*The man in the video feed looks like he's seen better days. He has blood trickling from his lips and nose and just looks generally bedraggled and beaten-up.

His eyes ferret about dizzily before he speaks*

....Am I dead?

Obviously not.

[he_is_wild]

Are you sure?

[madeinoblivion]

Well you're awake and talking, aren't you?

[he_is_wild]

Sure, sure, but what does that prove?

[madeinoblivion]

That you aren't dead yet.

[he_is_wild]

It's called an "afterlife", kid.

[madeinoblivion]

If that's true, then after-life feels a lot like life, so...I wouldn't count it as too much different.

[he_is_wild]

So every religion was wrong!

I don't mind it. This place just seems like a bit of a fixer-upper is all.

[madeinoblivion]

There was just an earthquake, a couple weeks ago. Most things around here need fixing.

...so Jinx knows you, huh?

[he_is_wild]

Earthquakes can really make a bad city even worse, eh?

Sure seems to! But I was a showman back home. Lots of people knew me.

[madeinoblivion]

No kidding. The stadium was like a three ring circus, while it was used as a shelter.

A showman? My uh...my brother works at the Felton Theatre. Just on stage crew. But they have that kind of stuff here. Jinx too, she's on the dance line.

[he_is_wild]

Well!

Sounds like a place to practice my powers of prestidigitation!

[madeinoblivion]

Pre...stidigitation?

[he_is_wild]

Magic, kiddo.

[madeinoblivion]

Oh! Mr. Cohen loves that stuff.

[he_is_wild]

Ho ho, I'm sure he does.

....Who's that, now?
