[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. ]

Yosh.

You know if you have to add a lot to it, I think that might defeat the purpose, eh.

[bauhinia]

I'm not gonna change it. Just make it better.

[fierybluebird]

Oh? It's not that great as it is?

[bauhinia]

Right. Because I haven't gotten my hands on it.

[fierybluebird]

[Laughs.]

And you're sure you'll make it better, eh?

[bauhinia]

Yeah, I'm sure. [ Of course he's sure! He's positive! ]

[fierybluebird]

But then I won't know how it's like on its own merits, eh?

[bauhinia]

D'you wanna try it like that?

[fierybluebird]

[Shrugs.] You tell me. Is it worth it?

[bauhinia]

Maybe so you know the difference. [ So you know what a culinary master he is. ]

[fierybluebird]

Okay we can do both. It'll be an adventure.

[Everything is new and exciting when it's an adventure.]

[bauhinia]

Good plan. [ Adventure cake, adventure mac'n'cheese... these two turn everything into an adventure, don't they? ]

[fierybluebird]

[They're adventure addicts. Off they go to make adventure cakes and mac & cheese.]
