The screen fades from black and Blair’s face comes into focus. She is sitting stiffly, looking as if she's debating what to say. Finally she holds her hands in her lap and shrugs.
"I'm getting a roommate," she says, a half-smile forming on her face. "I'm actually really pleased about it. It will be nice to not have to live alone. It's just... moving on isn't the easiest. I guess I thought if the apartment stayed the same he might just...come back. You know?"
There is a slight knock on the door, and without pause, Alastor bursts through the door. It is obvious from his body language and demeanor that he has something burning that he wishes to share. Acknowledging the camera, Alastor nods. “I’m sorry. There’s no easy way to say this, exactly, so I’ll just go ahead and ...say it...”
At the intrusion, Blair looks surprised (in a good way) and she mouths 'oh my god', thinking he's drunk or something. "Al! Hi! Uh.." She is cut off before she can continue, and she looks from him to the camera with wide eyes. When Alastor begins to speak, Blair’s face is amused though unsure of where he’s going with it. But her face fades to a look of shock and "Oh no... no.."
“...Um...” Alastor pauses to contemplate how to deliver the news. The suspense is pretty epic. “Blair. I love you. I’m in love with you. Always have been. Always will be... And, well... I think we should do something about it...”
Before he can continue, someone reaches in and pulls him out of the room. Left alone, Blair turns to the camera for a final look before quickly turning it off.
