[ Is this video being recorded from a comm that's being held upside down? Or is it coming from someone holding it the right way up while they hang upside down? Who knows.

(Careful observation of the background will suggest the latter, for those so inclined. And that it's being recorded from the training room.)

So. Upside-down young man with mismatched eyes, blue hair, and fuzzy cat ears. Normal day on the rig, yes? ]

Hi there! Ranulf, new, let's get the uninteresting part out of the way and get to the even less interesting part -

Does anyone happen to have sewing supplies I can beg off you? Are we actually trusted with sharp objects like needles? I'll go ripping holes in my clothes if I have to, but - you know. I'd like to make this look at least a little bit civilized.

[ He has definitely already ripped a tailhole in his jumpsuit. ]

Life’s short and wide. You can make room for being a rage wad if you try. So, thanks man. For not being a dick about it.

[ Robbie shrugs a little. ]

So you’re a laguz? I’ve been trying not to ask. I figure it’s like asking somebody’s weight.

Your discretion is appreciated! But I don't mind explaining. Can't help not knowing what you've never heard, right?

So, yes, I'm laguz - Beast Tribe laguz, to be specific. There are birds and dragons, but they're their own nations.

What sort of understanding Utopia are you from? Where I’m from, blaming people for not knowing something or not being something is the national pastime.

Beast Tribe sounds too 90s badass to be real. That means nothing to you, but trust me. There is a guy named Brett with a thorny armband tattoo and frosted tips who forced everyone to call the tug of war team “Beast Tribe” and yelled it out at random intervals. I just had to get that off my chest.

So - different species, different nations? Or it divided on deity species or just how everyone identifies?

Understanding utopia? Ha, if only. I'm, ah, considered to be ridiculously easygoing for one of my kind.

I don't actually think too hard on the species thing, though? We're all laguz, but I don't think I've ever heard of interbreeding between the tribes. Maybe it's possible? Maybe it isn't? A question for the ages. But I mean - we change into different things and have the different parts, the birds have wings instead of a tail and all that, so.
