189//video - open
[ It's late evening when the transmission starts, a velvety darkness competing with the warm light that spills out through the open door. Aidan is sitting in the greenhouse tonight. Maybe he got stuck out there after tending the plants. Maybe he needed some space, fresh air, distance. Comforts of home.
Whichever it is, it's clear that he's got a lot on his mind, features ever so often lit up by the cherry of a stolen cigarette. He doesn't smoke — not really — but tonight he does and those of you that've talked to him over the last few days might've seen this coming.]
I've been here... some 40 days now. Now, I know that ain't much of anythin' compared to most of you but after a while... it just kinda hits you, y'know? How long you've been here an'... how many people you've met. New ones every week. Some of 'em... heh, we lose a lot 'round here, don't we?
We should still remember 'em, but I'm wonderin' if we do. It ain't like we get to say goodbye or nothin', one day they're just... gone. And I've been thinkin'... no one really seems to talk about 'em once they're gone. Not for long anyway... and there's a lot. Every week... someone disappears.
I want to remember them. Simon and Nia. Nill and Haine. Yuri, Kanda... Ava, even though she dumped snow down my shirt. Yuta. Agito. Rapunzel. Nasuti, Reki, Kaylee... Lina. Th' people I never really got th' chance to know, like Gareki and Gemini and Kurama. Atsuro. Reki. Gamzee... Evy. That guy... what's his name. Atton. Road. Birdman. Yuuki... and Toph.
And Jane. [ He falls silent for a moment after that. That's a long list of names, but it always is. The difference here being...] Heh... back home, I was always th' one to leave.
[And with that he cuts the feed.]
