May the record forever show the true nature of Caster, Archer, and Lancer.♥

[Four videos and another text message go up in rapid succession.]

[Video 1]
[Ginia offers a smile and a small wave before she begins signing. Her signs are smooth and clear, a measured speed for clarity. She's filming in her temple, the large den her backdrop.]

Hello, my name is Ginia. Awhile ago, I spoke to Lavi about offering sign language practice to his students, but was unable to reach out to his students due to life circumstances.

I thought I would ask now if any of his current students would like tutoring or someone to practice with. I'm also happy to help anyone that would like to learn sign language. We can work individually or in a group setting, whatever people would prefer.

Feel free to comment here or message me at [IC contact] any time. Thank you for your time.

[In the background of her video, as Ginia signs her message, Lancer enters with a full laundry basket. And a bucket of water? He sets the bucket down, sits on the couch, and begins folding the laundry. Or at least he attempts too. Never has someone struggled so much with folding shirts into neat squares. As he sets the folded clothes aside on the couch, one of the temple's large white dogs wanders in, climbs onto the couch, and flops on all of Lancer's work.]

[Video 2]
[Upon reviewing the video and realizing the event in the background, Ginia decides to film a second video. Can't embarrass her fellow shinki after all.]

[The setup is similar, though this time the background is the kitchen. As Ginia records, Archer walks into view and sets some treats on the floor. A large white dog wearing a Hawaiian shirt sits by the treats. This continues until there are four white dogs lined up in the background, all wearing different Hawaiian shirts. Once the last dog - a small, wiggly puppy - is in place, Archer drops a pair of sunglasses on the first dog, winks at the camera, and walks out.]


[Video 3]
[Dammit Archer!]

[The third video in the same big common area as the first. While the events in the background of previous two could have been accidents, at this point it’s clear the men in the background are doing it on purpose. Lancer is lying on the floor, arms spread out, and Archer and Caster are busy laying a pile of big white dogs on top of him. The first one doesn't protest, the second wags his tail excitedly, the third one is *unsure* but goes along anyway. There is also a small pupper that on her own decides to sit on Lancer's ankle. Caster is laughing and commenting but Archer looks at this masterpiece with critical eye - something is missing, something crucial. With sudden and strong pat on Caster's back, he sends him flying with a loud "geh" right on top of that pile.

There, perfect.]

[Ginia doesn't even try to record a message. A hand covers her face, shoulders shaking with laughter.]


[Video 4]
[There's no point trying anymore. Ginia gives the camera an exasperated eye roll. In the background, the men have stacked on each other like a totem pole: Lancer as the base, Archer on his shoulders, and Caster on top shouting directions as the tower of tall trolls lumbers toward Ginia.

Ginia reaches to the side and pulls out a large, brightly colored plastic gun and begins to unload foam darts on them, hitting each one squarely in the face a few times. As they stagger and try to retreat, drawn by the noise and falling darts, the puppy and one of the larger dogs begun to run around their feet, tripping Lancer and toppling all three to the ground.

Shouldering the gun, Ginia turns back to the camera and winks.]

If anyone is interested in learning sign language, or knows sign language and would like someone to practice with, I'm willing to teach or provide practice sessions. These can be individual or group-based, whatever people would prefer.

do you need hands to sign?
swordofzero: (hope)

[personal profile] swordofzero 2018-08-19 08:04 am (UTC)(link)
I don't mind. Whichever is easiest for you.

Maybe you should. I'd wager you could gather quite an audience.


[He's absolutely sure of it.]

How do you plan on organizing the lectures?

Wow.. They're so talented! They should be joining the Olympics! Or the circus!! [ It's not even meant to shame them, this is genuine admiration.. What else would you expect from Minako who just loves everything over the top and ridiculous. ]

But about the sign language part.. Do you prefer signing over using your phone? Because I'm totally up for learning if it's more comfortable for you! It might be fun too!

[ It doesn't even matter that she's only spoken to Ginia once before. She's up for accomodating her anyway. ]
mersunary: (Give the audience a grin)

Haha, you have such a lively temple! I'd imagine things are never boring with a group like that.

My shinki has a difficult time with speaking, so knowing something like this would probably be very helpful. You can count me in for certain, and I'll see if she'd like to come along as well.

I'm resilient. Fret not.

[ She has to be, in the face of a world that features individuals like teacup ghost....and your templemates. ]

[ The cuteness here is murdering him. The answer comes a while later- ]

Looks like you've gathered quite an interest. I wonder, would you prefer the hall to be used for the lessons, or should we prepare one of the other rooms?
reloves: (♥ will also turn into flowers someday)

[personal profile] reloves 2018-08-19 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I can learn it both for fun and to make it easier on you though, right? It's not like it's learning math or science-y stuff from some dry and boring book!

[ Minako might not remember any real memories of going to school, but that icky feeling which having to learn boring subjects gives her never fully goes away, memories or no memories. ]

That sounds fine.

[Schedule though. That's a thing for people with stability.]

I'm unsure. I was only named by Lord Saber yesterday so... If you yell me what times are best for you that might be easiest.

[personal profile] priforprince 2018-08-20 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
In any case, why would you encourage such a farce?

[ Your templemates are currently hovering somewhere between "a sudden rain shower during afternoon tea" and "using one's catchphrase five times in one sentence" on the Now Hibiki Has A Headache scale.

It's an extremely scelebritific measurement. ]

Yes, I fell asleep for a few days before New Year and when I awoke he had disappeared. [So he cannot say for certain when that happened.]

how many hands?

Don't worry, I'm sure you'll figure it out!

I don't really care whether it's an individual lesson or a group thing, so.. just let me know what's more convenient for you, I suppose! I like groups, but spending time one on one might be nice too, right?
priforprince: (slurp)

[personal profile] priforprince 2018-08-20 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ...well, go ahead and give an argument Hibiki can't dispute, why don't you. So be it. ]

You're very patient.

[ Tea will fix this headache. Here is some tea. What a surprise.

It seems there are a number of different ways to express happiness.... ]
