02 | video (backdated to the 27th)
[the video opens to the sound of the Thanksgiving dog show in the background and Jonathan settled contentedly on the couch, clad inexplicably in a turtleneck featuring the four Pac-Man ghosts. he smiles cheerfully.]
This isn't my holiday, but I hope that everyone who celebrates has been having a good time. I'm not entirely certain what purebred dogs have to do with being thankful, but I'm certainly grateful for the opportunity to watch them.
I never realized that dogs would be among the things that had changed in the future, but I suppose it shouldn't come as a surprise. People are always looking to improve their breed however they can.
Perhaps it's a bit childish, but owning a dog again is one of the things I'm looking forward to most when I finally feel able to leave the government housing. It's been a while since I've had a pet.
[he scratches his cheek, the smile becoming a tad nostalgic for a moment of two. the television announces the start of judging for the hound group and he shakes himself out of it easily with a roll of the shoulders.]
Ah, but I hadn't meant to simply chatter away about inanities! I've been thinking about this for a bit, and I wanted to ask someone who was more experienced in the matter - how does finishing one's education work here?
There's no way I could prove my qualifications, after all, but I'd like to finally graduate if at all possible. It's the principle of the thing.
[finally completing his degree feels kind of like a symbolic closing of the worst chapter of his life, even if in Heropa that wasn't technically true. and it would give him a little more confidence in perhaps looking for a job actually related to his field of interest.]
Thank you for your time.

He can only guess.
Joseph wipes the spit off his face with the back of his arm, and sighs.]
What's his name?
no subject
[ok, so maybe he's looked into things a little bit because Jonathan loves torturing himself at every possible opportunity. all of his responses are now coming with his head gently resting on the dog's back, because while the animal seems to have calmed down considerably, it certainly shows no signs of wanting to move anytime soon.]
It's fortunate. I'm not certain it fits him very well, to be perfectly honest.
