VIDEO ✍ 008 --> Lari's Return from Hiatus

[inseine]

[The video opens to a blank white with a dim shadow at the left corners. It is a moving shadow. There is a faint, muffled rustling sound, and a black, fluid shape - a bedsheet - flutters. Now the indecipherable, severe mutterings of a man's voice can be heard.

The video feed jerks sharply. A bare, hairy foot kicks at the screen, gnarled toes grasping. There is an odd scraping, clanging sound in the background.]

Wretched bitch will pay for this, I swear it!

[The speaker, whose face and body is not visible beyond that reaching foot, does not seem to be aware of any voyeurs this morning.]

Yet it is safe enough for her to gallavant across town.

I outgrew childhood half a century ago!

We're keeping an eye on her. I've been checking in myself. [Nope, no leaving her stranded on a building this time!] Besides, she can't be far.

[Javert simply snorts indignantly. If he could reach his phone, he would have hung up on Snake right then and there.]

Evidently. Her workplace is near.

Are you finished giving me sermons?

[solidarity.livejournal.com]

Just about. Need me to call her for you?

[chose-death.livejournal.com]

You do understand this conversation would not have happened if I could properly reach my device.

[Good to hear from you too, friend. Snake is just going to ignore that.]

Right. I'll give her a call.

Good. My unending thanks.
