[ the video opens with a man sitting at a desk. he paints quite an odd picture - looks to be in his mid-thirties, with long dark hair, wearing a black vest with a white shirt under it, rolled up to his elbows. odd tattoos cover his arms and move up the front of his neck as well.

he clears his throat, and a deep voice speaks. ]

Good evening. For those of you who don't know me, my name is V.

I'm looking for people interested in a wine and arts night. Specifically, right now I'm seeking those willing to work as instructors for painting, drawing, and other such mediums, for a modest group of people. I can provide the supplies for such hosting, as well as the space. I'm even prepared to provide monetary pay if that's a sticking point for performing the instructing.

I'm also seeking people willing to pose as models, once I've secured the instructors. And of course, knowing what kind of interest people would have in attending such a thing.

[ he reaches a hand up to brush his hair back. it's starting to get long; someone should tell him about hair bands. ]

I'm looking to host this at least once a month. We seem to lack an entry level experience for the art forms here, and I'd like to change that. And I don't think most people would turn up a chance for some good wine.

[ he smirks a bit. ]

You can respond to this post or contact me privately. [ he provides his contact information. ]

It's Goro Akechi. What about you?

[And he'll send a list consisting of adhesive backed vinyl sheets, craft knives, scissors, sketching supplies, tape, and thick gloves for anyone nervous about having their fingers near the knife blade while cutting.

Midna -- the one you saw in my paintings -- will surely be enthusiastic. As she is my muse, she will surely enjoy others also gazing upon her and recreating her beauty upon a canvas.

When do you intend to begin these evenings? I will make certain to attend.

[jamjarnpc]

You can count on me for that. [She puts a hand on her chest.] Meteora Österreich.

[Gotta get the introductions out of the way and all that jazz.]

Yes, basic every day objects like that are no issue. Bigger, more complicated things like planes would be more trouble, and unique magical gadgets I can't do. But I don't think we'll need those here, unless there's some kinda of magic-powered paint I haven't heard about.

[SHE WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED!]

DEMANDING!!! FISHERMAN SUPLEXES???

[torsion]

Of course. You know I work Special Ops, right? So I wouldn't dream of asking you about that sort of thing. If you ever need a little muscle or someone skilled with explosives and locksport, though, please let me know. ;)

I'd like to think I am! I've only used it once, myself, as an advertisement mostly so I understand. I don't really enjoy using it but it seems like the easiest way to connect.

I prefer to talk to people in person.

[ She hasn't. Why was he kept in her closet? Hmm... Gonna go grill her. ]

[envoyoftwilight]

[Thanks for the exposure, Yusuke.]

I do modelling for Kitagawa. I could be convinced to lend my assistance for your little gathering.

[She says she could be convinced, but. She just means that Yusuke didn't need to give her much incentive. She likes attention. Please give her attention.]

[penpoint]

Well, some people are genius, some work hard. It doesn't invalidate the other, of course.

Well, I'll make a point of stopping in. I hope you do, as well. I'm curious to see what happens.

[mysophobic]

[ But he feels so bad having to make her accommodate him like this. Ugh this is the worst. ]

I feel bad...having you make accommodations for me. But if you're sure it wouldn't be too much trouble then I would appreciate that. He's really cute too! I wish I could pet him...

[ Shigeru please!! One day he will be able to cuddle and pet all animals, one day! ]

I'll be sure to bring over some food too, does anyone have any allergies?

[cadeuces]

( One Day he'll also learn that she well and truly doesn't mind in the least. In fact: )

I'm happiest when the people I care about and those around me are comfortable. I'll never consider the actions taken to make that possible a hassle. And that goes for you, as well, Shigeru. You're my friend.

Maybe if you come over some time for his first bath, it can be one of the goals on your list and you can catch him while he's still a soft little thing. His parents were quite large so I'm sure it won't last too long, haha.

As for allergies, you won't need to worry. Dante has an aversion to anything that isn't Italian, but he has plenty to eat so you don't need to worry about him.

