Sixth Song -Video-

[persistentsong]

[Ranka smiles waving her hand slightly as she turns on the video recording.]

Hey everyone! Sorry I've been quiet the past few days but I have someone I really want to introduce you all to.

[She turns the video device towards Alto, and while she's off camera she's speaking in such an upbeat voice.]

This is Alto! He just recently was brought here, and he's one of my friends from where I came from. I hope that he and everyone will get along together.

I know he's really pretty but you shouldn't be fooled, he's very strong!

[He becomes a little indignant at the mention of his unwanted nickname.]

Don't mention that here!

[Ranka starts and looks up at Alto, the camera shaking around as she starts to wave her arms, her hair sticking up on end.]

I didn't mean that in a bad way Alto, but you are really pretty, and that's why the others always called you princess. It's true, that you're really strong though!

[Ranka seems to have brushed past her little blunder as she smiles hopefully at the camera.]

A-anyway! I hope that all my friends really get along with him. He's a good person!

[He sighs audibly and one of his hands disappears off the screen, the viewer can't see it, but he places a hand on Ranka's shoulder to soothe her a little bit. He's not really mad at her for it, it's just a bit of a point of contention with him. Nevermind that.

He turns his attention back to the camera and nods at those who may be watching.]

I'm Alto Saotome. I'm from the Macross Frontier fleet, like Ranka. Uh... pleased to meet you.

[Immediately when the hand goes off screen, her cheeks flush and she looks up at him and then back to the camera, smiling.]

Thanks for listening!

[With a small wave, Ranka shuts off the camera.]

I don't know who either of you are, but I'm glad to hear you have a friend from home here now!

[persistentsong]

Thanks. It was a little lonely, but with Alto here I have someone who knows about home, so it makes things easier.

[holyfight]

Uhn! I know it was good when I first arrived to have Kurosaki-kun here for me!

[... Well this is amusing.] What a pleasure it is.

[He is totally being polite for Ranka's sake, all right.]

[persistentsong]

I hope that you guys can become friends, Eyes.

[bloodypocket]

That is entirely up to him if he wants to be. [Though Eyes isn't exactly Mr. Social-make-friends-with-everyone either. So it could be rather difficult at first.]

[dreamsonwings]

Boys can be princesses?

[Video]

[persistentsong]

Well, he is really pretty isn't he?

[Video]

[dreamsonwings]

He is actually.

[Video]

[ledbythewind]

Hmm... he would make quite a lovely princess with the right outfit.

[Video]

[persistentsong]

I don't think he'd wear something that would make him look girly.

[Video]

[kabukihime]

No way!

[this_chair]

Eh....he is kind of pretty. Not in the way you're thinking so don't get the wrong idea.

video;

[persistentsong]

He is! The others around us used to tease him a lot about his face.

[demonical]

[A long pregnant pause before

Wait for it

Wait for it]

Huh.

[persistentsong]

[Blinking she sees Rin and brightens instantly.]

Hey Rin!

[seventeenpills]

Hi, Ranka! So, this is Alto?

Alto, it's nice to meet you. Ranka told me a little about you. I hope you enjoy being here, even though it's a little strange.

[persistentsong]

Yes, this is Alto! How are the dance lessons coming?

[ ahhhh ehehe. she doesn't know either of you, but seeing two friends be like this... it always makes her so happy.
