Video One: The Play's the Thing (backdated to August 12th)
[the video opens on a young woman sitting sideways on a large, overstuffed armchair. legs crossed and slung over one arm, head resting on the other. she's got an anticipatory smile on her face, like someone who has a secret]
First thing is, I don't know most of you and most of you don't know me, so Alice? This is Hadriel. Hadriel? This is Alice. Moving on.
Okay, I think we're all in agreement that the entertainment options around here? Suck. [she waves a hand] With the exception of the Speakeasy because who doesn't love booze? But anyway, entertainment!
We have no TVs. No movies. No internet. Not even books. [she rolls her eyes to show what she thinks about that option] But there's one thing we do have and that's people.
And what can you do with people, I can hear you all asking. And the answer to that is plays. Acting! And I even have an idea for the play: the history of Hadriel. 'Cause not all of us have been here five million years.
First act can be a drama, the story of when it was just you guys, Fear and Hope. Second act is a comedy, the weird shit that happened when the rest of the gods came back. Third act? The Null attack. Which will be a musical. And you can't talk me out of that one, so don't even bother trying.
So I'm looking for volunteers! Actors, stagehands, costumers, set painters, shit like that. So fucking volunteer. And those of you going out to sea, don't worry. It's gonna take some time to get things organized, so you can get in on this, too.
((OOC: this is entirely the brainchild of Rey-mun who was kind enough to let my character be the public face of her idea. Thank you so much!))

And it's also kinda rude to go to something, planning on shitting all over it.

You're sure it's going to be so awful I'll hate it?
video
No, I'm sure that you're gonna hate it because you're no fun at all and this is supposed to be about having a little fun.

No.

The attitude is the problem. It doesn't matter where you're from.
