[For once, Joaquin is not dressed in his soldier uniform when the video starts up. Instead, he's more casually dressed down in a hoodie representing the local community college and some jeans. His hair is wet like he's fresh from the shower. There's a little pink to his cheeks though whether that's from the heat from the water or maybe just the tiniest edge of embarrassment is hard to say...]

So, you'll never guess what I found while on my jog today, or maybe you've already seen it yourself.

[He holds up an unmistakeable calendar and coffee table book, a grin spread wide over his face. Okay, so he's definitely NOT embarrassed.]

For those of you still lacking in ideas for Christmas gifts, I'd like to suggest these lovely items right here. Think about it! ImPort exposure! Beautiful men! And proceeds go so lovingly to charity. 'Tis the season, as they say. And hey, no one is going to judge if you want one for yourself. After all, a calendar is quite useful; a great investment that will last you all year long.

As a bonus, anyone who buys one can come corner me and I'll autograph it for free! [He waggles his eyebrows teasingly.] You know you want it!

[Whoa!]

Are you doing aerobic endurance training? Or is it something more casual? [Let's focus on what truly matters here.]

[Hey, talking about working out is EXTREMELY important.]

Mostly I just take a jog in the morning as a casual work-out. Sometimes I have another go at night while on patrol.

I take it you're interested in training?

[ktfod]

[Someone who sees things as they should be. Thank you.]

Yeah, I'm interested. I use jogging as a rest period between more intense exercises, as a part of my interval training.

How many miles do you cover in either jog?

video i guess!!!

[akito]

[ he couldn't really care less about the calendar and coffee book since he's totally broke now, just in time for the holidays but he definitely could care less about the comment regarding jogging. because training. because things he promised not to do because he is still recovering from hospital ouchies.

...so he's kind of really jealous. HE WANTS TO JOG and more than that he wants to return to his extreme training and stuff. :( :( ]

Are you training, or just keeping fit?

video works!

[medalsome]

Keeping fit! It would be nice to get back into proper training soon, though. Haven't had much time the past few months...

his first video comment in ages!! :)

[akito]

Proper training is the best! It's also the best way to keep fit! To work your body to its limits every day until you're no longer limited!

[enucleation]

Do you only jog? [ since everyone is talking about training MIGHT AS WELL since that's all kaneki cares about too...]

[ permavideo ]

[medalsome]

Mostly. Back home I had a lot more time to devote to working out, but I think I'm going to try to get back into it soon. I just need to start managing my time better.

[enucleation]

Hm. It seems wise to train in a world like this, specially if we are at risk of a war.

What do you focus the most on, when training?

Those are finally out, huh? What month did you wind up on again? August?

permavid

[medalsome]

Yeah. They wanted to make sure everyone knew that next summer was going to be a hot one.

[driftsintobuffetline]

A scorcher, I'm sure. I just hope I'm not going to get burned for buying one of these things. ....You'd sign it, you said?

[Barely a few minutes after this has gone up, Joaquin can hear someone from the next room over, laughing and saying, "Oh noooo!"]

[Joaquin shuts off his communicator, knowing whatever new responses he got could wait. He moves to the door and looks out, seeing Manolo's door is open. Okay.]

... Are you okay, Manolo?

[matadorable]

....[He's sitting on his bed when he looks up at Joaquin, and he unsuccessfully tries to stifle his laughter behind a fist.]

Really, I'd just managed to forget about that.

How could you forget about me looking sexy? I have been shot through the heart!

[missleadingquestions]

How much are they.

[This. is the funniest thing. that she has to own. Holy heaven, it's a calendar full of blackmail.]

[permavideo]

[medalsome]

Hey, giving hope by donating to charity is priceless! But here, I'll send you a link to an online store.

[And he sends it.

Go ahead, Maya. Joaquin isn't at all worried about his own integrity.]

[ Bucky looks a little concerned and stunned, which doesn't happen often. ]

Wow. That is more of Tony Stark than I ever wanted to see...

[medalsome]

Really? I thought it was a pretty tasteful photo, myself.

[incogneto]

I never would have guessed. Why don't I buy you one? Everyone benefits.

[medalsome]

Hey, I already have one, but I wouldn't say no if you gave me one as a gift.

[He's vain enough to willingly accept it.]

[darwinatrix]

Hmph. The last thing Mustang contributes to this world is this silliness.

How fitting.

[medalsome]

But it is a contribution. And helping out local charities is a good thing!
