[here, have a video. It's a smiling, pleasant-looking man in his mid thirties. He has the calm air of someone who has practiced saying this into the camera a few times.]

Hello, everyone. My name is Jarod DiCaprio, and I've recently taken post on board this ship along with a few new wardens. I'll begin serving on board staring just about---[he looks at his watch]---now. That's a good time to start, I think.

I look forward to meeting everyone, and I hope to hear from you soon.

And confident. That's very important to have on Earth.

[cantblameagirl]

So I've noticed!

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Have you met a lot of...Earthlings?

[cantblameagirl]

Oh, I've been living on Earth for quite some time, now.

Well, before coming here.

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Do you like it? Earth?

[cantblameagirl]

Yes. I especially like the pedicures.

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Pedicures?

[cantblameagirl]

They're wonderful.

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Oh!

[nodding, as he's going to have to look this up at some point] Pedicures.

[cantblameagirl]

I heard there was a spa here. Maybe they'll do pedicures. It's apparently a necessity to integrate into Earth society.

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Really? I've never heard of them before. Tending one's feet, I assume.

[cantblameagirl]

You're certain you're from Earth?

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Sometimes it feels like I grew up on another planet.

[cantblameagirl]

Oh?
