[The camera turns on and Flynn is staring at someone off camera, frowning slightly before he looks back at the recording device. He opens his mouth to speak, then shuts it, and then finally he relaxes. He gives the camera a smile and a nod of acknowledgement]

I was told that this device can record me and put my words onto a network.

[Flynn gives a small wave.]

Consider this a practice round for me. I'm Flynn Scifo, and I hope to get along with everyone.

[He looks back over to whoever is off camera and cocks his head to the side.]

Is that good?

[The blond looks back at the camera and gives a sheepish grin.]

That's all for now. See you later.

[With that the video cuts off.]

Comments

[Flynn quietly plays with the menu in front of him. Kind of going quiet.]

Well, yes. I need a place after this one, so I am thinking about seeing if I can get something similar after I start working.

[Flynn looks to Repede and smiles, brushing his hand through his hair at the whine.]

What's wrong Repede? Don't like that I don't have a stable place yet? I'll be okay.

[at_heart]

[ Thanks, he hates it. ]

—We've got the room. Literally.

[ And now he's offered, so now Flynn can say no, and then he'll. He doesn't know. Go punch something, maybe. ]

[bravestknight]

We haven't lived together since--

[He stops petting Repede and leaves his hand on his head kind of scritching with his fingers but not moving anything else. He lets out a slow breath and murmurs.]

Are you sure?

[He doesn't know the people Yuri lives with well yet, and he's not sure that he wouldn't be in the way.]

[at_heart]

[ Well, way to make him feel even more self-conscious about the offer. At least Flynn isn't looking at him like he grew a second head or anything. ]

One of the things you can get every month like clockwork is this... item that adds extra rooms to your house, and we've got five people, so. We've got a lot of extra rooms already.

[bravestknight]

I see.

[He thinks on it for several moments before he nods.]

Okay, I'll live in your house with you, but only after the two months are up.

[It'll give Yuri some time to get used to him and make sure he actually wants him there.]

[at_heart]

[ Just ratcheting up even more self-conscious, hi. A bit of a short, barking laugh. ]

What is this, a free trial? If I change my mind in 60 days, I get my money back?

[bravestknight]

I just want to settle in for a little bit. After the two months of being in the apartment I'll move there.

[He puts down the menu and looks at him.]

Do you want me to move in right away? Don't you need to talk to the others?

[at_heart]

[ Self-consciousness levels reaching criticality. ]

I mean, if you'd rather take one of the starter apartments, don't let me stop you.

[bravestknight]

I'd rather be with you.

[Flynn tells him softly, honestly.]

1/2

[at_heart]

[at_heart]

[ Okay, he was wrong, this is criticality. ]

Just makes sense, that's all. Like I said, we've got the space. Only three of the bedrooms are actually occupied. —Four, I guess.

[bravestknight]

[He sighs and presses a hand to his face. This is so awkward, and he's not really sure why.]

Oh? Do you share with anyone?

[at_heart]

[ does he share with anyone ]

There's five of us. Two couples.

[ Absolutely no way Flynn won't notice if he's moving in, but actually saying the words might physically injure him. ]

[bravestknight]

Okay, that didn't answer my question, I mean if you do...It's okay.

[Flynn tells him gently.]

[at_heart]

The couples do not include me.

[bravestknight]

Okay.

[Flynn relaxes a little more and taps his fingers on the table.]

I'd feel better if you talk with them and make sure it's okay first. I can wait it out a little bit.

[He wants the other to be cherished and if he can't be the one then--]

[at_heart]

[ He is sweating, fuck. ]

I can do that. It's my house — but it's their house, too. Can't imagine they'll have a problem with it, though.

[ maybe he could bribe someone into having a problem with it ]

[bravestknight]

Still. We want to make sure.

[He reaches out, his hand is on the table, looking suspiciously like he was going to reach out to Yuri, but he pulls his hand back into his lap.]

I'm not going anywhere.

[at_heart]

[ Repede is absolutely doing an unnoticed Dog Version of An Eyeroll here. ]

—Me, either.

[ Beat. ]

You've already met Saya, so that's a start.

[bravestknight]

Saya? She's great.

I've also talked to a bunch of people. Everyone seems so welcoming.

[He goes quiet again his fingers brushing over the table as he clears his throat and smiles at Yuri.]

[at_heart]

Yeah, she's... one of the people I'm living with.

[ Did she mention that? Did she not mention that? ...Did she avoid mentioning that on purpose because— ]

Good. I mean, I'm glad to... hear that.

[bravestknight]

Yes, I'm aware. She told me first off that she was sharing a house with you, then that she was drinking your blood.

Also, that she was married to a man, who I also talked to. Kantera, right?

[He wants to touch Yuri, to check him over and make sure he's okay, but that would be meddlesome on his part.]

[at_heart]

[ —And relaxing more, because he definitely didn't feel like he could spill those particular beans without her okay. ]

...Yeah, she is. I, uh — kind of became a pretty regular blood donor back in Tokyo-F.

She and Doc — Kantera — are one of the couples I mentioned.

[ The good news is: he lost the tongue ring and the tail when he showed up here, so it's just the longer hair that's really changed. ]

[bravestknight]

[Well she kind of did tell him a lot while he was overwhelmed but he remembered that much at least. He looked at Yuri and smiled slightly.]

You've always taken care of your friends.

[He cleared his throat and looked away.]

Who is the other couple?

[at_heart]

[ You don't know the half of it. Literally. He's fed several other vampires. ]

Heh. Right.

[ Friends. They are friends, but... ]

Uh, Venti and Lumine. Have you... met either of them yet?
