[ It is too blasted cold on this barren, cold wasteland of a country. Not that Aurican will say that; even in the face of death he will refuse carry a lack of respect and dignity befitting of his draconic nature.  (Besides, there is more room to be on planetside than on the moon base, even though Aurican will miss the view of the stars there terribly.)

But that is neither here or there because he is having a blast with one particular gift given to him. Someone (Kang) has given Aurican a Spanish guitar.

Being totally unfamiliar with this type of musical instrument, he makes a go at it. Considering his thousands of years of experience of learning and experimenting with the musical arts, it's a not bad of an attempt, if not a little over enthusiastic. ]

I never celebrated the Christmas holiday before, as my home world never had it, so I completely forgotten about it until someone has given me this Christmas gift.

(Thank you, Kang, I will treasure it always.)

Sadly, this makes me woefully unprepared in gift giving and the day has already gone. But I hear the new year will be approaching soon. Is it normal to celebrate a new year here? My kind usually doesn't, but I know some races back home will celebrate the upcoming year ahead. I suggest a small concert for a new year celebration, and a belated Christmas gift from my behalf.

[ He plucks at the strings, listening hard to their sounds, still out of tune. He is still learning the way of the guitar.  He fiddles with the various nuts at the top of the guitar, taking obvious delight in the variations of twang of each string.]

Although a few music lessons won't go amiss. I certainly need one, at any case. 

[ Just to prove his point, one of the strings became far too loose, becoming near useless. Aurican looks down at his instrument, aghast. ]

Oh.

[ after a week of constantly bumping into shit and having to get people to lead him around from place to place, karkat vantas has to resort to desperate measures. it's a struggle even getting the tablet to work for him, and at first, he doesn't seem to notice it's recording, continuing to frown and fiddle with it for a little while, before he begins to speak. ]

So. [ one might notice that his pupils are unusually dilated, only the faintest ring of grey iris visible around the edges. ] I'm going to make this brief, if just because I'm only half convinced this thing is actually recording and I'm not just yodeling into the void, but thanks to the astonishingly warm welcome one of your residents gave me, I'm blind. And as I'm not the resident No Eyes Mcgee among my social circle, and I've walked into enough door frames over the past week that I'll be very surprised if I haven't sustained permanent brain injury, I'm requesting that one of you make yourself some vague parody of useful and fix it.

[ there is a pause, before, reluctantly; ]

It was a dragon, if that makes any difference.

[ Sadly, Aurican didn't quite understand what is going with the tablets and the kittens part despite his earlier discussion at Susan Storm's post.

To those more technologically-inclinded there was a brief moment of him mentioning missions, along with the words "U.E", "nuclear warfare" and "understanding the science", which is enough for a certain program to swap his transmission for a picture everyone is familiar with. ]

Cut for you know what )

[If your character was reading the network at just the right time or is some kind of tech ace, they might have caught the original content of Sue's post--a mundane announcement that she's back from a supply mission and apparently "the good shampoo" is now available again...and pointedly no mention of the mutiny.

However, Tony Stark got to it almost immediately, and now it's a kitten picture.

Sue has no idea this has happened.]

[ There is what appears to be an old but handsome fellow, with ears pointed in a rather elf-like fashion. But with his hair long, it's easy to miss that feature. The yellow eyes, however, are impossible to miss.

He looks down at the camera, thoughtful and humming a small tune to himself before speaking. ]

It has been . . . a very long time, I see. I leave Exsilium for what feels like yesterday, but only to arrive here. Imagine my confusion! I thought I had recently left the pale moon of my world and found myself back on another pale white moon.

[ The joviality of the old elf's face is soon gone, somber now. ]

I have heard of Exsilium's fate, and I am saddened to hear it. I wish I was there to help those in need. I do hate to be tardy.

[ There might've been a cool hint of bitterness in his voice, but it is gone like vapor. ]

I suppose there's an occupation I could put myself in, hmm? I doubt I would be much use as a mail carrier as I used to be when I was very young, but I think there something I can do here.

( Remy’s hanging out in what passes for one of the classier taverns, leaning back in a wooden chair as his hair falls over his eyes. He’s eyeing the communicator a little devilishly, and, as ever, he’s shuffling a deck of cards. And though the process is constant, he eventually pulls out exactly the card he meant to: the Ace of Diamonds. )

Diamonds are called Coins, sometimes. If it was gonna be an element, it’d be Earth. Has ta do with the physical, your body an’ your wealth. People who do work like that, too—merchants, traders.

Sometimes it jus’ means you’re an achiever. Y’like gettin’ things done.

( He nods, solemnly, before replacing the card in the deck and continuing with his shuffling. He pulls out the Ace of Clubs, next. )

Clubs’re different. Called Wands, in the old days. They’re Fire, willpower. People who do hard work, wit’ their hands. If you’re someone who likes destruction, that’s your suit. But that’s no so bad. The world needs breakin’ down an’ buldin’ up.

