video; un: rita.farr β€” aka SUPERHERO CODENAME ASSIGNMENTS

[ of course, rita sets up a visual because the starlet always wants to be seen (except when she doesn't). at the present time, she seems rather enthusiastic like she's fighting a proud grin, one that suggests she's ready to give herself a pat on the back at any moment. ]

Good evening, everyone! For those who don't know me, I am Rita Farr, your Team Morale Coordinator.

[ wait, who assigned her that position? ]

As you all well know, we have been joining mission after mission with the intention of collecting orbs to protect the world and save towns from devastation. In a way, you might say we're ... space-travelling superheroes!

And as any superhero would tell you, it's very important to have codenames for our mission. Obviously, we often obtain our very own undercover civilian names. But in the line of duty, when we're in the heat of the fight, we should just as well have assigned titles to continue preserving our identities.

As the Ximilia's Team Morale Coordinator β€” [ again, who voted her into that position? ] I took it upon myself to select carefully crafted codenames for each and every one of you.

[ she then holds up a sheet of paper, featuring a list of all of the orbers, each with another name printed beside them. ]

You will find this list posted in the Mess Hall. Please take a moment at your best convenience to study the list and memorize each of the names listed for future use. Though I worked very hard to select them β€” [ she clears her throat, brushing her hair back. ] I suppose that if you have any issue with the name chosen for you, we can discuss making possible changes. Though I don't see why anyone would want to.

( please note that none of the above is to be taken seriously and is in good fun! though rita very much likes to believe she has team leader qualifications and is entirely in her right to make assignments. but she's very bad at selecting names so if some of it seems nonsensical, it's on brand. she went by what she knows or assumes or whatever she likes. )

You've never seen me in a lab manned by two people after budget cuts in the last few weeks of the apocalypse.

When I see that, I'd be happy to revise my opinion.

You're just buttering me up!
it's working, like, a lot, can't even lie.
I think that all matches you way more than me, though. Personally.

Like theatre, I take it.

[ He supposes that's something like Enbarr, if only because the Mittlefrank Opera Company calls that affluent city home.

Fortunately, he's getting accustomed to bridging these gaps too. Othere reach for common meaning, and he thinks it proper to do the same. ]


Sounds like we sing the same tune then... Guessing these hero names have that consideration in mind as well? I've another moniker that might fit the bill. Wouldn't mean anything to anyone here but Dimitri, if even him.

[A pause before he just-]

Thank you.

Don't worry about it.

[ Dimitri's come running to his aid, so it's not like it's not even. ]

[ ... oh. in buttering up rita with flattery, she hadn't considered the fallout. somewhere aboard the ximilia, an ominous chill rakes its nails over alina's spine. ]

what sort of matching costumes?
like ... uniforms?

[personal profile] locumstudentesquire 2023-03-04 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
It's just not really something I'm interested in doing, except as the occasional bit of sport. Where we come from, the average person doesn't really have much reason to wield a sword on a day to day basis. It's not like Alydhion was, where there were monsters and bandits lurking around every corner... Conflicts are ideally solved with words, not weapons.

[He's aware he's probably over-explaining this, but, Finn's frustration has him feeling both apologetic and also, a bit on the defensive.]

If you'd like to call me Adonis in the field, I assure you I will answer

Uh, from Ryunosuke, he told me all about your rival gang. The Bobbies?

[ Admittedly, not a great name for a gang, but he wasn’t trying to judge the naming conventions of other people’s worlds.]

Blasphemy, pizza is the best thing.

Yeah, yeah, you have biceps. I’ve got biceps too, and more actual guns.
[Still, he knows when he’s beaten, so it’s really just a token effort when he wheedles:] Come on, I’ll owe you a huge favor.
shishkabob: (i was born for this;)

[personal profile] shishkabob 2023-03-04 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
Is that so bad? Plus I don’t run the risk of getting sued into oblivion.

[He has some Italian blood inside him, it’s practically the same thing as being made of pizzas.

He plants the tip of the sword on the ground, leans on the hilt.]
What do you want me to do to prove it’s real, stab myself with it? [Because he actually will do it if dared. It wouldn’t even be the first time, he has been impaled so many times by now it barely even registers anymore.]

[For a second, he's prepared to agree... until he remembers that he's 43 and, perhaps, not quite so hip anymore? πŸ˜”]

I'll leave that to Naruhodo and Asogi. Anything I teach you might be a few years out of date...

They're clever, really! [The... ones he gets, anyway, what the hell is a Pizza Hut?] And when you put it that way, I do see the value. Perhaps they'll catch on with the rest of the crew in time.

Either way, I'd be truly grateful if you did change mine. [he can't take any of this daddy stuff anymore rita PLEASE] It's, erm, already drawing. Notice. As you might've seen.

[Ahem.]

why not? they're cool!

[personal profile] heroooic 2023-03-04 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Words not weapons. The thought felt foreign, but also... well, it had been on his mind a bit lately. Still, teen embarrassment overrode that moment of reflection. Sorry, Ryunosuke.]

But--wha, then--then why does Kazuma carry one!?

[ andy lives to indulge. ]

Antigone was always my favorite. [ she'll have to tell rita all about the original performances sometime. there are a lot of things she thinks the greeks are overrated about, their mythology included, but damn if they didn't go off with theatre. andy will allow them that. ]

I'm into it. Solid reasoning all around. As a bonus for your logic, I do also know how to weave. [ war, wits, and handicrafts, nice job rita! ]

Well, if there's something this post has taught me it's that some people feel differently about code names than others.

And we get them different ways.

I reclaimed mine. She might not want to.
