[ 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. ]

_{[ Karamatsu sends him the address, he knows exactly where it's at since his brother works there. It does take him awhile to get ready because of his attire, which may look similar to somebody famous, but that's beside the point. It doesn't take him a whole three hours, so he's there a bit early.
He has an acoustic guitar with him, though he does possess an electric one. He's seated outside of the Coffee Shop at a table. It looks like he already helped himself to an espresso and some water.

He's been playing his guitar at people who pass by-- it doesn't sound like he has too much talent in his singing, but his guitar playing is.. tolerable. ]}

[ Otabek takes his motorcycle there, and he arrives promptly. He didn't want to be too early, but he wasn't going to be late, either. He gets there, just a couple of minutes early. He walks into the coffee shop and he takes note of Karamatsu outside.
He approaches the table - taking note of his outfit. The reference isn't lost on Otabek. He's always been into music - so naturally, he'd get it. He isn't sure what he's going to witness by participating in this sort of thing. Luckily, or unluckily, for Karamatsu - Otabek is pretty direct about things like this.

He reaches the table, and offers his hand. ]

I think you're waiting for me.
