[Straight-up, the first thing you notice on the video isn't necessarily the man sitting face-first, dead center in the camera with a somewhat stern expression. No, the first noticeable thing is the miniature white board and dry-erase markers just floating mid-air behind him. There are various equations and unintelligible scribbles and what looks like a music scale written on it, but it isn't sitting on anything and it doesn't seem like anything is holding it up.
He isn't paying it any mind. Instead, once he can confirm that the feed is broadcasting, the stern expression disappears, and he smiles, raising a hand in greeting.]
Hallo. My name is Dr. Siebren de Kuiper, and I am doing something of an interest check. As... well as a general inquiry, I suppose. I was an esteemed astrophysicist back home, and I was wondering if anyone has used the observatory here. I'd like to know what I'm working with.
But also on that note... we had what we call 'star parties' back home, as well. Group stargazing parties, essentially. Would anyone be interested? There's a whole new night sky to map out, after all, and observations are... quite frankly, more fun when done in groups. Fresh sets of eyes and whatnot. Besides, I do like seeing a healthy interest in space sciences!
[He gets more excited as he talks, and the objects floating in the background start to rise and shake a little. He seems to see the reflection in the stream and settles back down, clearing his throat somewhat sheepishly. The whiteboard sinks back down as well.]
Oh. Pardon me. Anyways, I do plan on joining the trip to Amegahara, so the actual events won't happen immediately. But if anyone would like to join me, do let me know.

no subject
[He turns a bit sheepish here.]
I... usually settle for snacking on speculaas, if I have something of a sweet tooth. Granted, my diet is not necessarily a priority when I'm working. But finger-foods in general - something easy to put down if an event occurs.
this tag inspired me to add a veggie tray to my grocery order thanks
( There's like to be a few regional differences, in what they call things, but it's close enough per usual that it has her smiling. )
I'll try to bring something a bit better for snacking, to supplement the sugar content, but I'd never turn down a good spice cookie.
sdakfl glad to be of assistance
[There's distinct homesickness in his smile.]
But yes, I suppose there should be some healthy options, just in case. I'll be looking for party favors as well.
I cronch a broccoli I cronch a carrot I cronch a celery 😔
( He's a cat, after all. Maybe he'll enjoy something feathery and silly like those springy headbands or something. )
