⇝001 // video

[the video's dark, but it's definitely video; the screen is completely black. there's the snap and clink of a lighter, but the fire isn't seen on the video, as if he's pointing it elsewhere from himself, or isn't aware the video's on; there's a deep inhalation and a deep exhalation, which sounds more like someone breathing through their teeth. it quickly degrades into soft, under-the-breath giggling. his voice is soft enough that someone might not be able to hear him unless they're trying.]

...eeeeveryone's... gone.

[he keeps that low soft breathy giggling up for a moment, and it almost sounds desperate.]


That's what it says. It says, everyone's gone.

I've never thought about it. What happens when everyone goes away.

But now, now... they're all gone. Gone, gone... gone.

[his giggling starts to get more frantic but it never gets louder; it sounds more and more desperate, and suddenly-- it stops. he makes a quiet noise, his voice low and quiet. for reference, it's the first four or so seconds.]

zhuzhuzhuzhu...

...but still so noisy.

Oh boy :|

[Gently, she rubs the pad of her thumb along his jawline.]

I'm not surprised. She's a witch, all they know is destruction. ...What specifically is she asking you to destroy? The sound? Your hearing...?

How would you even do that? Can you actually do that?

Medusa can't be telling you anything that will help you. He just wants you as a pet, he couldn't care less about your well-being. You don't matter in the slightest as far as he's concerned.

...She. As far as she's concerned.

[She shifts uncomfortably, resisting the urge to flop over on the bed or start wailing. Or both maybe. Both at once was a little tempting.] What's it like? Being trapped with her like that?

[She actually feels bad for him. He probably sits around a lot just waiting for her to be able to spare a minute to be with him. It would drive her crazy, appropriately enough.]

Like what we're doing right now?

[She feels it, and doesn't want to press. As much as she wants to know, she doesn't want to know.

She combs fingers through his hair gently.]


Right before you came here, the person who runs the tower sent us all home, to the wasteland home had become... [She shudders momentarily and takes a deep, shaking breath before continuing] Medusa was there, and no one else as far as I knew. I was curious if that was what your world was like. That's partially why I keep asking questions.
