[Hey, Anatole. Do you know what you haven't seen in a while? (Or maybe ever, but that time is about to end.) Catbutt. That's right. This is catbutt, the extreme closeup edition, and it's meowing out the other end as if the world is going to end ( Read more... )

[It may be a trick of the mist that she looks so pale, but it's a quick shift and the screen's panning (possibly not purposefully) the edges of the destroyer statue, the patch of blackened ground where a criminal was recently apprehended. It's not really about that, though ( Read more... )

[The screen is white, the very edges illuminated as it zig zags, pulls back and - hey, that's flesh - the edge of a shoulder maybe?

Why, yes.

Another zip (blonde hair) and back (something ceramic?) and up and---

---oh, look, it's bathtime.There's a washcloth laid across Lilly's eyes, and thank the universe for strategic bubble placement, right ( Read more... )

[The shakiest of shakycams is presenting this feed, hip level and offering a view from the edge of the city. The roar of the bike's engine drowns out any sound that might be heard, which is all well and good, but then the engine cuts and drowning that out? The rumble of the wall that threatens to come down next to it.]

...the hell?

[The Forge is off ( Read more... )

[The settings are switched to voice, but sometimes it glitches. Maybe it's not a glitch at all but the mist being ...playful? Anyway, just the tail end of some footage, here - the blackened edge of a tunnelman's heel, and then it's voice.]

Did anyone actually see what happened to the man they found this morning? I find it hard to believe that ( Read more... )

[But it's Lilly and Ezio from 1:40]

[Green fills the Forgescreen (Spike’s if you look for that sort of thing). Zooming out, it's green and grey (or is that st▒tic?)  the climb of ivy up the side of a modest looking cottage. And behind it, penned in by a small wrought iron gate, is a garden. (Zoom in!)  Green again.  (Out.) The gate's circle is broken in places, and moving toward ( Read more... )

---here. Please. Let me help you...

[Static after Lilly's voice. And then the edge of her couch. It's funny how she's gone out of her way to make it look as much like home as possible, not that anyone here would know ...except maybe the person attached to the extra pair of feet in the frame. A woman's shoes ( Read more... )

[Hands turning something over - something shiny - and something not. Spatterdash light from a flickering lantern somewhere offscreen reveals that it's two badges. They'd be identical if one weren't bent to all hell - discolored by dirt (and the caress of Mist? Is that blood? Rust, even?) and whatever else lay beneath it when it had been easily ( Read more... )

[Tales To Warm the Blood, huh? Interesting, because her blood doesn't feel very warm at all. It's evident she's rattled from the way she keeps glancing over her shoulder (and in front of her, too) as she loads an odd looking little gun.The feed shifts between video and audio several times (the muffled sound of purring the only notable thing during ( Read more... )
