[handset | video] one love, one life (backdated to 3/5 or so)

[The video flips on to show Erskine, gorgeous as always, and actually not looking dog-tired for once! In fact, he's smiling. This is possibly the happiest Erskine has looked on the network while sober.

...which probably has to do with the attractive redhead hovering in the background. Those who've seen Erskine's echo stone will recognize Hopeless. Those who haven't might recognize the man Erskine's been attached at the hip to for the last couple of weeks.]

Right, hello everyone. So, Hopeless had a question--

[The redhead in the background scoffs gently.]

Alright, we had a question. How old are all you Foreigners out there? We're interested in age demographics. You can be vague if you like, and you don't have to answer of course.

And in the spirit of sharing, I... missed my last birthday. It was in February. Which I suppose makes me 409 now.

Physically, yes.

Although mentally I was still able to perceive the physical world through transference to a Warframe.

Being under for so long definitely has an impact, however. And an indeterminate portion of that was also spent with my warframe in cryostasis as well.

[The same thoughtful expression persists while she talks]

...okay this might be a stupid question, and forgive me if I've already asked you this, but. What exactly is a 'warframe'?

[ten_zero]

I don't believe you've asked- I think I've only told a handful of people here.

A warframe is a techno-organic 'suit' is maybe the most intuitive way to explain it, although we don't wear them. [ Well, they didn't use to. ] We connect to them through an energy called Transference that's made possible through our connection to the Void.

As you've probably gathered from the name, their purpose tends to be rather singular.
