[ LOCKED TO SUTOKU ALLIANCE ] video; un: rider
[ it takes ryouma a little bit to get around to this, but eventually(!!) he appears, filming a video from what appears to be... outside a fancy-looking starbucks? well, they're everywhere, after all! even in hell! maybe they're also paying him for the product placement? in any case, it's a nice day, and he's outside with his iced coffee and with sunglasses on you can't tell how tired he might be! coffee and a cigarette is the meal of champions when you have a lot of stress in your life. ]
Hello, everyone! I thought it'd be a good time to welcome in all our newest Alliance Lost Souls!
[ yes, he's waving! ]
I'm Sakamoto Ryouma — but just Ryouma is fine! — and a lot of people around here know I'm a Lieutenant and a main point of contact for any business with the Alliance. If you need anything, you can always come to me, and I'll at least try and help you find what you're looking for.
That being said, you've got plenty of good people around here you can look to also! The rest of you aren't off the hook~!
My newest co-Lieutenant is Matoba Seiji. [ so feel free to bother him now too, haha! ] Emily Dyer will be acting as my second, and if you don't already know where the clinic is, you should familiarise yourself and help out a little!
You can also find your other seniors — Kim Kitsuragi, Yuri Leclerc, Xingqiu, Artemy Burakh, Cloud Strife, and Ydris — if you need anything!
[ enjoy the new responsibility?? this is also live video and not text, so there is a strong possibility that ryouma has butchered several of these names in his accent. the good news is that he also holds up a list of the names written out because he knows himself.
now that that's out of the way, he can move along to some useful information before he wraps this thing up. his coffee's melting, and he's sitting when he probably has three other places he could be... ]
You represent the Sutoku Alliance now, so keep that in mind! We don't really have much of a dress code or anything, but you should still get one of these pins, so people know what crew you're with.
[ he taps the pin on his jacket with the kanji for sutoku. aren't you relieved that the naval uniform isn't standard-issue attire? now everyone knows why he's rated four stars for COOLER HAT on EMBER. ]
We have 'em at Konoha and at plenty of other places, too, so just ask!
We're gonna have a get-together officially soon enough, but this is a good opportunity to get to know each other ahead of time! My advice to all of you is to learn as much as possible about this place and the people who live here, your fellow Lost Souls in the other factions included! Find something that interests you and dig right in! Always be paying attention because it's all in what you know.
[ so go be nosy and get the good gossip!! ]
I'm excited to say there will be a lotta interesting things going on around here soon enough, so I'll be counting on you all to do your best! You have a week to settle in and get comfortable before we'll be putting you to work, so don't hesitate to reach out if you need something in the meantime, got it?
I think that should do it for now. Have fun!
[ ooc: this is an open post for sutoku so FEEL FREE TO THREADJACK TO YOUR HEART'S CONTENT! ]

That all sounds so interesting! I'd love to hear all about where you come from sometime! You really come from a whole different galaxy and everything??
I'll admit, I've been to a lot of different times and places in my own world, but it's hard for me to even wrap my head around all that. I'm sure we'll be grateful for your expertise! Technology is a pretty weak area for me, but I bet that's no problem from someone who's probably been to space, huh?
[ and you know, the whole being a living mechanical race and all, but that seems rude to assume somehow?? ]

[At least he didn't say that it's because he's a living mech. There are Cybertronians out there who probably aren't very good with technology.]
Not all who's been to space would know technology well, but fortunately for us I do. I've neglected to mention that hacking is another one of my expertise.
While the technology here is ancient, if it's anything like Earth's, then it should pose no problem for me.
[He can't remotely hack right now, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know how to.]
