[Video] 3rd shuffle, 2nd deal

[cajunspice]

Who: Remy and open.
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: Twin Roses, Iskaulit, or wherever needed on the Fleet.
When: June 10 start.

[Some fumbling and the instant image of Remy holding the camera, as well as a brow of his going up, shows that it wasn’t his plan to start a video, before he gives a shrug. Needing time to now prepare for the video, Remy turns it around to focus on a grey cat, Oliver, to entertain those watching while they wait.

Watch on YouTube

He returns a moment later, taking the camera back and sitting on the bed with a pen and pad of paper before writing a message on it, holding it up to the camera once he is done.]

I’ve lost my voice. Augment glitch, not sick. Hate it, hate it all.

[Remy folds over to a fresh piece of paper, again writing in big lettering so it would be easy to read on the camera.]

Started yesterday, ignored it, hasn’t gone. Will be at work and other stuff since I seem stuck with it now. [This one also has a little >/ face drawn next to the words. He had really hope it was just something that would pass quickly, something short that would be gone in a day… it was not. It was why he may had been not as active the previous day, mainly spending it in his room rather than going about the Fleet as normal.

Looks like he was stuck with it.

Remy can be found on the Twin Roses, or at the Space Bar working. And at Málum later to drink his annoyances towards this all away.]


[OOC: the excuse to use cat video bribery found via Youtube.]

Twin Roses

[sassy_assassin]

[ Sara observes the video but doesn't make the connection to him being a shipmate. She's currently in the kitchen drinking shitty coffee, leaning back in a chair with her feet on the table. When she catches sight of him after the video, she'll call out ]

There's a text setting on these things. Allegedly.

Twin Roses

[cajunspice]

[Ah yes, their new shipmate. Hoped she like having so many pets around.

With his condition now much more public, Remy does make his way out of his room to be able to 'talk' back. That pen and pad still in hand.]

Yes, but then people wouldn't see my charming face. [Turning it around for her to read before adding a dazzling smile along with it.]

[sassy_assassin]

[ she's fine with them, though she may laugh when she finds out one is named Oliver. she smirks at his response, taking another sip of coffee before answering ]

So really it's a public service.

[cajunspice]

Absolutely. That and I didn't realize I had hit the camera mode at the time. [Remy admitted, not too put off by owning up to that.

Flipping over his paper, he wrote down something as he moved to sort out his own drink, leaving the paper for her to read as he prepared it.] Know this is all a surprise, but hope you're settling in well.

[sassy_assassin]

Hey, we can't all be perfect all the time.

And I've been in weirder situations, believe it or not. Normally I have my team to back me up, but I think I'll figure something out.

Malum

[universal_charm]

<sub>[ He saw the video earlier. Of course he did. But he figured it wouldn't be polite to laugh to much when he first saw it either. Because it was funny - Remy having his voice stolen. Could there have been any more surgically precise thing to go wrong for Remy that would annoy him most? No.

He figured he would find Remy pouting in one of the bars, and low and behold, there he was. He walked up to his lover, leaning down to press a kiss to the back of his neck before saying next to his rear - ]</sub>

I guess this means I can return that gag I bought.

_{[ He's joking. Or is he? ]}

Malum

[cajunspice]

[Oh Jim, if looks could kill, and, well, maybe at this point Remy's could, it's been awhile since he's had space to test out his powers. Either case, the gaze he leveled on Kirk was more than a little annoyed, but passed quick enough to not take it too seriously, half playing it up for the game of it all.

Though half of it was annoyed. It's been a real fun day since he ended up telling the Fleet about it.

Remy waved a hand towards the seat next to him, indicating for Jim to sit as he sorted out his pen and paper again, taking a short amount of time to write down his thoughts.]

Ha ha.

Re: Malum

[universal_charm]

_{[ Good thing looks couldn't kill, and besides would you really want to kill him, Remy? As if you wouldn't giving him the same kind of grief right now if the reverse were happening. Give as good as you get and all that jazz. He took a quick peck on Remy's lips before he sat down, winking at the note Remy held up. ]}

Come on, it could be worse. You could be, like, five or something ridiculous like that.

Malum

[cajunspice]

Five year old me had great jokes. And could talk. [Remy wrote that before putting his pen down long enough to take a long swallow of the drink he had, his gaze lingering on the other man as he glanced at him out of the corner of his eye.

And he absolutely would be giving him the same grief. And Remy knew that.]

[meowbel]

Oh my gosh, that cat is so cute! Look at its cute little meow! And its big eyes and cute fur and ahhh! He's so cute!!

