tenth bite ⧗ video ⧗ backdated to ugly sweater day (day 13)

[redhourglass]

[ whoa, look who is actually showing her face! it's not a very happy face, though. definitely not. actually, natasha looks positively livid - and for good reason. once the video pans back a bit, you can see her sweater; nice and warm, but not even close to stylish. she can only surmise that the gods are behind this, but that won't stop her from letting her displeasure be known. ]

No.

[ yeah, just no. in general. no to this sweater, no to the weather (which was cold even by her standards), no to this being funny, no.

the look she gives the camera is stern - as though she's addressing a small child. no. in actuality, her intent is to reach whoever thought this was a good idea. it just happens that everyone is fair game. ]

I'm burning this thing once I can get it off.

I doubt that will get you anywhere.

[silvestris]

Don't bother. It comes back.

[She has tried everything. Everything.]

You are all too mindful of such things. It is - perfect cloth for wearing.


[ ...that may or may not have been a purrrrrrrrrfect. ]

video.

[redhourglass]

It will do me a lot of good.

[ just seeing it go up in flames, that would be satisfying. ]

[redhourglass]

I'd rather be cold than --

[ you know. wearing whatever this is. ]

video.

[redhourglass]

[ if looks could kill... ]

And what are you wearing?

[subecho]

[ ...oh, so very good of you to ask for an exclusive close-up view of his neon-reindeer sweater. ]

Is it not a good token of your people?

It's not so bad.

[So many modern clothes look strange to Altaïr; what makes the sweaters worse? Then again, his is at least slightly cooler.

video.

[hadbadays]

So you're definitely addressing the gods knowing very well there's no point. Right. Go ahead, then.

[It's hard to tell who wins, really.]

Would you do the honours for mine as well?

[asofwar]

[Really, Thor. Really.]

[ Excuse her barely concealed giggling, she just finds that sweater funny. Not that hers is any better. ]

Not a fan of cats, are ya?

[ Because those are cats, right? ]

video;

[redhourglass]

[ what's so funny, hm. she sees no humor in this situation. ]

Not on my clothing. Yours is .. surprisingly maritime themed. Want to trade?

video.

[redhourglass]

You've never done anything purely because it was cathartic?

video.

[redhourglass]

[ ikr. just forever judging him. ]

video;

[redhourglass]

Gladly, if I thought they wouldn't just reappear.

Yours at least looks like Christmas.

video;

[asofwar]

If only I cared for it.

video.

[asofwar]

I apologize for him.

[redhourglass]

Says the guy in the relatively 'normal' sweater.

[ she surveys him for a moment. ]

That's subtle.

video.

[redhourglass]

Yours doesn't clash with your hair.

It could be worse.

video.

[redhourglass]

I hate to say it, but I'm almost used to it.

video.

[asofwar]

Should I grow to appreciate it by comparison?

video.

[asofwar]

That is the way things go with Thor.

[redhourglass]

A sweater like that? Most likely means someone wants you dead.

[ or not to get hit by cars at night. either way. ]

[subecho]

Is this how you mark the prisoners you mean to see executed?
