[The angle looks like it's being adjusted several times. Not-so-quietly-mumbled groaning sounds can be heard before it focuses on a very displeased looking man in his later twenties.]

Ugh what kind of crap cellphone is this?! It doesn't even get reception or take good selfies! I can't even with any of this--!

[Apparently, he's so upset he ends it there. A few minutes later, maybe ten, he turns on the video again. He isn't whining yet, but he still looks distressed. Understandable, right?]

Look, I didn't mean to get all bitchy, it's just, this has been a really hard day for me, I woke up in a gross pod and I can't even wash away all the Do Not Want I had with that. And I-- I'm like trying to keep it together, but... [Here come the watering eyes. He bites his lip, oh god is he embarrassed.] I ruined my best pair of pants, and they're not even good pants, and then I saw that hologram and she had perfect shoes and perfect hair and I'm here with this fake monopoly money and ugly ass necklace. Where did you even get this thing from? [He holds up his pendant, utterly disgusted.] The dollar store? I don't even know why I'm trying! I'm probably just being watched by some creepy stalker or psycho-killer. Ew much? But if somehow anyone I know does see this...

Just don't get all rude and self-righteous and I-told-you-so-with me! It's like, really obnoxious and I don't need to listen to it! [He rolls his eyes dramatically, ending the video for now. A few minutes later:]

Chalking that up to a temporary loss of judgment from waking up from a waterlogged coffin. #Wakingupinanotherworld #Notokwiththis #Yourphonessuck #Missingmyfriends :(

Yes, Major, I'm actively trying to ruin your life by giving you a ride in my Camaro.

[ At least she knows he's on a brain. She doesn't know how he's going to handle getting people to take him seriously after this. ]

You're in another world, Major. No mercenary practice. And when did you become a mercenary? [ HER MEMORIES DONT GO THAT FAR WHOOPS ]

...I might kind of want a ride in your Camaro. That they somehow have on another world.

What do you mean when? Do you not-- do you just not pay attention? You know how important this is to me!

Good. Then sit back, relaaaax, and enjoy the ride. It isn't every day you end up in another universe, you deserve this.

[ Both eyebrows quirk up. Cool your jets Major what brain are you even on. ]

I actually don't. I've been here longer than you, my memories are probably a little off from yours timeline-wise.

How can I relax?

Whatever. Do you want to know or not because I started mercenary training and they're like all the best friends I could have! Besides my other friends.

That's why we're taking you to the spa.

Better be besides your other friends, your other friends are the best. [ A+ even. ] I guess if you're a zombie it's not like it's as dangerous. [ And miss not-actually-police over here can't really talk. She'll still worry about him though. ] At Fillmore-Graves?
