video; un: mako; it's a joint post y'all

[arclightning]

Hey everyone. Mako here.

[ The voice clips in just before the actual video appears for reasons that become clear in a moment: Mako steps back from where he's clearly set the Omni on a table to record what looks like a garage sale right outside the Raccoon Room.

A long table absolutely covered in little bits and baubles glints in the sun. In the center of everything sits Fritter the raccoon, Wu's omen, looking contrite and also sort of like she would like to leave. Her little ears are back and her tiny arms are crossed.

Scowling, Mako steps back to stand in front of the table, crossing his arms to match Fritter. ]

Some of you might have noticed some stuff going missing in the last couple months.

[ A pause. Mako glances back at Fritter, who huffs at him and holds up a winking blue heart-shaped gem on a sparkling chain. That... sure looks important. ]

Can't promise that what you lost is here, but there's a good chance it is. We'll be out here all day.

I'm sorry! [ Wu's voice pipes up from behind the camera ] It's my fault, really.

[ He turns the Omni around at a very selfie angle, pouting at the camera ]

I'm sorry that Fritter stole your stuff, it wasn't her fault! It was mine. Corruption just got me! I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I was mean to so many of you. Shiro, I'm sorry for making fun of your hair; Jessica, I'm sorry for throwing you out of the Raccoon Room. Manabu, I'm really sorry that I made you get a tattoo. [ Big grimace there ] I mean, I still think it looks great on you—

[ Mako clears his throat and Wu wrinkles his nose ] but that's not the point! I'm sorry for all of it. I'm better now! No more corruption here, no sir.

[ A beat. Mako narrows his eyes even more.]

Uh, please come get your stuff!

(( ooc: absolutely feel free to assume your character's random trinkets and stuff is here even if it wasn't called out in the post! Fritter is a monster. Also feel free to respond in action if anyone wants to wander by and/or come get their stolen stuff! ))

[ Wu can feel that, and looks at Mako with a soft smile. It feels good, to have their little family. The three of them, in this for the long haul.

But that doesn't mean Mako gets off easy ] Had what? [ He has no idea what you're talking about, hubby! ]

You would have been a great little thief! I don't know if that's a good thing... Mako, how can you get mad at Kai for being good at stealing things when you were also good at stealing things? Bo, tell him he's being a hypocrite again.

[Uhuhuhuhu this is fun. Being friends and jointly bullying Mako with Wu is fun.]

All is fair in love and thievery. I think he was mostly mad at Kai because it just went to show how rusty he's gotten.

[Does this also make Bolin a hypocrite because he has literally said how glad he is that they don't have to be criminals anymore? Yes. Does it count when bullying his brother? No. No it does not.]

—!

[ They are.

They are teaming up on him.

They are absolutely teaming up on him, and Mako kind of fluffs up like an awkward bird, staring at the two of them with his mouth slightly slack, taking that all in. His husband and his brother on a unified team... versus him. ]

[ It's cute but also, it has to stop immediately. Mako's mouth twists. ]

Who called his act from the beginning? I seem to recall somebody trying to adopt him after believing every word of a textbook sob story.

in here real fast sorry wu

[pabugotmoves]

Pssht, yeah sure, but you called it and he still robbed you.

[arclightning]

[ THE DIRTIEST LOOK ]

[pabugotmoves]

[SHRUG! The truth stings, hermano.]

[royalfling]

[ Pat pat pat on Mako's chest ]

I know you did, big guy. You called him from the beginning! But Bolin has a point. And Fritter did rob you, too...

You might still be rusty there.
