02 | Dave's sprite [video]

[The feed opens to near darkness. After a second, it pulls back, revealing that it was pressed up against a wall. After another, it pushes rapidly back, making a solid clanking sound as it hits. After this has repeated a couple of times, it should be fairly obvious that someone is banging their 'berry against the wall

Dave...tell me you are not so far gone already.

[featheryasshole]

I'm not a vegetable, if that's what you mean.

[He's stopped the banging now, but he's still staring at the wall.]

[stubborn_throes]

So...care to explain what's catalyzing these shakespearian theatrics? [An overstatement but she's trying to drive a point home.]

[featheryasshole]

We need to go home. I'm making a way out.

[stubborn_throes]

You don't...seriously think that's going to work, do you...?

[featheryasshole]

I have to do something. It's the only thing I could think of.

[stubborn_throes]

Dave, I--

I...[And she seems to keeps spacing out and snapping back repeatedly.]

I...

I-I...

[featheryasshole]

[He finally turns from the wall to look at her, feeling vaguely concerned.]

Are you okay?

[stubborn_throes]

...
[She pinches the bridge of her nose.]

I'm not sure where my concentration went...

[featheryasshole]

I don't know either.

[SO HELPFUL.]

[stubborn_throes]

Yeah.

[Wait, shit, there was...a point to this conversation...what was it?]
...

Yeah.

[featheryasshole]

[...Nevermind Davesprite, he's just going to go back to hitting the wall again.]

[ecto_biologist]

Rose!

[NOT HER TOO GODDAMMIT]

[stubborn_throes]

...Don't worry John.
[She scratches her hand against her blond locks.] I've still got it together...

[ecto_biologist]

...Okay, good.

[A small sigh of relief.]
