[ video ] January 12th; early evening

Dec 28, 2011 19:04

[ The feed opens to Link staring at the screen in a state of confusion... as if he can't quite remember why he turned it on. He's propped up in a hospital bed, looking, for all intents and purposes, absolutely awful. His face is heavily bruised and from what can be see of his torso he's bandaged quite thoroughly. Those familiar with pain medication ( Read more... )

[Video]//respectfully private. toomanypetals December 29 2011, 01:16:21 UTC

...Oi. The hell happened to you?

[ He may have regained his memories after returning here... but that doesn't make it any less of a shock to see Kanda. He stares at him in silence for a moment, clearly dumbstruck. ]

...You are not with Alma...?

[ Forgive his lack of tact, Kanda. The drugs will not make this an easy conversation. ]

video; private, good thing it is toomanypetals December 29 2011, 02:01:52 UTC

--How do you know that name?

[It's okay, bro, he's instantly distracted.]

video; private, good call broseph baked_inapie December 29 2011, 02:05:43 UTC

[ He looks properly confused as only a man high on morphine can. Were he in his right mind perhaps he could piece this together, but now... ]

You were sent through the Gate with him by Walker, I did not think that you would survive...

[ His expression grows distant as he leans back against the bed, murmuring under his breath- ]

I suppose that is not necessary to be returned here, is it...

video; private, he had no idea either. Good guess toomanypetals December 29 2011, 02:09:27 UTC

Alma's dead.

[He's pretty confused, too-- though he's getting this strange sinking feeling he knows where this is going. And it'll do him no good to harass the drugged out birdie right now... so he decides to cool his jets and ask the obvious question.]

What happened?

[ To say he's scattered is a bit of an understatement... and it's not just the painkillers. He stares in silence for a moment, trying to gather his thoughts. ]

A creature... Innocence, acting on its own without an Exorcist. It attempted to merge with Walker while he was imprisoned and was stopped barely in time by members of the Noah clan, and-

[ Even with the drugs he can remember it all with crystal clarity, summoning a seal long enough to hold Apocryphos in place while Tim was freed, and- ]

...I interfered with their attacker long enough to allow their escape.

[ He's not looking at the screen now, staring off elsewhere. He knew the choice he was making to protect his charge; even now, knowing what will happen, he has no regrets. ]

Re: video; private toomanypetals December 29 2011, 02:32:13 UTC

...Innocence? But--

[He cuts himself off. He was going to say that Innocence isn't sentient-- but then he remembers Lenalee's, and Allen's, and he's not so sure anymore.]

...Tch. What then?

video; private baked_inapie December 29 2011, 02:43:30 UTC

That is all I remember.

[ Not entirely a lie; things got pretty fuzzy once the so-called Cardinal began his beating, after all. Either way it's a subject he's clearly avoiding. ]

All I know is that Walker was able to escape.

Re: video; private toomanypetals December 29 2011, 02:49:02 UTC

...Fantastic. You better not have gotten yourself killed, two-spot.

[You're his favorite trollbait.]

video; private baked_inapie December 29 2011, 02:55:49 UTC

[ That earns a full-on flinch, a reaction he would have been able to control in other circumstances. The almost-playful jab drudges up the memory of staring weakly up at the creature above him, staring at its fist and realizing it was slick and wet with his own blood. ]

...How long have I been gone?

[ A change of subject seems good right about now. ]

Re: video; private toomanypetals December 29 2011, 02:57:23 UTC

...

[Good job, he saw that.]

Tch. Never knew you to behave like the sprout, two-spot.

[Okay, okay.]

About a day.

video; private baked_inapie December 29 2011, 03:09:43 UTC

[ A really obvious attempt on his part, but he's not willing to address the situation. It's just... too hard, right now. The next statement gets his attention however. ]

A day...?

[ But everything that's happened... ]

How is that possible? I was back home for... for months.

Re: video; private toomanypetals December 29 2011, 03:13:57 UTC

[He gathered. As soon as Link's sober, though, you can bet he's going to harass him for information.]

...A day. Tch, you know time is screwy here.

video; private baked_inapie December 29 2011, 03:58:50 UTC

[ Link will so be looking forward to that. He rubs at one temple, tugging his IV uncomfortably in the process. ]

I have yet to experience it first-hand. It is... disconcerting.

video; private toomanypetals December 29 2011, 04:06:06 UTC

Now you have. And leave that damn thing where it is. Sooner you recover, sooner you can leave.

[Kanda, you hypocrite.]

video; private baked_inapie December 29 2011, 05:04:04 UTC

[ That takes him by surprise. His arm stills, apparently taken aback by the display of... concern? ]

...I am not that bad off.

[ He really is that bad off. ]
