[ This is an unusual sight, really. Otabek has his chin resting on one of his palms, propped up. He looks pretty content. There's a hint of a smile there, too. He is pretty happy, right now. He's holding a pen in his other hand. He's working and taking notes. He clearly has some intention to make this at least a little bit about business. He scribbles a few notes for a few moments. You can hear a few meows in the background. A little black kitten is climbing up the back of his chair, and before he gets the chance to speak, this ball of fluff is making her way onto his head. He shifts his body, putting the kitten in his lap. Instead of taking notes, he is petting her as he talks. ]

Change can be such a great thing, in work and in life. I'm finding that some - well one - of these changes have made work easier. I'm feeling a little more inspired on the job.

[ Even though he hasn't even said that much, he feels like it is a lot. The kitten seems to get fidgety, and he whispers something to her. She climbs up onto the desk walks across the keyboard, blocking out the entirety of his webcam, before jumping off the desk. He watches her for a moment, turning in his chair and then back to the camera. He picks up his pen again.

Back to work. He has an easy time talking about work, at least. ]


But I have a couple of events I'd like to do over the next couple of months.

[ He even has a few things in mind for both of these. ]

The most important is a Halloween party at Element. It would be on Halloween. Costumes recommended - not required, though.

I don't celebrate it at home, but I know people love it, and my job is to ensure you have a good time. So if you have input I am welcome to it. I am letting everyone know now, and asking now, so there's plenty of time to plan and finalize everything.

[ With that. He reaches forward, about to turn off a camera. He pauses.]

Oh - and these kittens are getting so big. If anyone wants to visit them, I can make time.

Let me know.

[ And he turns it off. ]

[Did someone say a Halloween party?] Halloween? I'm so glad you mentioned that. What did you have planned, if I might ask?
somakemelaugh: (welcome to the parlor)

[personal profile] somakemelaugh 2017-10-01 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
So we do. I'm not quite up to speed on the ways of the modern world just yet, but I'd love to help with the decorations, if you need. What sort of music do you listen to for these parties?

I'm not even sure what Halloween is, if I'm being honest with you. Care to explain?

I also think I'd still like to take the kitten from when I visited. When would be best to be ready for him, by?

Any particular nights you were slating for it? I'll put in to have the night off to be sure. If anything I can be there to help you out with details if the need is there.

I'll double check that I have everything I need when I get back to my apartment just to be sure. Are you mostly available this week? My schedule is a bit sporadic so I'm not sure when will work best..

Aaah, Aiman! Hello little girl. She's getting so big, Otabek! [ Yuri's expression is glowing, and fond for a moment, before he blows out a soft breath, leaning forward and propping his arms up on the boards of the skating rink. He's dressed in his usual black training outfit- but, Yuri has noticed it's not quite fitting the same as it used to. The pants are a little too short, the shirt feeling just a hair tighter. Still, it's not worth replacing just yet. ]

Are we going to do a couples' costume? [ Yuri's eyes light up by the idea, and he has to drop his head against his arm to hide his grinning, to get himself under control, and to focus on the point that had stuck out most to him about this little announcement. ]

Really? You're going to advertise a Halloween party and think you can get away with not mentioning what else that day is? [ Yuri smiles, looking coy, his eyebrows raising as he bites his lower lip and smiles like the shit that he is. ] I don't think so, Otabek. [ And then, he switches to text. Figuring that it'll get the most attention. ]

ATTENTION EVERYONE, OTABEK'S BIRTHDAY IS OCTOBER 31ST AS WELL. BE THERE, OR BE FUCKING SQUARE!!!

[ Something swells in Yuri's chest at the other's reaction. The way Otabek tips forward, the way his hand covers his mouth, how he hides his smile and tries to disguise his blush. Yuri is all too attuned to the other's reactions to miss it, wanting to note every little thing- to pay attention to anything Otabek's willing to give him. If he had thought Otabek would be genuinely mad about him announcing his birthday, he wouldn't have done it, but... ]

Your birthday is a big deal to me. [ Yuri murmurs, suddenly shy, smiling a little awkwardly, hiding behind his hair and biting his lip, chewing on it as a blush spreads across his own cheeks. ] Because you're important to me. [ He says it quietly, it's hard to hear in the echo of the rink, over the noise of the other patrons, but- Yuri cares about Otabek enough to let him hear him say it. ]

I want to make it special for you. Not just another night on the job... [ Pushing his hair out of his face, Yuri rests his chin on his arm, smiling softly, even though he's still blushing, too. ] So we'll have to come up with a really cool couple's costume. Something that will really blow everyone away.

Awww, cute kitty!

[ But also— ]

Oh, Halloween! We don't really celebrate it where I'm from, either. I've always wanted to do Halloween!

[personal profile] bunnyhopped 2017-09-23 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
What's her name? I've been thinking about getting a pet, too... how'd you get her?

I guess it wasn't so much that we didn't have it, it's just - more of an American thing, you know? I'm from Korea. It caught on in some of the bigger cities but...

[ but wartime doesn't really lend itself to Halloween festivities, but that's not for this conversation! ]

So you're throwing a party at the club, then? I don't think I've been there. But I'll come!

Okay whoa, hold up.

[ he holds his hands out, eyes wide because--]

Why don't you celebrate Hallowe'en? It's literally a holiday based around free chocolate,

[ and creepy af shit, but let's not talk about that okay.]

I will totally help you out if you need it. And all I ask in return is that I get to pet kittens.
traansient: (who? me? never!)

[personal profile] traansient 2017-09-25 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)
...well then, you should probably celebrate it at least once in order to make up for all the insanity you have missed out on.

[ and seriously, he looks offended that you forgot about the chocolate. rude. that is like, the whole point. (no it's not, not even close, but it's the only important part if you ask him).]

Well good thing I reminded you. I am so going to help you out, clearly you need it wow. I think at this point just making sure that it is the best Hallowe'en gathering is almost better than petting cats. Almost.

[ p a u s e]

Where can one find and pet said kittens though. I mean...

[personal profile] ragnarsson 2017-09-27 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
Two questions. What is Halloween? And when can you make time so I can see those kittens?

[He likes animals, alright? Ivar wouldn't have three Pokemon if he didn't. It's one of his redeeming qualities.]
ragnarsson: ([18.8] You've got a better idea)

[personal profile] ragnarsson 2017-10-04 08:39 am (UTC)(link)
Huh. Sounds a lot like Vetrnætr back home. It's a holiday that happens when summer turns into winter. We sacrifice animals. We use masks that are used to scare away monsters and ensure a good harvest.

[Vikings are basically ancient hipsters. They celebrated all major modern holidays first.]

I'll make some time. Is it alright if I bring Winter? I want her to get used to animals.

[Getting used to animals meant she could learn not to drain them, which in turn would learn not to do the same thing to people.]
