[The camera flips on when it falls out of Tommy's hands and clatters to the floor. He's perfectly, eerily still for what seems like ages, wide eyed and horrified, staring at the 'berry. There are tears welling in his eyes, but he blinks them away, and finally rises to his feet, angrily sweeping a lamp off the coffee table and sending it crashing ( Read more... )

[To anyone who hasn't seen the temporary island, this scene would be rather random and confusing. It seems nice here. Peaceful. The screen is tilted and shows the fake sky for a moment before the person holding it can actually be seen. He shouldn't be human ... but he is.]

Lost.[And he sure looks it too. He's holding a ratty umbrella, even ( Read more... )

[the feed shows Elle sitting on the bed in her old suite, despite the fact that she could really be anywhere she wanted right now. Unlike most people this week, she doesn't look happy. She just looks sad, exhausted, and worn out. Her eyes are red]

[The feed flashes on to the closeup of a squirrel, with a ribbon tied around its neck. It seems to have turned the berry on, all by itself! What a smart squirrel. Oh, and look, there's another! And another, and another, and ( Read more... )

She opens the bottle ( Read more... )

[The feed comes to life and there is some shuffling as a small set of hands set the piece of technology up upon a surface. It's strange considering the device that it is coming from, but it soon becomes clear that this is not the Timothy that normally, though rarely, graces the network. When a face does appear, what the view is greeted with is a ( Read more... )

[The video flashes on, and Doreen's missing her trademark uniform. She's dressed down in jeans and a too-big shirt that obviously isn't hers, and yes, the tail looks hilarious in jeans. And she's absolutely filthy. She holds up a container of bleach in one hand, a sponge in the other, and several rags are thrown over her shoulder.]So, Spring ( Read more... )
