[fourteenth fragrance] backdated video; August 9th

[bauhinia]

[ Hong Kong has his comm set up for a completely intentional, confessional style video. He's not wandering around or flicking things into buckets of water or filming himself blowing something up. Well, he ought to do that eventually, but not today. ]

So, hey. I didn't realize it yesterday because of all the celebrating and stuff, but it looks like it's been a year since I got here. Doesn't really feel like it. I mean, I seriously never thought I was gonna be here for that long.

Even though it's not that long, I guess. Anyway, I'm just posting this because I kinda wanted to say thanks to everyone. I know this place is like, super ridiculous sometimes, but there's a lotta people who work hard to make it better for us.

So, thanks.

And don't laugh, okay? I'm being serious here.

[ With that, he looks aside, seeming kind of embarrassed. He then ends the feed. ]

How come? [ Hand on cheek. ]

Are you known for your food then?

[bauhinia]

I guess because people don't feel like saying it to me much. [ He's a little amused by this though. ]

Yeah, I'm pretty famous for it.

[liquidate]

That's stupid. Who doesn't tell people they're nice? If you do somethin' for me I'm gonna call you nice!

Eeeeeh? Famous! You've got me drooling~

[bauhinia]

Maybe they don't think I'm that nice.

Wait for it, I'll show you something great. [ Time to work his magic here. ]

[liquidate]

Then they're a bunch of freaks.

[ Leans onto table. ] I'm excited~

[bauhinia]

They probably are. [ He's so kind sometimes. Then again, the level of insult implied in 'freak' is sort of variable in his mind. ]

You should be. Anything else you really like?

[liquidate]

Meat and fish are okay, but they have to be tender.

These teeth are made for shredding, you know~

[bauhinia]

Tender, right. I can do that.

Sounds kinda ominous when you say it like that. [ He is well aware that this is probably the point. ]

[liquidate]

Did it? Oops! It's true though, that shit's basic Biology.

[bauhinia]

Biology or anatomy?

[liquidate]

Anatomy is a subcategory of Biology!

[bauhinia]

Nothing wrong with being specific.

[liquidate]

So you want me to say carnivore instead of meat-eater?

[bauhinia]

Only if it's true.

[liquidate]

Sorta. I never really conformed to that kinda thing. I do whatever the fuck I want.

[bauhinia]

Kinda thought so. That's cool too though, really.

[liquidate]

You say a lot of things are cool.

[bauhinia]

A lotta things are. [ Isn't this obvious? It feels obvious to him. ]

[liquidate]

That's a good mindset!

[bauhinia]

I kinda always thought it was a pretty good way to look at things.

[liquidate]

Yeah! But when something you think's gonna be cool turns out to be shitty, what then?

[bauhinia]

Make it cool.

[liquidate]

HAHAHA, ALRIGHT WISE GUY.

You can make a death cool?

I can!

[bauhinia]

I think it's a little harder to do that on purpose.

[liquidate]

Not for someone good at it.