( Sorry, hubby. )

Did you have something particular in mind?

[spah]

Nah. I'm pretty familiar with who I made it for. She's definitely skilled enough.

[vanum]

[He called her a goat???]

yeah but you had to eat or drink something for those so as long as i don't do that

[No, he doesn't grasp the problem with that.

Oh, shit. V. OH SHIT, V.]

what if you get most of your chroma during iris?????

[peerlesscucumber]

It does enhance the potential for any one student to truly learn.

Weathering the strange storms this city finds itself in the eye of far too often. Yourself, V?

[intwained]

You're exactly right about that. Hard work will be needed for either style, I believe. No one is ever perfect.

Oh, I shall absolutely be there. I'm curious to see the offerings and styles that we have.

[intwained]

[ he gives a gentle hum when she says it explains a bit. ]

Some things for sure. And the rest, well - we've discussed that his anger is justified.

[ and at her question, he smiles, shaking his head. ]

I should be fine, but thank you, Angela.

[intwained]

The pleasure of meeting you is all mine, Meteora.

[ at her stipulations, he gives a gentle laugh. ]

I think we will keep it to things like chairs or canvasses, I promise. I know there is a chroma-powered paint - it glows when you moonlace - but I don't think that will suit our painting purposes, thankfully.

[intwained]

I will keep it in mind. The man who runs the location goes by the name of Zohvin, if you've ever seen him around. He's quite distinctive.

[ he's blue. ]

Then you and I are of a mind. I prefer to make my connections in person, though it is useful for asking for help, as you said.

[intwained]

Much the same, I am afraid. The weather has not been good for my knees, but now that we seem to be warming up, I expect that to pass.

There have been some... changes in home, as of late. If you remember the man we discussed, Vergil, he has left this place.

[intwained]

Then perhaps you might face being a deer or bunny of some kind in the future.

[ :) ]

But, honestly, no one knows why people change moonblessings. These are only theories, Dante.

[intwained]

It's V.

[ no distinction of first or last - just v, apparently. he takes down the list, humming. ]

Thank you, Goro. I hope to plan to get the first session set up soon, once I discuss everyone's schedules. As a heads up, I do not plan on having dual sessions just yet, but if we get quite the turnout that might change.

Re: video;

[intwained]

Midna. I will reach out to her for sure.

[ well she's already on the post by this point but it's ok v. ]

My hope is to have the first one set up by the end of this month, and to continue them regularly after that, either every month or every two weeks if demand is high enough.

[ v gives a little nod as greeting, a small smile on his face. ]

I have seen his paintings of you before - you're quite the lovely model. It's a pleasure to see you in person.

I would be glad to have your assistance. If you need any sort of compensation for modeling as well, that's something I'm glad to discuss too.

[mysophobic]

I don't think so, no. But if anything comes up I'll be sure to let you know!

It's hard to really say when the moon cycles are involved, but I'll do my best to try and notify you or Angela if anything happens. [ After all they live together so she can tell V if anything does happen. ]

[foolishjustice]

[A...strange name. Sounds self-assigned, better not to pry.]

That works fine for me, since I was considering keeping an eye out in case any of the media being taught seems interesting. I'm always happy to learn new skills.

[intwained]

Perfect. I'll note it down, then. And I look forward to learning from you in the future.

[mysophobic]

[ Ah she called him her...friend. How does he even respond to that?! He doesn't have many friends back home so it's weird to hear someone he's only just met calling him that!! ]

Thank you. I...really appreciate all you've done for me already.

And I would like that. He looks so cute and small it's amazing how big they can get! [ Shigeru loves dogs!! They're so cute but...also messy which is why he's never had one. But he doesn't mind watching them from afar. Maybe one day he'll actually be able to pet and play with one...maybe. ]

Italian...oh. I've heard of that. That's something from Earth, right? I could make something like that if you think people will like it!

[intwained]

Perfect. I'll be sure to mention it here and to reach out as well, once we have our first date set.

[ v is the most uncreative person in terms of naming himself, to be fair. ]
