002 ☼ [video]
[An incredibly shaky image appears to the community, but after a moment it stops moving around quite so much to show Éomer holding one arm high and the other low. This is due to the fact that his way of viewing the community is through a piece of parchment. He's become accustomed to the strange moving pictures that often appear and knows that by looking at the parchment, others can see his face. So he's unrolled the paper, and is holding it open.]
This is a virus, is it not? I have witnessed many on the community with a daemon, and though I know that mine has only recently appeared to me, I already have the knowledge of what a daemon is. How can this be so? Is this what a virus does to one? It places previously unknown knowledge within my mind?
[There is a blur of white behind him, but then he turns the parchment a bit and a magnificent white horse comes into view, showing that they are in a field of high grass.]
It unnerves him, this new knowledge
Fleta, I am not unnerved. Merely... dissatisfied with the idea of such things happening without my consent.
One could argue, that by using the community, you have given your consent.
And yet one could counter argue, that I had no choice in the matter. Since the community chose to reveal itself to me, were I to ignore its wishes, it would find another way.
[Fleta blows a breath out her nose in acquiesce.]
I see the clarity of your argument. But do not be unnerved by this new knowledge. It is only concerning myself and our connection, and it is well you know such.
I am not unnerved!
