three rabbits // video
[The little AutoReiv on the screen looks troubled today as the turns on the feed. The NV is propped up on a table as she sits on the floor, leaning forward into it so close that her face takes up much of the video, and what little there is so see behind her is only a blank wall.]
Timothy! Timothy! I saw you in my dream! Are you really here? Are you cold? You would have said something right away if you were, right? Because you'd be scared and you'd want help right away! So why haven't you said anything yet, Timothy?
It's okay if you're here and you're too scared to say anything! I'll come to you first, just like before! We can play hide and seek or color or anything you want! I won't even copy you this time, I learned how to draw from my imagination, just like you told me! All happy memories, because that's what you asked me to draw.
...Is it because you're sad that you died? That's why you don't want to come out? Your mom was really sad for you, and I was sad because you stopped talking to me and we couldn't play anymore, and they told me that it's impossible to replace a person when they die. You helped me learn that, Timothy.
So you can keep hiding if you're sad, and I'll come seek you, okay?
