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!!!

[Not that he minded! It was a very nice compliment and yet, here he was trying to act like a kid at the same time? How was he suppose to feel??]
But that is what I'm doing. I figured I should use this time to relax and be a kid for once. It's just a little strange when you're in a new world and trying to be a normal kid too.
no subject
[Even though Crow isn't that old himself. He's the youngest member of his band, but he's done with his school days. It gives him an excuse to be a little immature.]
no subject
[Why would anyone want to drink to the point where they'll throw up?]
no subject
It's not always fun being an adult, so we like to have fun doing things we enjoyed as a kid or do the things we couldn't as a kid. Like I still play video games when I'm not too busy with work and I like playing competitive games like volleyball, ping pong or badminton.
[What's so competitive about badminton, though? Apparently, no one has planned with Crow and his bandmates to know how extremely they play it.]
Stuff like that! You got any hobbies you enjoy?
no subject
[Or at least, that's what he had often heard about adults who do have those kind of hobbies.]
But I play video games too! And play soccer sometimes or go for a run? To be honest with you, I never really had much time for hobbies until now.
no subject
[He'd be rich with how many times his parents and teachers told him he needed to get a real career!]
You should definitely find something you enjoy doing! That's how I found out about my talent for singing because I would do it in my spare time! And now it's my career, although you don't have to turn your hobby into something lucrative!
no subject
[But then again, this is the same boy who was always having the internal struggle of wanting to be a kid and yet, still be taken seriously!]
Well, I never thought about being a soccer player. I know I don't want to turn myself into an athlete and run around without a shirt.
[...It makes sense in context.]
no subject
[ Although, that's a journey in itself. It's hard to break out of that mentality, especially within a stringent society. Ken will learn that with time and going through the motions.]
Well you don't have to take your shirt off. But yeah, just play soccer for fun, there's nothing wrong with that!
no subject
[He already made up his mind in trying to act like a teenager for once but it is difficult to break out of that mindset when he's already so mature for his age.]
no subject
As much as you hope to live freely, you'll always have regrets. Though, for your age, it's normal to still figure things out and make mistakes. It'll only ground you to the idea of who you want to be.
Don't think too hard about it. Live your life. Things will fall into place eventually.
no subject
By the way, I don't think I ever got your name! My name is Ken Amada and it's really nice to meet you!
no subject
Nice to meet you as well, Ken! The name's Crow! If you have the time, feel free to stop by the concert, too!
no subject
Thank you again for helping me out, Crow-san!
