[A new voice comes from the communicators. It is low and just a bit gravelly, with a gently lilting accent. For a moment it is muffled, as if someone has his hand over the microphone, but then it clears up.]
Ah, hello? Is it true that if I speak into this device, people can hear me from afar?
[There is a short, disbelieving laugh.]
It's marvelous. Whoever invented it should sell it to my people. They would become hideously wealthy in days.

[The man walking down the corridor has the strangest eyes. One is pale and silvery; the other is not so much brown as golden. Each color alone could be considered beautiful, if unusual; but both set in his face they end up making him look jarringly uneven, rather than beautiful. He's also got small gold hoop earrings in each ear and a hoard of rings on his fingers. His simple travelling clothes look old, but they are clean and look as if they may once have been expensive. He's got a long stride, but he is walking unhurriedly. In his hand is the communicator, which his thumb keeps grazing over. If you approach him, he will smile and greet you.]

My name is Castiel.

[the video does not change anything for Po; his expression does not even twitch when it turns on and his eyes do not jump to the camera.]
Is it on?

Re: [video]
Date: 2012-02-17 03:24 am (UTC)Ah, I see. That is very helpful. Do people use it often here?
Re: [video]
Date: 2012-02-17 03:39 am (UTC)Yes. It's often easiest to express something when you can see the facial expressions of the one speaking.

Date: 2012-02-17 04:00 am (UTC)Yes, I think it is. But is it also appropriate simply to transmit your voice?

[No, he won't visit it. He doesn't like knowing what he's missing.]
