♋ 12th stage: [text -> video] Dec 7th, evening
SO APPARENTLY WATCH PEOPLE ARE EXPECTED TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES EVERY TIME THE BREW LOBS A NEW CLUSTERFUCK OF CONFUSED ASSHOLES AT US, SO HERE WE GO. LISTEN CLOSE, GLOBESUCKERS, BECAUSE I'M NOT GOING TO KEEP REPEATING MYSELF. MY NAME'S KARKAT VANTAS, MY PARTNER'S CALLED SELENDIS, AND WE'RE ZONE LEADERS ON THE WATCH. WHICH, FOR THE NEWBIES AND DUMBASSES READING THI
[The video starts right when the text cuts off, and Death City is greeted by Karkat’s scowling face and Selendis’ arm. She’s already in the middle of saying something as she leans back, only halfway in the picture.]
- not an acceptable approach to introducing ourselves or the Watch. [Addressing the communicator now, she speaks a bit more loudly.] As Karkat was saying, the Watch is a security force for Death City that is operated and staffed by Guests such as ourselves. It is our duty to safeguard the city from not only Kishin Eggs, but common criminals as well.
[Karkat throws up one hand in exasperation, which is bandaged for some reason. He can be heard in the background saying, "what the hell's wrong with using text? I don't see why every podfondling douchebag in the city needs to know what we..." but he trails off into angry muttering as Selendis gives a proper introduction. He changes the angle so her much calmer face is visible on-screen as well.]
Yeah, so we're the people you need to talk to if shit's going down in the Financial/Services district. Or if anyone on our crew is doing something dumb and terrible, which they probably aren't. Except for Naruto, because he's always setting stunning new standards in human failure. It's like he's going for all of the fucking records at the same time, I don't know.
[Selendis is just going to let that dig at Naruto slide, because it’s not worth it right now. Business first.]
More to the point, we are here should you have any questions or require help. If you have interest in joining the Watch, I would urge you to speak directly with Roy Mustang. Any skills or services you possess may be of great use to us all.
And that's about all there is to say on the matter, unless some of you are still confused somehow, which wouldn't surprise me at all.
[Without waiting for Selendis to respond, he reaches to cut off the feed.]
Shit. Next time, we'll have to rehearse or something.
[The screen goes black.]
