CASE 03 ★ [video / text]
[On this sunny Wednesday morning, the broadcast opens up to reveal a disheveled teenager with a mussed mop of black hair scrunching his face up and squinting sleepily at the camera, a tangle of blankets and sheets draped consciously over his shoulders. Judging by the ugly, off-green floral wallpaper on the wall behind him and the gnarled blinds half-drawn over the window, it would seem that everyone's favorite neighborhood Yusuke Urameshi has just woken up in his hotel room, and if you look close enough, you can see Puu the Swablu dozing on the back of a chair near the far left of the screen. Aside from the faint hum of the AC overhead, the room is relatively quiet, but there's also a muffled noise in the background that sounds suspiciously like a bunch of little feet drumming on carpeted flooring, suggesting that Yusuke here isn't recording this video just to show off his epic case of bedhead.]
Heeey... uh-- Kisa? [Having woken up less than ten minutes ago, Yusuke's still kind of out of it, and he sounds it, too: his next words are spoken around the edges of a fairly massive yawn that, while not enough to make him impossible to understand, definitely manages to muddle his speech a bit.] Y'know how ya gave me that egg...? Check this out.
[The camera swivels away from his face, and today's tender viewers get an exciting look at... the carpet, and the corner of the other, unoccupied bed in the room. Don't get too bored yet, though - soon after the camera angle changes, a small, tiger-striped blur of obscenely fluffy whatever goes zipping past, sounding more like a tiny rampaging elephant than anything else. It disappears behind the corner of the bed, then reappears seconds later, racing in the other direction.
This continues much in the same way for another moment or two before the little bundle of energy skids to a stop and reveals herself to be a wee baby Growlithe, who is clearly dealing with a major case of post-hatching zoomies. With her butt up in the air and her tail wagging frantically, the pup gazes at her trainer with wide-eyed enthusiasm. A soft "heh" comes from behind the camera.] Whatcha doin', Gin? Huh? You annoying the big ugly fat guy downstairs?
[Seized by overwhelming excitement of the OH MY GOD YOU'RE TALKING TO ME variety, Gin lets out a shrill yappy bark before continuing to run around like a spaz. Yusuke turns the camera back to himself, looking amused.] Figured I oughta let you and... Ari? Know that I didn't make an omelette out of her kid. Might've accidentally dropped the egg a couple times, though...
[... Yusuke, that is NOT something you admit to out loud. Fortunately for him, it wasn't that audible, and he has the sense to change the subject pretty quickly once he realizes what just slipped out, slapping on a cheeky smirk.] Aaanyway, guys, this gym thing is taking way too freaking long to prep for, so I'm ditchin' this craphole for now and heading to Goldenrod. Anyone in Violet who wants to fight better say something now, cuz I am not coming back here anytime soon.
Later.
[And click, off goes the feed! IC responses shall be delayed 'til he's had a chance to wake up and do various morning ritual-type things like take a leak and hop in the shower and get dressed and do his hair and all of that good junk. o/]
