Hello? Hello?

[Is this odd looking sending crystal on? He hopes so, or else he must look very silly holding this thing to his face and talking to nothing.]

Greetings, fellow captives. [He says with the most charming smile.]

I am Zevran, or Zev to my friends. It seems we will be together for some time, and I'll be cooking for you. [Ohhhhh boy who put an assassin in the kitchen and thought this was a good idea?]

Might as well be friendly, yes? I have been told we are all from different places. How exciting. I wonder if you all could tell me something about your world. I'm curious. I'll start, how about that?

I am from Thedas. Where Humans, Elves, Dwarfs and Qunari live-- there maybe others from my world here, I haven't had the chance to look yet. Anyways, I am from the country Antiva, home of the finest wine in the world, which I could really use some of that right now. If anyone knows where there is a bar it would be much appreciated.

[He says that last part with smirk.]

So tell me, what's your world like?

[lethen]

[This is... an elf, although one he does not recognize. The mention of Thedas has him on edge. With everything else so foreign, he's not sure how to approach another of his own kind. In the past it would have been only indifference.]

Mine is the same.

[Well, still indifference. They may as well get this out of the way; they are bound to encounter each other at some point.]

[crowkiller]

I figured there had to be at least one other here.

[And it was an elf! What were the odds.]

How do you like all this-- [He waves his hand in the air as he looks for a word.] Space?

[lethen]

[At least this elf doesn't assume friendliness due to their lineage alone. Merrill learned that lesson.]

I am not fond of it. [He can be honest. Looking out a window makes him wildly uncomfortable.] You are from Antiva? That is not a country I've seen.

[crowkiller]

I am.

[He smiles proudly at that before his eyes narrow at the screen.]

From your accent, let me guess...Tevinter?

[readytocomply]

here.

[Bucky gets to the room and stands outside the door, unsure if he should go in. Or knock. He doesn't know.

All he knows is that he'd made a post looking for Steve and a bunch of other hims had shown up. It's too much.]

[crowkiller]

[Oh. He actually came. He hopes he didn't bring the whole party with him, espeically since his daggers have been misplaced since arriving. He hopes the door though, and after making sure he is alone he steps back to let him in.]

Glad to see you didn't bring the party with you.

[readytocomply]

I wouldn't do that.

[But they don't know each other. This man doesn't know what to expect of Bucky.]

I didn't know where to go.

I'm from Kirkwall, home of blood mages, overly determined Templars, and Qunari that rampage and sometimes I dream of vacations in Antiva.

[crowkiller]

Qunari rampages? That sounds fun. [Another!!! Well, this is starting to feel more and more like home.]

It's quite the place I recommend it. How long have you been away from Kirkwall?

[otiosity]

The most fun I've ever had. My favorite part is where they stab you with a spear. A really big spear, in fact.

[Though she doesn't quite look like she's from Thedas. She's ditched the armor and now wears a simple loose t-shirt and black leggings.]

Six months that I remember and a year that I don't. It's a complicated story.

[wallride]

[okay on one hand, dwarves and elves are kind of familiar to lúcio - he's read fantasy novels but also...]

Woah, woah. What are Qunari?

audio

[crowkiller]

Very big. They have horns. Strong and extremely serious. I don't think they can smile actually.

Re: audio

[wallride]

They sound like a fun time. We don't have anyone like that where I'm from, unfortunately. It's just humans and omnics.

[grasstiara]

[She was initially interested in the message since she spotted the pointed ears and hoped it was another Nedian, but alas it was not. At least the message was informative to her; she loves hearing about other people's worlds.]

Um--after hearing about your world, my world pales in comparison so I'm not sure if you would find it interesting...

[I mean Elves and Dwarves?? Those are stuff she read about in fairy tales on Earth. She never even heard of Qunari!]

[video]

[crowkiller]

Really? From your ears I would have thought you were a native of Thedas.

Tell me of your world, I'm sure it is just as fantastic.

[video]

[grasstiara]

No... Sorry. I've never heard of Thedas before, but I also thought you were a Nedian so I guess that's fair?

--And if you say so, but don't say I didn't warn you!

[She pauses to clear her throat.]

Anyway, I come from a world called Expel and was raised in a small village named Arlia. It's... a pretty peaceful village and there are a ton of forests around, but there aren't really any tourist spots in my village. Also, unlike your world, there are only Expelians on that planet. But, if you were to visit other planets around the universe I'm sure you'd meet up with other races like Earthlings.

[liberaltus]

My world? Similar to yours I would expect, if you are indeed from Thedas. Different in certain respects, possibly, but that is the magic of this flying contraption.

[Another wino from Thedas, Dorian is going to have a difficult time keeping his private store private.]

[crowkiller]

[Come on pal, be a friend.]

Another? There are so many of use. And what year is it for you? Apparently I'm not up to date with the current events of our world.

[liberaltus]

[His supplies are rather vast, but not unlimited. Harm springs from excess...advice Dorian should probably take for himself.]

The year is Dragon 9:41, I'm not entirely certain how far ahead that would put me, but if you do not want to know how things play out I will do my level best not to spoil it. Unlike certain someones spoiling themselves.

[And having a meltdown, but Dorian will not point that out.]

Hello, Zevran. My name is Padmé Amidala.

[A smile is offered.

And yes, she does like learning about other places, and cultures, and in particular, politics. But she won't get in to politics just yet. If ever...]

My planet of birth is Naboo, a world bountiful in resources, with large grassy plains, swamps, lakes, and seas, which is inhabited by humans and the Gungans alike.

[ video ]

[crowkiller]

Well met, Lady Amidala.

[Hello pretty lady....]

I know of humans, but I don't know of Gungans. What exactly are they?

[ video ]

[democratically]

[Lady Amidala... It does earn a little quirk from her lips, as she tips her head.]

They're one of the sentient native inhabitants of Naboo. They are amphibious and tend to reside most of the time in their domes under the water. Although Gungan does cover both the Ankura, who are green skinned and a bit heavier set, with larger heads heads, and the Otolla, who are orange-ish skinned, with a slimmer build, long ears and retractable eyes. They're very good swimmers and can be quite fierce as warriors.

[deconstruct]

my world sucks, and we don't have any of that. what're you cooking?

[crowkiller]

[Thank god the Crows taught him how to read and write or else this would be a short conversation.]

Really? Well, that's too bad. Oh, do I get to pick? If that's the case then definitely something with the comforts of home.

[deconstruct]

so long as we have the ingredients, don’t see why not. what stuff did you have back home?
