Interdimensional Cable
Today in the forum, someone has set up a techno-pile of video gadgetry. At the heart of it is a television, and an old one at that. The screen is large enough, but it sits in a retro wooden fixture that gives it the appearance more of furniture than of an entertainment system. All the better for it to hold the weight of a number of video-playing devices from across the ages and dimensions.
On either side of the pile of plastic boxes and tangled wires stacked on top are a set of outdoor lounge chairs. One, sat up like a chair, is empty. The other, fully reclined, is full of a whole lotta dead dude. It’s Harrowheart, who can’t possibly understand the vast majority of what he’s lying next to, a lit cigarette between his lips and his arms dangling off the chair and onto the grass. His floating hands are hard at work twisting knobs and pounding on the top of the television. Now and then the screen flickers with a hint of a signal.
Without spending the energy to lift his head, Harrow calls out to any passers-by, “Hey! What’s your favorite movie? People keep tellin’ me about ‘em, but I ain't ever seen one. I wanna find a good one and invite everyone over to watch it. Help me pick one out, will ya? And if y’ain’t ever seen a movie either… I dunno, weigh in on someone else’s recommendation?”
(( OOC Info: I want to stream a movie in-character! I love streaming movies, usually it’s a really good time for everyone involved. I’ve never done one IC, but I think this is a great opportunity to start. I’ll take any and all IC movie recommendations (real movies only!) and by next Wednesday I’ll try to decide which one we watch. The better your character talks it up, the better its chance! I’m shooting for next Saturday the 21st at around 8 or 9pm Eastern for a start time, but I’m going to be flexible if people know they can’t make it. I want as many people to be able to enjoy this as possible! If you’re interested in the idea or have any questions shoot me a PM and I’ll PM you back with answers and details and remember to get back to you when the movie and time are decided. ))

"He'd..." Jim rubs at the back of his neck. "He probably wouldn't think it was funny. Actually." Undead jokes kind of aren't funny on his ship at the moment. Too soon. And that's coming from the one guy who should be able to make them if anyone could.
Jim is an honorary undead, that's why he can use the Zed word
"Breathers don't think dead jokes are funny, Jim. I don't know why I always forget that, but I do. You brought up a good point, though. That people can go through each other's portals here. I was wonderin' if that was the case. Part of me hoped I could take some folks to Azeroth. Show 'em some castles, some floatin' cities, maybe introduce 'em to a dragon. Hell, I could show you the spaceship that crash-landed on my world. It's all made of crystal and stone, it's real cool."
He uses Zed because Jesse does, otherwise he'd call them lord knows what.
"If going to my world didn't involve going on my ship, I'd be thrilled to show you around, man. But I really don't want you to be hurt when the alarm sounds because someone who has no idea your kind can exist sees you with me and assumes the worst." Jim sighs and runs a hand through his hair. "Gotta get one of those PINpoint things. Then I could take you wherever. Show you a bunch of cool stuff."

"Man, don't sweat it. I rib ya, but I get it. You think I don't already know what it's like to be public enemy number one?" Oops, time to sip some beer. "Doesn't mean I can't dream, man. Can't pretend. Just don't listen to me when I make those comments. They're jokes, Jim. Don't sweat it."