( Another nod, another tilt of his head. The next card is the Ace of Hearts. )

Hearts’re special, some people think. Used ta be called Cups. They gotta do with Water, with emotion. People who do things spir’tually.

Hearts’re socializers. They like other people, more than things.

( He kisses the card lightly before shuffling it back in, pulling out the last. The Ace of Spades. )

Now, Spades. Also called Swords, sometimes. They’re Air, freedom. But wit’ that comes unpredictability. If you’re a Spade, y’like havin’ authority. But that comes wit’ responsibility, an’ consequences.

Spades’re explorers. They like the unknown, seekin’ out what they might be ‘fraid of o’ what might bring ‘em joy.

( That card goes back into the deck, too. Shuffle, shuffle, shuffle. Remy smiles at the communicator once more. )

So, here’s a question. Which’re you?

I have gotten bored with my old job. I have learned all of the streets and the short-cuts of the city, which was entertaining to do, but now I want a change of pace.

Are there any other jobs a dragon can provide his uses?

[ Here is a video, showing Aurican his usual self. However, his usually bright gold scales have dimmed considerably and more importantly, he's panting. His tongue is not sliding out of his mouth like a dog's would, but he does show that even the largest of wolves and lions cannot best him in the amount of large canines.

He takes several deep breathes before speaking. ]

I thought the plague only affects humans.

I do not understand diseases. Can someone explain them to me?
 
 
[ Aurican doesn't look any different, even though he has undergo a thousand years of change. He is still larger now (he might have some difficulty in fitting inside doors now), his horns seem a little longer, scales still shining, but his wings have undergo the greatest growth.

His wings are now large enough for him to fly. ]

Does anyone learn how to fly? Is there anyone I can learn from?

[No video. Getting to be a habit with him these days, but really... who wants to see him looking like he does right now? Thank him later. If he sounded bad before, he sounds much worse now. The way someone would sound when they've spent a week vomiting. That's why he keeps the message relatively short and sweet.]

I tested the, um... the verstatsi. The U.E.'s drug.

In case the obvious needed stating: don't try it.

Full report coming once I can get my ass outta bed, but I can tell you it's about half-opiate, half-synthetic. The comedown's a total bitch and I ain't just talking like regular use. I mean like one shot and you're gonna need another fix in a few hours unless you like spending the next few days worshiping the porcelain god. Seriously, I'm a professional and this stuff... is bad. I don't think we got a lotta samples around here but take my word for it and don't mess around with it. I done H. This is worse than H. Way worse.

So that's your little P.S.A. and don't roll your eyes 'cause this ain't some D.A.R.E. bullshit, yo. I'm serious.

[ Oh look he's now chosen to attempt to begin mastering the technology he's been given. ]

All things considered, I suppose we were sufficiently informed upon our arrival, though I will reserve my judgement until a later date. That said, I wouldn't say I am left without many questions. I would be interested in knowing more of this history of this world I've come to from those who've been here longer than I.

[ He is as interested in the stories of the people here as he is in the stories of the place itself. ]

And as a new arrival, I feel it's a fine time as any to introduce myself, and learn the names and faces of the others here with me.

I am Elrond, the former Lord of Imladris. Regardless of the circumstances, it is a pleasure to meet you all.

[ in a rare turn of events, you get one dean winchester on the network today. for those who know him, he's looking more thoughtful than usual-- though there's still something close to a smirk on his face. ]

If there's one thing the Initiative's pretty good at, it's gettin' a bunch of people here. I mean, our numbers have quadrupled or something since I got here, and sure there've been some ups and downs in our dandy population, but it's still peaking. [ he has a point with this, bear with him… ]

So that makes me wonder, how many of you weren't yanked straight from your beds back home? Meanin', you were in an entirely different world before Exsilium decided it was its turn? I know there were some of you 'round before, but what about from the new bunch? Or anyone who's left.

Also, if you've ever taken an otherworld-ly tour and gone home after, that counts as well.

So let's hear it! All you aliens and mutants or whatever gotta have a few things to tell, right?

[ because in the movies it's you guys who get to do that kinda stuff. or something. but have a smile if that'll hopefully help you with the whole show and tell thing. ]

[ Here is a more unusual post from Aurican, the dragon that didn't know how to read.

Until now.

Do forgive the misspellings, it's his first try. ]

Hello my name is Aurican. I am learning to write. Kang taught me.

I.t is easy to read. but hard to write. My clawss make it hard and this keyboard is small. I will be better. I learn well.

thank you for helping me.

[ The disgruntled expression on Shinji's face is basically his default expression as long as Aurican is inhabiting his body. ]

I am not sure how humans managed to survive. I always assumed human senses were almost the same as dragon senses until now. Eyesight makes the darkness at night even more forbidding, if that's even possible. I am still learning how to walk, and I am just not going to bother learning how to run.

Possibly the only advantage humans have with dragon senses is the sense of touch. Though I suppose that shouldn't be surprising, considering the lack of scales. The hands make things much easier to hold on to.

