048: Darc [Video]

[darc_nidellia]

[The feed switches on to show Darc, arms folded over his scarred chest and an expression caught somewhere between bemusement and irritation painted across his face. It's been a while since he was last seen on the network - over a month, in fact, though for him it seems longer - and he's looking worn out, a little bruised and blood-smeared, having

[Well... Lavi can't recall talking with Darc past the guy's birthday in Haven. Lavi briefly flicks on the video to give him a smile and a wave but the feed switches to text.]

I haven't seen them yet but I'll add them to my list of things to look for.

[He gives Lavi a perfunctory nod in return, then a mildly quizzical glance in regard to the use of text]

Alright. Thanks.

[A pause whilst he thinks about it]

List of things. So this is happening to everyone, then? [As usual, he hasn't bothered to check the network] And you can't talk...

Everyone is missing something, Tyki was the first that found something was...missing. I lost my vocal cords, though I was already used to not talking.

[darc_nidellia]

Have you...found them?

[He scowls a bit]

This place is as fucked up as ever, I see.

[historyrabbit]

No, not yet. I've been looking everywhere I can though.

Of course. You been caught up on what happened?

text;

[darc_nidellia]

Huh. Well. I'll let you know if I see them?

[He knows what vocal chords look like, from having ripped out a few throats in his time o_O]

Not yet. Anything I should know about?

[historyrabbit]

Thanks. I've been looking for a jar, they wouldn't leave them just hanging around. Right?

Everyone almost got lobotomies last week before Val stepped in and put a stop to it. Mostly everyone, there are some people it didn't effect.

[darc_nidellia]

Hmm. No idea, you never know with this fucking place. But I guess a jar or something would make more sense...

[He frowns a bit]

Lobotomies?

[Not something they have in deimos society]

They released a gas that messed with our brains to make us docile and unemotional. Usually they cut your head open and do it but they made a gas.

[He makes a face]

At least they weren't cutting people up. Still sounds shitty though. Everyone's alright, now?

I think so, the effects wore off of me on Friday but everyone seemed back to normal by Saturday.

Week before that was an off week, then before that the plants were alive again, and then mudpits everywhere.

[darc_nidellia]

Well...that's something I guess.

Yeah, I missed all that stuff. I guess mud everywhere couldn't have been that bad, right? I dunno about the plant thing...

I was still injured so it was hard to get around.

[darc_nidellia]

Huh. Well...I guess that must have sucked. It's not like stuff in this place is ever designed to be alright.

It made it difficult to get to the bathroom or keep wounds clean. But I managed fine. So did everyone else.

[darc_nidellia]

Hmm. That's probably the best we can hope for, most of the time. This week seems kinda annoying and definitely fucked up, but it could be worse.
