video ♑ 006
[The video is propped up against something in the table - the greenish tinge of the water outside the barrier is visible through the window behind Eyes' head. Mermaids swimming around outside the barrier are quite visible as well.
...And Eyes looks rather Not Amused.]
It seems like this city never fails to turn up new methods with which to amuse us. [Mm, coffee.] It leads to the question of whether such things occured prior to our arrival... but as usual, the locals seem to be rather silent on the topic.
You would think that-- [And he stops. Not because he lost his train of thought, but because... okay, he lost his train of thought. See, while he was talking, what he didn't notice is a couple of zombie thingies ending up on a nearby roof. And they were now, well, entering through his window. Which was just a little distracting.
The SFC is left hurridley on the table as Eyes stands, his chair pushed forcibly back in the process, the table shoved forward. The SFC clatters to the ground - the camera ends up facing up.
The angle means that it can only capture so much - the back of Eyes' head as he backs away far enough that it captures the chair he is brandishing instead; the advancing zombie mermaids. They are all what one would expect zombies to be - green and rotting and hideous looking. While two seem to be walking on both legs, one drags a leg and a half while another pulls itself along the ground with its arms, its fin dragging behind. It is this last one that sees the SFC.
It looms over the camera, all green and disgusting and missing one eye. And - as it picks it up and swallows it - it's also apparently missing part of the wall of its stomach, allowing a perfect view of what happens next, albiet upside down. The sound of sloshing stomach juices can be heard over a sickening crunch as a chair gets thrown at - and hits - one of the zombies, effectively removing it of a few limbs.
Somewhere through the sickly green is a clear wrong side up picture of one teenage boy, gun in one hand, the other pressed against his stomach - it's not too hard to guess why, a puddle of red forms around his fingers. There is a look of desperation on his face - he didn't come this far to be eaten by, well... half decomposed monsters. He pulls the trigger - but it's a little too slow and the tranq bullet embeds itself into the wall instead. The cause is evident - there is now one (1) arm flying across the room before it gets caught. And nommed. Mm.
Eyes is backed into a corner now - even more so than before. But not for long, because all that is suddenly visible is a flurry of green and grey and sickly skin and stringy hair and -- blood. A lot of blood. A lot of blood and severed half eaten limbs, and not all in the same place.
Their job done - they leave, the SFC still bouncing around - every now and then, a few fingers appear on the screen. Steam still rises from the cup of coffee on the table. Just as the zombie who now houses the SFC leaves the way it came however, the SFC tumbles out - catching one last shot of the room before it shuts off when it hits the ground.
It's not pretty. And they were zombies. It only makes sense that what remains of Eyes' brains are splattered across the wall.]
