1st Circuit - Text for Both Courts, Video-locked for Unseelie
[There's probably a better way to do this, but at least he can put out feelers and see what he's working with. Since the decimation of Caer Scima Hiro's been a little more than bitter toward the Seelie and while he doesn't want to have anything to do with any of them, he realizes that as a scientist he needs to gather as much information as possible.]
It's been a long month, hasn't it? I'm not used to any of this. Monsters? Destroying people's castles? It's weird. I was getting ready for class one day and the next I came here and then the fighting started. I think I'm going to fall really, really behind in my homework.
Makes me wonder…what do you miss most about home? I can't be the only one who really misses advanced tech (computers, video games, even the old stuff like VCRs would be okay at this point.) And I know, I know, the Station exists but it's not the same.
So, what about you guys?
[If he can figure out what people value? Maybe they can use that to their advantage, too.]
[Unseelie Locked]
[Now comes the hard part. With that out of the way the video function of the locket clicks on and it's obvious that the locket's hanging from something in front of Hiro. He's in a room at the Station, ever-recognizable blue hoodie hanging loosely on his frame but the sleeves pushed up to his elbows. More importantly than that? He looks a little nervous.]
…hi. My name is Hiro Hamada. I don't know most of you, but I hope you're listening anyway.
[He pauses and looks to the side, evidently looking at someone else who's in the room with him. Deep breath, Hiro.]
It's not a secret that we lost this battle pretty bad. That's a fact, but I think there's something we can do about it to help recover. I know there are other people that don't know how to really fight, or there are people who can only fight with weapons. What if we could do something more than that?
[Give him a second and he's holding up his hand. It looks as though he might completely freeze up but after a short moment a small fireball appears in the palm of his hand. He wants to put it out immediately, but he pauses long enough to at least look at the locket again.]
I couldn't do this when I first got here. [And the fireball vanishes.] Think about how much stronger we'd be as a court if everybody could wield a couple of spells. Even if it's not something you want to use for offense even picking up a few for defense is better than nothing. I know there're a lot of magic users here but…well, Lemina and I have been working on something pretty cool.
[He's going to lean forward and pick up what looks like a piece of paper with a class list and a list of elemental spells written on it to show the camera.]
The Guild's designed to not only teach people how to unlock their own magic ability but hone it and build up to becoming a better magician. We have a few ideas how to use it to help our side of this war. We're going to start classes soon for anybody who's even kinda curious. [A pause.] Look, I didn't even really believe in magic before I got here and knowing the little bit I learned saved me back there. It'd be really cool if you guys considered it and you can always ask Lemina or me if you have questions.
[Actually…he looks off screen toward where Lemina's sitting.] Maybe we should do that now?
[ooc: This is actually going to be open to both Seelie and Unseelie because of the mage university being started by Tzilan just outside of Redgate. Lemina's been putting up flyers around the Station and Hiro just doesn't realize it and has a very strong bias against the Seelie. You can check out more about said-Guild in the class link above, and you can sign up your character here. As an aside, Lemina will also be teaching classes at said-university on her own, but will be keeping the Guild as something separate. edit: also Lemina might pop into some threads as well!]

[He says, but what he really means is this: he misses guns. Guns on the battlefield would've made him one of the strongest guys out there, and he hadn't been. It's frustrating. He also misses bombs, and half of his skills actually being useful.]
I'm not gonna have to join your silly guild to learn from Lemina, right?
video | unseelie locked
I dunno, dude, you're going to have to ask her. But what's so bad about joining a guild?
video | unseelie locked
It shouldn't.
[So, he shrugs. Being here means he has to hide that stuff less. There's a boyish bragging about it all that he kind of enjoys, even if it's in an action movie hero kind of way.
Not that he'd ever consider himself such a thing.]
Everything. I don't do that whole thing. Guilds kinda sit badly with me. I'm a lone ranger, as cliché as it sounds.
video | unseelie locked
You're antisocial is what it is. [The way he says it though has a tinge of a strange kind of understanding to it. He's pretty used to operating alone, too, but then things changed and now here he is.] What're you gonna do when that stops working?
video | unseelie locked
And frankly, I'm not going to drag too much more onto my plate. I mean, look at you. Running a guild, building crap. When do you have time to sleep?
video | unseelie locked
[A shrug…and blatantly ignoring the point.] I'm fine. It's not a big deal, I know how to manage my time. [That's also not detailing what else he's been working on.] Besides I have to be the one to do it.
video | unseelie locked
[He's looking forward to this explanation. This'll be a good one.]
video | unseelie locked
[Hiro's making himself the poster child of the noncombatants without realizing it.] Besides, you really think I'm going to stay without learning everything I can? What happens if another battle starts without warning? I'm gonna be ready this time.

video | unseelie locked
I'm not trying to prove anything to you. [Except that's exactly what he's doing, and they both know it.] I'm not gonna run myself into the ground. How many times do I need to tell you I can handle this?
video | unseelie locked
[The fact that Hiro starts getting so animated actually calms Jason down, like he likes the reaction he's gotten.]
video | unseelie locked
Hate to break it to you, but you're not even going to get the chance to say it then. Sorry.

[Good pun, Hiro. Four for you.]

You have a complex about failing on the battle field.
Get over it.
video | unseelie locked
I'm not the only one with a complex here. [Though what the hell Jason's is, he has no idea. Not the full extent anyway.]

Why shove a neat little frame around it that people will have problems with?

And personally, for teaching bits, I'm just telling people when they can show up. If someone got there first, not my problem. [Jason's not a good teacher of anything.]
video | unseelie locked
Well, you'd be a bad teacher anyway. Helping by spreading the word is something.
video | unseelie locked
I can tell people to come to you for training, but if you take everyone I send your way and force some guild status on them, I won't be too happy.
