A murder?

[VIDEO || several hours later]

[ridingfree]

[You are treated to the face of a young, blond woman who is silently staring down at the "camera", frowning deeply]

[notanarthropod]

... E-eh, hello? Miss?

[VIDEO]

[ridingfree]

[Frown deepening, she moves a bit further into frame before her eyes suddenly widen, and she immediately draws back.]

Whoa! [She tosses the camera (or whatever it is she's been holding) a fair distance away. The scenery flies by and then bounces violently as the device hits the ground, affording a view of the sky when it finally skids to a halt.]

[wearecowboys]

This is quite the list. Gets a little stale at the end, though.

[You are also treated to a young woman staring down at you. Managing to tear her bewildered gaze away for a moment, she glances around the immediate area, which you're unable to see; judging by the sky behind her, though, it might be safe to assume she's somewhere outside.]

*hours later, he sees this video, just as confused looking as she is*

...Hello?

[video]

[ridingfree]

[Another hour later, and the scenery has changed. She's inside now, her surroundings dark, but she looks no less confused.]

What is this...

[samriprosecutor]

Saturday, actually. Well, technically Sunday.

[ridingfree]

What?

[samriprosecutor]

It's an answer to a question, though I doubt it's the question you were asking. I take it these notes were meant to be private.

[ridingfree]

Most things written in a journal are.

[stripping]

Ah, I wouldn't write down anything not meant to be displayed to others in this journal, since that's what it does.

[ridingfree]

I see that.

Where exactly do these 'others' come from, and how many of you can see what I'm writing?

[stripping]

It depends. I'm writing to you from Japan, for example. I know of at least one person who writes from Spain, and a good number of others that don't come from any country you would recognize.

As for people... I would have to say about three hundred people are connected on this network.

[ridingfree]

Three hundred?

[immortal_vino]

Hey, I was there!

[ridingfree]

You were where?

[immortal_vino]

At the mediation. I was watching. Who are you?

[ridingfree]

Who are you?
