[Accidental Video]

[maddest]

[The PCD drops, and Break makes a noise rather like a shriek of pain, clutching at the eye usually covered by the fall of his hair. Eye socket, rather; it was ripped out a long time ago. And now, with his one good eye, he's seeing her.]

It isn't real, it isn't real, it isn't- someone out there, tell me it isn't- it isn't real, it isn't-

[He backs up fast, connects with the wall, and looks down at the PCD with his one good eye, not minding, for the moment, that the scars that he usually conceals carefully are visible.]

-is it?




Alice?

[saucey]

You okay?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Do you see her?

[saucey]

Nope.

[Video]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Because she isn't there.

[He turns the camera around the room, so Sasuke will be able to tell him if she's in a corner.]

[Video]

[saucey]

Yeah. You're alone in the room.

[Video]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[Looking back into the camera.]

I'm quite sorry, I simply... lost my grip on the moment.

[tsengsilence.livejournal.com]

O-oi.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Hello? Yes?

[Video]

[last-was-hope.livejournal.com]

It's not real, Break.

[Video]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, of course, thank you.

[Still watching it, though. Her.]

[Video]

[last-was-hope.livejournal.com]

... it's hard to ignore them, isn't it?

[Video]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

They're persistent.

[He closes his remaining eye.]

[last-was-hope.livejournal.com]

Have you ever practiced anything similar to meditation? I've found that controlling your breathing can actually help with it.

...Alice..? [She's heard the same thing from Oz, so now she's curious.]

[Video]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Nothing. Just... just hallucinations, I think.

[Video]

[jam-lover-13.livejournal.com]

You're hallucinating. It isn't real. Certainly not.

[Video]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Oh, but it looks that way, doesn't it, B?

[Video]

[jam-lover-13.livejournal.com]

Of course it does.

The animus are good at what they do...

[Video]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Talk to me. Distract me.

[Video]

[jam-lover-13.livejournal.com]

As if that was so easy...
I'm terrible at small talk, that's official.

How are the candy shop plans doing?

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

Nope... probably not real.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

It would be just like the animus, though, hm? To get us all saying that, then drop a lion in our midst?

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't put it past 'em.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Nor would I. Still, this time, I think you're right. It isn't real.

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I saw some weird shit earlier. I'm hoping that wasn't real, either.
