video

[The feed begins focused on a dark haired boy as pedestrians mill about behind him, but it's not his voice that can be heard first. The sound is noticeably more feminine than that, and likely more familiar to the Port as well.]

Of course it's necessary! Here, everyone can see you now, introduce yourself.

What are you even... what is that thing, anyway?

[apparently nobody really explained the NV to him, from the way he gestures blankly at the camera with noooo idea what's going on.]

It's just a video! It's like, it's almost like a picture, except it keeps showing you for as long as you want it to, moving and talking and stuff. It shows you to other people, too, that's why I said everyone can see you! So you should say hi, okay?

I... what... couldn't you have told me that before, idiot? I'm not interested! Shut it off, do something...!

Hey, don't call me names! Just say hi and tell them your name, I promise it isn't that hard!

I don't...! Fine. If I do this, will you stop bothering me about it?

[There's a sigh, before she moves into the view of the feed, standing next to the taller boy. Though her voice was bordering on annoyance a few seconds ago, it's not hard to spot the broad smile on her face.]

This is my friend Fakir. I guess he's just sort of shy, but he's a really nice person!

[The affection when she turns her head to look up at him is almost palpable as well.]

See! That wasn't so hard, was it? Now everyone knows who you are.

I'm not a nice pers... ugh. Believe what you want.

[he seems to just give up, rubbing his forehead. the things he puts up with for her. but he reluctantly glances up and nods shortly at the camera. that's... probably the closest thing to a hello he'll give.]

[And just as quickly as the smile had been there, a slight exasperated frown takes it's place.]

You are too! Stop saying stuff like that, jeez. [She turns her attention back to the NV for a moment.] No matter what he says, he really is nice! [And then, just like that, the feed cuts.]

On second thought, maybe I'll just tell him never to come in!

[IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S JUST SALT FLAVORED ICE CREAM AND THAT'S DISCONCERTING]

I was just kidding, you know! I think it'd be fun for us to come over there. Maybe I could show him more of the city on the way.

Might as well help his learn his way around sooner than later.

Yeah! It can't hurt, at least. Maybe he'll even make a new friend.

Hey, I bet any friend of yours is a friend of his.

[THAT MIGHT BE A LITTLE OPTIMISTIC.]

[Her mind immediately goes to Rue.]

Well, I don't know about that...

[While he is thinking only of her Port friends.]

Ah, c'mon. Everyone here who likes you would be willing to give him a chance.

[personal profile] motioned 2012-09-09 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I know that! Just, it might not go the other way all the time. I mean, he's sort of grumpy.
motioned: (of distant drumming)

[personal profile] motioned 2012-09-09 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
Like, calls everyone names and acts mean before he even knows them that well, I guess! He used to be a lot worse before we were friends, though.
pullsheavendown: (※ stretching every nerve)

[personal profile] pullsheavendown 2012-09-11 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. Really? How'd you get to be friends with him then?
motioned: (can i ignore that sound)

[personal profile] motioned 2012-09-11 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
That's... sort of a long story.

[But she trusts him enough to tell him most of it, at least, if he wants to know.]

[How does she even start.]

well we had this friend, both of us were his friend

and neither of us really agreed with the way the other treated him at first i guess

[personal profile] motioned 2012-09-13 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
buuuut then something happened to him and we didn't know where he was

so he both cared about him a lot and we decided to team up to try and find him

is that when he stopped being grumpy
motioned: (ever a surprise)

[personal profile] motioned 2012-09-13 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
no he never really stopped being grumpy he just stopped being mean

well

no i don't think he was ever mean he was trying to take care of that person the best way he knew how, even if i couldn't see it at first

either way, i owe him a lot
motioned: (dream giver¸ just around the riverbend?)
