deusexmechanic[Video clicks on, and there's Harper! He's kicked back in a big, sci-fi seat and reading off a thin sheet of what looks like acetate paper, he jabs a finger at the sheet, there's a computery bleeping blooping sound, and the black print on the page shifts and rearranges. Harper straightens up, clears his throat, and reads from the sheet:]
Attention all ladies, gentlemen, intersexed, genderless and hermaphroditic life forms of the boundless universes. [He glances up from the sheet and plants a hand on his heart, shooting the camera a smile.] Allow me to introduce myself: Seamus Zelazny Harper. First Engineer of the Andromeda Ascendant under Captain Dylan Hunt, and official diplomatic ambassador of the New Systems Commonwealth.
[Harper clears his throat slightly, then adds under his breath:]
For now.
[For those who know him... Harper actually looks pretty good. He looks about five years younger than he did when he left. For those who don't know him, he's a tiny little man with spiky blond hair wearing a Hawaiian shirt, and looks absolutely nothing like a diplomatic ambassador should look. Around his neck, there's what futuristic Doctors (and Tyr) might recognize as an inhalator. Introduction given, he tosses the sheet over his shoulder, and leans forward to the camera, inquisitively.]
Hey, so, I don't suppose anyone here represents a nation state, or a planet, or... I don't know, a secret club? We're not a very picky Commonwealth, but we have some real bitchin' firepower behind us.

no subject
Date: 2011-03-06 07:23 pm (UTC)The one and only. And hey, now that you know my name, maybe you could tell me yours... over drinks.</>
no subject
Date: 2011-03-06 07:29 pm (UTC)All right.
no subject
Date: 2011-03-06 07:39 pm (UTC)Really? Score! Well, hey is there a bar here, or something? Or... I mean, you could come over here, but it's not really very classy... could I meet you somewhere?

He should probably actually ask these things rather than stare at his journal like a rock that he wants to bash against a counter.]
Seamus Zelazny Harper? Your part of Dylan Hunt's new crew? [He did survive then?]

Date: 2011-03-06 07:30 pm (UTC)[Hey, you look kinda familiar though...]
You're Rhade, right? From Tarazed?
no subject
Date: 2011-03-06 07:34 pm (UTC)I'm- [Hrrm] A little confused. I don't know who you are. Captain Hunt established a New Systems Commonwealth after the fall of the old one?
I'm Rhade. I'm not from Tarazed.
no subject
Date: 2011-03-06 07:52 pm (UTC)Well now I'm a little confused, because see, the Rhade I met in Tarazed? He looked a hell of a lot like you. But he was Rhade Two point oh, ya know? Had that whole Uber genetic reincarnation thing going on.
So we couldn't really hold it against him the first Rhade - Rhade Classic, if you will - betrayed his Captain, his Commonwealth, and his best friend, took part of the best orchestrated piece of back stabbing in history, and plunged the universe into three hundred years of the long night.
[AKA: I can and will hold that against you.]
But yeah. Now, we are trying to establish a New Systems Commonwealth. We got six worlds on the charter so far.

no subject
Date: 2011-03-06 07:35 pm (UTC)Why thank you, it's been carefully cultivated from decades of advanced intelligence and social rejection!
Anyway, it's nice to meet you, Brock!

[And he's too vain to shave it off :c]

I'm guessing that's not some kind of weird Wayist rhetorical question?

You don't remember us at all, do you?
no subject
Date: 2011-03-07 07:43 pm (UTC)Sorry. And believe me, it is killing me to see a face as beautiful as yours and not be able to put a name to it.
no subject
Date: 2011-03-07 08:20 pm (UTC)You've been here before -- don't need me to tell you that, plenty others have been happy to let you know. It'll either come back to you or it won't. It's just something this place does sometimes.