Are there any non-humans in human forms? How do you learn to adapt?

I'm assuming everyone has figured out what is going on by now, but then I realize now that when I agreed to aid the Initiative in their battle, I was making an assumption that they had enough competence to could keep the single greatest weapon they have working. This was clearly a rather unfortunate error on my part. This is Ricasthix the dragon, the red one, speaking from the body of a young lady who I am told goes by the name of Rue.

Initiative, I am not going to make any more assumptions about your competence, so I hope you are listening to this. I am a forty foot long, nine hundred pound dragon in the body of a four foot tall, ninety pound human. My skills are not geared towards this situation, but you none the less expect me to plot and execute an elaborate art heist in this state? With this and the previous incident that shuffled around everyone's ages, you are going to run out of the grudging trust and respect you have so far received from most of the rest of us. Do not use the time machine again unless you are sure it works properly, or you can expect to see resistance cells starting to pop up again. The leaders of United Earth will laugh while we tear ourselves apart fighting in the streets.

Did I leave any part of that unclear in any way?

I am out of money.

[ This is clearly distressing - how is he gonna build his hoard now? He has collected several different kinds of glass bottles already. He's been collecting rocks as well, along with sheets of paper, tattered magazines, and different kinds of toy balls and horseshoes. He needs to get more more more. ]

I was told I can get more by getting a job. Doing things and in return I get money.

How do I get one? I don't know how it all works.

[The camera clicks on to reveal a skinny kid with a mess of brown hair. He's holding the tablet in front of him, so the view's a bit shaky; it doesn't help that he's fidgeting and gesturing with his other hand as he speaks, first and foremost being a quick and awkward wave hello.]

Hey. Hello? This is on, right? You know, they should put a light on these things to show they're transmitting. Maybe they do, I didn't really - [Barely a pause as he checks himself, gets back on track.]

Sorry. Hi, my name's Peter. Peter Parker. So I got the welcome tour, and I guess my big question is - where can we get decent food around here?

[Priorities. He got most of the relevant info the other day, anyway. He almost looks like he's done, but then he abruptly remembers something and speaks up again in a rush.] And I made a thing. I mean, I didn't really make it, I just re-made it. I probably messed some of it up, but I guess nobody here's going to know any better, right?

It's for Collette, but I figured anybody could use it. Let me know if you have questions, or just type "help" and it should cover the bases. And don't forget to use your lanterns. [And Peter out - no wait, just kidding. He's half a second from ending the transmission before he stops.]

It's a game, by the way. The thing.

[He's done for real this time, pending an attachment:]

Oh! Hullo, everyone!

[Pippin is grinning, proud of himself for figuring out how to make a mass message, instead of just responding to one.]

I hope I'm not bothering anyone, but I was curious if anyone could tell me about the taverns here, such as which are the best, which are the worst, and so forth. You see, we Hobbits enjoy a fine ale just as much as the Big Folk, and it's been a frightfully long time since I've had one.

[He's exaggerating. It hasn't even been a month yet.]

So you see, I'd be most grateful if I could have this information, and perhaps we could even go together? Ehm, thank you for listening!

[He waves at the camera and then puts on his concentrating face as he tries to figure out how to end the message. But then suddenly he thinks of something and looks startled.]

I'm not offering to buy anybody a drink, mind you. I'm sure you're all lovely people, but I don't want to spend all my pocket money in one go. You understand, I'm sure.

[The feed turns on to a rather large eye filling the view before drawing back to reveal a reptilian and no doubt draconic snout for those who would recognise such things, covered in bronze scales. If the area that comes into view around the dragon gives a sense of just how large it is, his expression unreadable as he peers down at the communicator. His deep voice matching his size, the slightest hint of amusement can be heard in his tone, if said almost to himself.]

I trust that this is device is working correctly, a curious thing it is indeed. Far from the works of tinker gnomes, and far less likely to explode I would wager.

[ His expression and tone turning far more serious.]

I am Dragonlord Crucible, also known to many as Lord Governor Hogan Bight of the Lord City of Sanction to those from Krynn. I have spoken with a number from Krynn and would ask that any others from Krynn to make themselves known to me.

I have studied the information that has been made available in great depth, however I would appreciate any insight on the matters at hands that is not covered by the information available, whether regarding the missions or otherwise.

[ There is a video of something bright, golden, and shiny. It's moving fast and the video barely catches it before it switches off.

Then it switches back on again, this time showing a scaly, reptilian face that has the shape of a wedge and bright yellow eyes.

Then it switches off again.

And on again, showing the the underside of the golden creature's jaw. That's when it speaks with a slightly squawk. ]

Stop that and start working! How does this thing work I don't -

[ And then video shuts off again and stays that way until a few minutes later when it clicks back on again. The little wyrmling looks less than impressed, judging the narrowed eyes and the tightening of the jaws. ]

Is it working? I don't think my claws are good for this sort of thing. Can you hear me now?
