[the video starts with a close-up of a pair of brown eyes, his entire face coming more into view once he pulls back. his fellow offworlders are surely used to seeing people using this technology for the first time.

Ah! I'm Wei Wuxian, newly arrived with a vow to help however I can! [he holds up his hand in a promise salute.] One question, not everyone here is as shiny and cold as the one who gave me this device, right?

Oh! Speaking of unpleasant, if anyone happens to run into a tall, rigid and uptight-looking guy who also looks like he's wearing mourning clothes, could you let me know? I'll buy you a drink at the nearest bar!

[for the first time, wei wuxian's smile slowly fades, his expression turning more worried.]

Eh...there are bars here, aren't there?

Not very often, no.

[At least she could count on one hand the amount of nice boys who had said sweet things to her. Then there were the not so nice boys. But saying silly things was something Aerith had easy learned to dismiss with a laugh. And besides, everyone knew her. She was like a sister to most of the boys, and men, in her sector.

Eligible bachelors they were not!]

But you're very sweet for saying so.
