(VIDEO | ACTION)
( ACTION | BAY AREA )
[Waking.
It's a very unusual feeling. Seth looks down at his hand and rotates it with a curious glint reflecting in his pale yellow eyes. This is very new. New can be many things and as Seth drops into the pool of water he tries to figure out what sort of new this was. Good new? Usual new? Shocking new? He doesn't think it's bad but the word to describe his current situation escapes him.
With surprising calm he walks towards the video and eyes the pamphlets. He empties the box he'd been given into the pockets of his jacket before playing with the phone. He knows about phones, he's watched the world develop over time, but this is the first time he's gotten to use one.
He likes it.
Seth chooses to stand at the mouth of the bay, playing with his new phone and watching those who walk by. He likes watching. You can learn a lot by watching and he's interested in learning. Anyone walking by will see a man standing just shy of six feet with white hair, a lip ring and overly form attire.]
( VIDEO | BAY AREA )
[Seth flicks on the video when he decides that he's done playing with his new phone. Pale yellow eyes stare at the screen, complimented by messy white hair and a smirk on his lips. The bay is visible behind him but not much more.]
Hey all. [It feels like the best way to address the masses.] Name's Seth and it looks like I'm your new neighbor. One of them anyway.
[His tongue flicks along his bottom lip, making his lip ring glint noticeably.] There are a lot of questions out there. I'm sure I'll learn. Any tips for the new guy would be great. If not, what do you like doing around here? How you holding up? I'm sure some of you are doing better than others.
[He's curious by nature.]

Re: Video
Aheh, it seems so. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but...
[And now he comes to the most disquieting part of Genessia: the dolls.]
Most of the people you find populating the...population, aren't quite up to snuff, existentially speaking. They haven't got souls; aren't exactly real. I mean, they're solid enough. Cut one and it'll bleed. The lone exceptions are us, the pendant-bearers, and we're outnumbered. As though the world were so desperate for authenticity--so tired of playing with dolls, that it craved reality wherever in the universe it could find it.

That's alarming.
And everyone knows this?
Re: Video
The informed do; hopefully that's most of us. We don't particularly act like we do, owing, perhaps to sentimentality or philosophical imprecision. Suppose that's for the best either way. Goodness knows that being stranded amidst complete strangers encourages callousness enough on its own. Soullessness on top of all that might overflow the measure. It's a...very odd thing, behaviorally speaking. My world could treat animals well enough. But to be surrounded by that which looks and acts like men while having the emptiness of a beast is...
[He clears his throat. No need to disturb the newbies this much.]
Well, you know what I'm driving at. So you couldn't feel it either, at first?
[Ted's a little ashamed his spiritual senses couldn't pick up on that dreadful fact when he first arrived. He's not especially mystical, but it seemed, to him, like something anyone with a soul ought to intuit. There's some comfort in knowing that others are just as blindsided as he was.]
Video
[Seth rolls his shoulders, keeping his thoughts to himself.]
Thanks for the heads up though. I think I'm going to do some snooping of my own.
Re: Video
Oh, you're very welcome. Should you ever need aid, I'm but a phone call away. Go with the Mercy!
