[When the communicator turns on, the first setting that it gets turned on to is just voice. A male voice can be heard, cursing softly.]

This shouldn’t be that hard to work. If that button does—ah, there we go.

[The voice setting is turned into video, and a young man with blond hair appears on screen.]

Well, looks like this thing is finally working. I was almost getting tempted to bash it against the wall, but the technology is too good to waste. Or was it the network? [Grins.] So, from the depths of despair we emerge, possibly victorious, possibly having made things worse.

[His grin slowly fades, and he grimaces as he looks down at his clothes.] And all this good leather wasted out in the rain... I was glad those others didn't offer their robes to the rest of us. Not something very leader-like, isn't it? More like a monk of some sort.

[He turns the camera, offering a shot of the rubble.] It's been a real joy and pleasure moving rocks, but after hearing about those airships and the bombings, I'd like to know more about those. If there's a way to fly, I want it, and I'd like it now.

You could always try growing wings.

I've heard that can be fairly painful, growing them for the first time.

Nothing so high comes so easy.

Unless you're not flying with wings, and in an airship. That's much easier to use.

Oh, there's a way to fly. It isn't for everyone, though.

Hello there. [Leans into the camera.] I'm not everyone, I hope you'll come to see that in time. What's this way?

Maybe not, but we'll see.

Wings, of course.

To fly?

[ that's a rather lofty goal. the only way to fly in her world is via ancient airships, which must first be salvaged and repaired, or by aeon, and the latter isn't exactly possible anymore.

Yuna tilts her head. ]

Whee are you wanting to go?

To fly, my lady. It's one of the best feelings in the world, to be free, high above the clouds.

[He sounds wistful, and he is, until he smiles.]

Away from here. Airship captains don't do well on the ground for too long.

Y—You have an airship?!

[ this definitely catches her off guard. This man certainly didn't look Al Bhed, and yet he knew of — even claimed to have an airship. ]

[Her nose wrinkles somewhat.] You want to be in one of those monstrosities?

Better then being in this pile of wreckage. My ears must be deceiving me, someone doesn't like flying?

[8|] I've never been flying.

Irritable as these devices can be, they remain useful if also impersonal.

It is nicer to talk to people in person, isn't it? I like it myself, but they must have needed something for those people afraid to come out of their rooms.

It would depend on whom is being spoken to. Though there's much to learn simply by using this device alone.

You are a leader?

The leading man of this little story. [Heh.] I'm an airship captain. Leading a group isn't really my thing.

It is a story that continues to grow.

I've never heard of anyone having one of those planes here. Could you fly something like that if we had it?

Edited 2012-10-06 16:57 (UTC)

Absolutely! [She's so interesting looking. Much prettier then a Bangaa.]

Just let me at it, and I can fly anything.

Could you fly a... fish??

[ Hah. Hahah. Flying. Fish. Yeah she needs to work on that one... ]

[The accent sounds extremely familiar to him as well has his speech patterns. British? Possibly.]

You know of airships?

[He'd never seen or heard of airships but he did use a certain flying machine once...]

[Archadian, actually, but who's checking?]

Do I know airships? I wouldn't be much of an airship captain if I didn't! Why, do you?

[He cocks an eyebrow. Either this man is from another time or another place entirely.]

No, I do not, but I had yet to meet anyone that did.
