Third Daydream [Video]

[niepokonany]

Hey!

So like, I've been thinking. I know Mutants Aren't Monsters has been kinda quiet lately, 'cause I've been studying and X-man-ing and in Europe and stuff, but with all this stuff going down lately, I totally wanna get back on it.

Who wants to do a flash mob? It'll be super fun!

Oh, and like, my confessor was all like "the Hail Marys are cool for God but maybe like apologize to your schoolmates too" and stuff, so, um...

Sorry for drunk texting everyone! I made cheesecake, it's in the lounge closest to the dining room.

[That's an apology, right? He grins, a little nervously like he's not used to doing this, and waves a little before the message ends. If you'd prefer action, he'll be in the lounge with the candlestick cheesecake.]

Comments

Ah... haha, no, hopefully not, but I imagine my parents will, in their hearts, be rather more forgiving than the newspapers, and, as a consequence, our public relations office.

[niepokonany]

Breaking scandal! Alric rumored to be a person with feelings and a sense of fun! ...Something like that?

The newspapers need to take a major chillpill sometimes.

[knighterrantofthedragon]

Hah, yes, well. I do have a responsibility to maintain some distant resemblance to propriety, in public--two-fold, at that. You'll have to keep any such insinuations without our circle.

[The playful tone and smirk are mild, compared to Feliks' way of indicating he's joking, but there.]

[niepokonany]

But like, where's the fun in that?

[knighterrantofthedragon]

I'll be having far less fun in the log term, if I go about causing headaches for my family, I assure you.

[niepokonany]

No, that's how they get you! If you keep putting off having fun, you get old and powerful enough for that long-term fun, but it's too late 'cause they made you boring. Like, carpe diem and junk, right?

[At least it wasn't YOLO. The fact that it wasn't is probably a minor act of God.]

[knighterrantofthedragon]

[One of which Alric would be surely thankful, except he's done his best to keep "YOLO" entirely out of his consciousness. He does grin a bit lopsidedly at that warning, though.]

...really. ...well, I appreciate the concern, certainly, but I'm confident I'll find a way to strike the proper balance--and certain you'll be a crucial role model, in that response. But propriety and honor, besides being an obligation, are armor worn for the sake of those for whom I care. If that invites a risk of becoming boring, it's a peril I face without hesitation.

[niepokonany]

[Feliks makes a face at all that responsibility, then laughs a bit.]

Lame~! Well, I'm gonna just show you a good example of how much radder it is to get a little crazy now and then.

...And you might have to help me with the flash mob, for your own good!

[knighterrantofthedragon]

[No comment on "getting crazy." Last time he "got crazy," it ended in a scandal and a young man with lots of second- and third-degree burns.]

Mm. I'll see what I can do.

[niepokonany]

[That is almost certainly crazier than Feliks intends. Like 99% certainly.]

Sweet, I'll keep you posted!

[knighterrantofthedragon]

[...well it wasn't exactly what Alric had intended, either. Funny thing about "getting crazy."]

I shall certainly look forward to it, then.

[niepokonany]

Great!

[He grins, and gives the camera a little wave.]

Oh, and like, there's still cheesecake if you want any. You probably deserve it more than anybody.

[Since your room is next to his and all.]

[knighterrantofthedragon]

Ah... the offer's certainly appreciated, but I haven't suffered as much as all that.

[niepokonany]

I guess it's like, probably lucky if you're that heavy a sleeper.
