[The message starts off with an image of a --well, he's pretty funny looking, really. Some grouchy guy with a really dumb perm sidecut and an unimpressed expression.]

So.

[He rolls his eyes, looking at something that isn't the focus of the message. He clicks his tongue against his teeth, making a tch sound, before looking back.]

Do any of you actually do anything interesting?

[Welp. That said, he's also seated on the roof of any given cabin, really. He doesn't really spend much time on the ground, all things considered, and right now is no exception. Feel free to tell him to get down or ask him what the hell he's doing. Or both. Both is good.]

Comments

[underwearfortomorrow]

Because I live up here? The whole cabin does. If you didn't know that then you must be new.

[Eiji says it like its obvious, jeez guy. Get with the program.]

[tsunbird]

[He inhales to retort, and just. Stops. They all live on the roof.]

[What the fuck kind of camp has he come into.]

So what if I am?

[underwearfortomorrow]

[Take one look inside the cabin and you'll understand Ankh.]

Welcome to camp? What's your name?

[tsunbird]

[Fucking humans and their welcomes!! He bristles, standing a little straighter and squaring his shoulders.]

[He just sort of scowls at Eiji for a long moment, before he finally huffs and tosses his head a little.]

Ankh.

[underwearfortomorrow]

Eiji Hino. Nice to meet you.

[And he actually gives him a genuine smile now. Was that so hard?]

What brought you to cabin 1?

[tsunbird]

[He scrunches his face up in a sneer for a moment, does it again, and then clicks his tongue against his teeth. It's like a habitual quirk that he can't stop doing.]

[How does he even handle this shit.]

[He answers the question literally, for lack of better answer.]

...the wind.

[underwearfortomorrow]

[He can't decide if that was a jab at his earlier comment about the wind or not. He raises an eyebrow for a second before he's back to smiling.]

What Pantheon are you from?

[tsunbird]

[Everything is always a jab with Ankh. Like. Literally. Everything.]

[Here's this question again. He narrows his eyes and tilts his head very slightly, considering.]

...Egyptian. [Is that the correct answer.]

[underwearfortomorrow]

One of the magicians? Mm, I've met a few others. They're very interesting.

[Just going to continue small talk.]

[tsunbird]

[What even are you.]

What about you?

[underwearfortomorrow]

Norse! Thor's reincarnation.

[It's taken about this long for him to say that without the air of uncertainty in his words.]

[tsunbird]

[A very blank expression.]

[You have got to be fucking kidding.]

[And then an abrupt laugh, without vocalization, just a rush of air and something that vaguely looks like a smile for a third of a second.]

[When Eiji's expression doesn't change he inhales again and frowns at him.]

...you're being serious.

[underwearfortomorrow]

[There is deep frowning at you. Okay, he gets it. He doesn't really look like any historical description of Thor. He's not bearded, red-haired or Nordic by any stretch of the imagination, but was that sort of laugh really necessary?]

[He sighs, crossing his arms.]

I am!

[tsunbird]

[He processes this for a moment.]

[Fucking Thor lives on a roof and wears colorful underwear.]

[...No, nevermind, we're done processing this, this is too stupid.]

[Another barked laugh, and he shakes his head.]

Well, at least you aren't boring.

[That. Might actually be a quirked smile.]

[underwearfortomorrow]

You won't be concerned about boring if you're going to stay here.

[That's a small eye roll and he goes over to his line to pin his underwear back up.]

[tsunbird]

[Another breathy laugh, and he turns away from Eiji to survey the camp again.]

That's what everyone keeps telling me. I'll reserve judgement until something happens.

[underwearfortomorrow]

Mm. There's a phrase for that, you know. Be careful what you wish for.

[Hippie laundry wee]

[tsunbird]

[He's just quiet at that. He's heard that phrase before, and it's never really sat well with him. "Be careful what you wish for". What a damnably human quotation.]