[Clearly, this is the most important aspect to the broadcast]

Video

[cajunspice]

[It absolutely was, and Remy was more than happy to cater to that.] His name is Oliver.

[The camera moved off Remy to turn around to firstly a ginger cat, Remy's paper showing up enough to have the name written on it,] Lucifer. [Then to a pointed cat.] Figaro.

Video

[meowbel]

Ooohhh look at those kitties! That's not fair, how come you get not one but three?! You gotta tell me where you got them, I want a kitten so badly!!

[Especially when the pet adoption center doesn't even have cats!!]>

Video

[cajunspice]

They came from a planet awhile ago now, maybe a year or so back. They were the runts of the litter, not wanted, so I took them.

Different stops will have different pets at them sometimes. Got a large range on the Fleet now days. [Though maybe it wasn't a good idea to encourage a child to get a pet without any clue how responsible she is.]

Have you had pets before? [A good question to start with.]

Malum

[passingthrough]

[Kitty decided to buck the trend and get a job at this bar instead of the one where Vash and Remy worked. She's on shift when Remy walks in. She leans on the bar and smirks at him.]

Are we going to charades out your order? [Of course she caught the video earlier.]

Malum

[cajunspice]

[Of course she did. Taking a seat at the bar, Remy calmly flipped her off, before a smile breaking out on his face and he ran his palm over his face.

Yes, it was funny. It just would be funnier if it wasn't affect him. Or it wasn't taking away his ability to talk. He hated it. It was driving him stir crazy. He NEEDED to talk.

Pulling out his pen and paper again, Remy wrote his order.] Coke, bourbon, triple shot.

[passingthrough]

[She just smirks right through his gesture and then leans in to peer at the note.] You're no fun. That could have been hours of entertainment for us to work out. [She grabs the bourbon and pulls down a glass.]

[cajunspice]

How am I suppose to act that out?! [His note teamed up with a rather 'wtf?' expression, before Remy sent her a raised eyebrow and pretending to draw a line across the bar top and leaning down to 'snort' it.]

Coke? That work? [Was scribbled under the above words as he dropped the pen back down, giving a shake of his head... but also a bit of a smile. Yes, he really missed his voice, but he could still play up the dramatics as needed.]

[Video]

[mikangirl]

[Aw, you poor guy.]

I'm not gonna complain if you come into work, but I'd understand if you'd rather not.

[Video]

[cajunspice]

Just put me out the back with a bell or something so I can let you know I heard an order, or that one is ready. [That or Remy is going to go even more stir crazy than he already is. He needed to get out of the ship, it was a big reason he had taken on the job in the first place.

He tended to get into trouble when he was bored. And it would be a great distraction from what was happening.]

[Video]

[mikangirl]

Hey, a bell would be good for the kitchen anyway. We'll pick one up. [No arguments on working-- she understands being busy as well.]

This happened to one of my crew a few months back. It didn't last long.

[Video]

[cajunspice]

[Remy made the sign of the cross against his body before crossing his fingers, though it was ended with a roll of his eyes. Sure, he liked to joke and say Lady Luck was on his side, but that tend to run for life or death situations and card games more than normal life. And no doubt there would be a need for him to play up his body language more, just to be able to communicate without words and to not drive him completely insane by not being able to express himself.]

I can only hope. That or going to need more paper.

YOU HAVE A CAT. [Death sounds almost happy when he says this.] I CAN COME OVER, IF YOU WOULD LIKE. I FOUND A BOOK ABOUT BAKING AND TRIED MY HAND AT SOMETHING CALLED GINGERBREAD.

video

[cajunspice]

[He did, didn't he? Interesting...] Actually, I have three cats. You're welcome to meet them sometime.

Gingerbread is really good, great for Christmas time. How did they turn out? Your shipmates like them?

video

[ultima_mortis]

[Death loves cats. They're his actual favorite animal above all others.]

I LEFT IT OUT IN THE KITCHEN WITH A NOTE EXPLAINING WHAT IT WAS. THUS FAR, IT REMAINS UNTOUCHED, BUT I'M ALSO GIVEN TO UNDERSTAND MY CREWMATES ARE BUSY MOST DAYS. I BELIEVE THE RECIPE WAS FOLLOWED TO SPECIFICATION AND INTENTION.

video

[cajunspice]

Baking is pretty easy to do with instructions, it works well with measurements and keeping to a plan. Once you're confident with it, then you can start experimenting with new ideas and mixing up options.

[Remy holds that up long enough for what he assumed would allow Death to read it, before writing another note and replacing it.] Feel free to come over, can trade some recipes and you can meet the three brats I got here.
