006- Accidental Broadcast [video]

[renegadedriving]

[Today's broadcast is brought to you by Shepard's D-Terminal... But she's not on the screen. Nor is Monodramon. Instead, it's shaky footage taken from eye level, and it very rapidly becomes apparent that it's battle footage. From Shepard's helmet.]

[Of the first 7 and a half minutes of this. (Spoilers for the end of Mass Effect 2! Those who don't want to watch all 7 minutes can get the gist from the first thirty seconds and a quick glance at 6:10.)]

[Why? Well. Shepard figured out how to transfer files from her helmet's eyepiece to her D-Terminal, and determined that clip dangerously classified and disturbing enough to flat up delete, rather than risk anyone stumbling upon it.]

[And Monodramon has just broadcast it to the entire network by mistake.]

[Joshua's contemt to allow the recording to merely be background noise, until a certain word is mentioned. That gets his attention, and he watches - taking in the alien surroundings, the human/reaper hybrid, and the violence with a cold stare. He's most interested in the Harbringer of course, and his head tilts slightly at his words. And he appears to be disinterested in the rest. It's hardly as if humans with the sentiment of Cerberus are a new thing. Even if the setting's different, humans are humans.]

...My, my. You're just as tough as you act.
Nice hardware, by the way.

[renegadedriving]

[Well. This is certainly the weirdest reply yet.]

Thank... you?

[. . .]

What the hell goes on in your world that you're this calm about this?

[whitefeather]

Hmmm..? Oh, Nothing like that. I'm a couple thousand years behind you, it looks like. Humanity for me? We've barely hit Earth's moon.

Anyway, nice guns.

[renegadedriving]

[. . . What's wrong with this kid.]

That's only a couple hundred, actually.

aaaand filtered ♥

So Neku's told you about our time, for you to know that. How forward of him.

[Oh, he sees that look. And he tilts his head, resting a cheek on his hand. Normally, he'd end things right there - but he's interested in this. Humanity will always be a point of his utmost concern and curiosity, whether in Shibuya or otherwise - the 21st century or the 201st. Whether the earth and he are still around or not.

...even though things look beyond bleak for humanity at her time.]

Interesting. If the guns, spaceships and cute suits are of human origin.
... What happened to your earth anyway?

[renegadedriving]

He's a friend and time periods aren't really carefully defended on the network anyways.

[She frowns a little.]

Nothing's wrong with earth. We've just colonized other worlds.

[whitefeather]

[hmm. Well, that's something, at the very least. He only nods at the friend thing. That's Neku's business after all, and it's not like his choice in friends has ever interested him. Not really. His growths been ascertained a while ago with the last game.

Now he's content to leave well enough alone. Exactly as he did to his Neku, from his time. ]

Good to know. Well, thanks for the entertainment.

[he's referring to the fact humans haven't appeared to have destroyed the earth, and of course the video in regard to entertainment. ]

Ta-ta, Commander.
