-2- [Accidental Video]

[As the feed turns on, an inside of the room can be seen. There’s not much worth noting here, except for, maybe, the giant sword lying somewhere on the floor, close to the wall.

Sitting nearby the said sword, and right next to the wall is Ruca. He's gaze is distant and he seems to be deep in thoughts. A frown forms on his forehead and his eyes ( Read more... )

[Taps a finger against the microphone to get Ruca's attention without startling him.]

...Ruca? Your communicator's on. I should have mentioned this earlier, but they tend to switch on by themselves sometimes.

A-Allen.

[He sighs.]

...It seems like I have to be more careful with it.

[VIDEO] tothelastbreath April 10 2011, 14:20:35 UTC

[By now, Allen isn't sure if any amount of care will help, but--] It can't hurt to try.

[His smile fades to be replaced by a look of concern.]

...Are you alright? You look―[...]―tired.

[video] adreamminealone April 10 2011, 14:26:16 UTC

[There's a quick, almost habitual answer:] I-I'm okay, r-really. [Which is an obvious lie.]

...I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to worry you.

[VIDEO] tothelastbreath April 11 2011, 14:39:07 UTC

As am I ― I didn't mean to intrude upon your privacy, so consider us even.

[Never mind that the broadcast was accidental.]

But while we're both here, might I ask what's troubling you?

[VIDEO] adreamminealone April 12 2011, 10:09:20 UTC

[Ruca shakes his head.]

N-no... it was my fault.

[Even if it was an accident.]

And besides... i-it's nothing. [And yet again he wanted to say that everything is okay, but in the end-] I was just thinking... about home.

[VIDEO] tothelastbreath April 12 2011, 16:44:52 UTC

[Ah.]

Please don't feel sorry about it, I'm sure there isn't a single one of us here who wouldn't understand.

[VIDEO] adreamminealone April 12 2011, 16:57:58 UTC

[?]

...Does... that mean you don't think I'm just being troublesome?

[VIDEO] tothelastbreath April 12 2011, 17:12:37 UTC

What?

[A bit of a laugh that soon tapers off, leaving him with a mildly chagrined smile.]

Not at all, it's perfectly understandable. I think we've all been guilty of it at some point or another. Suppose we'll just have to get ourselves home so it'll stop being a problem.

[VIDEO] adreamminealone April 12 2011, 17:29:41 UTC

...But even if I come back to my world, I won't... [He won't be able to come back home. But he won't tell this to anyone. Not yet.]

...Allen... what is your home like?

[VIDEO] tothelastbreath April 12 2011, 17:52:10 UTC

[That's alright. Allen won't pry, especially not when it's clearly a sensitive topic. Instead, he answers without missing a beat to help cover up for Ruca's unfinished comment.]

Quite normal ― or at least that's what I'd like to think, haha. I get the feeling we all have different standards of normalcy here.

[And because his time spent with an inter-dimensional group of people has taught him not to take simple facts like these for granted:]

I'm from a country called England. It has its faults, [such as its continued attempts to colonise the known universe] but I like to think it's a decent place to live in for the most part.

[VIDEO] adreamminealone April 12 2011, 18:10:25 UTC

[He nods, looking at Allen with curiosity.]

...Can you tell me something more about it?

[VIDEO] tothelastbreath April 13 2011, 12:30:46 UTC

Of course. [beat] I assume this means you've never heard of it?

[VIDEO] adreamminealone April 13 2011, 19:51:06 UTC

[He nods.]

In my world - Naraka there are three main countries - Regnum, the country I'm from; Garam and Tenos. There's also a country of Ashihara, but due to the rising sea level most of it has been flooded. And there's also the country of Galpos, but this one is a colony of Regnum.

[VIDEO] tothelastbreath April 14 2011, 15:57:16 UTC

Naraka, [slowly, careful to pronounce it the exact way Ruca did] was it? I'm afraid mine's a little more complex. It's called Earth, and we have too many countries for me to keep track of.

[Not to mention international boundaries are kind of― Fuzzy at the moment, what with the more powerful countries busy building their respective empires out of everyone else.]

[VIDEO] adreamminealone April 14 2011, 16:42:13 UTC

I see... But it's okay, I imagine that there used to be more countries in my world as well, but... a lot of land has literally vanished under the water.

But the constantly rising sea-level is not the biggest problem. [He sighs.]

...The war is.
