 [Irving is sitting relaxed and calm in front of the camera.]

Well. Since we're back, and well done everyone, and we're all engaged in new projects, I would like to announce on of my own and... [He smiles affectionately.] Romana's... A radio station. 

You may have noticed it in Freyr and it seemed such a shame to let it go fallow, so we fixed it up and, with the generous assistance of our native friends, left a few absolutely free radios in the Welcome Halls of the various gods and some for sale in the electrical shops all across the city, if you should decide to get one of your own!

A radio station is no two man job, however, and as such, I would like to invite you to contribute. I want this to be a real community project. Anything that can fill airtime, be it gossip or music or whatever, I shall be delighted to hear your ideas.

No? Who else is constantly talking about themselves even when they pretend that they aren't?

I-- you're fast. Don't you want to test me first? ( okay so he got another- job? maybe? he'll certainly be better at this than playing at being a houseboy ) What do you want? There are a dozen versions of every single story. You're just lucky that I know most of them.

[becauseichooseto]

[He's a little puzzled, to be honest.] It would seem you. But generally, people with egos talk about themselves. And why not? There's one thing to be obnoxious, but another to be proud of who you are. And we're the best reference we have to how people might feel or act, aren't we?

If you passionately believe in stories, as you seem to me, then you won't undervalue them by telling them badly, now will you?

I want something that will appeal to our younger audience, especially. Eight year olds to twelve year olds yet, also to the older set. Stories that have adventure or a moral message of some kind, that speak to our natures, better or worse.

[madeforwalking]

( that's okay, puss either ends up confused or causes confusion. )

That would only hold true if pride would be something people would experience in moderation. Isn't it typically either too little or too much though? If I'm proud of who I'm, I'm guaranteed to meet someone who'll call me arrogant.

No. ( that. was a bit more passionate than what he'd been gunning for. he'll just awkwardly clear his throat now, okay? ) I'll do it right.

..make it so that your audience could learn from it? Stories are full of things that should happen once, but no more than that.

[becauseichooseto]

People only complain when it's one or the other. And people have different views of what is enough or too much but honestly, there are more things to do than concern yourself with that.

I know you will.

Yes, something along those lines.

[madeforwalking]

Someone is going to cry again. Those people usually come to me even when they think me unable to talk.

Do you normally have so much faith in people you've never met before?

We're going to have to wait with Bluebeard's story then.

[becauseichooseto]

[Irving's missing something. But he also figures that it isn't so much is business either.]

I have faith in people who put themselves forward.

I suppose so.

[madeforwalking]

That sounds like something that should leave you kind of bitter.

Whatever. Just - I'll come over and you can judge me. Let's hope that you can get people beside me to save this project.

[becauseichooseto]

Not at all. I'm not offering you my heart, here. Merely an opportunity. If I don't give you that, then I shall ever be ignorant which never got me anywhere.

[Ye of little faith.] My project doesn't need saving, thank you.

[madeforwalking]

Hearts aren't something I want, anyway. They cause a lot of trouble. ( he gave his away and look where that got him. but - it's reassuring not to be thought responsible for someone else. thank you grey-haired guy, you made his life a bit easier just now )

Anyway. Whatever. I - look, I'm going to end this conversation and you can be knowledgeable and pleasant with someone who can follow your example.

Uh-- ( he'll do just that, too. will wonders never cease )

[becauseichooseto]

[Irving is the mentor for everyone. He has never been anyone's responsibility, even if it suited him to have them believe as much.] Oh, you're doing all right.

Good day.
