[Is it any wonder that Commander Handsome is one of the first to perfect the use of the new video equipment? After all, dramatic speeches are so much more effective when he can showcase his cheekbones to their full potential.

Except now he's keeping it short and sweet, preoccupied with other matters, clearly:]

It seems recent events have sparked an...admirable rush of civic pride. I encourage anyone who is interested to see about applying for the Scouting Corps. We can always use Rangers with your sort of passion and drive.

As for everyone else -- continue to serve Union and humanity whole-heartedly.

[A brief salute to end this...clearly-rehearsed speech, and the video flickers off.]

Yeah, they're wings on his ass.

[He snickers, even if it sounds more like a chirp in this form.]

Only my fucking brain. Those assholes are so dumb... but they managed. Their little blond friend too, had some good ideas.

That seems...extremely impractical. [But he'll make a note of it anyways. "Asswings, (question mark)".]

Mmm...he didn't apply, it seems. Interesting. Any others in your group worth investigating?

[springcleaning]

Seems like a weakling, but he's an egghead like you.

I only went with those three. The expeditions were about over by the time we go back.

[thatwasnotmyintent]

I'm unsure whether to be flattered or insulted.

Hm. Well, I'll make a note of it. We need talent and passion. Skill can be taught.

[springcleaning]

Your head does look like an egg.

Yeah. He's scrawny, but he's probably good for something.
