[The feed opens to silence. A long, long silence. When Lily speaks, her tone is an obviously forced, strained calm.]
Where is Kage's ID?
[Another pause.]
Where's B's?
[Here she tries to lock a post to Kage and B, but with no ID to lock to, ShipNET gives her an error message instead.]
Where are they? I can't - where did they go? They're not gone. They're here, they're just hidden. Right? They're hiding. Like a game. Haha - right? A game. It's just a game. Not a fun game, but it's... just... a game. It's a game.
[Pause.]
It's a GAME.
[No, Lily. It's not.]
They said they'd never LEAVE ME they left me ALONE here all ALONE alone FOREVER this ISN'T HAPPENING.
[Shriek.]
Kage liked me. He liked me, because he couldn't love me, but that was okay - that was always okay, everything was okay. And B, I never saw B, he was always WORKING but I still LOVED HIM so much, I loved them BOTH so much.
They loved me, right? Right, everyone? They loved me? Right? [...] Right?
[Pause.]
Ha - Chase's ID is gone too. Chase, he was - Chase is gone, they're all gone, WHAT DO I DO NOW?
[The comm crashes to the ground, still recording. In the background, furniture is being thrown. Glass is being broken. Mirrors shatter. Things rip, walls are dented. It sounds like a battleground.
And in the midst of everything - sobbing.
After ten minutes of this, the feed times out.]
