[Video] The Worst Reindeer

[Camera... on! After a quick scrutinizing, the figure pulled back. It's a reindeer! No, it's some dude dressed like a reindeer, complete with the antlers and ears, a spiky black collar and silver bell, and a glowing red nose. But rather than be embarrassed about everything, this awful reindeer gave a fist pump and a grin.

Squint a bit. Oh god, it's Kanji.]



Sup!? I just finished the costumes this morning and I'm cute as hell! Anyway, I wanted to put somethin' up too: I'm takin' commissions for Christmas or Starlight or whatever! I can put together job outfits, mittens n' hats n' scarves or whatever to keep somebody warm, stitch up or knit a doll and anything else that needs a bit of handicraft! If you ain't sure if I can make it, lemme know here or on my linkshell and I can give a yes or no. The link to it's gonna be attached to the message.

[And it sure is. But Kanji glances off screen, nods, and waits a moment. He was waving somebody over, but he didn't seem successful. He looked back to the camera.]

A'right, and for those of ya on the more tech-y side of things, I got my best pal who's pretty badass with screwdrivers n' wrenches n' stuff. If it can be tinkered, if it can be upgraded and modded with cool lasers and shit, they're the one to go to. I'll forward linkshell messages her way!

Here: A, uh... sample. [He reached under the desk and pulled up what appeared to be a small yellow carbuncle doll. But the moment he set it down and gave the brass key in its back a few good turns, the doll came 'alive' and began to hop and explore.]

There. Wind-up pets! With all that aside, if you guys get orders n' shit in before the end of the week, I can get it out to ya by Christmas-Starlight.

But most importantly...! A'right, ready?

[He looked off-camera. Then he nodded, stepped to the side and stooped. There's a squeak of surprise, and when Kanji's back in frame he's got another reindeer on his shoulder, dressed with a gold bell and a snappy necktie of holly. This reindeer is fighting to keep her composure. Did she lose a bet? But the bigger reindeer flexes his free arm, and the smaller one hesitantly follows suit.]

...All orders'll be delivered by reindeer! For the spirit of things, yeah?

[Though she nodded to Kanji, she shot another look at the video - still not happy with getting Kanji's hopes up like that. Off-screen she goes momentarily narrowed eyes all the while.]

[Kanji, you don't realize it but you're actually impressing Iwai. Good job.]

That's smart, kid. It keeps the shop relevant. Keeps people wanting to come look your way to keep the business going. Ya gotta do something new with things that have been around for awhile these days.

OH! WHAT A BRILLIANT IDEA! YOU REALLY DO THINK OF EVERYTHING.

[Oh, how exciting! A new hat with a practical edge! How wonderful.]

JUST LET ME KNOW IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO IN RETURN! BESIDES THE OBVIOUS PAYMENT. A PASTA, PERHAPS?

Stuffed animals. She's got a Cactuar, this really big chocobo, and--

do you think you could one of me and one of her?

You've got the start of a mind for business. Not something I usually see in kids your age.

[Kid looks young at any rate.]

You been keeping up with the dye thing here? It'll give ya some good practice for when ya get back.

I know she's got this cute little hat and dress she wears when she performs, but...

I dunno. Y'ever seen her just walkin' around in that pink sweater? She looks good that way, I think.

Damn. You made your job outfits? Maybe I'll have to commission some Gunslinger shit from you at some point.

[Eh why not. Support the kid to keep this passion going and all that. Besides, he looks like a thug but he can tell he's a good guy.]
mech_and_mutt: (Brr...)

[video]

[personal profile] mech_and_mutt 2018-12-15 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's her alright.

Sure. Or what I usually wear, the coat and hat. You don't mind doin' fancy, complicated stuff like that, right?
mech_and_mutt: (Well um...)

[video]

[personal profile] mech_and_mutt 2018-12-15 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright. I'll send it over.

Gettin' a doll of yourself isn't a weird gift, right?
mech_and_mutt: (Zzzz...)

Hey! I--

[No. He said 'friend.' Don't read too deep into the whole 'Bond' thing, Red.]

...nah, I guess you're right.
