[Video] Backdated to Monday

[Fred's hair is messy; the reason quickly becomes clear as he runs a hand through it. Behind him the ex-cat bounces around the room.

He sighs.] That... could've gone a lot worse.

Long story short, my family knows about the network, and us, now.

[He sighs again.] And I told my sister I'd try to get some of your autographs for her. Especially... [He looks down, reading from a list:] "Bugman, Tavia, and Puff Bonnet, but really everyone." [Looking up again, he continues,] Knowing her, they'll probably get showed around, so if you've got an identity you don't want out there I'd suggest you bow out. And I just told her I'd ask, so don't expect a lot of pressure about this.

So that's... over here. How are you guys?

How'd your family take it?

[seriallylucky]

Pretty well, actually. Better than I thought they might. [No yelling, no breaking things, no kicking him out of the house. All of these crossed his mind when the necessity came up.]

I think the weird things that've been going on made it more plausible.

[ex_extraordinary330]

Hey, good for you. [ and it's not dickish, it's just... friendly if anything. glad that someone's got it going on pretty well for them. ]

The weird things are exactly why i'm not saying anything.

[seriallylucky]

Yeah, I can understand that. But when that thing [gesturing toward the bouncing blob in the background] showed up I kind of had to. That or move out suddenly, and I'm not ready to do that.

[ex_extraordinary330]

[ .... welp. ]

Yeah, I can see why that'd make a hell of a big difference. [ he snorts. ] So as long as I don't get one of those, i'm safe.

[seriallylucky]

Yeah, good luck. [At least he sounds genuine, rather than sarcastic.] I didn't get a lot of warning.
