[ the video flickers on to seth lying on her back in her bed, the little stuffed squirrel abel had given to her sitting on her chest. she's startlingly quiet, no mad energy or beaming smiles, instead just.. sort of watching the toy. people may or may not remember (depending on the timeline) that her real pet squirrel had been afraid of her after she'd revealed herself as a crusnik. it's both a melancholy feeling and touching that abel would give her something like this.

after a few moments, a finger lifts and she taps the squirrel gently on the nose before wrapping both arms around it in a hug, turning over away from the camera.

finally, the video times out. ]
