8th Flight | Video

[ When the screen blips on, there's not much that can be seen. The room is dark.

But--a light sniffling can be heard, and if the viewer looks closely enough, there's a form hunched over nearby, shoulders moving marginally with every muffled sob.

When at last she speaks, her voice is rather strained and soft - completely unlike the usual cheery tone

[[Fakir's voice is hoarse, and he speaks frantically into the communicator.]]

Moron! Take--take cover! If there's anywhere-- Don't go outside!

Kwa...

[ She finally gets back in view of the screen when the familiar voice comes from it, blue eyes peering tearily into the device.

She waves a wing at the screen. ]

Quack--! Qua--kwaaack! Qua!

[[Seeing a duck on the screen is enough to bring him back to himself, at least for the moment. Why is she--?

She quacked, but that doesn't do anything in this place, does it?

He gets up from the floor he'd been crouching on and dashes across the short hall between their rooms to throw her door open.]]

Ahiru?!

[Action] LOL. A counter. XD

[wings_of_hope]

QUAAA--!

[ The door flying open is enough to startle her further, pulling a shriek-like quack from her bill as she flips over backward and off the other side of the bed in a flurry of yellow feathers. ]
