Tea and Crumpets [OPEN VIDEO]

[english_dignity]

Who: Arthur, Crumpet the cat, and you
Broadcast: Video - Open
Action: Cargo bay of the Wunderduck
When: Dec 16th

[Arthur is absolutely beaming into the camera as he holds onto a very ruffled, very grumpy Scottish fold cat despite its deep growling. Clearly, the cat wasn't happy about being shoved into the now-open box in the background of the video, but the nation couldn't be more pleased.]

Happy Christmas a little early, everyone! I hope the gifts you were sent were as good as mine!

This is Crumpet. I've had him for a very long time and raised him myself!

[Holds onto the cat's paw to make it 'wave' to the camera. Crumpet just glares flatly, unimpressed.]

Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him until he settles.

[Nothing can spoil his mood, nope.]

You'll be friends in no time.

Well, very well. Thank you ever so for letting us know.

[He eyes the cat, knowing the cat is eying him. So here we go.]

...certainly.

Honestly, I think he's the best gift I've been sent since I was brought here.

[Pauses, cat patting at his cheek when he does.]

Even better than the tea.

Re: Video

[timelysteward]

I will assume so ...

[He looks at the cat, before he perks.]

Would you like to have some tea on my new tea set?

Re: Video

[english_dignity]

[Face immediately brightens.]

I would love to. It'd be a shame to let it sit unused, after all.

Re: Video

[timelysteward]

That is precisely what I thought! ... since I do not drink any tea.

[ahem. BUT ENTERTAINING.]

Re: Video

[english_dignity]

[Loves entertaining people with proper tea too.]

Shall I come to you then?

Re: Video

[timelysteward]

Yes, please do! ... and you may bring the cat.

[Sigh.]

I suppose.

Only polite, all that.

[english_dignity]

For the best, really. Until he's used to the ship.

[Smiles at him.]

I'll keep a hand on him, promise.

Re: Video

[timelysteward]

Well. Yes. I suppose. He will need to be Watched.

[So he doesn't make Messes.]

Good! Good. Then he can have a saucer of milk.

[english_dignity]

I'm sure he'll enjoy that.

[Exactly. He can get very ornery when he's upset.]

I'll be right over.
