Arrival Part 2 [Network Video]

[Now that Connor's been here for a minute and met a few people, he decides to try his device again.]

My name is Connor. I'm a recent arrival. I've met some of you already, but to those of you I haven't- hello.

[Short and to the point.]

Pretty much just like normal spiders, I guess. They're lean, though; they don't have good hunting ranges, and do a lot of cannibalism. Sorta bitter if you accidentally bite into a venom gland?

[Quintet isn't really sure how to describe it. Spiders are spiders. If you don't know what a spider tastes like, then what have you been doing all your life?]

I've got a Pilot position, not that it matters. We haven't had call to use the ships yet, and they all left recently anyways. Something about upgrades. Communications is good, you get lots of languages.

I've never considered the idea of sampling a spider before, so I guess I'll have to take your word for it unless I do. They're social cannibals? [Most people would make a face about the venom gland thing. Connor doesn't.] I'd want to sample the venom separately.

[It seems like Connor hasn't been doing much living, in that case.]

I noticed there weren't any in the hangars when I first arrived. I wasn't sure if we were supposed to have any or not. [He nods.] I know many languages already, and I was thinking it might help with any unfamiliar computer OS's.
