First Change

[Video]

[The video that comes up looks...off, somehow. The subject seems normal enough: human male, with spiky blond hair and eyes the color of a clear summer sky. And grinning.]

[It takes a moment to realize that, while the video comes through right-side up, the spikiness of the hair is more from the fact that his head is hanging off the seat of a couch with his legs up over the back.]


Good morning, campers!

And for those of you who have just arrived? Welcome to the Clipper! We have fun and games!

[And if anybody is wondering if that's a reference? The fact that he hums a riff of Welcome to the Jungle by Guns 'n' Roses will clear that up. Well, if they recognize the song, at least.]

[The picture goes fuzzy for a moment as Jason does a somersault from the couch, landing in a crouch and shaking his head.]


Whoo, headrush.

Anyway. My name is Jason Schuyler. [Pronounced 'Skyler', because Dutch.] I'm one of the Assistants here on the Clipper, though I haven't been here for THAT much longer than you newbies.

I run a dance class most days in the Common Room, so feel free to drop in and participate. I subscribe to the Elle Woods school of happiness: exercise gives you endorphins, and endorphins make you happy.

[Ignore that the rest of that quote is about happy people not shooting their husbands. He knows THAT part is a lie.]

I also, occasionally, turn into a wolf. That's entirely under my control, so if you decide you need something to pet, give me a little bit of warning. It takes some time and I'm kinda stuck that way for about six hours or so afterward. But I'm happy to do so to help the general happiness quotient.

And even without that, I've been told I'm a good ear if anybody has something they need to get off their chest. Just come and find me.

[Spam - OTA]

[Those looking for Jason will mostly find him in the Common Room, either lounging on one of the couches or sometimes playing one of the VERY G-rated video games. Or dancing.]

[Assistants can sometimes find him in the Treehouse. Usually listening to music while keeping an eye on things.]

He reaches up, locks his lips, and throws away the key.

"Not my secret to tell. But she's got enough of a nose she won't be fooled for long. Her name's Iris. She's... more my temperament than yours. Hasn't been demoted yet, though."

That gets a laugh.

"Need me to give her something to chew on?"

Jason will see him perk up a little in amusement before something in his eyes... fractures. And he nods.

"I know how that goes. Extremely well." He'd say intimately, but he doesn't want to give the wrong impression. Especially since he's, essentially, his-own-wife-sexual.

He recovers quickly, anyway. Nothing for it, but he misses another certain stubborn, cranky, tiny woman.

"Grumpy is a requirement in my family. As is stubborn. I'll take your warning, though."

"And I'm sure she'll be glad to have you here to help."

He chuckles to himself.

"I'm honestly surprised no one else from my world has come here yet. My grandfather alone would probably drive the Nurse to madness."

"If my uncle Beldin isn't grumpy enough, then there's something else to it," he says knowingly before patting Jason's shoulder and stepping away. "I just wanted to give you the information. I don't want to make you late for your dance class."

"Speaking as a king, that does not matter as much as you're thinking."

But he'll nod and start trotting off.
