[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?

Nope... probably not real.

[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.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Hallucinations are a common effect of sleep deprivation.

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I know. Just never been to that point before. I mean... I've been pretty close, but never to that point.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Really? What for?

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

Uh... err... for my job.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Another silent.

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

Silent?

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

These people that there are so many of. What are they called?

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

I don't get it. There's a lotta people of different kinds.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

The very serious ones.

[He paws at his eyes, lets out a sigh.]

I'm sorry, I haven't slept.

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

'Salright. Don't worry about it. Not many of us have.

Course... don't think some of my buddies would think of me as being 'serious'.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I don't think we've been introduced.

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

We've talked. [smiles]

Duo Maxwell.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Xerxes Break.

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

Nice to meet you.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Yes, though I can't help but wish the circumstances were better.

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I think everyone feels that way.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Most of the time, it's passable.

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

I could do without the events.

[Voice]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

So could we all.

[Voice]

[truedeath02.livejournal.com]

Not much we can do about it, I guess.
