Video, Monday Week 44

[The setting in behind Kaylee is fairly recognizable as the area right outside the ship. Which isn't surprising, as the smudge of grease on her face suggests she's very recently been pretty deep in a generator or engine.]

Alright, I ain't the only one who's been feelin' right discombobulated when they go on or off the ship the past coupla weeks, am I? Thought I might be comin' down with somethin' at first, but that's the only time I get all dizzy like. Wouldn't be the weirdest thing the ship's ever done I guess...

[misterbrief]

Yeah, right. [Anyone could tell him that about the ship and he still wouldn't believe it.]

Tell me, have you ever worked on a Saiyan spacepod? I'm sure you wouldn't even understand how one works, considering they don't have engines like you humans are accustomed to. [And he hasn't used the word human in a derogatory manner in a long, long time.] Maybe you are talented by whatever standards you go by where you come from, but that means nothing to me.

[Honestly, he's only had to fix his own ship when he was out on missions and the spaceship he used from Capsule Corporation, so a lot of this is just his arrogance speaking. He's not inexperienced but his realm of understanding is with those sorts of ships, and maybe a few others.]

I ain't worked on that specifically but I've worked on plenty of ships from different planets and all sorts of different dimensions. They don't all run the same, but I ain't ever met one I couldn't figure out and Salvation ain't gonna be the first.

And ya still ain't said what makes you so much more qualified than our entire gorram interdimensional tech team!

[misterbrief]

All I'm trying to say is that I don't think you idiots even know what you're dealing with! [HE SWEARS HE EXPLAINED HIMSELF TO HER. EARTHLING WOMEN, ASFJL;ASLKFJASL;DFJK'ASFASDFKLJASDFL;ASDKL;FASKLDFJKL;]

You'd better hope you're right and that thing poses no threat to us!

[wrench_and_ruffles]

And I already told you we know what we're doin' because this is our area! Still waitin' on what your area is other than bein' a xiongmeng de kuangren!

[misterbrief]

Did you not listen to a single word I said!? I already explained to you about my experiences with a ship that had its own AI that tried to kill me, every single person on the planet, and the planet itself! I don't know why this is so hard to understand, perhaps you should think about cleaning out those ears of yours, and while you're at it learn to speak properly!

[HE DOES NOT SPEAK CHINESE.]

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Look, I'm real sorry that happened to ya and all but that don't make ya any better on knowin' what any particular system on board does! Last thing we need is someone who ain't a mechanic muckin' about in the delicate bits, bèn dàn.

You just do your part and I'll do mine. And what in the galaxy have you been saying this whole time, I can barely understand half of your speech. Can't you speak normally like everyone else? [You know, the universal language: English.]
