[video] backdated to earlier in the day
[Lord, but she's a sight today. Her hair's a mess, red-streaked in places, and there's dried blood all at her face, as if it'd come from her mouth in too-large amounts. There are also other large splatters of blood, up across her collarbone, but the camera doesn't show anything lower than that, so its source isn't readily indicated.
She's very still, and somewhat cold-seeming.]
The snow's begun. Winter lasts until the beginning of the coming year, of course. I look forward to heavier snows.
[Long pause. She frowns deeply.]
I look forward to that.
When it's deeper still, I may choose to lay in it. As it is, that might be mostly pointless...
...Snow is incredibly useful for cleaning, however.
Reality is a bit like dropping snow down the back of someone's shirt, I think. [She licks the back of her (bloodied) hand - it's an idle gesture.] So it's fitting that I woke up to see white...
-Ah. I'm going to walk the length of the island, by the way. Every single inch, so far as I can manage, and so perhaps I'll find a map, just so that I can cross everything off. I shall keep track of it, and if anyone else should see me walking... Let's make footsteps.
[Cough.]
Every single inch. I really will touch all of it. If you find me very heavy boots, I'll see how far into the sea I can walk, too. It will be a marathon. I will not stop until it is absolutely necessary, that's a good challenge, isn't it? Please support me in this magnificent effort.
But for now I'll take a last nap.
