[When the video clicks on, you can see Magnus setting up the camera, presumably on some kind of tripod, so that he can step back and give you a full-body shot of himself. There’s a concept here, a kind of Ted-Talk-y type thing, even if it’s not fully realized. Please forgive him. He’s new to technology. He’s trying his best.]

Hello, kind citizens! Okay, listen, I noticed something tragic about Riverview and this is what it is: we are hugely lacking in the sports department. You know, like, intramural type shit? Sorry, stuff. Intramural type stuff. Anyway. I, Magnus Burnsides, aim to change this. Not to brag or anything but I do have some experience coaching a sportsball team, so I figured: why not put my experience to good use? Who wants to play sports with me?

I want this thing to be a community effort. If you know how to play sports, come coach a team! Doesn’t matter what the sport is! If you don’t know anything about sports but you’re curious, come learn with us! It’s not about being good—it’s about doing the sports! I want people of all ages, people of all sports backgrounds. Also, maybe, someone who’s good at organizing stuff because I’m not very good at that. Anyway, let me know what you think! If anyone’s down to help out, send me a message!

[He ends the video bit with his hands on his hips Peter Pan style, a huge grin on his face. … And then he remembers he has to walk back to the camera in order to shut it off.]

well why didn't you just say so?
i can make you a jersey just for kicks and then if you need some team ones you can let me know.

(just for kicks is a pretty great name for an intramural soccer team if you decide to start one js)

an antihistamine is a drug you take to make allergy symptoms better for a little while
i don't really know the science i'm not a doctor

[ohhmrburnsides]

JUST FOR KICKS IS PERFECT i'm using that

If I knew you were so willing to make me a cool jersey I would've asked like a month ago. I want it to say BURNSIDES in big letters and I want my number to be 69.

[That one's kinda your fault Cisco. Like technically it's Taako's but you told Taako, so.]

So it's science magic stuff I'll never really understand, great.

[franciscoramon]

you're welcome

i'm the costumes guy. being the jersey guy isn't that much of a stretch.

did taako teach you about 69ing then?

2/2

[franciscoramon]

wait actually don't answer that
i didn't mean it like that
and also i don't wanna know
i will make you the jersey on the condition that we never speak of this

[ohhmrburnsides]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

ok yeah. you got it, bud. I'll take one 69 jersey, please.

[franciscoramon]

[ How does he get himself into these situations? How? And why is it always on the public network somehow? ]

I DIDN'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT

[spellslots]

I never pegged you for a perv

[ohhmrburnsides]

Is that another thing you need to teach me about?

[spellslots]

I was gonna leave it as a surprise

[franciscoramon]

i have never regretted anything in my life more than meeting you two

[spellslots]

Is this how it's gonna end? Our valuable friendship brought to ruins by the fact we caught you thinking about us fucking?

[franciscoramon]

sorry what was that i can't hear you over the sound of my regret

and you didn't CATCH anything okay it was unclear wording don't act like you didn't know what i meant

[spellslots]

Oh I know exactly what you meant 😉

And now everyone else does too! It's so brave of you to open up like this on the network

[ohhmrburnsides]

I forgot this thread was on the network! I was trying to keep it family-friendly! Thanks a lot, Cisco.

am I still getting that jersey

[spellslots]

I can't believe you've done this, Cisco

[Yes he is purely the one to blame.]
