[ Look who's finally figured out how to use the video feature! Though, admittedly, he's still hesitant about this particular function, and it shows on his face as he sits in front of the camera, looking at the image of himself before he remembers he's making one of these moving picture things. ]

I am aware that, with this relocation, there are many new changes for all of us to grow used to. I'd like, if I can, to make myself available. To anything anyone might need. A job or something similar. Something like that.

[ Gods be, why did he choose to make this a video? This must be the part where he lists his skills and qualifications. As a man who's never had to work a day in his life, his applicable skill, he knows, might be for an acquired profession. ]


If there are hunting parties seeking another member, I'm no stranger to the hunt. I am accomplished tournament knight. I've proven my merit on the battlefield, and I was designated Lord Commander of my king's Rainbow Guard. [ The guard may have been short lived, but even to this day, Loras feels he still holds the position. In his heart of hearts.

There's a long pause. ]

If you think I may be of use to you, I'd like to help. Any way I can. [ And then the screen goes dark. ]

We'll need the branches to be at least an arm's length long. No cheating.

[ Dazai scribbles other notes, contemplating further supplies. ]

Anything smaller puts you too close to your prey, if you're holding it.

[ He's relieved that they've set a solid plan in place, despite the hurdles that come with hunting without pre-made weapons. ]

Spears are a little like javelins, so this should be right up your alley, hm?

[triplerose]

Yes, I think I can handle a javelin.

[cassus]

Excellent. And since you're so good at it, how about a lesson or two?

[ Sure they won't be on horseback when they hunt, and he could probably wing it - But there's something pleasant about letting someone bask in their talents. Besides, three guesses an actual knight holds pride in his skills and would like showing them off, now that tournaments are likely out of the picture. ]

I bet there's a precise way how you hold it level and keep your balance.

[triplerose]

[ Oh. That sounds perfect. Loras has been itching for a sword but something like a lance is just as good. He nods his agreement. ]

Yes, of course. I'd be happy to show you.

[cassus]

[ Interacting with someone whose code involves chivalry and knighthood could do Dazai a world of good. Loras might even inspire a bit of improved behavior in him, since Dazai tends to be something of a cadly ragamuffin when left to his own devices.

That and he's in desperate need of a meal, so this is certainly a win-win arrangement for him. ]

Feel free to contact me whenever you're ready to start.

[ In the interim he'll be gathering up all of those necessary supplies to fashion those makeshift spears for the both of them. ]

And I'll hit you up soon-ish once the lances are ready, since we need those to train with.

[triplerose]

Yes, of course. [ And there's a momentary pause, where he's not quite sure what more to say. ] Thank you.

[cassus]

No problem. And don't forget.. You're helping me too.

So I'd say we're even, more or less~.

[ Knowing the other man might feel taunted he tries to steer away from outright pestering, but can't resist the smallest note of playful teasing in his tone. ]

See you later then!

[ With an impish smile Dazai waves a little to the device's camera before heading off to get busy. ]
