[The device flicks on. Static.

Then, purple- only purple. White. Break's coat, the beautiful off-the-shoulder, white one that he lost almost a year ago during that episode with all of the blood. It's back in one piece.]


What-

[Then the feed flicks off. On again, very briefly, as he bangs it on the table. Sound.

Then to video- there's Break's elbow, Emily's dress.

On. Rap rap rap. Someone's knocking it against a table to see if it can be broken open.]


-why does it keep chirping, Emily?

[This is almost exactly how he arrived, nearly two years ago to the day. And here we are, come full circle, about to smash the PCD on a table corner in idle, non-technologically oriented curiosity.]

Just a week or so later. Funny how time works.

[A light flick.]

I need more information on the basic workings of the city itself.

Did you know all my secrets, Undertaker?

There's no real form of government. Food, supplies -- sometimes appear. We scavenge to survive.

There is a budding.. police force of sorts. You spoke out a lot against it.

Mhm. Go ahead and walk behind me, I'll take you around things in the road.

[Fallen streets signs, etc. Shattered glass. Rusted cars. Demolished buildings. There are no normal city sounds, but it smells like a city. It's mostly quiet.]

Most of the buildings are tall and made of brick. It's rare to see one over three stories, because they're caving in by now. Every once in a while we'll hear one fall. Some are held up by creeper plants- if you feel one, get away quickly. They'll strangle you if they get half a chance.

[Al reaches down and carefully moves a rusted, crushed bicycle from the road.]

There are skyscrapers toward the middle of town, and some intact buildings. In the buildings that aren't, the rabbits and the hellcats have nests. The rabbits are fast, but cowardly, and the hellcats, if they get a hold of you, have to be killed before you can get them off. So if you hear something small coming toward you, be ready to either run or kill it.

[He looks back.]

If it has a bell and rings while it's coming toward you, don't hurt it. That's probably my cat.

I wouldn't say all of them. We told eachother stor~ies from time to time.

[Hooking an arm with his, only a tapping of fingers as warning, ready to lead him off.]

You knew one of mine that was more the answer to a question never asked.

[Something about Break's answer gets a faint smirk] Not that you remember.

What did you want to talk about?

The Animus run the place. They'll play games with your mind, your body, the environment....

There are people who want to leave, and people who want to stay. It's best to keep your opinion to yourself.

A riddle it shall remain, my answers aren't always given so freely.

[An arm pat as he walks on at an easy pace.] As gentle as I can be~
