[VIDEO 3/28] It's my birthday, I can meme if I want to.
[The video opens up in a living room, on a couch, with a smiling Sora taking up the majority of the frame. Various murmuring can be heard in the background, along with an occasional dog whining from an adjoining room. Sora's smile widens upon seeing his phone is recording, and then the video shakes a bit as he adjusts the screen to not be an extreme closeup of his nose.]
Hey, everyone! I hope you're having a great day! I hope so, 'cause it's my birthday, haha. And it's Shiori's birthday, too! Hey, c'mere and be in the video-
[The camera shakes again as Sora leans over and tries to drag someone into the frame. They aren't having it, and they shove Sora off with an annoyed 'Get off me, ugh!'. Sora just laughs and scoots back over.]
Anyway, we're having a party at our house, if anyone wants to come! It's an open invitation, I guess, but it's mostly just gonna be cake and ice cream and stuff. Minako's making a bunch of food, too. We're eighteen now, so that's kind of a big deal, 'cause that means were grown ups now! Right, Shiori?
[Another shift in the video, and the frame moves sideways to where Shiori is sitting at the other end of the couch, looking at his phone. He looks up at Sora when his name is called, raises an eyebrow, then goes back to what he was doing. Sora laughs and and pulls the camera back to him again.]
So, like, the party's gonna be in a few hours, so I hope to see some of you! Like, don't feel obligated or anything, but it'd be really cool to have a big, fun party with all our friends. So, um, bye!
[He waves to the camera, then the video ends. Yes, he's always that awkward.]
[ooc: A log for the party will be going up on April 2nd and backdated to March 28th, so look out for that!]

... More importantly, who is Shiori?
no subject
shiori is my brother lol
i think i told you i was a twin???
well thats shiori XD
no subject
[Things are starting to make more sense now.]
no subject
well
i guess now you know XD
no subject
But now I'm wondering if you said those things just because of your own
guilt, not because they were a good idea for me.
no subject
idk tbh
i dont think so???
but idk
but everything i said was true
and i meant all of it
no subject
[This is still weird. Like, he'd never met anyone who was a twin before, and now suddenly he's a twin, and he's not sure if this should be the kind of thing you're supposed to bond over.]
At least tell me where you guys shop around here so I can get some nicer clothes.
[Lies, he has a plan.]
no subject
tbh i mostly go thrift shopping???
but also theres some cool stores on the main street of the shopping district
thats where i get my school clothes and stuff
idk if thats the sort of stuff your interested in but it might be a good place to start???
the shopping district in general has a good variety of stores
no subject
What about your brother - thrift shopping too?
no subject
i think so
but we dont exactly go shopping together XD
no subject
When you're not throwing him a party he's trying to uninvite himself from.
no subject
he just doesnt like being on camera much
but um
idk
just hang out i guess
[Just gonna. Avoid that subject.]
no subject
But he can still be a pest of a tourist at least. ]
Hanging out could mean something very different for you as an American than me
So maybe some specifics?
no subject
shioris busy a lot
hes in college already so we dont go to the same school
and he lives in dorms instead of at home
so i dont see him as much as i want to
and like
i have my own school stuff
plus all the retrospec stuff
so like
we text a lot
and he tries to come home for dinner sometimes
[He's not very good at lying or talking around a subject.]
private
I don't know why people keep being super vague about "retrospec stuff" when it still seems like a bunch of dumb dreams to me.
no subject
he skipped a grade and graduated early
so hes in college already with a full scholarship and everything!!!
im super proud of him lol
also idk that people are vague about it exactly???
but sometimes its hard to explain if you havent experienced it
theyre not just dreams and stuff though
theyre memories
