[Edge puts himself on full view in the video for the sake of people who don't know him, emphasizing things such as the mask, the cloak, the weapons at his side. Though it isn't a black stealth outfit concealing his form entirely, what else could anyone call him but a ninja?]

Hello, everyone! My name is Edge, and as you've no doubt deduced, I am a ninja. More to the point, I'm a ninja willing to teach those who want to learn the techniques I have to offer. Stealth, disguise, throwing weapons, combat techniques both armed and unarmed that focus on quick and aggressive takedowns -- I'll even teach what ninjutsu I can, if I find students with the knack for it. All of these are techniques we can use in our efforts to fufill prayers, fight ayakashi, or investigate trouble in the Far Shore or the Near. Of course, you don't need to learn all of them, if you're only interested in stealth, or physical combat, or whatever suits you!

[Edge glances to the side, slightly.] This was... originally intended to be a joint effort with Ayumu. I think she would want me to continue it, though I'm not going to be able to teach everything she could have, so sorry about that.

In any case. [Putting that somber thought behind.] If you're interested, do let me know. Classes will be held at my god Saber's temple, flexible times for people who might be busy. We'll work it out once I know who's in. Hope to see you there!

[Seriously, don't ask how many takes this video required.]

[ When Nanako appears on the BBS this morning, she's looking a little worse for wear, a little pale but with a feverish flush to her cheeks and a red nose. She looks pretty miserable. Currently, she's seated at her kotatsu, head laying on her arm, and the little girl should probably be in bed right now, but... ]

Gods can get sick? I guess we can. That doesn't seem fair. I still have so much to do...

[ She might be pouting about this a little, which she normally doesn't do, but she also doesn't feel very good right now. ]

If people aren't too busy, could someone take some more cold medicine to the Near Shore? A lot of people are getting sick and colds there. I've been taking medicine and soup to help but I don't think I can today...

[ And since that seems to be about as much talking as she can handle before coughing again, she switches off the video for now. ]

{{ OOC Note: Feel free to hit Nanako up here over the BBS although she might be replying in text for a bit, but she also has a log up here if close CR want to swing by and check on her. Feel free to hit me up at [plurk.com profile] chaneystarr with questions or plotting. }}

Private text to Chikusa and Ken
Maybe it's better if you two stay away at Hakkai's for a few days so you don't get sick, too. Do you think I could send Suou over there just in case?

[ Even if she's not sure she could convince her other shinki to go, but she doesn't want to make someone else sick, either! ]

Date: Jan. 20th


[As the camera clicks on, you can hear Leo muttering:]

Do we really have to do this, Aymeric? We could simply send invitations out individually when it’s closer to time.

Was it not your suggestion that we do this?

[It’s said quietly as well but the tone is gentle.]

There is nothing to worry about. We will do this together.

[Leo sighs and looks at the camera, trying to smile. It’s obvious he’s kind of regretting this decision, though.]

Right. For those of you who don’t know us, this message isn’t necessarily for you but--I am Leo, currently the god Odin.

And I am Aymeric de Borel, also assigned as a god. [What? God name ain’t important here, the actual one is.]

We--I--decided that this would perhaps be the fastest way of getting the news out. Aymeric and I…

[Deep breath.]

We’ll be married in the spring.

[It’s not shown on camera but one of Aymeric’s hands covers Leo’s, gently squeezing it as a way of reassuring him. He knows how they both are, not the type to make big announcements such as this but also wanting to share how they feel about each other. And with all the bad happening lately, there needed to be some sort of good. But they can see the elezen’s expression as he smiles warmly.

Leo appreciates the comfort, Aymeric, but he’d appreciate you saying something a little more.]


Invitations will obviously be sent out closer to the date. We would have said something sooner, but…

Given the circumstances of the recent events, it seemed a bit out of place to speak of it. However, we wished to tell our friends and fellow comrades of our news as soon as we were able. We are still planning for the ceremony and celebration so we are unable to answer much on that front.
[This is so different than trying to speak on politics or try to sway a group of people; he can do that with his eyes shut. No, this much more nerve wracking and he’s giving a mental prayer to Halone to give him strength not to screw this up.

They both suck at this, huh?]


Like I said, this is mostly for those of you who know us...or rather Aymeric. [He’s seen Aymeric’s contact list, okay.] Hopefully when the time comes, you’ll join us on our wedding day. ...gods that’s weird to say.

A moment I am looking forward to with great fervor.

[Sap. Leo gives Aymeric a slightly dopey look before he turns to the camera.

Thank you for your time.

[End feed.]


[OOC: Both will be responding!]

[Text]
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.]


[Text]
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.

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