💍 video

Hey there, fellow Lunatians.

[ Though the video shows an older man with silver in his hair and gravel in his voice, he is apparently tech savvy enough to operate the camera without any shaking of the frame or a blurring of the focus. Good for him!

He is slouched forward on his couch, which seems necessary to get the totality of his very long body in the shot, and his stubbled face is an unreadable mask of casual neutrality. ]


I'm posting here tonight because I've got a message for someone who's grown very special to me since we arrived here on Prismatica. This beautiful woman right here -

[ He pulls out another device, which looks something like a translucent-screened iPhone, and uses it to show off a photo to the recording camera. ]

You may know her as Winter Schnee, the Ice Queen, or maybe just that potential alien pod person who recently uploaded a 20 minute formal presentation on terms and negotiations for casual, no-strings-attached frotting for Chroma. If you're relatively new to the planet and missed out on that, well that's a shame because it was really something. If you're lucky, maybe you'll be able to dig it up in the archives.

Anyway, my message is this. More of a question, really.

[ With an enigmatic smile, Qrow stands from the couch, only to stoop to a crouch on one knee as he produces from his pocket a small, wooden box which soon takes up most of the frame. The box opens to reveal two gorgeously polished Eternal Rings of Promise, identically crafted gleaming bands of steel inlaid with a decidedly otherworldy blue wood. ]

Winter Schnee, would you do me the honor...



...of giving these damn power buffing rings to your sister already, so you can stop giving me heart attacks by soliciting completely random weirdos over the network for sex?

[ End video. ]

Well given Qrow's presentation the implication is you're not in that category, correct me if I'm wrong.

We are talkin' about you here, aren't we?

I suggest you speak more respectfully.

[She's not certain if 'that' category is referring to Qrow's implications that she's whoring herself around, or if he means that she is indeed someone who'd prefer a serious commitment. Either way, he's overstepping his boundaries.]

[A little from column A, a little column B! All he knows of her is what Qrow just posted here--frankly he'd rather not get too entangled or personally involved in their affairs--and he's trying to not outright insult her since the former did a fine enough job of that publicly already... but also, maybe the white hair and haughty attitude reminds him a old heartache and headache enough he can't help but push buttons.]

Suggestion heard. Didn't answer my question though.

I have no obligation to answer your questions. Neither response would be relevant to your interests in any case.

[He laughs.] Now who said that?

You don't know a thing about my interests at all.

[personal profile] specialist_snowflake 2019-10-08 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
If your interest is to be adamantly refused, then you are correct. I don't know your interests.

[Tai almost choked when he heard the first part of the message, for a second he had thought that Qrow was really. . . when it finished he couldn't help but laugh.]

She's going to kill you. But it was a pretty effective way to get her to listen.

[THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A JOKE HE DIDN'T THINK THIS WOULD GO ANYWHERE for all he knows she could still totally stand him up if he even asks lord why is he thinking of asking this what is even her and Qrow's deal this is probably a bad idea but fuck it, if Qrow can hold his drinks maybe his hot lady friend can too--]

Busan's, level 3, tomorrow 1900 hours if you care to find out. After you're done doing whatever it is you're gonna' do with Qrow.

[Worst case he's drinking alone and that's just another night for him. He'll end the feed preemptively and leave the ball in her court.]

[personal profile] specialist_snowflake 2019-10-09 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
[She's left holding her communicator, staring at a blank screen. She made it quite clear that she wasn't interested. Rebuffed his flirtations. Winter even downright insulted him.]

[And he's asking her out.]


...................WHAT?!

[She's left alone with her impotent rage.]

So you like em regimented, huh? Does she create a power point for your dates and schedule at what point you will kiss her and hold her hand?

That's getting off pretty easy. If it had been Raven you'd be lucky if the building was still standing.

Need a place to crash while they work on fixing them?

I'm so conflicted on whether to applaud you or fear for your life. But have some virtual golf claps.

As someone who has been on the giving end of a messy proposal in the past, I hope you realize this will forever taint any true proposal you decide to make in the future.

Careful with that sort of thinking.

I certainly didn't expect I'd end up a married man.

With looks like that, you could have fooled me. Certainly 40 is a bit young to consider wanting death, though.

My career isn't any safer - and both I and my spouse are in the same line of work. Marriage isn't all about settling with someone on some chocobo farm for the rest of your carefree days. Sometimes it's as simple as acknowledging a bond you share.

If you say so.

Thanks, though. I miss him. He would have found this rather funny.
