first cake. VIDEO.
[ The video feed is flicked on to a moving scene. Some ground, a shot of sky - okay, give him a moment. After a second the gear is turned to view Honey's beaming face; he appears to be hanging off the back of a Kangaskhan, who seems to be tolerating his monkey-like antics with all the patience of a doting mother. In the absence of a baby, she appears to have decided her new trainer more or less fits the bill. Of note are the bright pink scarves they're wearing; Kan-chan's is tied in a bow. ]
Ne, ne, Kan-chan! Smile for the camera!! Big and wiiiide! [ Kan-chan will flash her teeth to appease her tiny charge as he moves the gear closer to her, why not. He is so enthusiastic. She is the best mother. ] That's it! A first impression is important, right?
[ Honey has yet to drop the light, playful tone of voice, but he'll get to a slightly more serious note now. Kind of. He heaves a bit of sigh, dramatic in a practiced sort of way. ] Ahhhhhhhn, I don't recall going anywhere...did Tama-chan plan something without saying? No one seems to know! And no one's numbers are listed here, although I tried them all! Takashi will be worried, you know, I was supposed to meet up with him after class...Kan-chan, there was going to be cake...!
[ And that, of course, is the moment where he switches from light and breezy to legitimately put out. His priorities. ] And now there isn't any cake, it's sad, right? [ There, there. While Honey mopes on her back, the Kangaskhan pats his head gently. After a second of sulking, Honey's back to being cheerful, and finally winds down to what he probably ought to have started with. ] Takashi...! Tama-chaaaan, Kyo-chan, Haru Hika Kao-channnnn, Reikooooo-chan! Can you hear me? Kan-chan and I would like an answer! Ah, I lost Bun-Bun, too...He wasn't here when I got here. Today is an Bun-Bun day, too...
Well, we'll go see if there's a shop with cakes. Kan-chan, you want one, right? We'll savor them properly and wait for everyone else to call us! Onward!! [ ...He's apparently not getting off of her back, he's just going to let her tote him around. And apparently Kan-chan is allowing this, since they start to move as Honey shuts off the gear. ]

[Video] *Mitsukuni I MISSPELLED HIS NAME.../sobs
I'm eighteen! How old is Obi-chan~?
[Video] I couldn't remember so I trusted your judgement ;-;
Fourteen, just had a birthday last week.
[Video] MY JUDGEMENT WAS WRONG, I'M SORRY I MISLEAD YOU :(
Then I'm older, yep! Ah, although Obi-chan has me beat in height... [ most people do. ]
[Video]
I'm a shinobi, we're not known for getting cutified Mitsukuni.
[Video]
Oh, you're a shinobi? [ Immediately interested - and he even knows the word, to boot. ] Do you use rabbit shuriken?
[Video]
...Shuriken yes, rabbit... not so sure. Is that some special blade pattern or something?
[Video]
[ ...he may or may not be from a martial arts oriented family and he may or may not make everything about rabbits. ]
[Video]
Uh... No... can't say I do. I'm more of a kunai kind of guy anyway...
[Video]
I've never met a shinobi before, though. Ahhhh, not a real one, at least!
[Video]
[Video]
And they work, they work! I've used them a lot, ne, it's fine.
[Video]
[Video]
[Video]
[Video]
My family is, hm...they've all been martial artists for generations, you know! There's a family law that we have to fight upon greeting one another outside the home, to keep us on our toes.
[Video]
Too much family strife for me though.
[Video]
[ ...But...family strife. Face falling. ] Well, I don't know if it's that tradition that causes problems...Chika-chan's not very fond of cute things...
[Video]
[Video]
Does Obi-chan like sweets?? [ IMPORTANT QUESTION. ]
[Video]
...Depends what it is. Why?
[Video]
[ PEEEEEEERING AT THE SCREEN. ]
[Video]
Is it good cake?
[Video]
[ He actually sounds offended. ]
