Video | un: draconus

[The video feed starts and at first you see a wall, then the camera moved until it is focused on Draco Malfoy. Hair combed into place and his appearance neat. Though out of the camera's view is a different story...

Draco looks a bit uncomfortable but puts on a good front, smiling. The camera isn't all that steady as he holds it at first. He's not used to this.]

Hello populace of Riverview. I am Draco Malfoy and I have recently accepted the position of Community Ambassador. As such I wanted to greet all fo you, and was informed this was the best way to do so.

[Time to make yourself seem more approachable now, Draco...]

Forgive me if this isn't the best use of this means of communication, I am still learning. I will look to you all for guidance in the coming days as I learn about our city. It is my goal to help all new arrivals as well as everyone in residence currently. I want to see our economy grow and our new home prosper.

Please, do not hesitate to introduce yourself to me. Also, please come to me with any concerns or issues you may have. I will endeavor to try and help you either myself, or at least get you in contact with those who can. I look forward to working with you all.

[Another smile appeared on his lips, seemingly genuine. And really, it is. More genuine than the first as he gained more confidance as he spoke. Easily falling into the role of a public speaker. It wasn't all that different from the way he'd been educated in and the circles he had run in before. It also helped that no one here knew him and his past.]

Gives the real thing to look forward to. [Izzy can't quite hold back the laugh of her own. She has always been the social Lightwood.

That and encouraging. She hasn't been ignoring the negative responses to Draco's video, and announcement. She's always been a firm believer that you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar, though, personally. The responses to the video are varying thus far, after all, but the blonde Brit does seem to be handling his own, so she can't help but mentally give him props there.

And the position, period, can be one to make a difference. That's really what matters, especially considering what he's said--extrapolating on the role that he'll fill thus far.] Well, some people don't want to be pleased anyway. [Izzy shrugs, a bit of amusement pulling at her face because she knows that it's the truth. No matter what you do some people will find something to complain about. So far, he seems to get what a position like this needs. So, there's hope for newcomers, which is nice.]

Just keep the realistic attitude that you'll do what you can for this place and I think you'll be doing great. [Izzy grins, exuding confidence. She means what she says, at that.] You set the precedent for the role, anyway, so you're only competing with yourself that I know of. [She's not sure if that helps or not, but she punctuates her point with a dainty shrug. She doesn't regret getting on the network today.]

I will keep your words in mind, for you are as wise as you are lovely.

[Draco kept his response short and sweet, not wanting to hold the conversation in public for much longer. It was far too easy to fall into flirting with her, and he did not want to seem quite so flirtatious. Still, he couldn't help that last parting comment.]

[Izzy can't quite help herself. Yeah, she didn't intend to flirt overtly, but really one can't help these sorts of things when they happen. It's only natural, of course.] See, I knew I was right to like you, you're definitely a smart man.

[The shadowhunter gives a wink.] Good luck, though, and if you ever need any volunteers to spring ideas off of or to get any projects done once you get settled in and find a rhythm let me know.

[Draco chuckled, his interest in this young woman only growing. He was going to have to search her out to see if she is indeed as harming in person.]

I certainly will, Isabelle.
