[The video feed opens up to panning between two rooms in Baldr house - 201 and 203 specifically.  They're refurnished to fit his preference, aka pretty classy, rich guy stuff, as he would put it himself.  Don't ask how he got it.  Just.  Don't.]

Hey, so I'm cleaning up these rooms, trying to make 'em into one big one for myself.  Anyone wanna help me tear down this wall?  Uh, someone who can make keys would be pretty good too.  Have to pick the lock every time I want to get in.  It's not like anybody's using them, so it's fine if I do, right?

Maybe I should be advertising my sweet bachelor pad for the lonely women of Asgard, heheh. [He grins. It's only half-joking...] Haven't had a dry spell since I was about fifteen, geez...

Anyway, hey, Ange, you get bored of staying with those freaks in your house, come hang out with your old man!  Nobody ever visits me, it's not like I'm in a home.

Uhh, an airplane? Shit, do you mean you don't have them? Okay, let's see...they're all metal, a big cylander with seats and stuff inside it for people to travel in, with a pair of wings sticking out the sides, they take people all over the place, over the ocean or just over a tonne of land, doesn't matter.

[occulthymns]

People travel in something like that?? It sounds dangerous!

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Guess it is sometimes. Not always. I've been on them tonnes of times and never had a problem!

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

But metal is really heavy! Wouldn't it just fall out of the sky?

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Well, sure, but it's got wings and engines that keep it up!

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

... How many people can fit in them?

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Depends. Some only fit like five. Some can get hundreds.

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

Hundreds?? Okay, that's completely crazy! There's no way a plane could be strong enough to hold that many people and stay in the air!

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Sure it can, the engines are real big, makes them strong.

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

I don't know, that sounds too crazy to believe.

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Look, I use these things all the time, it's not that weird, you just can't picture it 'cause you haven't seen it!

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

[.... He's got a point there.]

Well, do they have pictures in the library?

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

I've never been, so I couldn't tell you, but they probably do? Or maybe there's somebody around who's good at drawing and knows what they look like.

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

Could you draw one?

[Audio -> video]

[gunsgoldgirls]

...I can try.

[give him a minute as he scribbles one on a piece of paper and switches to video to hold it up.]

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

[What even.]

That's a plane?

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Yeah, well, I never said I was a good artist! It's something like that, anyway! The dots are windows...

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

Why did you give it a face??

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Huh? I didn't give it a face! That's what it looks like!

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

Then it looks like it has a face.

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Well it doesn't! That's just the cockpit and junk!

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

... The what? [She starts snickering. MATURITY.]

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

You know, the cockpit, where the pilots sit--

[oh, he gets it. Snickering too, as if being in his forties has made him mature at all.]

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

Who thought up a name like that?? That's so vulgar!

[Audio]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Uhh, I think it's got something to do with roosters?
