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?

[creatio]

what kind of accident?

( And because it probably needs to be asked. )

was it you? the one who woke up again?

( Which is maybe a nicer way than asking if she was the one who died. )

[ Everyone wants details. Next time something like this happens and she announces it to the world, might as well just all in and tell the whole story up front. ]

Yeah, it was me. I was in the gym when we lost gravity and I drowned in the pool water.

[ Thank goodness for text giving her the excuse of brevity. ]

[creatio]

oh.

( And there was Clary the day after, cleaning up blissfully believing nobody had drowned in said pool. )

i'm sorry. that sounds really awful.
but you came back, so that must mean there's something that saved you?

[theycalledmeacurse]

[ It's not exactly something you advertise, at least not right away. ]

I don't know. It's... Sometimes it doesn't feel like I was saved.

[creatio]

because you're back here?

[theycalledmeacurse]

No, back in the beginning I actually liked it here. But then everything started... being different.
