Video/Text; UN: cattletamer96
[ The video starts with a view of a large crow zooming in and out of the frame in a panic. Then BANG! There's a loud sound from off-screen that the camera spins over to the three-legged crow flat against the wall, before comically sliding down.]
Onyx, what are you doing?!
[ There's a hoarse rasp that comes from the person holding the camera. Reluctantly, he turns the camera view towards a bunch of blankets, and Crow's head pops out of the bundle. The spunky redhead isn't quite as energetic at the moment, instead, he looks a bit stressed out.]
It's an apocalyptic catastrophe!
[ Crow's words come out as a scratchy croak. His poor angelic voice! He sounds horrible! ]
I think I lost my voice! And I need to fix it before the concert! Help! It's a crimson emergency! And I think drinking milk makes it worse!
[ He can't stand to hear his voice like this, so he's going to dive back into his cocoon of blankets. He's not going to subject anyone else's ears to this dissonance either. Crow's familiar tries to comfort him by perching on top of the pile of blankets and gently tapping his beak against it. There, there. Crow stops the video but follows up with a text after:]
DOES ANYONE KNOW ANY HOME REMEDIES TO CURE THIS?!!!! I'LL DRINK EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN!!! I'LL DO ANYTHING EXCEPT SELL MY SOUL TO LUCIFER!! I JUST WANT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CONCERT, DAMN IT!!!

Oh, that's not how you always sound like?
[ He has no reference, don't blame him. ]
I'd suggest milk to help with the heat, but isn't your drinking so much milk to begin with that's causing more mucous and making your sore throat worse?
no subject
[ His voice is angelic, okay? Although, that's Crow's opinion as well. He sounds like Satan's pre-pubescent spawn now!]
I've been drinking milk since I was born! There's no way it's the cause!
[He's the son of dairy farmers and he's been consuming milk in large quantities to get taller. Sadly, it didn't work.]
Sounds like you're running out of solutions!
no subject
You could barely handle wasabi! I thought you wouldn't have the mettle to try anything else. What was it that you said... that you'd drink everything under the sun to cure this? How serious are you?
no subject
Who the fuck drinks wasabi like that and not die?!
[Crow gives Karma a look of suspicion, wondering what this kid is up to. The singer doesn't like having his words used against him, but he's well aware that he said it. He's also very desperate for his voice to get back to normal, too.]
Will it get you out of my room faster, if I am? I'm game for anything as long as my voice gets better!
no subject
[ It's not like wasabi will kill a person, with its "cold" heat that dissipates almost instantly, so Karma has very little remorse for this action. ]
Anyways, if you want me to leave, just say so. I came here to help you out of the goodness of my heart, y'know? No need to be ungrateful.
no subject
[Crow groans, feeling the strain on his throat the more he gets angry at the teen. He huffs at the "goodness of his heart" part, but this kid didn't have to bother.]
Fine! What other ideas do you have?
[And they better be good!]
no subject
It's supposed to heal anything that ails you. I'll only ask for a little bit of gold in exchange for it. Fair enough?
no subject
How did you even get that?
[It seems fair but was it the real thing? Crow reasons that the vial would be hard to replicate. So the offer does seem appealing to him, but at what cost? Unforunately, he's not rolling in coins.]
A little bit of coins? How much is that?
no subject
[ Whether or not Crow believes that doesn't matter and Karma doesn't care to prove himself either way. All that matters is that Karma has a bottle and he's willing to make a trade. ]
And it can be yours for the generous price of 2640 gold~
[ aka a little over 26 USD worth of gold, and very specifically the cost of something Karma needs to buy but can't afford yet. ]
no subject
Fine!
[There goes his rainy day money!
He walks over to a stash he's been compiling in a crimson velvet pouch. He pours out the metal into his hand, counting out the coins, before offering them to Karma.]
It's all there. You can count it yourself to make sure.
no subject
Thanks a bunch! Hope your voice heals up soon- I'd like to hear how you're supposed to sound like!
[ Byeeeeee
The bottle won't do anything, I'm very very sorry. It's been poured out already and used, and the liquid inside replaced with juice. ]
no subject
Sadly, Karma is already long gone before he could even chase him down. The next time he sees the teen, he'll have to give him a piece of his mind!]
