Day 220; ⛎ | Video
[Caliborn is somewhere behind the recording apparatus of his communicator. All that is visible is a blank Sector 2 apartment wall.]

Have you buried yourself in some closet. Wrapped in a blanket. Hoping for the big scary monster to go away. Or maybe you've just distracted yourself? With some bullshit I probably don't care about. So don't share.

Then, hey.

Let. Me. Help.

[Now it's pointing out the window, soaking in a full view of the occasional bit of tentacle. The sounds are not too strong yet, but that's why Caliborn is a helper. His androgynous, sharply dramatic voice intones in time with the pounding.]

Clang.

Clang.

Clang.

[And then he turns the camera around on himself, but only so that the lower half of his face is visible. The part with the lopsided and mean toothy grin, and the incoherently adorable red bowtie.]

How long. Until it breaks through. And we all die?

Do you think it will eat us. Or does it just. Want to taste. Your fear?

	[Dismissive.] More than enough. This is all just. A really annoying distraction from the point. Are you scared yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm no more now than I was a few minutes ago. [Why does he keep asking about that?] Is there something wrong with not being afraid? You are persistent about it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ugh. Because it's boring to be so calm and matter of fact. Where is the screaming. The rioting. The chaos?? Near death experiences. Are no good. If people aren't experiencing them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He talks in such a strange way, Klara is noticing.] There really isn't much of a point to being afraid of death. People are afraid because they want to live, but if we don't get a choice either way, why be afraid? We should just...accept it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He pauses, and then grins slowly at that.] Heh. Heheh. Why not both? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lostababyfang 2013-06-06 03:12 am UTC (link)
	Both? [Now he's confused her.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-06-06 03:14 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. Like. Accept you're going to die. And then scream about it a little? [That may or may not have helped it make more sense.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What good would that do? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-06-06 04:22 am UTC (link)
	It would be more fun for me. Isn't that enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lostababyfang 2013-06-06 04:25 am UTC (link)
	...I don't know you well enough for that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-06-06 04:28 am UTC (link)
	... What does that have to do with anything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lostababyfang 2013-06-06 04:32 am UTC (link)
	I just meant if you were my friend then maybe it would be enough. But...you're not. [So obviously you being amused is not enough to make her do something that she doesn't consider rational.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Caliborn sighs heavily.] Okay. This is going. The same predictable direction. As nearly every other bitch I've talked to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lostababyfang 2013-06-06 05:08 am UTC (link)
	[That word. She might actually be annoyed now. She's not used to feeling this...sense of distaste towards someone.] Maybe that's because you can't think outside of your box enough for it to go any other way. (Reply to this) (Parent)
