video/action; happy birthday detective

[jurisdick]

ᴠɪᴅᴇᴏ

[ and due to a horrible streak of bad luck, while akechi is sitting (extremely cramped) in the catbus on the way to the actual lodge, his fidgeting fingers along the device happen to click it on at the most inconvenient time. perhaps it's the world playing a cruel trick on him. who knows. either way, the feed shows the brunette hunched up in the back of the bus with a few others, face contorted in discomfort. under his breath he's saying something that sounds genuine and a lot like ]

...I don't even like my birthday but this is an absurd way to spend it.

ᴄᴀᴛʙᴜs - ᴀᴄᴛɪᴏɴ

[ if you're in the catbus, feel free to harass him during the ride, or you know, hear him say it's his birthday. or scroll through the feed and hear it on there and then angrily turn around when you realize he hasn't told anyone before this.

it's really cramped in here. ]

ᴄᴀᴛᴄʜ-ᴀʟʟ - ᴀᴄᴛɪᴏɴ

[ akechi will be rooming with stefan, so feel free to barge into his room at any point. other than that, feel free to bother him (he'll likely be reading by the fire with hot chocolate), or standing around the entrance of the lodge "admiring" the snow. he isn't planning on going out into it except for the snowball fight, so he won't be lost at all in the storm. ]

Comments

[uncaging]

Yes, it is. Though I'm not English myself.

[She was never quite sure how to describe her own nationality, or whether she even had one.]

[jurisdick]

I see.

[ he knows better than to dwell on peoples' parents, after all. ]

Would you like to take a seat?

[ since she went to the trouble of bringing over the brownie and all. ]

[uncaging]

Certainly, if you don't mind.

[ She worries that she's bothering him, but at the invitation she takes a seat in a big armchair nearby. ]

Am I correct in thinking you're fairly new to Wonderland? I don't recall seeing you around before.
