002 - BACKDATED TO JUST BEFORE THE FLOOD (VIDEO)

Aug 14, 2010 01:17

[When the camera flickers on, instead of getting a fabulously framed shot of a random Inmate/Warden, you get a close-up of what appears to be wood-grain. In the background, there's a series of loud bangs, followed by some gravelly voice mumbling something vague in Russian. The screen twists around, and OH THERE WE GO! It's Mikhail ( Read more... )

speaking russian like a boss, this is my polite face, stirring like a stubbly ukrainian witch, 90% of this is true, pretending he doesn't hate people, patchy sometimes forgets his 'a's

[Curious look...curious look...]

You are hurt. [Duh, Sveta.] You need to see someone about those injuries, Mikhail Bakunin.

[He smiles.]

I'm fine, but thank you for your concern, Miss...?

You're not. Oh...and I'm Svetlana Nazarova. I'm a warden and a doctor in the infirmary.

We spoke...before. At the camp.

Aside from a broken tooth, Miss Nazarova, [He gestures to where he's been prodding.] there's nothing time won't heal. Believe me, I have had worse.

[He then frowns for a second, because he's been desperately trying to purge the camp from his memory. :c]

...You're the girl from Moscow?

[She doesn't like it, but she's not going to argue. Instead, she turns the camera off and switches to Russian for ease.]

If anything gets worse, please let me know. And yes, I'm from Moscow.

I was a field-medic in the Soviet army. You needn't worry. [Paaaaause.] If you insist on helping, however, you're welcome to assist me with the sutures later. They are due out in the next couple of days, and I lack the tools to... deal with it myself.

[There's another pause. He's probably holding his cheek again right now, frowning big style.]

I wouldn't say no to a dentist, either.

The Soviet Army.... [Nope, she's not going to touch that.]

I'll do what I can. As for the dentist, I don't know if we have one and I'm not trained for that. I can give you something for the pain, though.

Yes. Some years ago now.

...And I suspected as much. Not to worry. If worst comes to worst, I'll simply remove it.

[Sigh...] What year are you from?

What, when I died? [He gives a short laugh, because dude, that feels wrong to say.] 2004. Why? What does it matter?

No, it doesn't matter. I was just curious.

[Long pause, longer pause.]

What happened that you are so hurt?

[INCREDIBLY DRYLY:]

I fell down the stairs.

[TOTALLY BUYS IT.]

You didn't break a bone, did you?!

Perhaps a rib or two.

If you won't come to the infirmary, let me go there, at least. There's not telling what could have happened.

[He gives another weak laugh.]

I'm already dead. What's the worst that can happen?
