Heaven's BBS / Video (backdated)

[kokuyoyo]

From: Chikusa Kakimoto
Date: July 12


[Oh look who it is again. It's Chikusa! The camera is pointed straight at his face, and it's possible to tell that he's inside this time. His face is as dead as usual, and he doesn't say anything. That makes it easy to hear..... is that crunching?]

[Wordlessly, he turns the camera around, focusing on what would be a nice idyllic living room with an adorable cat with a split tail sitting on the end of a couch... if not for the fact that Ken is there.]

[Chewing on something.]

[His hands and mouth are bloody, and occasionally he pauses to spit out feathers. Yes, that is what you think it is in his hands.]

[Chikusa's voice finally starts up from offscreen.]

Ken... Why are you eating that?

'Cause the cat brought it, byon. [Ken gives Chikusa a look that has 'duh' written all over it.] You were just gonna throw it away! Hunting's not easy, byon! 'Specially not birds! And then it gave it to us, so somebody oughta eat it! [He huffs.] Now shut up, you're gonna make me choke on a bone.

[Chikusa's sigh is long suffering, and the camera shifts slightly to focus more on the cat.]

Pookie, why did you give him that...?

["Pookie" sniffs, looking condescending as only cats truly can, and looks away.]

You know full well that I don't answer to that name, dumb kappa.

I'm not calling you Ironclaw....

[With that, Chikusa turns the camera back to himself. His expression, minimalistic as it is, is very much the same as when he filmed Ken chasing a ball, only with much less things being thrown at his head. Just that dead eyed stare, and the slight quirk of his mouth.]

[They're relying on a cat to catch their dinner? Not the worst plan but seriously boys you need to self sufficient.]

Umm... do you guys need any tips on how to hunt? Or maybe... clean your kills?

[kokuyoyo]

He knows how.... But apparently you don't turn down gifts.

[Chikusa thinks this is ridiculous but. oh well.]

[Squints into the camera. Because that helps you see things the camera isn't focused on... anymore...]

Are you sure? It doesn't look like he cleaned it properly....

[kokuyoyo]

I was about to throw it out...

[Implication: so Ken stuffed it in his mouth before Chikusa could manage]

[talkbirdytome]

Throw it out? Perfectly good meat? That's a waste!

[kokuyoyo]

Other animals can have it. We already have food.

[talkbirdytome]

Still sounds like a waste to me. The right skills could've turned that into a delicious dinner.

[kokuyoyo]

For three people?

[talkbirdytome]

Nah, it's probably too small for that. But feeding even one person is better than wasting it.

[kokuyoyo]

Something else can eat it outside of the temple.

[talkbirdytome]

Well I guess that's nice for the local competition. But I'd still eat it myself.

[kokuyoyo]

I think it's a bit late for that, since Ken is eating it.

If we get anything else, I'll save it for you, if it matters so much.

[talkbirdytome]

That's okay, I can hunt for myself. But the next time you get ahold of prey like that, let me know. I'll show you how to clean it properly. Less waste that way.

[kokuyoyo]

You'll want to teach him how to do it.... He's the one who just started shoving it into his mouth.

....But alright...

[talkbirdytome]

Yup!

You just send him down to Chez Mielikki anytime! I'll get down to business and make a man out of him before you can say the Huns have arrived!
