aefenglom | video; IT'S ABOUT FREE FOOD OKAY

Name: Ignis Scientia & Caren Ortensia
Date: June 16th, early afternoon
Format: Video

[Greetings fellow people who are stuck here! You've checked your watch, only to find a comedy of errors taking place as two people--well, a man and the top of someone's head--converse. There seems to be a disagreement.]

--do it. I've used this before once or twice, so I think I have a suitable handle on things.

[There’s a loud, exasperated sigh, and stray hairs float up lazily in the air. They’re slow in settling even as the smaller person speaks.]

Certainly. If you know what to do then-all you need to do is send out the information via text and we’ll be done, yes?

[There's a shifting of the image, and a thumb over it for a moment, then it's the other person--the woman--in full view for a split second, before there's a closeup of the man. More accurately, of his eyes behind his glasses. Then it resolves in focus to his entire face again.]

Right. I hope you don't object to doing this as a video feed, because it appears we've turned it on already.

Ah.

[There’s a pause, and the woman adds:]

If that’s the case-we need to adjust the camera.

[More shuffling, then the video wobbles (sorry for the motion sickness, everyone), and it's more or less two people there, at least from the man's chest up, and the woman's whole face is now visible.]

Shall we begin, then? We haven't much to say, and we're wasting everyone's time.

And we can only apologize for wasted time. In any case-we’ve decided to make this call because we have food stuffs in excess after some food experimentation.

[Is it a little sad that her head doesn’t even clear his collar bones? It might be. But hey, check out the view!]

As she said, Miss Ortensia and I are in need of some assistance. Both being connoisseurs of the culinary arts, we put our skills together to create some dishes for the festival with local flavor. However, in our haste to try various dishes, we've created many more than we can consume ourselves.

We do not ask for anything in return, but…if you would like to exchange for drinks, perhaps wine? I certainly would not be against the idea, especially if people wish to partake on site. Have we forgotten anything Mister Scientia?

I believe that covers it. If you'll be so kind as to give them the location, I'll give them a general idea of what we have to offer. A visual feast to precede the real one.

[And he picks up the device and turns it so people can see the… literal multiple tables covered in various food dishes. All of them look amazing. There's also Paris in the background, armed with bread, but blink and you'll miss him.]

We’re located in the Haven district, in the sub location of the larger housing. The address is…

[She rattles off an address which is basically says it’s the fifth fancy house claimed slash occupied by newcomers.]

We hope to see you soon. Happy...Litha? everyone.

Yes, have an… abundant holiday.

[And the feed ends after a little more wobbling of the camera.]

[ooc; A small log for this will go up later and will be edited into this footnote! Feel free to get ready to flamingle there! All are welcome!]

Yeaaah, there's a reason they gave me a gun and not anything sharp.

Doesn't a gun require hand eye coordination? Like you would with a knife?

I've got that. I'm just...clumsy.

Clumsy, but adorable nonetheless.

[A beat.]

Perhaps Ignis figured out a spell to protect your hands? That or he has gloves you can use while you learn proper chopping techniques.
