[ Video ]

[There's a short gasp as the feed comes on. Nico just, stares a second, before tipping his head side to side, then reaching out with his hand and waving it around. If anyone is watching, the image shifts around as he takes his earpiece off to examine it.]

Wow. I wish Bianca could see this. She would never believe me.

Ah, buongiorno! This goes both ways? I've been hearing some interesting things over this ear ... device? ... that don't quite seem right. Troubling, maybe, is the word...?

Also, it's my understanding this a prison? There must be a mistake. I'm only fourteen. There must be laws against this?

Also, what is a dimensional stabilizer?


[ Action ]

[Nico is confused. And excited. And also nervous. (Why is he here? He's not a bad person! Not... not really. Mama will worry.) He's nothing special, just a regular teenage boy. He goes to a boarding school and he doesn't really know his father, but his mama is beautiful and amazing, just like his older sister. His family migrated to America from Italy a few years ago, when the war started taking over Europe. His English is pretty good, even if his accent is still strong. He's a good student. A little hyper. He likes comic books more than book books, and wishes he had super powers (he doesn't). He has a crush on Jimmy Langly - but he'll tell you it's Jenny he's got the crush on.

Is that why he's here?

This is very new and strange, so no matter where you find him, he's likely to be gaping in wide-eyed wonder, and touching everything.]

[He smiles a little uncertainly.] Is that why you're in this prison: contributing to the delinquency of minors?

Yeah... yeah, that's likely one of the reasons. Delinquency of minors. I like it.

[Kaylee who ain't so much a minor but is innocent enough. River... though that girl has her own issues.]

What'd you do to get brought here?

I'm not so sure. I don't think I've done anything worth being arrested. Fought with my sister and took the Lord's name in vain. [There is one thing, but he presses his lips tight over that. No one knows about that, not even Mama.]

[Mal frowns] They don't sound like prison for life worthy crimes... Not that I ain't doubtin' you, but unless you actually killed your sister? Don't see why you'd be here.

I would never do that! [He shuffled nervously.] They must have made a mistake.

[The advantages of being a smuggler is one has to be pretty good about reading people. So of course he notes the nervous shuffle.]

But you did do something. Something more serious than taking the Lord's name in vain.

[He goes pale.] I didn't. I didn't do anything. [It was just thoughts, dreams sometimes. He never acted on it.]

Nothing? Nothing at all?

[He shakes his head, more distressed the more Mal presses.] No, nothing. I swear.

[Now he is curious. A very real part of him wants to keep pushing, but there's the other part that feels sorry for the kid. He backs off. Besides. Perhaps he's perfectly innocent and just the fact that Mal refuses to believe him is causing more distress.]

All right. All right. Calm down. I'm sure you're the most innocent person here.

I don't know about that... [A weak smile.] Why are you here?

[He shrugs.]

Smuggling. Harboring fugitives. Murder because they don't listen to self defense pleas here. [Okay, so they'd been closer to actual murder, but those are details.]

Whatever jobs we can get. Whatever pays. An' sometimes we take on passengers. Rent out a shuttle too to make some money.

Oh. Because for a moment there, you made it sound like you were into something unsavory. But that doesn't seem so bad.

...Unless it is.

Is it?

[Mal grins.]

Guess that all depends on the job an' who employs us. Might be some of it ain't quite on the right side of the law.

So you are a criminal, then. Are you like a mercenary, or like a Robin Hood?

Uh... More like a, whatever keeps me an' my crew fed... an' our ship flyin'.

Flying? Is that an expression...?

No. I have a space ship.

[Mal chuckles.]

Perhaps. But not about the spaceship.

I suppose you could put it like that. Don't really have a homeworld anymore.

Why? Do you just stay in space all the time?
