[ 4 ] video; un: @altin ( early morning 11/1 )

[bringbackgold]

[ Otabek wants to post the video relatively early. There’s a calm when the video comes on. Otabek’s hair is is still fuzzy from having just woken up, having not been styled yet. There’s a sense of ease about him, too. While he’s normally pretty calm, it’s just different from what one normally sees from him. Also, it appears his laptop is set up in a different spot than normal. It’s on a kitchen table, and behind him is a counter, on it - a container with remnants of cake.

He’s wearing a tank top, but it’s not hiding the markings on his neck and shoulders. He finally speaks, but not without a small meow in the background from the little black cat who seems fond of making appearances. ]

Thank you for coming to the party last night. I was glad to see everyone. Also, as of yesterday --

[ A pause. ]

I’m nineteen. I don’t really celebrate birthdays. It was a good birthday, though. I’m curious...

[ Leans forward, is quiet. ]

What birthday traditions do you have?

[ He sits back. Clearly, his tone is about to change. Otabek never leaves it at one thing. ]

Also... As you may or may not know, I am in charge of entertainment at a few clubs here. So - this is also a job posting. Singers, DJs, musicians, and otherwise musical acts are all welcome to apply, either for one night or something more long term. It is a paid job, of course. You can either reply here, come visit me at the club, or send me a message privately.

[ He’s said a lot more than he typically does in any given moment. Then, something seems to grab his attention, and he turns back towards the bedroom, then back to the camera. He turns it off. ]

[ ...okay she made that one too easy. GG ]

He mentioned being a DJ and I'm always looking for new tracks to use on my streams so I hit him up 🐰

[bespredel]

Oh.

[ Pffft, lame. ]

The first time we met he rode up on his motorcycle and told me to get on; got me out of a bind with some fans stalking me. They don't call him the Hero of Kazakhstan for nothing.

[ she just reads the text and squints because is...

is this guy trying to show off or compete or something... ]

aw, cute. usually when I get stalked by fans I just get into my mech and fly away

[bespredel]

YOU'VE GOT A MECH!!!!!

Are you serious?! Don't mess with me!!!!

[ she just sends a selfie of her doing the V sign with one hand with her mech in the background behind her ]

[bespredel]

Ho. Ly. SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!

THAT IS SO COOL!!!!

[bunnyhopped]

it's not a big deal but

they don't call me the Hero of South Korea for nothing ;)

[bespredel]

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. How the hell did you get one??

[ Aka, where does Yuri SIGN THE FUCK UP.

No one should give this boy a mech. ]

[bunnyhopped]

i got drafted into the army ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[bespredel]

...That's. I mean, that is significantly less cool. Sure you're serving your country, but... at what cost, y'know?

The mech is still badass as hell though.

[bunnyhopped]

I don't mind.
It's a great honor to fight for my country. I was hand-picked because of my skills so I'm happy to use them to protect everyone.

But yeah, the mech is badass as hell ✌️✌️

[bespredel]

I mean, I guess. I represent my country in a different way- but we're in a sort of peace time, so.

What skills? Were you a sharpshooter before or something?

[bunnyhopped]

Are you a pro figure skater too?

I was in esports. Turns out all that hand-eye coordination and quick reflexes come in handy with piloting mechs.
