[Video] Backated to before the event for convenience
So... at the risk of sounding a little like my brother's broken record, I'm in need of a bit of assistance. I have recently decided to take a- ah, break from the family business which also means taking a break from my allowance so now I'm in need of another source of income. And to be honest I haven't even the slightest idea of where to start looking.
[He smiles ruefully, trying not to let the nervous tension he feels show too much.]
I- I'm afraid I can't really claim to have any particular skill, except maybe cooking and I suppose generally taking care of things, though I'm not sure if the latter one really counts as a skill as such. Oh- And I guess you could say I have at some experience with pokémon. But I'm open and willing to learn and while I may not be used to it I'm not afraid of working hard. So, ah, any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
[Having managed to say his piece Yuui breathes a soft sigh of relief and lets go of his rigid posture as he relaxes back against the couch cushions, his smile brightening as he continues.]
On a happier note Calypso suddenly evolved last night. It seems she decided she wanted to look more like "mommy". [At hearing her name Calypso jumps into Yuui's lap and noses at the warp band to get her share of the attention, showing that she has indeed turned just as pink and sparkly as her human. Yuui wraps his free arm around her and cuddles her close to his chest.]
Isn't she adorable?
[There's a soft bark from somewhere below and Yuui shifts the warp band to show the floor where a Herdier is lying on its back with its legs up in the air, looking expectantly up at him.]
Oh, and Gelert has learned how to play dead. Now we're just trying to figure out how to make him stop.

Action
[Hoping that Fai won't catch it but unable to stop himself, Yuui rolls his eyes again. Of course Fai thinks that. But Fai's his brother which makes it different. Somehow. In a way that Yuui can't quite put proper words to. Which doesn't make it any less true.] Somehow I don't think boasting about how 'special' and 'extraordinary' I am is going to do me much good at the moment. [Though as much as he hates to admit it Fai might have a point about him underestimating himself sometimes.] But I will try to keep that in mind, okay. Good enough?
[Yuui shifts a bit on the couch, both so that he can carry Fai's thankfully pretty light weight and so that the other members of the cuddlepile will have a little more room to work with.]
But there was nothing wrong with that one! I have no idea what you have against it. [The raw fish counts as a successful dish no matter what Fai said.] It was from a recipe too, so it wasn't as if I was even experimenting with it. [Well...] Much.
Action
We~ell, now that you mention it, you don't have to put it quite like that. [Excuse you sir, Fai will just roll his eyes right back, gently dissuading Sweetie Pie from examining all of his face and by extension Yuui's with her lips.] But yes, I do think that if an employer asks you, it might be a good thing to mention.
[If nothing else, nothing says "responsible" as much as "accounting".]
It tasted like sewers and sadness is what. [Have an exaggerated grimace, Yuui. Such maturity.] But I liked the ones you grilled a bit, and the egg thingies were okay. [Such generosity.]
Action
It's not as if I was going to leave it out in the first place. I just didn't think it needed special mention on the network. If we're still talking about my working for the family business that is, because there's no way I'm telling them that I'm extraordinarily special or whatever. [Seriously, he's not that much of a wet blanket. Also Calypso is of the firm opinion that if Sweetie Pie is going to get attention and kisses than she should too!]
[Then again, nothing says "boring" as much as "accounting" either.]
I think that's just you. [Yuui snickers at the exaggeration and tugs lovingly on Fai's feathers in response.] Just okay, huh? Well that's clearly not good enough for my dearest brother. I guess I'll just have to serve that when you're not eating at home from now on.
