[ The video starts with one of Jim's usual smiles. For those who recognize the location, he's sitting at his desk at the Perimeter Guard. ]

So, after some rocky couple of months, it looks like we're settling in for a quieter month. I don't know about you, but I'm definitely not complaining. Everyone should take the opportunity to relax a little and have some fun, but please be careful. Keep in mind that things can stop being peaceful and safe pretty fast.

Building on that thought, I'd like to reinforce we are always accepting new members at the Perimeter Guard. Can't have too many of us. Also, if you can pilot ships, shuttles or airplanes, I'm always looking for more members for the aerial unit, more specifically.

If anyone's curiosity is piqued, feel free to drop by and ask for Captain James T. Kirk. I'll be happy to show you around.

[ And he leans in as though he's turning off the camera...

(( BLOCKED FROM @FRANKENSTEIN ))

... but instead he just fiddles with a couple of settings before going on to add. ]

I was also wondering if anyone here could teach me how to waltz? Or any other similar dance, really. Something nice and romantic. [ A nod. ] Thanks.

[ And now he's done. ]

((ooc: WHOOPS FORGOT TO ADD. If you want your character to join the aerial unit (they can still keep other jobs or remain in other branches of the perimeter guard in case you're wondering) please JOIN HERE! Thank you! ♥))

The waltz, hmm?

Are you recruiting people to fly or people to dance? I thought you knew how to do at least one already.

[he knows it's both, but listen. this is teasing payback. which one does he mean?? it's a mystery.]

I can waltz, but I'm rusty.

I'll help you if you're in a bind but... consider me your last option.

I am programmed in all forms of dance. If that's helpful.

Waltz, huh?

Whatcha planning?

[As it happens, Breq's response comes from near the Perimeter Guard barracks, though not near any ships.]

I'm working with the surveyors for now, but I know how to pilot shuttles. If you're in need of a reserve pilot, I can step in when I'm not required elsewhere.

A waltz? When you have a pass to my club? I'm offended.

[After everything that's happened recently, since his arrival, as loathe as he is to throw himself into someone else's war, he's quickly beginning to realize it's his, too. He's a competent fighter and has abilities he shouldn't be keeping to himself. And he's a pretty good scout, too, if he needs to be.]

I can fly a few things, mon ami, an' hold my own if I need to.

I know how the waltz and most of the other Earth ballroom dance steps.

I had to teach my siblings so I should be able to teach others.

I could teach you how to waltz.

Provided it's kept between us.

I've been meaning to ask this. Things have been a bit busy lately.

[That's putting it lightly.]

How far out have you gone?

I take it the perimeter guard keep watch over the wilderness beyond the city?[Yeah, Thor's interested.]
