CW: CHARACTER DEATH


[ The woman in the video is in her 30s, her distinctive hair loose around her shoulders, the white stripes making her pale skin quite noticeable. She shifts nervously as the message begins to broadcast, her expression uneasy while her eyes don't quite focus on the camera. Sure, she's looking in that general direction, she's just... not actually seeing anything. After a few moments, she finally speaks, southern drawl thick with nerves that make the words waver slightly. ]

Has anyone... Has anyone died recently? Here, on the station?

[ A pause. ]

Has anyone else died and woken up again?

[ yeah, he doesn't envy her. but, it does instill a small sense of relief in him that, if he were to die (which he thinks is probably likely), he's not going to have to worry about a new sleeve or someone taking his stack.

apparently, this fucking station has its own built in way of resurrection. fucking imagine that. ]

Suppose it's good that it's not permanent.

[ that was about the only good thing about it, though. ]

Maybe you just gotta wait for someone else to die. See what happens to them.

[ A good thing that death isn't permanent. She can't share that opinion, not for herself - there's nothing she can contribute to helping the others, in her present state, she's nothing but a burden trying to stay out of everyone's way. But even in those moments of depression, she still has a spark of fight left in her, a flicker of her old self that struggles up to the surface of the darkness in her mind. ]

I hope it doesn't happen to anyone else. But I'm not naive enough to believe that it won't.

[ yeah, there's no way she'll be the only one to die. not on this fucking station, not with all the warning and creepy shit that he'd already seen. there would be more death. and soon enough, maybe they'd be making those pitiful 'we tried to save the world' recordings for the next unfortunate son of a bitches that ended up here. ]

Yeah, I think you're asking for too much there. This place isn't gonna be kind.

[ a vacation to the stars this was not. wouldn't the meths be so upset? ]

I'm just waiting to wake up to bodies and blood all over the place.

[ a morbid thought but an honest one. if it doesn't happen, he's going to be surprised. ]
