Video || 3 Bottles And a Ring
Type: Video
Sender ID: catsgothistongue (Ranma S.)
To: Public
Subject: Ranma found some goodies he has no use/no knowledge on, so he's giving them away to any takers.
Warnings: Alcohol, small mention of underage drinking, probably cursed ring that makes people go mad and experience hallucinations, more will be added as needed.
[The video feed opens up to Ranma sitting somewhere in Eltrut, seated at a table with a bag right beside him.]
'Sup. Me and a birdbrain went treasure hunting on a ship a month ago, and these things have been sitting around my place since. I thought about pawning them off to one of the shops here, but I figured I'd see if anyone'd want to take them off my hand first.
[His hand reached into the bag, and pulled out an expansive bottle of alcohol by the nozzle.]
There's two more in here that's the exact same brand. Looks like rum if the labels' are correct. I haven't opened or drank from it, hasn't been messed with, nothing. I certainly don't want it, gotten drunk too many times in my life already. Anyone wants a bottle, you can come meet me at one of the shops in Eltrut, I'll be outside. If you want more than one, it'll cost you a pretty penny.
[Putting the bottle bag in the bag before sitting back.]
Oh! There's something else! Almost forgot about this thing...
[Ranma pulled out a clothed jewelry box that he opened up, showing off a ring. The ring was adorned with a dark purple gemstone cut and shaped into the image of a skull, with small green gemstones for eyes. Staring at it even from beyond the screen makes one feel like it is staring directly into their souls, and no matter how Ranma moved it or they're viewing the angle, the skull always faces them.]
Freaky, huh? It was in the same crate the rum was. Haven't actually worn it myself, but I've kept it around my place. It's... weird. It feels like it keeps looking at me, even when it's in its box. Sometimes I'll even find it outside it at times. Might be super cursed... So anyone want it?
[Oh what a tempting bargain...]

Why are you still talking to him? [Just end the damn conversation, Kaveh isn't getting any alcohol!!]
no subject
[This is just getting good. Siiiiiiiip.]
no subject
[He is struggling to try and retrieve his phone. this may involve scrabbling at Alhaitham's arms.]
It's just one bottle of rum you meddlesome bastard I will be fine--!
no subject
[Alhaitham is doing a decent job thus far at keeping Kaveh's Shellphone away from his reach. Ranma however may be seeing nothing but the ceiling
where a certain fish statue may be lurking at the corner.]Besides, don't you still have that pack of wine in the kitchen from the other week?
no subject
no subject
[Well Kaveh is struggling and may have successfully swatted the phone but all that means is Mehrak caught it. So now ranma might get them flailing in full 4k HD glory.]
no subject
[Yes Ranma do feel free to continue popcorning to the sight of the two of them tussling at it like cat and dog. Or two cats trying to fight over the same toy. Same difference really.]
no subject
no cursed fish statues in sight.]Both sides have a good point...
[He's not adding anything substantial here, he's only making light commentary of the show he's watching.]
no subject
[He has abandoned the phone to try and get Alhaitham in a headlock.]
no subject
Y'know, I was also planning on pawning these off. I can do that instead if no one's gonna take these.
no subject
[Grunts it out as he struggles against the headlock that Kaveh has managed to get him into, hoping that Ranma will get the hint to end their conversation so that Alhaitham can move on to deal with his senior appropriately.]
no subject
[TOP TEN TURTLE BETRAYALS, RANMA.]
no subject
[Did Ranma get the hint? Yep. Is he going to? Probably not.]
no subject
[He is noogieing Alhaitham now.]
no subject
[Holding his chin in a contemplative manner, seemingly thinking it over. How does it feel to be the least favorite parent Alhaitham?]
no subject
[He cares about this more than being the unfavorite parent.
But also, he is trying very hard to get Kaveh to stop noogieing him now.]
no subject
[There, is that better Alhaitham?]
no subject

no subject
[That tone? That tone is a taunt.
Ranma you may be in danger of furthering your LGBTQA+ education.]
no subject
[Ranma can't see it of course but Alhaitham's expression is... not as threatening as one might think it is.
But also unlike Kaveh he's aware of the company that they have, so—]
Mehrak, standby mode.
[There's an affirming beep before the toolbox goes on its merry way, taking the Shellphone away with it.]
no subject
Yeah? Then do something about it, "Al".
[Rest in Pieces, Kaveh of the Kshahrewar.]
no subject
Much to his disappointment as he jumped up from his seat, blissfully ignorant to anything else going on as the camera feed switched to their decor.]
Wha- Hey! No fair, the fight was just getting good! Go back, I wanna see them pound each other in the ground!
[He whined like a child, hitting his fists on the table and spilling his popcorn and soda all over him.]
