001 || VIDEO || PRE-EVENT

[obstinates]

[You probably hear this extranet post way before you see it if you're anywhere near Naruto's position. The video feed pops up, and the view is enough to make you seasick since Naruto is flailing his omni-tool around. There's a few flashes of the blond before he points the omni-tool at a hanar nearby. Then you hear Naruto's voice.]

WHAT IS THAT?

HOW DOES THIS OCTOPUS GUY TALK TO ME WITHOUT A MOUTH?

WHY ISN'T HE IN WATER?

IS HE EVEN A HE?

[The hanar approaches, speaking in that hanar-y way: This one would be happy to help you become accustomed to your new surroundings.]

[Naruto is having none of that. There may be a totally manly shriek as the view goes all "Blair Witch Project" and Naruto takes off down the hall before the feed is cut.]

In the past 109 years they haven't moved. I'm positive.

Re: [video]

... Wait, what? 109 years?

Re: [video]

[dowhatittakes]

Yes, and so you know I'm young for an asari.

Re: [video]

[obstinates]

Wait, you're THAT old?

... You're not wrinkly or anything.

Re: [video]

[dowhatittakes]

My people can easily live to a thousand, I'm relatively young for an asari.

[She's not touching the wrinkly comment with a 10 foot pole, thank you very much.]

Whoaaaaaaa, really? How's that work? Sounds like a special jutsu.

Re: [video]

[dowhatittakes]

We just live that long, some of us have been known to live longer than a thousand. It's simply biology.

Re: [video]

[obstinates]

Geez, that's... wow. That's a really long time. What do you do when you're bored?

Re: [video]

[dowhatittakes]

I read mostly, sometimes do research. Not many reach to be a thousand, most die by the age of two hundred or so, depending on if a war breaks out or not.

Re: [video]

[obstinates]

A war, huh. There's war even in space...

Re: [video]

[dowhatittakes]

Yes, this war is bigger than I suppose most people would understand. If we lose then all life as we know it is eradicated.

Re: [video]

[obstinates]

Maybe I can do somethin' about that before I head back home.

Re: [video]

[dowhatittakes]

Perhaps, but it seems that the station we're on is cut off from the rest of the galaxy. I'm not sure how much of a difference could be made at this point.
