[What is up everyone??

Nakatsu is broadcasting live from the bathroom. He's sitting on the edge of the tub with his hair freshly done so it's at max spike levels. You can't smell the bleach, but he's spent the morning touching his roots and he feels and looks 1000% today. This is going to be a great post.]

So I'm pretty sure today's my birthday. I worked it out. It's August 20th, right? Does it work the same here as it does back home? Is a year three hundred and sixty five days?? Whether it does or not, you all have to say nice things to me!!

[There's no time to dwell on this joyous event. We're moving on.

As we move on, pay special attention. Nakatsu has the recorder propped up against something so he can make full use of his hands. And he does. He has the most expressive hands you've ever seen.]

Okay, I'll be honest. I didn't make this video to talk about me. I need a job. I mean. I have a job already. I walk this guy's chicken's around the neighbourhood and he pays me. They money's not bad. [But his expression looks pained.] But chickens? Come on. I can't walk chickens. Look. Someone give me a job, okay. I'm a great worker and I've got serious experience in a ton of useful areas. [It's a lie.]

I even got my two dumbass housemates to stop shouting at each other! They're practically best friends now! That's how great I am. [That's another lie. Theon and Robb are still the worst. He looks offscreen to the bathroom door, just to make sure neither of them can hear right now.] They'll give you a great recommendation for me, I promise! [thumbs up!

-wait] I don't want to be a guard though. I mean. I'm glad lots of you are out there fighting the fight and chasing down guys who steal ladies underwear or whatever, but. [shruuuuug] No way that's for me. [He's not even going to talk about getting a job in the red light district. Don't talk to him about it, he'll die.] I went to give blood! But, that's not a job either, you know?

[There's a pause of about ten seconds here as he stares off camera, apparently contemplating what kind of job it might be to donate blood for a living.

Focus, Nakatsu.] So! All you guys out there! Someone can give me a job, I know it! If it's working with food I accept already! If it's working as a dumb guard, forget it. Okay! Peace!

[He reaches for the camera- which he fumbles and drops to the floor.

This is a super flattering angle up his nose.] Hey, I almost forgot! If you're free sometime and you know what soccer is, let me know! We should play.

[A little more scrabbling and there's finally some silence. There. It's over.]

YOOoOoOOOOoOooooOOo I heard it's somebody's birthday!!

[ he literally just announced it, lance. ]

Shuuichi, my man. My dude, my Dorito Loco Taco. You can't spend the day sitting around, waiting for jobs. We gotta CELEBRATE!

[ happy birthday, nakatsu, have an equally useless response for this post. ]

[nakatsu]

You idiot I just said it was my birthday![but he's laughing

this is literally the least useless thing nakatsu has ever seen you're the actual greatest]

What kind of celebrating are you thinking? I'm not kissing the fashion nerd again just to save your ass!

[competing]

Ix-nay on the issing-kay.......

[ nakatsu pls... this is a public network............ ]

But — no, I'm thinking maybe not drinking ourselves dumb this time around. [ he is tired of cleaning up puke ok... let him live. ] But we'll do whatever you want, man. It's your day!

happy birthday!!! (*≧ω≦*)
do you sew or anything? bc Im trying to get a job at the tailor shop

[nakatsu]

hey thanks!

i can use a sewing machine a little? I made a pillow once
probably not skilled enough to get a job with it

[ayes]

ahh yeah I had to do something a little more complicated than a pillow so
you could practice I guess?? but that might take a while

[exonerated]

Soccer? You mean football.

[ Look, he won't hold it against you for using the wrong word but he's here to correct any and all atrocities to the English language. ]

Happy birthday, Nakatsu. How do you feel about taking care of animals?

[ Wanna come work with him at the stables!!! ]

[nakatsu]

I mean soccer! [but he looks excited to see you know what he's talking about. He knew you were a great guy.]

Looking after what kind of animals? I'm kind of sick of chickens already.

[exonerated]

If you don't mind the rust, I would play it with you.

[ Like, ten something years not playing it at all will probably mean humiliation, but he remembers it to be a fun game to play. ]

Horses, among other animals people ride on to travel places.

[ Like, three-headed dogs and giant lizards, etc. ]

[ He doesn't trust text much these days. ]

We call it a name day, in Westeros. [ Toss in a friendly, innocent smile. ] I've procured you a present.

[nakatsu]

[actually spurprised]

Hey! You didn't need to! I'm fine without one, really.

You haven’t done anything. We still aren’t friends. What you did wasted your time, mine, and his.

[ Did you really think he wouldn’t find this, Nakatsu? He sounds and looks clearly irritated, and it’s with good reason. Despite Nakatsu’s amazing Westerosi parent trap, he and Robb still aren’t getting along particularly well. They have a lot to talk about, and they aren’t talking about any of it. Still, there’s a lot more in this post to touch on. Theon runs a hand over his face, looking weary. He could comment on the chickens, or the implication that the royal guard are chasing down men who are stealing ladies underwear, but instead-- ]

Is a birthday is the same as a name day?

[nakatsu]

[Rather than looking guilty that he's been called out, Nakatsu is just stubborn. He won't apologise for what he'd tried to do, and he won't stop trying to make peace between his two housemates.]

Yeah, it is. It's the day I was born on.

happy birthday, man. are you wiser, or just older?

i cant help on the job front, but uh, id play soccer if you get a game going

( seems like a decent time, so why not? )

[nakatsu]

both! I'm super wise now

you know about soccer too?! that's great! we might have enough for a game

[agradecido]

Happy birthday, serah.

I think the first thing one would need to know in order to offer you a job would be what your particular skills are? Other than walking chickens.

[nakatsu]

That's true isn't it.

I guess I'm pretty fit! I play lots of sport and stuff. Uh. I'm great with people? [He notices about now that wow those are some nifty face tattoos. and some pointed ears.

try not to stare, Nakatsu. It's rude.] uh. yeah. It doesn't sound like much, actually.

Happy birthday.

[she probably vaguely knows of this guy through osmosis of living with Lance.]

I cannot say I know what soccer is...is it a sport?

[nakatsu]

Thanks! [SUPER THUMBS UP she absolutely has run into him through Lance]

It's Allura, right? Yeah, soccer's a sport. You play with a ball and kick it around.

Happy birthday!

If you like working with food, the market should have jobs available. Even I got a job there for a while, so I'm sure someone with actual experience will be hired in no time! Or maybe one of the eateries has a job opening?

Also: I know of soccer, but I don't really play...

[nakatsu]

Thanks! [His grin's pretty wide at this point with all the nice birthday wishes.]

Ah, you see. When I said I wanted to work with food I meant I liked eating it. I've never actually worked with food before.

[HE'LL GET TO SOCCER IN A MOMENT. First he feels bad about leading you astray, friend]

[witchhooded]

well
if you want to work with food
wouldnt you be best off looking at the restaurants? :o

what kind of soccer do you mean?

[punshots]

happy birthday, dude! whether it really is, or not

[ Look...just do whatever makes you happy, man. He'll even look past that fact that he took a jab at the Royal Guard. It's an important job and someone has to do it! ]

so are you looking for a job where you get to make food, or one where you get to eat it?
or both?

Happy name day, Nakatsu.

[ she can see Robb already explained the word to him, so she doesn't make any attempt to do that — instead, she smiles. ] I am sure you will be busy celebrating, but perhaps before you leave the house, you would meet with me? I have something for you.

Happy Birthday!

Are you trying to organize a soccer game or something? [because if that was the case, she thinks it would be pretty cool to see in action and maybe she will even give it a try herself]
