[003 | VIDEO] morning of the 18th

[spah]

[It's early, and Engineer has his communication bracelet's video screen leaned up against his bathroom mirror.

Engie himself looks... different. Aside from being in an undershirt with an expression that says "just woke up," he's also sporting stark white whiskers, not unlike barbels, sticking out from under his beard. Two strands flow out neatly on either side of his cheeks, almost matching the direction of his growth.

Along with that, there's new scales on his bare shoulders in patches of black, white, orange, and a little bit of blue. He holds up a beard trimmer, and you can barely see flowing, sheer-like white fins under his arms.

Basically, he's a koi now.]

Anybody got tips on how to shave 'round fish whiskers?

[If you haven't heard Engineer speak before, that's a pretty thick Texan accent.

He chuckles sleepily and rubs one eye with his other hand. He's really tired. Don't ask why.]

Hell, how do y'all do regular, everyday things 'round the animal bits? Honest-to-god question. Might as well make this Lunatia's talkin' point for the morning.

Fish whiskers! That's a new one, friend.

[ That's---a curious looking purple fellow. But he might have some helpful advice, check out those spiralling horns. ]

You may just want to wait them out.

As for every day things and animal bits, I'm rather attached to mine full time, so you learn to manage. Eventually.

You may want to ask someone for a straight razor job though; I imagine they'd be much more careful than---whatever that is.

text; also, fuck it my inbox can suffer

[ Someone's forgoing video for now, given her last little slip up in person. Still embarrassed, don't @ her. ]

I don't personally know either.

If anyone who responds also knows how to keep a comb from catching on scales, I'd also like to hear it; it's not a pleasant sensation.

Well thankfully with me, all of my stuff is concentrated on my back so I just wear backless shirts a lot for about two weeks or so a month.

Now you on the other hand... that's a little more tricky.

Never seen this before. People were turning into dragons, but, uh.

You're kind of cute like that, actually.
