[ an eyepatch-wearing dog's (or is it a wolf's) face appears in the feed. as though he was the one who was making the post.
as it just so happens, he might have been, with a very proud-looking man, coming into the frame to give him a scratch behind the ears. ]
Good boy.
[ the point of this exercise was twofold. to get to know a little more about his fellow refugees and what they held dear. and, well... maybe a small part of him wanted to show off his "son's" rather impressive skills. but, he would absolutely never admit that. ]
Everyone, this is DD. [ at the sound of his name, he gives an affirmative "bark", and Ocelot nods. ] All right, DD. Can you type "hello world" for everyone?
[ the dog (or wolf, who really knows) gives him a look, but sure enough, some text begins to appear on the screen. ]

[ a valiant effort... for a dog. Ocelot shakes his head, but gives DD a pat on the head for effort. ]
Well... maybe we just need a bit more practice.
[ DD barks in approval yet again, tail wagging. ]
How many of you have had friends like DD returned to you lately? How many of you are still waiting? Both of us [ he gives DD another pat on the head. ] are interested to hear what you have to say.
[ and he looks back to DD, and gives a nod. ]
DD, off.
[ and the dog nudges the feed, once, twice, before it's turned off again. ]

video — un: direwolf
It's both encouraging and a tad... worrisome, seeing these bonds restored. He almost wonders if their companions would be safer aboard the station. ]
What a handsome lad. [ Despite his quiet concerns, Robb's grin is stretched ear to ear. ] Welcome to the fold, DD.
Re: video — un: direwolf
at the compliment, DD lets out a firm bark. ]
He says "thanks".
[ though the username gives him some pause. ]
He's not quite as big as a dire wolf [ so he'd imagine. there were old folk tales about giant wolves, but he'd never put much credence into those. more likely they were based off of stories of ancient wolf fossils. or something like that. he wasn't the most avid follower of science. ] but he pulls his weight.
[ DD gives Ocelot a look as though he's slightly offended. ]
