Who: Tek and anyone!
Broadcast: Video
Action: Beachside lounging
When: Early August

video
[the video feed flicks on to the glare of the sun, until the (absurdly) pretty man wielding the device leans back into the shade. he seems to be starting this broadcast mid-thought, and--for anyone who knows him well enough to spot the difference--he's smiling quite easily.]

--Oh, now I remember. I'd wanted to ask if there were any fine metalsmiths in the fleet. I'd intended to ask the next locals we happened across for their services, but... well. Metalworking does not seem to be among their most refined skills.

I'm looking for someone trustworthy and proficient in jewelry-making. I have several options for payment. If interested, please reply.


action
[and with that matter done with, he settles back to wait in high comfort. for anyone happening by, he has found the absolute perfect spot along the shoreline. there is a stretch of clean, soft sand with an impeccable view of the ocean, tucked into the patchy, partial shade of a small stand of trees.

and he must be feeling better than usual, because he's actually wearing something that Atroma has given him--gothy-looking shorts that he has drawstringed to hang just a little off his hips--and he is sacrificing multiple layers of beach towels and blankets to the sand. he apparently doesn't care whether or not he'll ever get the sand out of them again.

Tek has made himself the most comfortable basking spot on the planet, and he has left more than enough room for a friend.

he knows that Atroma is messing with his head, but he can't find it within himself to be bothered right now. he even has a little brush and bottle of lovely dark maroon ink that he's staining his nails with. someone is glitched and enjoying every minute of it.]

[ He wouldn't be willing to wear a dress, but pink nails are subtle enough that he's not going to get too humiliated. Ladon huffs a bit at Tek's tease, and he might be blushing just a bit. But he totally plays it off with a shrug.

And the question about a knife is easily answered. He takes a little leather sheath out of his shoe, where it was tucked in with his socks and then produces a switchblade, which he opens before handing it over by the hilt. ]
Always. Don't trust those zappy pea-shooters Atroma went givin' us to use, yeah?
justamobster: (Was I the greatest in your arsenal?)

[ He shrugs at that comment. Much as he plays it off, anyone who gets close enough to Ladon can likely tell he's used to violence. It's rubbed off on him almost like a scent would, hidden behind the smile and the gentlemanly behavior. He's not ashamed of it, not really. City life has made him this way, and he's survived because of it.

He watches Tek work for a few moments before glancing back out at the sea and watching the waves stroke the sands of the beach in front of them. ]


Never really paid much attention to 'em, yeah? Fussin' over 'em's more what dames do in Nieve. Only went learnin' how to act like a fella.
