First time

[browbeater]

[when the console clicks on, it doesn't look like the guy messing with it really expected it to. He was pressing buttons, finding out what the options where. his experience with cameras is also very, very limited. He presses the button again, and it switches off and to text.]

i'm new around here. not sure who this goes out to, but can someone tell me where i can find a news paper, or a job listings page? i'd appreciate it.

[there's a long, long pause, before he decides to add something else, this time switching it to video again. He seems to have figured out the camera, though he's still giving the camera a mostly apprehensive look]

Also, who checks these things? Do they go out to the whole city?

[a sigh, a bit annoyed, whether with the situation or his lack of understanding on what's going on with this form of mass communication is anyone's guess]

I'm Mako, if there's anyone listening.

[well, it was the first time that Mako had heard anything to the contrary. So, thanks for the heads up, Pete! Literally, brand new information. So, he was going to have to spend some time figuring this out, if he wanted to not look like a complete idiot]

Thanks, pal. I had no clue about the text problem. [and... being from different worlds, it figures that most people wouldn't speak his language (though he has yet to realize how many speak English...)]

The rest, I've heard. [he's since switched to trying to find out more about the Malicant, and things that have recently happened...]
