[040] - [Voice-->Video]

[It starts off as a voice post. Mitsuhide sounds... thoughtful. There's a lot on his mind, both negative and positive.]

Foolish or not... the prospect of seeing the sunlight again is appealing. A simple pleasure back home, one I barely even thought about before.

[He hums briefly.]It makes me think of one of the rare moments of peace I experienced

[ A light chuckle sounds across voice before Ran switches his video on. ]

That sounds very enjoyable, even if you did get pushed in.

Your carvings are beautiful.

[video]

[wavesoakedlegs]

It was.

[Mitsuhide's voice softens then.]

The culprit believed he was doing it for my own good, after all... and I got him back later.

[At the second comment he pauses for a moment, and then bows his head respectfully. There is a touch of embarassment in his tone when he speaks next.]

You are most kind. I am very far from being a master of my craft, but it feels good to know that people like them.

[threeofthree]

Perhaps he was right, if you had fun.

[ Ran smiles, shaking his head. ]

Kindness has nothing to do with it; they are quite good. Though what is the yellow one? I've not seen something like that before.

[video]

[wavesoakedlegs]

I could never tell him that, though.

[Mitsuhide's laugh is warm and affectionate.]

It's called a 'Pikachu.' It is a kind of 'Pokemon,' an unusual sort of creature from the world of another captive here by the name of Red. I have seen one other sort as well, called a 'Lapras.'

[A thoughtful hum. Not for the first time he wonders if it is at all possible for one to move between worlds; considering their existence in Vatheon, there must be a way. Not that he ever expects to know what it is, but the thought of seeing Red's world, and all the other ones he's heard about, is appealing.]

[There's nothing for him in his own home world, after all.]

Re: [video]

Why not?

[ The laugh makes Ran smile more. ]

It certainly looks like a curious creature. I've never seen anything like it at home. Animals are fairly rare there, as it is, though.

[wavesoakedlegs]

I could not give my Lord the satisfaction. He'd smirk continuously for days, and then I'd have find something to push him into.

[Mitsuhide's expression is full of good humour.]

Of course, he'd feel the name to retaliate again, and it would turn into a repeating cycle until one of us gives in... and by one of us, I mean me. He's far too stubborn to do such a thing.

[His voice becomes soft again.]

Rare? That's a shame. I cannot imagine living anywhere that doesn't have wildlife somewhere nearby.

[video] Apologies if you get this a billion times, LJ is being weird...

[threeofthree]

[ That gets another chuckle out of Ran. ]

But I'm sure it'd be amusing for you both until you succeeded.

[ But then his smile fades and he shrugs. ]

It is a shame. But it is what happens, when humanity needs too much room and leaves none leftover for the other species.

[video] - LJ doesn't like to play nice very much atm. ^^;

[wavesoakedlegs]

Not always. Sometimes he goes a little further than I'd like. But... if he didn't so he would be going against his own nature. Lord Motochika is rebellious through and through.

[He smiles. That is as is should be.]

I cannot imagine such a situation, I will not lie.

[He almost says something about people being too busy fighting each other, in his world, but refrains. That's a topic that he won't go into with someone he just met; it brings up a lot of painful problems for him.]

[So instead.]

The forest here is full of plenty of wildlife, at least. I spend a lot of time there.

[video] - It really doesn't. It kept giving me white screens.

[threeofthree]

Ah, I see.

[ Ran thinks about that, wondering if he should go. ]

I think I would like to see that. I've never been in a forest before.
