☆40☆ [Video/Action for Blackthorn City, backdated a day or so because... yeah uh... yeah]

[tearsofademon]

[So today, from the 'gear of a certain lazy mage, comes a video not of said mage or any member of his menagerie... but of a certain work-a-holic king.

With a Swablu on his head.

Oh, by the looks of things he's trying to get the bird off his head, but every time he tries to swat it off, it just hops and dodges out of the way before settling back down immediately after. I guess it likes Sion's hair.

Of course, most of what the 'gear's microphone is picking up? Ryner's snickering.]

Guess someone really appreciates how much time you put into your hair, Sion.

[Sion looks this way indignantly.] That's not--... [and then he sees the 'gear] Ryner, are you recording this?

[And now the video quickly shifts away as Ryner tries to innocently hide the 'gear behind his back.] Of course not.

[The Swablu, having made itself more comfortable on Sion's head in his moment of distraction, gives a content "Swa~", and then the feed is cut.]

[[ooc: blue is Sion]]

[innocently] I don't know what you're talking about.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Oh? Then perhaps you wouldn't mind letting me see that device of yours...

Action

[tearsofademon]

Why would you want to do that?

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Oh, I'm just curious about something. Though surely if what you say is true you'd have nothing to hide...

*"swa~ swa~" the swablu seems to REALLY have a good grip now, judging by how it's defying all attempts by Sion to dislodge it*

Action

[tearsofademon]

I'm sure it can't be anything all that important, right?

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Well, for your sake, I would certainly hope not~

Action

[tearsofademon]

So it would really be too troublesome to go through all the bother of looking, right~?

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Oh, it's hardly a bother at all, Ryner.

*oh hey, is he suddenly approaching and reaching for your gear?*

Action

[tearsofademon]

[NOPE he's got a pretty decent grip and is now trying to keep it out of your reach (though he is sitting on the ground, so...)]

I'm not giving you mine, Sion!

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

*...yeah that's not exactly out of reach there*

Ah, so you do have something to hide?

Action

[tearsofademon]

[Still, good luck getting it out of his grip...]

No! I just don't want to give you mine, okay?

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Well, then help me get this thing off my head and I can get my own.

Action

[tearsofademon]

Aww, but it looks so comfy up there.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Perhaps I should ask it to go to yours instead.

Action

[tearsofademon]

Pretty sure it's your hair it likes, not mine.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

I'm sure yours would be quite suitable. Don't you ever brush it? I imagine it would make a natural nest, after all...

Action

[tearsofademon]

But see, if it liked my hair better, wouldn't it have picked my head to sit on in the first place?

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Well, I can understand if it was too dazzled by my presence to notice at first...

Action

[tearsofademon]

Even if it was something weird like that, why disturb it now? Seems like it's settled in pretty well.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

*just giving you a look*

Would you want it sitting on your head?

Action

[tearsofademon]

Well, no, not really, but if it's happy...

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

I'm sure it can be content somewhere that isn't on my head.

*"blu~ swablu~" it sure sounds cheerful there, though*

Action

[tearsofademon]

Doesn't mean it wants to.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Well, unless you're going to volunteer to take it, it may just have to make do without.

Action

[tearsofademon]

You're the one it likes.
