[The boy on screen might not look too familiar to most on the network, maybe because he doesn't really get out much, outside of his little circle of acquaintances. But if you've seen him once, he's pretty hard to forget, between the bicolored hair and heterochromatic eyes, and of course the giant scar on the left side of his face.
He looks pretty serious, but then, he always looks pretty serious, if he doesn't look tired.]
After everything that happened last month--[He stops short, biting his lips and breathing out through his nose before trying again.]
...I guess that isn't really right, though.
After everything that happened last month, and everything that's been happening for as long as I've been here, I've made up my mind to join the Moon Knights. I'd been holding off because I wasn't sure about swearing my loyalty to a planet that isn't mine, but after everything the Lunatians have suffered through because of us, everything they've done for us, I think we owe them something. Or at least I feel like I do.
I'm not asking permission, or looking for recognition or praise or anything. I just wanted to know if there are any other Moonblessed out there who've joined, or anyone else who's on the younger end of their application range who's looking to take the exam. My combat skills are good, and I've been studying medicine, but it's not just about how well you fight or if you can set a broken leg, here. I'd like to hear from others who've already joined about what to expect, and what else I should be studying. And if there's anyone else who's planning on joining, too, maybe we can train together. Let me know.
[And after one last pause and a brief flicker of what looks like hesitation, he shrugs a shoulder and adds one last thing, before the video ends:]
...I'm Shouto. If we haven't met, yet.

[What's going on with his screen? Surely that's just a weird reflection, right? Katsuki can't possibly be blushing, just like Shouto is obviously not teasing him. Totally.]
Sure, works for me. See you in a bit.
no subject
[Shouto would never tease him. And Katsuki would never care about what he thought or wanted.]
Whatever.
