text / audio | un: newt
Alright, let's not be total wallflowers at prom here, if we're going to be stuck together for the foreseeable future, I think it's only right that we (read: I) start getting to know all of my fellow space cadets. If we're ACTUALLY in space and this isn't some humongous simulation. You guys saw how easy it was for this place to manufacture a hyper-realistic simulation earlier, right? Yikes, big yikes.
But if we ARE in space and we're going to be traveling around, that's actually kind of AWESOME.
No offense to anyone who didn't want to actually be here of course, but you're nuts if you're not a LITTLE curious about the vast expanse of outer space. C'mon. OUTER SPACE! How incredible is that? And here I thought me coming face to face with aliens back home was INCREDIBLE, now we've got ACTUAL OUTER SPACE??? Pinch me I'm in a simulation. LOL.
Sorry I'm rambling, my name's Newt. Dr. Newton Geiszler, but but that sounds so much more boring and overcomplicated than 'Newt', so just stick with that. Worked as a xenobiologist on earth (is there multiple earths or what??? a lot of you are crazy unfamiliar with Kaiju, which is wild to me), helped giant robots fight aliens, the usual. Likes are rock music, playing instruments, tattoos, science and tech, dislikes are bossy pushovers who complain about those things.
Speaking of which, my really good pal from home's name is Hermann Gottlieb, and you should call him Herm to make him REALLY feel at home. :)
It's nice to meet you guys on the NEWTwork. ;P

—can I just abruptly switch to an audio function?
[A pause, and then an excitable:]
Holy shit, how awesome is that?! This is amazing; we've made some pretty monumental gains in technology back home, but we're still working on finessing the finer aspects of neuralogically connecting to networks like these for the general population. I'd love to take one of these apart sometime and see what makes them tick. Good to have an idea of what to expect, in case we need modifications or repairs done at any point.
Anyway. Uh. Hey!
... This whole voices-in-your-head thing can't be good for my train of thought, but geronimo, right?
[If anyone listens beyond that, they may catch the accidental thought-to-audio that follows:]
Wha — oh, dammit.
I sure hope this is the last nosebleed, because I would rather not worry about having accidental brain damage from drifting with aliens.

But thanks for the hope, just in case.
[A pause.]
What's mana, exactly? Are we talking — like... spiritual life force energy?
[Some places back home definitely have that in their culture, anyway.]
no subject
Flynn doesn't say any of that, though, just smiles softly. ]
I'm not very involved in the specifics. You'd have to ask our resident researcher, Rita, and I'm afraid she's not here. As far as I understand it, our world is made of aer, and we used aer directly through devices called blastia for... well, centuries. Millenia, maybe. But blastia usage was... eventually going to kill the planet. Rita figured out a way to use spirits to convert aer into mana, which is... well. More stable?
[ Flynn snorts at himself. ]
That probably wasn't a very good explanation, but that's why I'm a knight and not a blastia researcher. My friend Yuri might be able to explain it a little better, if you're interested. He was directly involved in the plan to convert aer into mana.
no subject
[He smiles, though, a little amused.]
A knight, huh? We've got your kind, too. Jaeger pilots. Don't suppose you guys have giant robots to drive around back home?
no subject
The one we had was a weapon, and one we spent a lot of effort disabling. Unfortunately not before it nearly blasted my home to pieces.
no subject
[What is he supposed to say right now? That sounds so shitty. That's so shitty, but Newton's so bad at filtering his brain to his mouth in the right way, and he hesitates, because he's probably gonna phrase this stupidly-]
That sucks, dude.
[NAAAILED IT]
Who the hell was trying to blast your home to pieces?
