So, uh, my name is Billy Kaplan.

[And from the looks of it, he's sprawled out on his bed in the communal housing, camera held above him steadily. He makes a face.]

I have no idea what to say about myself. I was a student back home and I know a little magic. [He's a little tentative about that one, but-- he's not sure there's a point in keeping it secret here either.] But marketable skills? I'm not so sure about that one. I guess I need to figure something out though.

[Considering he's going to be here for a while...]

I guess I'm making this to ask what all of you plan to do here? If you have any definite plans at all, I mean.

Fortunately, I am. Or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it.

[He's still getting to know the whole motley crew, but as a whole, he's been getting some mixed impressions. They're all a little strange to a Viking displaced about two thousand years in the future.]

We already went over that a little. Stories and legends are only as truthful as the poets are, which is not very.

[Everyone always just made up details to make it sound better. He'd learned that more than once just listening to tales of his own father.]

You mean like a friend? [Cue a confused look on Ivar's face. He doesn't really do friends. It's hard to get close to someone when he's so dead-set on having a chip on his shoulder and broadcasting anger at all times.]

No one's died yet. We're doing alright.

[The standards by which he's judging things is rather low.

He smiles then, a genuine one. That's usually hard enough to get out of him on a good day. But he rarely makes friends. Most everyone but his family back home ignores him.]


Good. Friends then.
