Video | un: alberich (2nd week of Oct)
[The camera turns on and the first thing shown is the back of a horse's head and the slight jostle of both it and the cameraman moving. The horse is very obviously dark in color despite the grainy-ness of the video. It's clear they are also still in town although the buildings are a bit sparse as they move closer to the outskirts.
And then, the camera moves to another rider to the side. This horse is lighter in color and the rider is one Cloud Strife... looking just a little tense on the horse.
A chuckle sounds from behind the camera.]
I told you to relax, you'll make her nervous.
Wait a minute, are you recording—
[Then, there's an 'Ah!' sound as Kaeya remembered he was broadcasting.]
Hello, everyone. We are on our way to settle a commission but I thought I would share how well Cloud was doing with his first time on a horse. Not like your chocobos, eh?
[ Cloud feels. So put on the spot right now. So much so that his wide-eyed 'deer in the headlights' expression and voice catching with a stammer are well documented as he waves his hand at the camera as if wanting out of line of the shot. But from this far back, it just looks like he's awkwardly doing a jazz hand while holding the rein on his horse with the other. ]
Nope. Lot smoother.
[He turned the camera back to his own horse and pats her neck. Her ears flicker this way and that for a moment.]
Really now? Most people find the ride too bumpy during their first time. But not you, Amaya, you have always been an excellent horse.
[Amaya bobbed her head up and down, snorting in agreement. He chuckled again. He was doing this while holding the camera without too much jostle, after all.]
Anyway, the commission is an easy one so we will be back soon! Please do not be alarmed when we don't answer as we are headed out of town as you can see.

no subject
Yup.
[ He'd become acquainted with many of Teyvats denizens, but never into conversations of the mysterious Ruin Guards. And the only reason the Ruin Guards came up in the first place? Was because they were discussing the 'vehicle' that Ayato won and how to describe it to Cloud. He listens intently, waiting until Kaeya is finished as he leans forward to pat his horse along its neck. The country boy in him couldn't help it, giving some recognition and all. ]
On one of my first jobs in Midgar, I had to deal with a giant robot scorpion. [ ...little half frown. ] That fired lasers.
[ So, as far as "dangerous commissions" qualifications went? Hopefully Cloud passed. It was more a conversation piece regarding their "ambitious" subject. ]
