( VIDEO. 002 ) @2cool — BACKDATED: 07/17

[glitterpants]

<sub>[ Despite being relatively quiet on the network, Karamatsu has been keeping up to date with what has been happening in Riverview. Well, what was important to him, anyway, and what was important to him was the fact there was going to be a masquerade this week. Going to bed every night and knowing there are people out there who don't have perfect fashion for this sort of thing was making him feel determined, and dare I even say.. proactive.

Unfortunately, when Karamatsu becomes inspired, it's usually pretty bad.
Today, he's dressed in this and seems awfully proud of it.

He strikes a pose, spreading the wings out to show off all of the colors with an exclamation of "bang!" which is nothing like the sound a bird should make (was he bird or just being extra??? we just don't know.) Then, he relaxes, cupping his chin with one hand. ]</sub>

Heheh. It seems there's going to be a party on Saturday. If you want to look as perfect as me, I will be happy to help and tailor you an outfit if you do not have one. Please, no payment is necessary. Take it as kindness from my own heart, as I do not want anybody to have an insufficient costume for such an event.
Thank you.
_{[ And that's it? He also ruined his identity by posting this early, but hey, that's fine. ]}

[He had a response, he swears. He had fully intended to have a point here. But oh my god, that costume... he opens his mouth to snark and just starts laughing.

And laughing.

At least it's a happy laugh? Not his usual condescending snickers.]

_{[ Karamatsu, bless him. He has no idea why Dodger would be laughing. But laughing is good, right? He's hesitant, there's a few uneasy 'heh's' and 'hah's' and then he starts laughing too. ]}

A-ah, you're in better spirits today!
_{[ He sees who's name is on the other line... he's certain he's never heard Dodger laugh before. ]}

[smokedout]

I guess I ended it catching the friendliness around here....

[He's still speaking through small fits of laughter. But really... he seems pretty relaxed. Even his snark ends up sounding friendly when it finally comes.]

The hell is that outfit supposed to be?

...

[Just a still image of your not-dad staring out at this fucking mess of a network post, with a completely blank look on his face.

Yes, his face--which can be seen for now, looking... not as dead as usual, oddly.]

...Sometimes, I have these lapses in judgement where I think you can't get any more over the top.
And then you do something to prove me wrong.

It's very flashy, isn't it? Heh, I think I could do more to make it more eye-catching, but I ran out of sequins!

_{[ Wait a moment... ]}

[glitterpants]

Reaper-san? Is that you? Or somebody else using your username?

[hellshot]

...

You don't have to sew in more sequins to an outfit to make it more flashy. [fool.]

That aside...

It's me.

That kid Eichi gained some strange powers here.

[And healed his face up, for now.]

How many birds did you kill for that.

[glitterpants]

Do not worry... i am a humane man! I love all of the creatures.. even the birds... they are not real feathers please do not fret.

They are that realistic though hm?

[bunnyblock]

Couldn't tell, what with how we're on an alien planet.

I wouldn't call them realistic, if you're trying to attract another bird.

[neyouze]

... Is that what's in style around here?

[ sometimes he really doesn't understand humans...... ]

[glitterpants]

_{[ Even if he was on video, Karamatsu wouldn't be entirely put off by the fact a cat was talking to him. After all, Ichimatsu's cat talked for awhile. ]}

Of course! I know all about men's fashion.
_{[ He may know a lot, but does he understand what he knows? Absolutely not. ]}

[neyouze]

[ one day, he can find out... for now, morgana's just trying to spare himself some headaches. ]

If you say so. You did say it was a party... I guess... [ ... ] It's a costume party, right? You're not just wearing that?

congrats on finally finding the rainbow connection kermit

[glitterpants]

Thank you!! i have been looking my entire life
_{[ honestly he's sweating profusely cause he has no idea what Dave is talking about. ]}

[chumpelstiltskin]

just like woodstock has been looking for that outfit since the 60s
good thing you found it under the couch with the remnants of some tropical birds that have been decaying for god knows how long

but i like it
its a visual remake of despair

[dendera]

I am confused.
[Which is not that uncommon since he can still barely understand how to use the technology here.]

You are offering tailoring, yet it is clear by your dress that you are to be one of the performers at this event. Unless parties have changed dramatically since my time, it is surely not expected for all the guests to dress as if they were the entertainment. That would be inconvenient as well as pointless.
[He's not even trying to drag Karamatsu here, this is all entirely sincere.]

[glitterpants]

_{[ good god what a stick in the mud. ]}

I suppose if you wanted to look boring.. you could wear something less extravagant.
_{[ Same thing. Karamatsu isn't trying to drag Oz down in any way; he's also being sincere! ]}

I only offer clothing and work that is my signature-- my style!
_{[ whatever that was.. ]}

[dendera]

[Excuse you.... he's no stick in the mud. How dare you even think such a thing, Karamatsu.]

Boring! [Yeah, he is offended.] There is a a place in between "boring" and the garish monstrosity you are wearing! As Pharaoh, of course I would dress finer than the common people, but I would not go as far as to look a clown as you have chosen to do.

[Now he is being intentionally rude, because HOW DARE YOU.]

[willinglychanged]

[Drew's head pops up looking confused, not because this guy is dressed like a bird but because of what he's saying.] Wait are y'sayin' that we need some kinda specific outfits to be able to go to this thing? [Because Drew thought he was just going to wear plaid.]

[glitterpants]

_{[ Oh. Looks like somebody here isn't much of a party goer (or he is.. but its different kinds of parties.) Karamatsu hasn't gone to many parties before because he hasn't really been invited to many. It's different here in Riverview! Everyone is so open with their invitations. ]}

Heh, well.
I suppose you wouldn't have to.. but don't you want to stand out? It's a masquerade, also! You'll need something to cover your face.

[bottombitch]

Pffahaha! [ Aoba's losing it, this costume is ridiculous - just to be expected of someone like Karamatsu-kun. ]

You've totally revealed your disguise! You might as well forego the mask at this point, Karamatsu-kun.

[glitterpants]

_{[ Oh no. He visibly jolts, adjusting his posture. ]}

Ah, non non. it is.. all apart of my plan, you see!
_{[ a plan? What plan. His signature is to have no plan, so what is all of this plan talk? ]}

@ny4n arrives seven days late

[ichimyatsu]

if i thought anyone else in this place had the fashion sense of a blind drag queen i'd say you're about to get taken way the fuck advantage of offering free tailoring.
thankfully for all of those with sight, most people will know better.

ur always late

[glitterpants]

I don't suppose you picked out something for this masquerade, hah?
If you have, please share i am awfully curious to see what you've come up with.
_{[ because, y'anno, ur gonna go whether u like it or not, my dude. ]}
