1st Order [Video]

[notahitman]

This is Captain Lasky, I suppose it's a bit of a long shot, but if anyone here is from the UNSC Infinity check in. [Lasky isn't looking all that worried as he talks, but then he's beaten by the black Pawnchessmon near him in talking again.]

I thought we already figured out they weren't here, it's just you.

It's just to cover my bases while I'm here, because before you said anything I was also going to ask if anyone hears from someone from it to let me know.

[That makes the animated pawn just sort of shuffle some before Lasky shrugs and moves on. He's just relaxing in his room right now and the Digimon had just climbed up on his bed so it wasn't hard to see both of them.]

For the rest of you here, how man of you are over the age of eighteen? I haven't been here long and I'm just curious how many of us there are with a little more life experience behind us. We're all a little out of our element here, and I can't blame you kids for acting the way you are either, but can we try and not cause problems for one another? [Seriously, he saw some of those questions people.]

He means think before you speak.

[That's a sigh.] Yes, thank you.

I'm only 16 but do I get bonus points for saving the world a few times?

[chemistryinmotion]

... Dude, what. You're sixteen?

[changelingdude]

Sure. Birthday was last February.

Why?

[chemistryinmotion]

... I. I don't turn turn sixteen until November. You're— You're older than me, dude, that's so weird. I seriously thought you were the other Gar's age.

[changelingdude]

...dude this is so unfair! I should be taller!

Maybe I need more almonds in my diet...

[chemistryinmotion]

Well, I am also a speedster. Probably gave me an extra boost or something. I mean, do you know how much calcium and junk I intake on a daily basis?

[changelingdude]

I hear that. The bigger the animal I pick the hungrier I am after. Metabolisms can be tricky.

Now my biggest problem is adjusting to being like...half blind and deaf. Without my powers my senses aren't as sharp

[chemistryinmotion]

Dude, I hear ya. My sense of time is totally off.

[changelingdude]

You uh...you're not worried are ya?

About you know...going into combat without being meta?

[chemistryinmotion]

... Without being what now?

[ The word "meta" hasn't actually been used to describe superheroes yet whoops... ]

[changelingdude]

Meta human...like, superpowers.

[but what do you do without handy terms?!]

[chemistryinmotion]

Oh. Huh. I've never heard that term before.

[changelingdude]

Different worlds I guess. Not a huge deal.

So yeah uh, you worried?

[chemistryinmotion]

[ To be perfectly honest... ]

... Yeah, a little. I mean, I pretty much rely on my powers in combat, though I'm fairly decent at regular ole hand-to-hand. It's just my reflexes are going to be totally shot...

[changelingdude]

Me too dude.

I mean...if it's just me and some regular dude I might be ok. Robin forced is to do some hand to hand training without powers, which was totally unfair because Cyborg and Starfire have super strength!

Uh...anyway without my powers? Totally worried.

[chemistryinmotion]

Guess we'll just have to train or something and get used to it. I mean, I'm not gonna let my Digimon do all the work.

[changelingdude]

Don't suppose you know where we could get some baseball bats do you?

Because I saw this table...I think I could unscrew the legs off it. They looked thick but not very long.

[chemistryinmotion]

Actually, yeah... there's a bunch of baseball bats in the elementary school. I borrowed one just in case.

[robotfightclub]

Not sure what "life experience" has to do with behaving. There are some out there who have all the life experience in the world and I still want to rip their heads off.

[dekochan]

For your information, one of the people who was behaving so awfully on the terminals was an adult!

We all have to work together here, so that means that you're going to have to work with us kids too. You'll just have to learn to deal with it.

[renegadedriving]

[You can see the relief on her face. Thank god, another adult who seems alright in the head, and he's a soldier. Higher rank than her, too. She snaps to attention.]

Commander Shepard reporting in. I'm 36, sir, and there are a few other adults I've seen on the network or met personally, but most everyone is teenagers or children.

[video]

[grudgebow]

I'm over a thousand.

[The tone she says this in is, by and large, matter-of-fact, but there might be a hint of oneupmanship there as well.]

video

[lifescratched]

I am twenty-five. [Even if all that frowning makes him look a lot older, sometimes.]

I wonder why so many children are chosen to be brought here...

voice

[gluecklichundtreu]

::The voice sounds rather young -like a preteen girl- and a bit hesitant, as though she's reluctant to even identify herself this much.::

I doubt you would believe it if you met me in person, but I'm over two hundred years old.

[betrayalcutsdeep]

I think I might be starting to notice a pattern among the adults here. I'm Commander Jin Uzuki, 35.

[chemistryinmotion]

[With a salute:]

Sixteen this November, sir.

[handsoffmysprite]

Eighteen? What kind of age is that?
