Video 07 → What Do Women Want, Anyway?

[irregular]

[Unfiltered. Let's see how long it takes Ken to realize this.]

[Ken sits on the edge of the fountain in Espoir, frowning into the camera in aggrieved confusion, as if it personally has done him some disservice.]

Uh... this is probably gonna sound dumb but Does anyone know what kind of stuff you get a girl you like that isn't totally stupid or creepy?

[The head and neck of a toy giraffe are just visible in the lower right hand corner of the frame. Ken glances over at it as he speaks, then shoves it quickly down in an attempt to get it out of shot, without any real noticeable success. An awkward look flickers across his face. Great, so he's already seriously regretting deciding to ask this question and he hasn't even finished saying it yet...]

And I'm not gonna do flowers.

[The feed cuts off quickly.]

Good luck with that, Ken-san. I'm sure it'll turn out great.

[Says the girl who can barely cook a good meal.]

Thanks. I'll let you know how it goes... well, I guess I won't haveta tell you if I burn the place down, but yeah. Guess I'll find out.

[Bring it on! Even if 'it' means 'the fire brigade'...]

[popstar]

Let's hope it doesn't come to that then. Wouldn't want to see that kind of thing happening here.

Well, I guess if I just follow the instructions it can't go too wrong.

Thanks, Rise. For calling, too.

[popstar]

Anytime, Ken-san. Tell me how it goes, all right?

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

Sure thing, Rise.

Oh, thanks. For calling, too. See you!

[He smiles, and disconnects the call. Maybe this video thing hadn't been such a terrible idea.]
