003 [Video]

[The video feed turns on to show what is probably a strange pair of people to be making a post together. It's also a really, really important post about an incredibly important subject.

Chris offers a small grin and a wave at the camera.]

Okay, so, I feel like I should say that I'm not announcing anything horrible about monsters this time. Just... Making that clear upfront.

[Is everyone relieved? Good.]

Instead, Cashmere and I are taking a super important poll.

[He glances toward Cashmere, waiting to see if she wants to continue from here.]

Very important. [ She agrees and pauses for a moment, fixing her hair in the camera. ]

I'm sure you’ve all noticed Chris and I have something special in common. So we need to know who else out there shares our special quality. Are you blonde?

[ Yes, she is serious. ]

We're here to make sure those of us who are blonde are having the most fun. If you're not having fun, we’ll think of a way to fix that.

[ She glances to Chris. Ideas?

Chris looks over at her in response, then fixes the video with a serious expression.]

Yeah. And if you are having fun, could you like... Tell us your secrets? Because that'd be pretty awesome.

[That covers the totally important stuff, he thinks. Any last remarks, Cashmere?]

Non-blondes need not reply. [ That should win some friends. ]

[ alcohol, huh? ]

Just to warn you, Chris' jokes get even worse when he drinks! [ and if you think they're bad now... ]

[64th]

I'd wondered. He seems like one of those kinds of guys, you know?

Then again maybe i'll just let him get drunk and set him loose on the network.

[cowardley]

I think it's my duty to keep him from making a total fool of himself, but if you let me join this blonde club as an honorary member I may look the other way!

[64th]

Ooh, now that is intriguing. But what is everyone else going to say if they find out I bent the rules for you?

[cowardley]

I'll just say I'm a strawberry blonde!

[64th]

That - that is actually a pretty good excuse.

[cowardley]

[ She grins cheekily, and singsongs: ] I know.

[64th]

Okay, you're in. But if anyone gets annoyed I'm blaming Chris. [ she grins. ]

[cowardley]

I am so right behind you on that! [ Blame Chris! He's an easy target! ]

[thechoiceisyours]

H-Hey! There will be no blaming Chris!

[It's the most righteously indignant tone he can manage, and totally fake.]

[64th]

Why not? You look pretty blame-able.

[cowardley]

I dunno, Chris, it's kind of two against one right now!

[64th]

It's the niceness, right? Nice people are easy to blame.

[cowardley]

Yep, plus he's adorable when he gets flustered!

[64th]

Adorable, huh? [ she raises an eyebrow. ] are you two an item?

[cowardley]

Y-Yeah. [ She seems hesitant, at first, but then becomes more confident, nodding her head. ] Yeah, we are.

[64th]

[ she grins. ] That's cute.

At least if you're stuck here, you're stuck together.

[cowardley]

I wouldn't want to be stuck anywhere without him.
