video posted by @ruffboi

[ The video shows a largeish well-lit room, the back wall made up entirely of mirrors, with three narrow poles set up in the middle of the room. It begins shakily, in medias res, a minute or so into Nicki Minaj's inimitable Anaconda. On the poles are none other than Taako, Lup, and Cisco, each performing some variation of pole dancing. It is clear that they have been practicing for a little while... but not all that long. They are clumsy, to varying degrees. Each of them is wearing some kind of festive and 80's outfit, extremely neon and extremely tacky. They don't seem particularly aware of being filmed, concentrating instead on their dances, singing along in some parts, and doing quite a great deal more hair flipping than is strictly necessary. There's an occasional glance of Magnus himself in the mirror, recording all of it on his phone. They are doing their best, but there are moments of clumsiness and laughter. At the end of the song, Lup does a dead drop that is taking the word 'dead' way more seriously than anyone ever intended. Her body drops to the floor with a loud THUD and her lich form raises out of it, concluding the whole video with a spectacular dab that sends Magnus into loud, booming fits of laughter as the camera jostles and the video cuts out.

This was solicited. It was publicly posted on a network.

I would reconsider a friendship with someone who records me trying something like this and sends it to random people.
franciscoramon: (>:| ffs)

I would be really upset if I were you if a friend did this to me.

That's all.

good for you

bringbackgold: (pic#11443833)

private to cisco.

[personal profile] bringbackgold 2018-01-09 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry. Didn't want to offend you, but clearly my comment was taken differently than intended.

I did want to talk to you. And Eddie. But since you're here. I'll talk to you.

I know you're important to Yuri.
franciscoramon: (:! relax)

[personal profile] franciscoramon 2018-01-09 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Well that's maybe halfway to an apology, if a bit on the "I'm sorry if you felt offended" side of things. Cisco sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose. ]

well a good pro tip would be:
you can insult me all you want, i can take it
but don't talk crap about my friends
i'm pretty sure nobody on earth or any other planet likes that very much


[ But Cisco's always been a soft touch and never good at staying angry for long. Besides, he knows Otabek means a lot to Yuri, so... ]

look, it's fine okay
don't worry about it
i forgive you

but whatever it is you wanna talk about
unless it's like super urgent
how 'bout you message me tomorrow when i'm not doing damage control on this whole video thing?

Believe it or not you're not the first of Yuri's trusted parental figures to do this at least. Post-competition banquets get interesting.

I'll do that. It's not urgent. And it'll give me time to think on things.
franciscoramon: (:? luscious locks)

[personal profile] franciscoramon 2018-01-09 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
good to know i'm carrying on a grand tradition, then

[ Oh god, is he really a "trusted parental figure" to Yuri, TIME FOR AN INTERNAL CRISIS, that's great. ]

cool
hit me up when you've thought your thoughts
bringbackgold: (Default)

[personal profile] bringbackgold 2018-01-09 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
A tradition, at least. :)

But. Yeah. I'll do that. And...I'm not sure how he'll feel about me calling you that to you, but... I can tell with him.
