01 ★ video

[spellspeak]

[When the video turns on Natsume appears to be outside on the street somewhere, standing in front of a darkened building. It's... A little creepy actually, not at all helped by the fact that he's wearing a dark robe.]

Good NIGHT~ ★ While I have made myself known to some of you there are just as many whom I am not acquainted WITH, so allow me to introduce mySELF.

[He curls his fingers in the air, something like green light seeming to glow around them just briefly before he places his hand to his chest dramatically.]

My name is Natsume Sakasaki, and I am a magician and fortune tellER. In my endeavor to enrich the lives of those here with the allure of enchantment and the occult I ask you to allow me to announce the opening of Chymica Esoterica!

[He grins and snaps his fingers. Instantly the building behind him lights up, revealing what appears to be a small shop. The windows are hung with tasteful string lights and somehow candles seem to be flickering inside, although it's hard to tell exactly through the curtains that are made of some shimmery and slighty-sheer fabric.]

In addition to offering my services as an advisor and fortune teller I also can provide you with brews of all SORTS, as well as items to grant your own special magic power for a short WHILE. If you happen to be of the more discerning and particular type I would even be open to making something special just for YOU.

I now welcome any quesTIONS, but until then let all enjoy the darkness and stars of the evening together until we meet aGAIN...

[Natsume winks and waves before snapping his fingers again and the video ends.]

[THIS GUY has rushed over to where Natsume's shop is, dressed in dark and foreboding clothes, and he'd look like he fit right in if he wasn't running up waving a lace-edged black handkerchief and making sounds suspiciously like he's been crying.]

Natsume-kun!!!

[He whirls, and summarily adorns the threshold with a shower of rose petals, all of the deepest purple and red.]

Congratulations on your successful business venture! Show me your wares!

[inuko]

[ There's so much more magic around here than back home, but the reason he ends up replying, just a guy looking at his comm with a furrowed brow, is because: ]

Is there something up with your voice?

[ He can't tell what it is, but he sure talks... oddly? Shino's got enough "magic" going on himself, he's not worried about adding more in, but... what?! ]

[betheirstrength]

What kind of fortune telling do you do? Palm reading? Tarot? Stones?

[kayssistant]

Woooow, it looks so amazing! [Kay is awed at this display.] So I'll be able to see you do more magic when I drop by?

[strayknight]

[Watching the video he smirks as Natsume shows off his goods. He was impressed the other got the shop up and running so quickly...then again it might have been taking more time than he knows.]

Impressive, looks like you got it all together.

[Makoto enjoyed watching Natsume's video. Of course, his unit was about magic, and placing it in the video was an eye catcher. It was an entertaining video. He was happy that Natsume got his shop up and running. He couldn't wait to visit.]

Hi Natsume! Congratulations on your shop! I was wondering how many teas do you sell?

[ of course hajime couldn't help but be impressed by this--all of it honestly! practically spellbound before he finally gets a chance to reply ]

That was an amazing performance senpai, but I guess nothing less would be fitting of someone like you.

Congratulations on opening up your shop, it looks really nice! But with this kind of description, are you perhaps relying on herbs to help others out? That seems like such a great idea... I'm sure your business will flourish if that's the case!

walks in 3 days late with starbucks--

[dollorous]

Ah, you did have hobbies like this, didn't you.

[It's not really Shu's thing but what's he gonna do? NOT support Natsume in everything he does? Sounds fake.]

Still, be careful not to take on any requests you find especially suspicious. Though I understand the desire to inflict curses, or perhaps even to poison someone just to watch them writhe in agony...

[It's been 4 seconds so it's time to hatemail Eichi]

...if someone were to use you and the things you love for such foul activities, not even hell would be punishment enough for them.
