[It's... very dark. After a moment, an off-screen light flickers to life, revealing a Justin who looks far more disheveled and dirty than usual. There's an uneven dirt wall directly behind him. The camera is close; he's clearly not working with a large space.]

Four feet down. I've been digging off and on since Tuesday and I'm only four feet down ( Read more... )

...I don't think you'll find anything. I hope you don't, anyway.

Be careful out there, okay? The graveyard is... a weird place. And I don't think a nice one.

It would be interesting if I did. With the advanced technology here, who knows what we could do with the dead. I'm not sure I would want him back, though.

I will be.

I'm down to five and a half feet. The dirt's looser the deeper I go, and the hole doesn't have to be as wide farther down. I haven't found anything so far.

I don't-- I can't-- believe the Deities could do that. Not to everyone who came, even if there are graves.

I... it's not that I don't want to know what's there, I just couldn't do it. The thought makes me feel a little sick.

absinthe_eyed July 17 2010, 05:20:47 UTC

It would be out of character for them.

You'll find out. I'll tell you what I find, although I doubt there's anything here other than dirt and worms. If there is something, though, we can't afford to not find out.

had_not_lived July 17 2010, 06:20:13 UTC

That, too.

Yeah, I suppose you're right about that. I'm glad there're people willing to do it, though, and that I don't have to.

There is something strange about being in an open grave when you're dead. Stranger because it's his grave...

had_not_lived July 17 2010, 18:42:09 UTC

I haven't been there since-- since the time the barrier started to break up.

absinthe_eyed July 17 2010, 23:11:08 UTC

Oh...

It's different than it was.

had_not_lived July 18 2010, 01:57:38 UTC

It's the same in all the important ways, for me.

absinthe_eyed July 18 2010, 03:14:05 UTC

In what--

Neil? I found something.

Wh-

[ulp.]

what did you find?

[audio;] absinthe_eyed July 18 2010, 03:31:40 UTC

I don't know. Not a body.

[A pause. A muffled thud as the network device hits the ground.]

[ooc: Er... no more replies!]

[audio;] had_not_lived July 18 2010, 03:33:56 UTC

Justin?

Justin?

[audio;] absinthe_eyed July 18 2010, 03:38:20 UTC

[STATIC!]
