO;;in which a carpet does calligraphy]

[brbflying]

[See Carpet! He waves to the camera, then ducks out of view to pick up a banner]

[he displays it to the camera, where he has carefully, painstakingly written:]

أجرباه‎

[for those of you who are lucky enough to have a Guide that can translate this sign, or those of you who can read Arabic, it says AGRABAH

Woah... I wonder what that says..

Carpeeeet~! What are you doing, you silly thing!

Re: [Video]

[brbflying]

[he shrugs a little (in response to the first comment, at least: nothing he can do if people can't read it, though it is disappointing), then flies up closer to the Guide, dropping the banner out of view, and waves hello]

[ She giggles a bit and waves right back. ]

You must have been very busy recently, huh.

Re: [Video]

[brbflying]

[nod! and then a gesture towards the camera (what about you?)]

[You. You're a flying carpet.

Tavros doesn't know why there are so many flying things on this ship but it's just about the most awesome thing in the world, okay. He has no idea what that says (it reminds him a little bit of the language in his world, Alternian), but oh my god it's a damn flying carpet.]

Re: [video]

[brbflying]

[oh look it's a video]

[SWOOPS CLOSER TO THE GUIDE]

[WAAAAVE]

Re: [video]

[flytoreadorfly]

[OH MY GOD CARPET YOU ARE THE COOLEST THING EVER

Tavros just kind of stares... and then waves back, looking a little unsure but still thinking this is awesome.]

Haha. Wow, you're, actually a carpet that's, alive. Or, something to that extent.

Re: [video]

[brbflying]

[nod! nod! n- brief pause at 'something to that extent' and then a much more vigorous nod, because yes he's alive thank you very much]

((OOC: is it okay if Lansa just...finds Carpet? He still has no idea how to use his guide, but a flying carpet would blow his mind!

[brbflying]

[Yeah, no problem! He's probably in a really public place anyway, so he shouldn't be too hard to find]

[action]

[adangerousplace]

[Lansa is strolling along, taking stock of his surroundings, the Guide buzzing lightly in his pocket for the time being, a rectangle of light showing through the seat of his pants.

So far, the place is kind of dull, all grey metal. Kind of like--

--whoa

whoa.

Damn, is that carpet...floating? goddamn!

He's gotta touch it! Immediately, he runs over, grabbing it hard like an excited kid, trying to see what's under it, holding it up. He knows magic is possible and all that crap, but it's still awesome as hell!]

Re: [action]

[brbflying]

[ah-]

[being grabbed, well, grabs his attention, so he bends in to peer at Lansa's face lol what u doin]

[and then]

[tugs on Lansa's hair]

[VIDEO]

[codename_fire]

[Well that's not something you see every day - a carpet AND Arabic. Hers however, is a bit rusty and she spends a bit filtering through her Guide before cropping up on screen.]

Agrabah?
Are you looking...for some place?

Re: [VIDEO]

[brbflying]

[he doesn't even care about the wait because OH MY GOD OH MY GOD YOU KNOW HOME AAAA or at least can read the words of his home]

[JUMPING INTO THE AIR LIKE AN EXCITED CARPET]

[NOD! and underlining the word with one tassel this is where I'm from!]

[VIDEO]

[codename_fire]

[She laughs lightly, pleased she can be of service at least in helping him...it...er - the Carpet enjoy something of its time.]

Admittedly, I've never been there - but I do know someone from that region, if that helps.
If you'd like, you can write to me for your responses - I'm building a program as we speak so that you can communicate.

[Already working on the translation window so the Carpet can have the link to her Guide and they can chat that way. She doesn't want him to be without a voice, though some of these translations...she'd have to ask Quatre about, oy.]

Re: [VIDEO]

[brbflying]

[he gets really, really excited when she's talking about knowing people from that region, because aaaaa this is great then it was totally worth the effort to write all this!]

[speaking of, he sorts of shakes his head and shrugs- it takes him so long to write something out that he wouldn't use it just to communicate, not when he's already used to interacting with people like this. he waves one tassel back and forth in a negating gesture- don't trouble yourself, please!]

[Video]

[original_witch]

Well aren't you a lovely dear.

I'm afraid I haven't seen anyone from there yet.

Re: [Video]

[brbflying]

[he nods understandingly. it seems to be a theme :c]
