[Hey guys, look who it is. The bright and cheerful and constantly snarky kid. Who is smiling wide, though it looks a bit strained. Good news, his arm has healed since getting back. Bad news, Tommy looks nervous and maybe a hint of stressed as the video starts. But hey, he's in the greenhouse, which is obvious from the greenery around him. And his communication device is propped up against something, because his hands are in the shot, working at the soil around a lush Cyanana plant, clearly working fertilizer into the soil with care.]

So, like... Just because we've got the ships and stuff doesn't mean it's not important for us to maintain the greenhouse, right? We were gone for a while and not all the places in here did well while we were gone. And then I was walking around and realized that we're sorta scattered, the people working here. So maybe people with the skill should, like, coordinate? Because fresh food on the ships is good too. We can preserve shit and put it on the ships for variation.

I also wanna do, like, hydroponics on some of the ships. So if we gets spaced again for a while, we can have fresh stuff.

Guess...

[He sighs and his hand cards through his hair. Which means some dirt is now there in the perfect white strands.]

Guess I mean I'm willing to help organize. Map out the greenhouse, help us figure out schedules and when to work on different plants and that shit. Or not. Someone else can take that charge. I don't much care. It just needs done. Might also need an engineer to help with the ship part. And maybe people to okay adding it to other ships and to take care of the plants.

Anyway uh...

[Let him be useful. He failed as a hero in the storm. Disappointment and frustration flash across his face in the video and then it's gone.]

Thoughts?

[Oh man, talk about complicated.]

Do you believe in souls?

I do. Although from the sounds of things it's different from your world?

I mean, no. Not fully. They just don't tend to linger. I'm absolutely certain that souls exist in my world.

[And that certainty is very complex for him.]

Er....I'm afraid you're loosing me here. I can follow a lot of crazy stuff, but I'm not getting the full picture. Care to explain some more in detail? I'll go get some more food you in the mean time.

I don't know where souls go when they die. I definitely believe that people in my world have them, though. That's what I'm saying. I'm certain souls exist and can be torn to pieces.

I suppose it deals with what you believe. I know every culture has their on versions. And some don't believe in souls at all. But... how does this refer to you and your brother?

We're twins, right? Except... except not. I was born to the Shepherd family. He was born to the Kaplans. But that's because our souls were retroreincarnated from these two twin brothers named Thomas and William Maximoff. Souls sent into the past when they died, we were born to different families. We only met three years ago. And we're identical except for colors and I'm more muscled than him.

.....Alright I can understand this to a degree. I'm familiar with the idea of reincarnation. Although, this is the first time I've heard it actually happening. I can see now why this is so complex.

That’s before I get into the fact that mom made us with magic and our original souls were shards of the demon Mephistopheles.

......[That earned a raised eyebrow. Okay this was new territory for him.]

You have a very interesting world???

Yeah, you could call it that. I call it a mess.

[But he grins anyway, because it's easier to keep his face softer to compensate for the depression.]

I suppose. But at least I have a better understanding of you learned you had a brother. I only have a bunch of cousins.

Well... No. You didn't learn anything about how it happened. I was in jail. His fiance got kidnapped by a war leader of the alien race it turned out he was the prince of. And my twin went looking for help. Busted me out of jail and there it was.

[That's how it was, he just happened to be there, and had met his brother.]

[He simply shook his head at the whole story unfolding.]

......

And they say that people from Wild Space have crazy stories. You have quite a colorful past.

It's not stories. It's... life is stranger than fiction. It's a saying back home.

[His life has been a bit of a mess.]

Do you want anything else to eat or drink?

[Eli suggested in a way to help lighten the mood a bit and also to keep busy.]

I'm always big on more to eat. My abilities mean I use up so many calories.

[And he doesn't have much more to say than that. More food will make him Eli's worshipper.]
