( video | un: bow )

[squadgoal]

[ the reception's a bit spotty. though it's really bow fiddling with the device before he sets it on the table and moving back so that the camera can see him. he eyes it briefly before grinning. ]

Okay! Hello! My name is Bow. I am a . . . superhero here? I guess? Still feels kind of weird to say and it's honestly not that important. I'm here to talk about monsters. Monsters that look like . . . THIS GUY.

[ bow proudly holds up . . . a stuffed toy that looks like this. its eyes are buttons now. it's adorable. he sets it down on the table next to him. ]

Since it's a threat and I wasn't entirely sure what the plan was, I thought maybe interested parties could come to my place and we can discuss battle tactics?

But you should give me pictures so I can make proper action figures for all of us. Hope to see you there!

Did you-- did you make a stuffed toy of that thing people have been posting on the network?

[ Damn, that was fast. ]

[squadgoal]

It didn't take very long.

Also I keep getting my thumbs in my pictures.

[flightforfreedom]

It didn't take you very long? Man - my adventures with sewing always go very awry and usually end up with staples, so I'm impressed.

You, uh, you going to fight this thing?

[fauxmarth]

Hello, Bow.

Your replica is very charming...you do that monster far too much credit with your rendition. Myself and others part of the Aegis Force have heard the reports coming in about it and are going to be working in teams to track or otherwise subdue it.

You haven't encountered it personally, have you?

[squadgoal]

[ wow that was quick. bow grins, hiding his own nerves. ]

No, I kept my distance. I was hoping to get more data on his movements and range, but I didn't get a lot.

[fauxmarth]

From my understanding, there may be more than one. Something similar has been vanquished earlier this week, only for another sighting to be reported later. And all within the confines of De Chima, no other city connected by the Porters.

[honeybadgered]

Oh my gosh, there is no way the monster is nearly that adorable. Or I’d be hugging it right now.

[To demonstrate her commitment to hugging adorable things, she picks up Jonathan the wolverine and hugs him tightly.]

Anyway. I’m totally down for both battle tactics and custom action figures! Can you make one of me? I should look super fierce.

[To demonstrate, she puts Jonathan down. Then she makes a growly angry face and with a SNIKT lets the bone claws pop out from each fist.]

[squadgoal]

Woah!

[ claws??? claws. okay. bow can roll with claws. ]

I mean, I can try? Not sure how good of a job it would be.

[honeybadgered]

I believe in you! [She grins again, letting the claws go back into her arms.] This is gonna be so cool.

[fursleuth]

First of all. Oh heeeeey! It's you! You are a real person and not some kid I dreamed up while I was on drugs. Nice to meet you sober, kid.

[He holds up two tiny furry fingers.] Second of all... Why did you make the horrible mouth creature cute and cuddly?

[squadgoal]

Heeeey . . . you know, I don't think I got your name.

[ and bow shrugs. ]

I kept taking bad photos and I wanted to make sure everyone knew what it looked like.

[fursleuth]

You absolutely didn't, because I assumed, as my spirit guide, you already knew it. It's Pikachu.

Cute button eyes not included. Wouldn't wanna give anyone false expectations.

[topmeup]

Cute plush, bruh. [Max is being honest that he thinks it's cute, even if it is of a horror monster.]

Nice of you to offer your place as a mission HQ, but you forgot to mention where it was.

[squadgoal]

Oh, right. That would be important, wouldn't it.

I'm at Maurtia Falls #6.

[topmeup]

Don't get too serious, I was just messing with ya. But hey neighbor, I guess.

[swordsense]

You know I'm going to be there.

[They talked, of course.]

But I didn't know you were so handy with a sewing needle. That thing would be cute if it wasn't horrid.

[squadgoal]

I tried googly eyes first. That just made it worse.

And yeah, I'm pretty good with sewing and crafts. I made my own outfit.

[monster_san]

What a cute eldritch abomination!

Discussing tactics is an excellent idea. You can count on me to help with that and with fighting it.

[squadgoal]

That's great! Come by and we'll figure out a plan.

It seems like there might be more than one and a scouting mission could do a lot of good.

[perfectlyhuman]

Did you make that? It looks really good.

[ He's heard about the monster. Tangentially. But that stuffed toy is really impressive. ]

[squadgoal]

Thanks! It took me a while to get the proportions right and it's on the squishy side.

[pocketfulof]

Okay, that...is kind of impressive and I want one?

[More like Nico would love shit like this and he needs to get one for the boyfriend. It's a thing.]

I can add two more to your team--probably. I'm a medic, but my boyfriend has a sword. And uh...[Beep. Boop. Beep. Enjoy a picture of the two idiots, ala the icon.] That's us. The name's Will--his is Nico.

[squadgoal]

Aww, nice!

Reminds me a little of my dads. Anyway, all hands are welcome here. Medics and swords people especially.

[ambasciatore]

Holy shit.

[ Nico doesn't do video. But please, enjoy him as he stares at the screen wide-eyed.


And also totally missing the point. ]

You make action figures? That's so fucking cool.

[squadgoal]

Thanks? I try my best.

[ he pulls out his tiny bow figure, placing it next to his squishy abomination. ]
