[Before Bucky starts the video, he makes sure it's broadcasting to all of Thisavrou. The Moirans, Savrii, anyone that might be visiting. His expression is passive, reserved even, but his tone is firm.]

I'm gonna make this quick as I can. Most of the people here are from somewhere else. Different universes, different ways of doing things.

[His eyes narrow.]

But what's wrong is wrong and what's right is right.

[Even after what he's been through, he can still tell the difference.]

I wasn't on the Moira when the slavers took some of us, but I heard about them after. We've visited worlds that treat people like shit because they want to. They take advantage and they hurt carelessly. So far this place hasn't been that way. Everyone is nice. [Something that makes him wary, still.] But if anyone, and I mean anyone, starts treatin' robots like they're soul-less. Worthless. Nothing. They'll have to answer to me. Same goes for anyone else, robot or otherwise.

Everyone deserves to be treated fairly, got it?

[It's not a direct threat, but it's close. He knows some people won't like it, but they can come talk to him if they don't. He doesn't like the attention this might get him, but he knows it's a point worth making. Something he knows certain people need to hear. He cuts the feed.]

Where are you?

[GOTTA DEFUSE THIS SITUATION.]

Walking.

Just got off the EN-Line in Region Two.

Oh, good.

Go to the apartment. I'll meet you there.

I'm not feeling like company right now.

Even mine? That's a surprise. But too bad I'm already on the way.

[He wants to say no, he should say no. He's in a bad mood and doesn't really want to put that on Zev.]

Fine. Do what you want.

[It took him a bit, but finally he makes it to the apartment. He hasn't seen Bucky this upset before. He wonders exactly what could have brought this on. He has a smile on his face as he enters and come to Bucky's space.]

Now...will you tell me what's wrong? Or must I coherence it out of you?

[It gives Bucky a few minutes to cool down, but he's nowhere near okay. He's agitated. Frustrated. There's nothing he can do to make it better. Zevran steps into his space and he steps back.]

It's this place. Everyone's nice. They're all so nice.

[He turns to pace the room.]

When are they gonna show their true colors? Got to thinkin' about the people who hurt Mettaton, people that could come right through that goddamn blue gate. What about the people who hurt you? You said they were gone but we don't know that. There could be a whole set of Crows still.

How am I supposed to keep you both safe if I don't know.

I didn't know anyone hurt him.

[This is different. He isn't use to seeing Bucky like this or people being so nice to him. The things that he spoke of are normal in his world. It wasn't just the Crows that saw him as lesser.]

If any other Crows come, then they know what will happen to them if they attack me.

[They will die. Plain and simple, but the Crows hurt him because he was their property, but he enjoyed many things that normal elves didn't because of them too.]

The Crows are the least of my worries now, amor. As far as I can tell these people here are not like anywhere else. Surely they would have shown otherwise by now.

[Maybe Bucky shouldn't have said anything about it, but this is Zevran. The person he wants to spend the rest of eternity with. He trusts him.]

I don't want anyone to hurt you.

[Zevran had seen Bucky when he'd thought he'd lost him. Waking up to see a shell of the man he'd come to know. What if it had been different. What if he'd woken up to the soldier.]

I don't wanna be like this.

I didn't know that was a thing?

[ Although she's starting to wonder what's not a thing in a world full of posibilites. ]

But you're right, it's nothing we should ignore.

you didn't have to say that

but i'm happy that you did.

[He's sure having SOME kind of intense feelings about it, if he isn't typing in his usual capitals.]

I came in with a group on a ship called the Moira. Before they'd picked me up, there was an incident where some of the crew were taken by slavers. Far as I know, it was bad.

[It'd messed a lot of people up.]

I'm not saying it'll happen here, but it could. Anyone can come through the Ingress.

You deserve so much better than what happened.

I have to do what I can to make sure it doesn't happen again.

[ Talking is tiring. ]

I've heard some of the tales, but nothing of the sort. Big space ship, lots of shenanigans, some good, most bad. Apparently the hook was that getting to Tish was going to solve everyone's problems? Figures it didn't.

Yeah, that's about it. Seems like we're in the same situation now, only we've got space to spread out.
Thought making plans might help keep everyone safe.

I just got here very recently, so I don't know if there's some sort of organization going on among us. It might be good to some have some idea of what's everyone doing or something.

I don't need you to fight my battles, amor.

[He had been gone for what feels likes months. He fought evil humans and creatures and slayed beasts bigger than anything he could have imagined. He didn't need Bucky to fight for him.]

Coming back here, it's so different from home. Things that you said, it's part of life there for 'knife ears'.

Not that I don’t agree, but is there anything in particular that brought this on?

[From what Alan has seen, the locals here go through some effort to treat AI equitably, but if there's some exception, he wants to know. Especially if it's someone who's part of the crew.]

[Well that broadcast is enough to make Daisy curious as to what happened,. Clearly she missed something.]

Are people still being ignorant on the whole 'other worlds exist' thing?

this the first time you seen terminator? i feel you its rough

Not here. I've been told I'm paranoid, but my life has made me cautious. The Savrii might not want to hurt us, but someone coming through the Ingress might. What if the slavers come through and they don't know it?

Yeah. I've had a lot of free time, been thinking it over. We ran into a group willing to buy and sell people like cattle. What if they come through the Ingress here?

What's terminator?
