[Dealing with people face to face is hard, even if Pidge were to do it via communicator. She doesn’t know anyone here, and she’s hesitant to even be addressing the entirety of the Moira’s crew all at once like this. So she opts for the easier mode of communication: text. It’s like talking to the internet that way, and… Well, to be perfectly frank, that’s easier for her to handle.]

Hello, Moira crew. [Behind the screen she winces. Even she can tell that sounds awkward. But she presses on.] I’m new to this ship, but not new to space travel - trust me - but I am trying to gather some more information than what was given to me. Hoping someone onboard can help me out.

First: If the word “Voltron” means anything to you, contact me.

Second: If you know anyone with the last name “Holt”, contact me ASAP.


[There’s another hesitant moment before the typing resumes.] I can help out with any tech stuff in exchange for any useful information you’ve got. I’m good at it, and I’ve worked with alien tech before. The stuff here is new to me, but they gave me a job that works with it pretty closely, so I’m pretty sure I can figure it out soon enough. So: you help me, I help you. Fair, right?

Right. Cool. Let me know.

Yeah, but I didn't do it.

I was framed.
forgeabettertomorrow: (sure whatever you say)

It's a loooooong story and if I told you, there is literally no way you'd believe me.
forgeabettertomorrow: (Face tomorrow)

...Alright, you asked for it.

So, I have this twin brother. His name's Dromas.

When we were five years old, demons showed up at our doorstep. They killed my brother and my father, but I survived because I played dead. They cut me down and the wound was deep enough that they went on their way.

Fast forward nineteen years later, turns out Dromas' soul was brought to hell for...well, a reason I don't feel like getting into. He breaks out of hell, and since we're twins, decides he's going to try and plunge the world into war by killing ambassadors using my face and name.

All because he's pissed that I lived and he didn't.

So, I guess he's kind of in the right, but it's been a huge pain in the ass.

Oh, they gave him a new body. See, in our world, heaven and hell aren't just like...spiritual concepts. They're actual dimensions. They exist parallel to my world. Dromas grew powerful enough to break out on his own.

[Darin is being kind of vague because he doesn't want to call attention to the fact that he probably has very similar powers.]
forgeabettertomorrow: (Ehehehe well...)

[personal profile] forgeabettertomorrow 2016-10-23 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Nooooot exactly. Hoo boy...um...

[Oh boy, let's see how he can dance his way around this.]

Okay, so...normally once you die, that's it. Right? You go to heaven or hell and you either live with the Celestials for eternity or you're put under the boot of the Archfiends. I mean, this is what I'm assuming because, well, I've never died.

But the Archfiends...well, they took a special interest in Dromas, so they...decided to train him. To fulfill a prophecy.

[Darin rolls his hand at the wrist here as he attempts to dodge that he's part of that same prophecy, which is why his family was attacked in the first place.]

Soooooo...yeah, long story short, Dromas is bad at following rules and broke out on his own. The end.
forgeabettertomorrow: (sure whatever you say)

[personal profile] forgeabettertomorrow 2016-10-24 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
That's definitely not that. I need to find a way back home before Dromas decides to fulfill the prophecy on his own and wipes out humanity.

But yeah, total jackass.

You think you can? I mean, I'd be more than happy to give you a hand. I am a Master Blacksmith, after all.
forgeabettertomorrow: (Ehehehe well...)

[personal profile] forgeabettertomorrow 2016-10-24 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I mean...I'm an engineer assigned to the Ingress so.

I should probably be there to help.

[personal profile] forgeabettertomorrow 2016-10-24 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! I guess they saw my ability as a blacksmith and decided that working there would be a good fit.

I've only caused one fire so far!
forgeabettertomorrow: (I don't really get it but...)

[personal profile] forgeabettertomorrow 2016-10-24 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
Well, either way, I'm honestly trying my best to learn.

I don't like being at such a disadvantage, so I've been studying non-stop in my down time.
forgeabettertomorrow: (I don't really get it but...)

[personal profile] forgeabettertomorrow 2016-10-25 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
I mean, I'm sure there has to be. This place is bigger than the capital.

Hell, the castle could probably fit in the cargo hold.
