[video] July 16th: Employment Opportunities [cw: sex work/prostitution]

[yakiniku]

[Hanzo is positioned in the same way in front of the camera as he was the last time he had to make a message like this, but this time his hair is overgrown and white, but he has the wild locks pushed over one shoulder making it seem just a bit neater.]

Hello again. This is Hanzo Shimada.

Last month I asked if there would be any interest in a brothel catering to Moonblessed, and while there were a lot of people who did not understand or did not approve of the concept, there were also those who did show interest. Some who were not interested also voiced approval for the idea.

So on the first day of this month's triple moon cycle, I would like to announce the opening of Flux. We are located on Level 3.

We have job openings for paid moonlacing partners as well as security personnel. Please let me know if you are interested, and I will provide more information to you. Otherwise if you have questions, I have time to answer them.

Thank you.

[Before ending the video, he leaves his desk to go to the outside of the building for a good shot of the entrance should anyone prefer speaking with him in person instead.]

More than my own success, I hope that the business does well enough to help people and continue operations.

[This is Hanzo’s voice trying to sound natural when he is internally declaring how cute Japan looks with antlers.]

I would invite you to spend some time here but as of the moment I am the sole employee, but in time that will be fixed. You look well, though.

I did not know you were Iris.

[nihonkoku]

Your success is the success of the business, isn’t it?

[ he flushes at the kind-of-invitation, and that sure is dappling at his hairline and down his throat. to be entirely honest with himself, if he were to visit, it would be to see hanzo, not someone else. ] Perhaps I’ll stop by to say hello, at least.

[ his hand lifts to gingerly touch the base of an antler, then tries not to squirm as he’s reminded how sensitive that spot is. ]

Mm. I suppose we haven’t had the opportunity to talk during our.. cycles before now. I look a little silly.

[yakiniku]

Not necessarily. The business has successfully began, but at the same time I have spent my savings of chroma making it happen and I am exhausted.

[He's not complaining, just trying to explain. The time, effort, and chroma he put into making it happen is more than worth it in his opinion.]

I would appreciate it if you stopped by for a while. Even just to talk. [Hanzo notices the response when Japan inadvertently touches his antlers and his interest is piqued. His ears seem to perk up in that moment, giving away that he's fascinated by that reaction.]

You look fine. I just hope you do not mind all this..hair. [He gestures to it all.]

[nihonkoku]

I should imagine that you are. Do you.. [ well, really japan, spit it out. ] That is, I don't mind helping you to.. recover. A bit. Should I stop in to see you, that is. [ a beat, considering how that must sound, and he glances away. ] Not.. That is, there are so many ways to do so, after all.

[ but his glance returns in time to catch the flick of those ears, and for a second there, he really struggles not to just die. .. the animal ears people sport throughout the month are so cute..

cute, and yet given hanzo, his personality and looks in general, well.. they're more..... sexy? oh dear. ]

Hanzo-- [ a small huff of laughter. ] The hair is certainly a distraction, but not.. a bad one.

[yakiniku]

[Hanzo's head tilts to one side in interest at the question. He shakes his head, nearly laughing.]

Feel free to stop by. It has been slow. I have my brother helping temporarily until everything is going more smoothly. So I have time if you want to talk for a while. I assure you, there is no need to do much of anything. I should get my strength back with time. [But he won't turn Japan down if he insists on being helpful. Either way, he'd like to see him.]

A good distraction, then? You might change your mind in person, so I will leave that free for you to do if you realize you are not so fond of wolves.

[nihonkoku]

Is he? Maybe I'll have the chance to meet him while I'm there. [ if only because he's been intrigued by what kind of person hanzo's brother might be. ] I'll try to stop in this afternoon, then.

[ his lips quirk up, head tilting faintly. ] Well.. wolves hunt deer, I suppose, but I think I'll be safe enough.

[yakiniku]

I look forward to seeing you.

[The last remark is true, but he's curious how Japan can be so sure about that. Hanzo, of course, has no intentions of hunting him, but some people tended to be more cautious around Sanguis because of the aggression. He wouldn't blame him for it.]

Thankfully no hunting is required of me when the deer agrees to pay the wolf a visit.

[nihonkoku]

[ his lips quirk up, and he crooks his index finger over them as if to hide the amusement. ]

That sounds a bit like the beginning of an interesting fairy tale.

[yakiniku]

One that hopefully does not end with the Big Bad Wolf being put down.
