video; un: archon
[ the video is clearly being shot from a phone is propped up on the coffee table. in it, Reno is sitting on the floor of his living room in an otherwise fairly bare-looking apartment, leaning back casually on both hands.
behind him, Thancred can be seen doing what appears to be a casual few reps of push-ups. or possibly a lot of push-ups. it's likely that Reno is aware of what Thancred is doing behind him, and Thancred is definitely aware that Reno is filming, but neither fact seems to bother either of them, and it doesn't seem like this somewhat unorthodox spectacle of physical prowess will be slowing down or stopping anytime soon. ]
Yo. [ a brief salute as a greeting. ] So we've been watchin' some monster movies lately and came up with a list of questions for those of ya who are from Earth or who might know the answers for some reason.
[ Reno lifts up one hand to tick through the questions from memory: ]
1. Where is Japan and what's the beef between Japan and America?
2A. Where's Russia and what's the beef between Russia and America? And 2B. What's a cold war?
3. What big war event happened in 1944 that would make somebody's pocketwatch stop keeping time?
4. How long is a klick?
How far. It was a measure of distance, I think.
[ — an interjection from Thancred that earns an amused eye-roll from Reno, clearly for the camera's benefit. when Reno speaks again, it's in a surprisingly accurate imitation of Thancred's accent: ]
Oh, excuse me, how far is a klick. Hey, and while we're at it, is "British" the place where they have accents like his?
[ Reno shakes his head, smirking; when he speaks again, it's back to his usual drawl. ]
...What was I saying? Oh, yeah — 5A. What's the story of the mouse and the lion? And 5B. In the story of the mouse and the lion, did the mouse and lion become friends or did the mouse kill the lion with the splinter?
6. Have any of you ever been to the moon?
[ there's a pause while he tries to remember if there's anything else. after a second, Reno turns halfway back to Thancred to ask, ] That was it, right?
It for you, mayhap. I'd still like to know what in the seven hells is a "DILF" —
[ but alas, that's one answer that Thancred is destined not to get, at least by present company, because the audio fills with the sound of Reno's laughter as a hand approaches the camera to switch off the feed. ]
[OOC: Responses may come from Thancred, Reno, or both! Threadjacking is definitely encouraged.]

audio forever;
...Ah, true. You missed both of them, I'm afraid — the white one and the red one.
[EXCEPT FOR THE PART WHERE HE WAS ONE OF THE PRISONERS IN THE MOON JAIL BUT YOU KNOW WHAT. LET'S JUST. LET'S JUST NOT PUT THAT ALL OUT ON THE NETWORK IN FRONT OF HYDAELYN AND EVERYONE.]

Although I do think I've heard mention of this one. The red one was the one that fell recently, wasn't it? The small one?
no subject
[weeps]
Mmhmm. The red one was — oof, a moment.
[Some shuffling noises can be heard, as well as the crunch of carpet, before:]
— was built to house the primal Bahamut and launched as a satellite. Its fall constituted one of our seven Calamities.
no subject
[Nothing he needs to wait for another Starlight gift for, anyhow.]
This Bahamut is--or rather was--a "dragon," was he not? What exactly is a dragon?
no subject
["What is a dragon" is such a question, indeed.]
As I heard it, they didn't arrive on the star until after it had already been sundered.
no subject
[There is as much excitement and awe in the question as there is shock. To think that there truly could be other sentient beings beyond the sea of stars...!]
Incredible!

My understanding is, that's precisely why Midgardsormr left with his unhatched brood in tow. To flee his star's imminent destruction.
