[The camera shakes slightly as the video starts. "I got it working," someone says on the opposite side of the camera. The subject, Eddie, grins.]
Thank you!
[Realizing that it is, in fact, recording, he turns his attention to the camera, his smile turning sheepish. From the angle he's holding the camera, he's visible from the neck up, flesh turning to metal just before it reaches his shoulders. His irises are pure black.]
Uh, hi. My name's Eddie. I think I met a bunch of you by now. I was wondering, by any chance, if any of the new arrivals happen to be all science-y. Scientists. Smart people. I will take anyone at this point.
[He holds the phone back somewhat to bring his blue-grey metal hand into view, flexing his fingers quickly one at a time to show off.]
Because, uh, fun fact, smartphone touch screens work on electricity, and Zarinium is a non-conductive metal. Or too low conductive. Or something. Alien metal. Doc could explain it better but they're not here.
So in short: Can't use phone. Please help.
[With that video super successful Eddie goes to end the recording... only to realize he can't stop the video and goes off to ask another kind random stranger to do it for him. Enjoy setting to watch that interaction too before the video finally ends. He'd edit this if he could, sorry world!]
