['Accidental' Video/Action]

[Video]

[At first, the journal seems to have been left open by accident, perhaps knocked open by some errant passerby, as the only thing visible is what looks to be a ceiling. Certainly nothing remarkable, in any case.

However, it isn't long before the sound of a bell jingling can be heard over the journals, followed almost immediately by a surprised and dismayed squawk of protest, then by Richard's laughter.]


What are you-- Oh come on. I am not wearing this. [There’s further jingling as the subject of Richard’s tormenting speaks up.]

Just as I thought-- it suits you perfectly. Purple really is your color.

There are nicer collars out there, you know. Ones that don’t make noise.

And if I said the noise was the point?

[More jingling as the collar is tugged at, but not removed.] You want to slowly drive yourself mad?

I want to be able to know where you are. You’re far too quiet when you’re around the house.

Me? Quiet? Pfft. You mean you can’t just follow my constant complaining?

I suppose I could always give you more to complain about instead…

You’re already doing that, so I lose either way.

[He laughs again.] Then I see no reason to object to this.

[Score another victory for Richard.]

[Action]

[Mission accomplished, Richard will spend the rest of the day tidying up around the house and running a few errands. Those who pay attention might notice that there's something slightly... off about him, though. At home, he very nearly trips over the cat and accidentally bumps his shin against the coffee table at one point (which anyone in the house will be made aware of when he yelps); at the store, he stands there staring at the ingredient lists on food items far longer than most people would.

It's a definite aberration for the usually elegant and graceful king, but one he'll try to shrug off if asked about.]

(OOC: Joint post between Richard (green) and Isamu (purple)! One or both will answer the video part-- if you have a preference, feel free to specify.)

Well, I think he wants to be able to find me immediately if I'm nearby.

Not that I think this is an excuse for a bell!
seleniahymn: (I don't think that's it.)

... I hope you aren't suggesting the use of an instrument or similar means to start summoning each other. [Or so goes her first thought, that could become tiring.]
musubi: (screw you and your little dog too)

[video]

[personal profile] musubi 2014-04-23 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
No, he most definitely is not.

[No, Richard.]
seleniahymn: (I see what you did there.)

[video]

[personal profile] seleniahymn 2014-05-14 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
Shouldn't the sound of your own voice be enough to call him to you? [Since they were friends, right?]
musubi: (i can help with that)

[video]

[personal profile] musubi 2014-05-14 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
You'd think that!

Yell my name a few times and I'll probably respond. [Probably.]
seleniahymn: (So che tutti lo.)

[video]

[personal profile] seleniahymn 2014-05-28 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
Is that so? In that case, perhaps a name that he can't avoid listening to will work.

[Something kind of like a nickname, maybe...]
musubi: (screw you and your little dog too)

[video]

[personal profile] musubi 2014-05-28 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
No. No other names. I will completely ignore them just to be an ass.

[At least he's honest about it.]
seleniahymn: (Willing to explain.)

['Richie.' That was definitely a sound that could have been a chuckle, but she stifled it quickly enough.]

It almost sounds as though you have tried that tactic before.
musubi: (we're all mad here)

[personal profile] musubi 2014-06-01 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[He could have called you "Dick".]

I'm tellin' you, it won't get far.
seleniahymn: (Whatever you say.)

[video]

[personal profile] seleniahymn 2014-06-05 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't say that's true, unless you want to remain utterly faithful to his name.

[Because what's wrong with 'Mumu'?]
musubi: (stretching)

[video]

[personal profile] musubi 2014-06-06 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. It's true. I'm totally un-nicknameable.
seleniahymn: (Trying to be patient here.)

[video]

[personal profile] seleniahymn 2014-06-15 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
That would be the best way to go about it if he insists his name is impossible, wouldn't it?
musubi: (get real (closer))

I've already said it - I'm not responding to anything stupid.
