八 [video]
[The video turns on to show Japan standing in his room. He's not in his blanket. Actually, he's not even in a kimono. He's wearing his dark, Meiji Uniform, indicating his change of attitude over the past few days. His sword's at his side, and you can probably spot his matching hat on a table nearby. Looking ready for battle, ready for outgoing activities. That's right, no more hiding from the world for now. He bows a little before speaking.]
I would like to begin by apologizing for any strange behavior recently. ...I am finished with my work, so if anyone has any business with me, I will be available.
If anyone has any news on what has been happening in the city lately, I would like to hear it. Any information on planned events in the future is welcome, as well. I realize that many of the people here happen to be Japanese citizens-- my citizens. I cannot help but feel a bit of responsibility, in this case. Ah, but please do not feel limited on contacting me. I have many friends, already, who are not Japanese.
[He pauses, looking a bit thoughtful, and then gives a softer look back at the camera.]
Ah.. and, I may be straying from the point, but.. does anyone know of any Sake here? I am not saying the beer is necessarily bad, but.. I am more comfortable with sake.
[There's some awkward shuffling, and then he nods and bows to the camera. He also repeats this message in text a few minutes later.]
Oh! If I could address the scientists for a moment. I'm honestly not too sure about the lake, but if I could be provided with enough fishing equipment, at least for a small group of people, I would be glad. A couple of fishing rods would be nice..
I believe that is all I need to say. Thank you for your time.
[EDIT: I always forget to add stuff like this. If you have not commented to Japan's CR list, please do so over here. Even if you've just had a small conversation, that's okay! Also, if you'd like a specific icon to be used, please tell me. So far I've used defaults, so if you want me to change it, just go back to our thread and ask! I'd be glad to change it.]
