Video breaks through

[harrydresden]

Harry is at a table with a few bunsen burners and some vials that make it look like a science project cooking but he's holding some ripped up pieces of paper above one of the beakers and staring a cock with fancy plumage that is looking back at him and speaking with a french accent. 

"Bonjour Monsieur Wizard, where is your lady, feminine, female, girl, le cluck?"

The wizard blinks once and looks slowly around as though trying to find someone throwing their voice. 

"Did you just speak in a Pepe Le Pew voice?"

"Intimacy is difficult at this range." 

"Scuse me?"

"You must call her Monsieur.  Pick up le telephone, speak sweet nothings, a touching gesture, no? You must break the ice, begin your courtship..."

The bird continues to talk and Dresden's face twitches a little.

And then he bursts into laughter.  Because come on.  It's talking like a cartoon character.  In the background the bird is flapping it's wings in excitement, it's descriptions of what Harry should do becoming more personal and the device clicks off.

Oh hey, it was recording, have you seen this?

Monsieur, is this your lady? Tell her she has a beautiful smile, sweep her off her feet, caress her gently.

I mean have you seen it? Of course you have, stars and stones it's hilarious!

[More laughing at the birds question before she shakes her head at him.] No, I'm sorry. I'm not his lady. I'm happily married to someone else.


[And to Harry;] There was one outside my window earlier. It was trying to get in. It spoke nothing but french, though, so other than getting in the house I have no idea what it wanted.

[harrydresden]

Non non non, it is but a small difficulty to overcome, if you truly love her!

It's so much funnier as Pepe. Although I imagine if this keeps up all day I'll want to roast it. Not yet though, it's still funny.

[charring]

If you need help, I'm pretty good with fire.

[harrydresden]

We should do fireworks on New Year. Could be fun.

[charring]

That sounds like a lot of fun.

[harrydresden]

Might be good to have some extinguishers around just in case, considering our uh... skill set. But I bet we could put on a great show.

[charring]

Oh, definitely. And I have a friend who sells some amazing fireworks, too. He might want in on this.

[harrydresden]

There can never be too many explosions.

omg i love them

[charring]

[It is suddenly very tempting to tell Harry about the time she blew up a government run facility. Very tempting.] This is very true.

LOL

[harrydresden]

[They will sometime have to trade stories.]

I think you're the first person who's ever agreed with me on that.
