Ah, to be young and alive! Breathe in the air, enjoy the scenery, get to know the people...

Let me tell you a little philosophy...

[The young man in the video — he's such a character in hair alone (what on earth is going on with it) — sits in his rented hospital wheelchair in his simple apartment space on floor 14 (needs a little work, he thinks, not nearly enough reading material or flashy bits). In one hand, he's got some silly romance novel that's clearly forgotten, and he looks a bit weary, a bit hollowed out from battles not yet mentioned, but he's clearly so very jazzed about the opportunity to be here in Riverview. After all, he'd thought he'd be a dead man, and though he's hardly out of the woods entirely, he has more time to keep going! More time to really go the extra mile -- literally! Ahahahaha!

Oh, yes, the philosophy. Ehem.

At this point, his mouth is moving a mile a minute.]

That's the fun of travel, and there's no better travel than hopping worlds; think about it...! Of all the universes and all the galaxies, you were extended a hand to this place — a one in a trillion chance, perhaps more, to be among the stars! Or perhaps to shoot across time and space like one...! More time to chase after longevity, to meet records, to dash down the sin of sloth. We all have the right to free will! Free will to fall in love, to learn and grow and develop new and interesting hobbies and ideas and concepts of what it is to be our own individual self; individuality is key! [He's balancing on one wheelchair wheel, spinning in a circle. Stop him. STOP HIM.] But what's the point of all that if you're too slow to get around to it, huh?! Don't let yourself hold you back!! If you want something, reach for it, so you know what that means—?!

[He stops. Drops back onto all his wheels, so tickled.]

Anyone interested in wheelchair racing?

[Sometimes (most times) he just can't help himself.]

[whoa now. who is this dude? he's... he's got a lot of charisma, that's for sure!]

I won't let myself hold me back! [Osomatsu's fired up thanks to you!]

I'll race with you! [you don't even have a wheelchair, Osomatsu]

Not everyone has a wheelchair.

[Keith had to point out the obvious here.]

[ was going to point out the lack of wheelchairs for everyone, but keith seems to have beat him to it. so instead, he opens and closes his mouth a bit and then- ]

It is pretty lucky I ended up here. My brother is here too, and I don't know what I'd do without him. [ a pause ] You're really excited about being here, aren't you?

...

Wheelchair racing...

[You're getting one hell of an unimpressed look from this rabbity-looking guy. a scoff, a light smirk. The works.]

What are you, 12?

Actually, I've done the whole shooting across time and space thing, like, tons of times. I mean, it's cool every time, but still.

Sick moves though, dude!

I do not think that is such a good idea, given how you seem to be recovering.

Regardless, hello and welcome to Riverview. I am Draco Malfoy, the Community Ambassador. If you need any help with employment opportunities and settling in, please let me know.

[Alright, this person is clearly rambling and a madman, so Ivar's not going to respond at all, but then the last sentence makes him perk up.]

Did you say wheelchair racing?

[Hey, Ivar's already in one permanently, so he's already good to go.]

_{[ Is this how people feel when he talks to them? Karamatsu can only look at the feed and barely keep up what this guy is saying, but suddenly, he stops and he's all full of vigor. Karamatsu feels thrilled and pumped up over that speech, but he's trying not to show his enthusiasm. Instead, he bares his teeth from behind his lips and brushes a wrinkle free from his shoulder. ]}

Heh, wheelchair racing.. that isn't cool.
