✨ Video ☆ UN: Mr. Swift ✨
[It’s a rough world to be in for someone who is unfamiliar with the technology and is lacking the attention span to keep at it. But he's nothing if not determined! As a result some of those tuning into this network post might notice how scripted the attached video sounds. All due to the fact that it's been recorded then trashed several times until a good take was captured.]
[As for the man caught on film he looks so old-timey circus it ought to be a parody. But it isn't.]
It’s my birthday today! 'Why is that important' you may ask? Because you don’t know me and certainly I don’t know you. Well, let me tell you!
[The video pans away from the smiley individual to a cake that looks quite like this and then back. If Mike hadn't been raised in the circus he might've been destined to be a chef.]
Now I’ve gone ahead and baked this cake. But I've only recently arrived so I don’t have enough people here that I can share it with. Now isn’t that just something? It’s a real problem I have on my hands. So, I need some volunteers.
[The perspective settles on the counter so he can point directly at the camera. You, yes you, imaginary audience member.]
But there’s a catch! You’ve got to introduce yourself and let me know what you lot do around here for fun. It’s a fair trade, I think.

[Anyone else would say "alien," but Kamui takes exception to that particular word. Aliens are mindless monsters. Amanto are intelligent and humanoid.]
And the Yato Clan are the strongest amanto around.
Most of us work as mercenaries. I'm a pirate.

-But I recently met an insect man! So I guess that all bets are off.
[He's so cheery while admitting that he doesn't trust.]
Oh, oh, what's it like being a pirate?
no subject
As a pirate, I can make enemies of the entire universe if I want to. I can fight whoever I want as much as I want. I can see what types of strength every planet has to offer and then challenge that strength until I'm satisfied.
What's it like not being a pirate? Is it as tedious as it sounds?
[Look, he genuinely doesn't know. He joined the Harusame Pirates at eight years old. How other people have fun is beyond him.]

[Was. Was the circus life.]
But I've got to ask: you're not putting on a character here are you? Or is that just your way of making friends? Because that sounds very tiring!
[and needlessly violent. Listen buddy Mike's reckless but even he is starting to wide-eyed. Is this stranger danger?]
no subject
A character? [He hums thoughtfully and taps his chin.] Like when overhyped Earthlings start doing impressions to make each other laugh? Not at all. I'm just doing what I'm good at.
Your circus life is never dull. Well, a day when I can really let loose is never dull either.
