DRAFT 2 [Video]

[pushtheboundaries]

[hello, Network. we'd say 'it's this guy', but it's actually a puppy...on a desk...in what looks like an office. some might recognize it as the headmaster's office of Xavier's school; others might be more focused on the fact that the puppy has made a complete mess of the place, and is sitting on the desk like it's center stage. it's also wagging and panting happily, as if to say, 'look what I did! i'm such a good dog!' nevermind the fact that it's missing a hind leg and its other seems to be in some sort of bootie, it's adorable and so very pleased with itself and this room is going to be an absolute nightmare to clean up.

at this point, Callaghan's deadpan voice speaks;]

Would the owner of this animal please report to the Headmaster's office.

[those from San Fransokyo - specifically, SFIT - may recognize that tone of voice. that is the tone of voice when somebody is in serious trouble and their Professor is about to give them a verbal whiplashing of a lifetime. run. run for your lives, it will make no difference in the end, there is no escape.]

Thank you.

["RUFF!" PANT PANT PANT wag wag wag oh there goes the butt in the air is it time to play. the change in position is just enough to catch sight of its patterned collar before the video clicks off]

((OOC; back from hiatus - Callaghan has totally been cooped up in his office the whole time.))

I can pick him up. I work in the local animal shelter and I live in Xavier's.

If nobody claims it, I'll take you up on that. [beat] In the mean time, you wouldn't happen to have a travel carrier, would you?

Have someone break the video in to individual frames.

[timecapture]

Aw! It's so cute!

[Priorities.]

If nobody claims the poor little guy, I'd be willing to look after it.

[video]

[pushtheboundaries]

[you may only think it's cute if you're not the owner, because if that is the case Callaghan is going to show you exactly how cute it is being a RESPONSIBLE owner


and you seem safe for now] Noted. What's your name?

[Video]

[crapbearer]

Clearly, it chose you. It's yours now.

[Video]

[pushtheboundaries]

Hardly. I already have a potential adoption lined up if no one bothers to own their pup.

omg how dare u post this while i sleep unforgivable!! :c

[akito]

[ akito is going to pretend like he hasn't just been running around the entire school for the past hour+ trying to find his precious puppy. that will teach him for falling asleep on the job!! ]

...Professor Jiji, you found Benji-kun!

/INSERT CACKLE EMOTE HERE

[pushtheboundaries]

[....Akito.

of course it's Akito's.

the one person his anger will not work on ironically he's even more annoyed by this]

'Benji-kun'?

[incendere]

[IT'S HARD NOT TO LAUGH. In fact there's a good few seconds where Roy is trying to stifle it before he speaks.]

I had no idea you were such an adamant dog person, Mr. Callaghan.

[pushtheboundaries]

[ROY PLS]

It's not the dog's fault.

text; comm tag is "Tadashi"

[tadeadshi]

[That is indeed a dangerous tone, one he hasn't heard in a while.]

Any accidents yet?

[pushtheboundaries]

Not other than the one you see.

[bad_in_latin]

He surely looks proud of himself, don't he.

video

[pushtheboundaries]

He sure- [don't mind that double-take here. they grabbed Nathan Fillion?] -does. [beat] Then again, he did make an amazing mess of the place.

[lvless_soul]

[Sorry Callaghan, this child will be of no help to you. They're just here to smoosh their face right up to the camera and stare in excitement and joy at the so very adorable puppy. How could you be mad at it for making such a mess?? Look how cute it is.

Frisk wants to pet it. So they pet the screen of the communicator instead.]

[pushtheboundaries]

[WHY IS EVERYBODY COOING AT THE PUPPY he's losing his touch with his 'coldly angry professor voice' isn't he. oi.]

He's spoken for, if you were wondering.

[airshow]

Awww, and here I was totally gonna claim custody of the little hellion. It's got stage presence!

video

[pushtheboundaries]

Sorry to disappoint. [NOT REALLY]

video; pretend this tag was on time.

[earnedmystripes]

[Someone (hint: not a student) is grinning widely, and very definitely chinhandsing at adorable doge. What're professionalism and maturity, can you eat those.]

I dunno, I think it gives your office character.

[pushtheboundaries]

Was that an offer to help clean? How kind of you.

[dogsled]

You would think he'd be worn out by now, wouldn't you?

video;

[pushtheboundaries]

I would...but it, or, he, is still a puppy. [and there's the reason.]

[resipiscent]

... He's cute.

[pushtheboundaries]

He's trouble.
