Day 261 // video; action - sector 1 (driver's ed)
video

[ Waking up to Haruka is always a great thing, right? Just ask Michiru. Despite having been here for a few weeks, Haruka hasn't formally introduced herself over the network, so when she starts the feed up she coughs to clear her throat and gives the camera a smile. She's leaning on her motor scooter, and she's surrounded by bicycles. ]

Yo, everyone. If we haven't met before, I'm Tenoh Haruka - your new Driver's Ed teacher. We'll be meeting days 1 and 4 at 11, outside the sports center in sector 1. [ She laughs. ] Sure, we can't drive anything too fancy here, but I think we'll make do!

[ But enough cryptic references to her souped-up Vespa. The grin returns. ] Today we're playing with bicycles, so if you've never seen one of these before - [ she pats the handlebars ] - or never learned, or just want some exercise, we'd love to have you. I'll bring the bikes. You bring the balance.

See you then! [ A wink, and she cuts the feed. Wow, advertising feels weird. ]

action - driver's ed class

[ As promised, Haruka has something like half a dozen bicycles, complete with helmets and water bottles, lined up outside the sports center. She's in a tracksuit and is doing stretches while she waits for her class to convene, and she's also brought along a toolkit and enough training wheels for everyone, if necessary. Plans for the class involve getting everyone a bike, finding out who knows how to ride one and who doesn't, showing the different parts of a bicycle and how it works, and then practicing by riding around the area. She'll save taking a bike tour of the dome for the next class, unless everybody who shows up already knows how to ride.

Also, students beware. She's friendly for one-on-one, but Mentor Mode!Haruka can be a little strict.

((ETA: A mingle thread for riding around in class has been added!)) ]

[ ....Or that. Ah well. ]

Some things do improve with age, y'know.

[ Plus they have to make do with what's available, but pff. Purely rational arguments about little things are boring. ]

And they have, with the invention of certain technological advancements of which that bicycle lacks.

[ You'd really like to win this argument, huh? Haruka shrugs. ]

No one's making you ride one.

[ the implant that rests where an eyebrow otherwise would arches upward slightly. ]

I did not imply that you, or anyone else, was.

[ a nod. the offer's noted. ]

I'm curious; what is it about bicycles that you find appealing?

Bicycles specifically?

[ That's...actually tricky. ]

They're safer to learn on than motorbikes, and we're not allowed cars....

But mostly, it's the wind.

The wind? Then you will be pleased to know that in my time, bicycles hover.

[ Figures. Multidimensional prison can auto-translate in real time but she misses out on the hovering bicycles. ] Do you even still pedal them?

So much for a workout. [ She runs a hand through her hair. ] Guess I'll stay outdated for now.

That does not mean that people who prefer the more "outdated" methods do not seek them out. Two of my crewmates in particular enjoyed making use of 20th and 21st Century programs on the holodeck during their off hours.

How far in the future are we talking?

[ She's gotten the whole "different worlds" thing, but she's met a girl from the 30th century in hers. How's this stack up? ]

The late 24th Century. I, myself, am from the year 2376.

[ she wasn't even born on earth and has spent the past two decades of her life clear on the far other side of the galaxy. ]

Yes and no. There are some aspects of ancient human culture that I am aware of. Others have been something of a surprise.

[ some pleasant, others not. ]

Well, I hope it's mostly been pleasant.

What's your name? [ She gave hers in her broadcast, so this feels lopsided. ]
