voidtreckernet | [Video] Grasshopper Day Sixteen (After Departure from Platform)

From: Dressing Carriage
To: All Carriages

You know what? Effe this train, and effe it's stupid shop.

[He's moderating his language for the sake of the children on board! Be proud of him Voidtreckers! ~~It won't last forever.~~]

If this is the game it's going to play, fine. I can play.

[Reno steps into view of the terminal's camera and he's wearing this fabulous outfit with a pair of tight fitting black pants just barely visible beneath all the swag. For show, he's twirling three materia (one red orb, one green orb, and one blue orb) in hand like the dexterous fuck that he is.

Sorry, you weren't expecting a redheaded Goblin King/Sesshoumaru hybrid to appear on the ICPs today? Too bad! Have one anyway.]

Look, all I'm saying is... don't ask for random clothes unless you want to end up having to play dress up like you're going to a freakin' convention for nerds.

Me? Nah, I'm gonna own it like I'm the freakin' Lightning God that I am. [He winks at the camera.] Right, Stinger?

[[ooc note: feel free to run into him wearing the outfit over yonder if you prefer! yes, I used the word 'yonder' in a legit sentence. bite me.]]

[Prompto is missing completely there was anything off about what he'd just said. It was perfectly normal in his own context.]

Ah! In that case, I'll meet you in the garden. It'll have the best lighting!

[He waves and then runs off to meet his new friend.]

[Well, off to the next carriage ...and so forth until he ends up in the garden. He doesn't exactly hurry considering he's having fun prancing about like a loon. But he makes it there eventually.

He moves with an easy swagger. His languid pace doesn't even jostle the three orbs in his one hand. He's holding them still by now because otherwise he'll get a damn cramp in his hand, but once he has an audience he tends to juggle or twirl them a little bit for show.]

[Prompto hopped up excited when he saw the man in the dramatic purple outfit. Wow, he didn't realize how much that reminded him of Ravus. It made him a little nervous for a second before shaking himself out of it.

He steadied his camera- which magically appeared in his hand out of no where- and quickly took a few shots.]

Wow! These are going to be great! Can you juggle any higher?

[Reno paused as he saw Prompto get up excitedly and get a little closer. He didn't get the opportunity to greet him though before the camera started snapping pictures.

Okay then! This guy was enthusiastic about photographs.

The briefest of hesitations as he processed the request. Then he flashed a big grin and acquiesced. He wasn't just about the juggling but his whole demeanor was a constant pose, a performance with his every move. Juggling wasn't his favorite thing but it did garner attention and he wasn't half bad at it considering he had excellent hand-eye coordination.

He was extra careful with the materia though. He didn't want it to crack. At the first sign of a possible fumble because he tried too hard to please and throw it nice and high, he lowered the height immediately and then slowed to a stop.]

You really like this stuff, huh?

[He asked idly as he returned the three orbs to one hand and began to twirl them about instead, just to keep up the performance.]

[Oh wow! The guy was really getting into this. He loved it! He wondered if this was what a 'real' photographer felt when he had models and stuff.

At the question, he sighed and nodded.]

Yeah, a train for months on end isn't exactly a great place for photography, you know? I don't want to let my skill or my camera get rusty but.. there's not a lot of excitement going on. Anyway, thanks.

[He stuck out his hand.]

I'm Prompto by the way. I forgot to introduce myself.

[Well, the plus side to already having his main hand full was that he didn't have to play the 'oops wrong hand' game when it came time for handshakes. His handshake was firm but brief.]

Reno. [beat] Interesting hobby you have there. Didn't realize photos were so...exciting.

[He didn't really get the appeal. Then again, he wasn't into that sort of stuff. (Didn't keep him from admiring a pretty pin-up or gazing at advertisements like any normal person but that was another story.)]

[The fact they were shaking with the wrong hand was forgotten a half second after it happened. It was a mix of how weird this place was normally and Prompto's observation skills.]

Nice to meet you Reno. Well, you know, they're a great way of keeping track of where you've been and cool stuff you've done.

[He clicked on a button and the best shot he'd taken of Reno printed out on. He handed it over.]

What kind of stuff are you into?

[It's not the wrong hand since his left hand was occupied. Reno was a lefty. He juggled the orbs with his main hand, the left hand, and shook with the right hand, the typical choice in a world full of right handed schmucks.]

Yeah, I guess. [He still didn't get it. Then again, he had to memorize important shit or he'd be crap at his job. Some people took photos for blackmail, he supposed, but generally he left that kinda work to rookies.

He took the photo and grimaced as he looked at it. Not that he didn't look fabulous because he fucking did--but damn it was still ridiculous.]

Ehh... booze, woman, cheap sex. [He was mostly joking at least.]
