[ The face that comes onscreen after a few obvious jostles might be one you're familiar with (if you are, sorry, he's probably not the one you're looking for). Johnny's half-concerned, half-amused with the general state of things and it shows in the way he's looking into the locket, clearing his throat. ]

Ever wonder how this feels like some weird State of the Union address? Except with a lot less people. Or maybe it's like making a YouTube video. Here I am, talking to you guys, and I can't even see your faces. [ He shrugs. ] Oh, well -- anyway.

What's up, strangers of Drabwurld? I have three questions: [ Holds up one finger. ] one, why is it called Drabwurld? Did its founders hate being here, or does Brightworld just not have the same ring to it? Ha, there's your thought of the day.

[ Two fingers. ] Two: Anyone seen a big orange walking rockpile lately? Grumpy, looks like he lost a bet with a mudslide? Failing that, how about a guy who can stretch to grossly disproportionate levels, or a girl who can turn invisible? If found, let me know; they can be pretty ornery, and reach dangerous levels of boring when put together for too long.

Three, and I can't believe this didn't come first. It's a very important question, so I'm gonna need all of you to be honest with me, whoever you are.

[ He leans closer to the screen, loses the smile and gets serious. This is crucial. ]

Which side's got the hotter babes? The Seelie, or the Unseelie?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Dude. [ ?????? ]

Unseelie, definitely, but... did you get brainwashed or something?

[ reaches in from off the frame and flicks his ear ]

[ U GO GIRLFRIEND ]

[ ?????????? ]

Brainwashed what now?

[ IGNORING THE FACT THAT HE GOT RUDELY FLICKED IN THE EAR. ]

Yeah! Like, aliens put a new person in your brain.

[ HAHAHHAHAHAHHA ]

I'm pretty sure I'm the only person in my brain. [ Or is this some alien thing? Is this guy an alien? ] Do you have a new person in yours?

No, but I know an alien with four eyes and like, six nose parts, so you could ask him! But he's kinda really serious and might have his alien dog eat you.

Six nose parts? [ Johnny looks grossed out and fascinated all at once. ]
He must be hell to be around when he gets a cold, huh?

Yeah! And his mouth splits weird too...

[ WHAT ARE THEY DOING ]

Seriously? What's that like? Tentacles, or worse?

Nahhh, he's mostly humanoid in like — uh, silhouette? If you played who's that Pokemon with him, you'd just think he was a human in a weird hat. His mouth has little cut things in it — [ he sticks his own fingers in his mouth with little snipping motions, two on each side of his top lip, and two on the lower. ] and they're weird. They might be more nose holes. I dunno.

Buddy, that sounds gross. [ HE GETS THE IDEA. ] And no one runs away from him in horror?

Um, have you seen the giant green ginger? Or the troll dude? Shit's like, normal man. Even weird dogs — look:

[ junpei whistles and says something in japanese, and after a moment there's the sound of scrabbling claws on wood floors, and a weird bark. junpei holds up a weird looking.... creature, for lack of a better word, which is panting happily like a dog. ]

... Technically he's an alien too, though.

Whoa!!!! Whoa! What the --

[ THAT IS THE MOST ALARMING SIGHT HE'S SEEN buddy you gotta warn a guy!!!!! But holy shit it's cute. It's actually quite adorable in a really weird way. ]

Oh, man, that's actually sorta... cute. Does it do more dog things or more alien things?

Welllllll, he did kill and eat a badger, once!

That's definitely more of an alien thing, right? [ badger wat. He taps the screen as he grins at the dog, endeared despite himself. ]

What's his name?

Edited 2015-02-11 13:59 (UTC)

Akkin. We were gonna call him Akihiko, but then that got weird, and Akimaru was a pain to say, so. Akkin it is.

Akkin sounds like a good name. Better than Spot.

[ He grins, although he'd totally name it Spot if he got one. ] Hey, Akkin! Who's a good boy?

[ akkin wiggles happily in junpei's grip, and makes a weird trilling snarl noise, his tail and butt shaking with glee. IS IT HIM? HE WANTS TO BE A GOOD BOY? TELL HIM HE'S A GOOD BOY! ]

[ THE DOG IS THE BEST THING TO HAPPEN TO EACH. LOOK AT IT. It's terrifying and cute all at once and Johnny doesn't remember the last time he'd ever thought that. He's laughing, so very taken by the alien-dog -- Johnny is obviously a dog person, terrestrial or otherwise. ]

You are, Akkin! You're a good boy! [ To Junpei: ] Oh, man! Does he play fetch?
