[When the video clicks on, it's not to the confused face of a newcomer, to the concern of someone who has just been plucked out of their universe and thrown to another. It's not of anger, fear, annoyance, none of that. When the video focuses, it's on a man wearing a strange dark coat, twirling one end of a ginger mustache between his fingers. He has light blue markings on his face, pointed ears, wild hair, a patch over his right eye, and looks entirely nonplussed by this entire situation.
In fact, this particular newcomer seems settled enough that he's able to hold the TAB in a steady hand at the perfect MySpace angle. No, seriously, he has this selfie stuff on lock.]
You know, this reminds me of that time I was on the coast of Melharoo, on the planet Yaluk of the Fifth Nebula. There was an entertainment city -- Va Harn, I believe the name was -- with a resort that operated kind of like this. Woke up there without a clue of what I'd been doing the past week! Turns out I'd had a particularly nasty run in with a few Wabbernocks! [Here, he laughs. As if everything he's saying makes complete and total sense.] Last time I went there during a waning metra.
[He lets go of the edge of his mustache, letting it bounce back into place as he regards the lens of the TAB.]
It's been a good while since I've had the time to learn about a new culture, so go ahead fellow visitors and Thisavrounians! Give me your best stories. Tell me about your culture, your technology, your holidays-- anything you could possibly think of!
[And, almost as if it's an afterthought, rather than the whole point of this broadcast Coran come on]
Oh! And if anyone's heard some rumors about flying robotic lions -- particularly a colored set -- I'd appreciate the information.

[AUDIO | DON'T BE i love gaige this is amazing]
though gender and species probably won't matter as much as the fact that coran's like 10600+ and gaige is like 5, BUT YOU REACH FOR THE STARS MY MAIN MECHROMANCER]Digistructing? [He taps his chin in thought, repeating the word under his breath a few times as he rakes through the metric shit-ton of information floating around in that eccentric noggin] I don't think I have! Though I did focus more on nanorobotics than quantum coding in my youth.
[AUDIO | it can only end well, even if it ends terribly]
The age thing won't seem as bad in a few decades, right???][He's not just a researcher like Hammerlock. He's an engineer like I am, too. She shouldn't get her hopes up, but -- ooh! -- she really wants to get her hopes up.]
I'm not sure how far it's spread beyond my home galaxy, exactly? They don't have it here, which means if you wanted to, say, get involved in my reverse-engineering project... [Hold on, Gaige. Still in the icebreaker phase here.]
Anyway, broad terms? Digistruction's a way to quickly disassemble and reassemble things, down to the molecular level. You first get a scan of a -- well, of anything, really. Could be a hat, could be a person, could be a monster truck with a robot T-Rex on the back. That scan acts as a digital blueprint so you can break something down and put it all back together somewhere else. You can even make some changes to it, like changing the color, swapping out some components... or, y'know, rebuilding someone's body to fix more damage than a med-hypo ever could.
[VIDEO | goddamnit pretend his last response was video, too]
Sure, he had his moment to shine while finding workarounds for the teludav lenses, but as a whole the paladins don't really seem to... appreciate his particular brand of genius! And it's been ages since he'd stopped impressing Allura.
So yeah, this is more than definitely refreshing.]
Digital reconstruction? [He quirks up an eyebrow.] You're talking about teleportation? Of both organic and inorganic material? [There's a moment's pause as he strokes at one edge of that glorious mustache.] I take it it's on more of a controlled and localized scale than wormhole travel?
[He snaps his fingers, then, before pointing at the TAB, pointer finger out and thumb pointed up in a cool, casual finger gun.]
You've got yourself a deal! That is, if you already have something capable of the digistruction here. Usually a bit hard to rework an entire technology from inter-dimensional scraps! [Not that he. Has literally any experience with that.]
