7th theory of everything ♫ video (regular!discedo)

[todayitwasyou]

It's been.. quiet for a long time here now, hasn't it?

[ The camera seems at a slightly odd angle on the floor, so all you can see is Kotomi's back and part of her side while she's talking with an open book on her lap; apparently it turned itself on this time. Yes, she's barefoot as usually. There's a slight pause where she seems to be waiting for

[ Hey, Kotomi, you're becoming one of the only people Jack gives a crap about. ] Uh, hey, c'mon. They can't just sleep forever. That'd be a pretty boring life, hahaha.

[ Normally he wouldn't care much, and at first he even thought an emptier Discedo was a bit more fun...but he hasn't heard from Sollux, and less people means less people who could help him get home. ]

[ Aw, Jack. She's glad to have at least some people around she.. somewhat knows. ]

H-hmm, that's right.. They're not dead, so.. they should wake up soon, right?

video.

[ethericbit]

Oh yeah. I mean, if I've been able to stay awake for this long, that means that they can't...not wake up, right? [ He did not think how he would say this statement through okay. ]

[todayitwasyou]

Nobody can sleep forever.. You're right.

[ She tries to put up a tiny smile on her face, but it looks more pathetic than anything else. ]

So they'll.. come back for sure really soon..

[ethericbit]

Uh, yeah. Can't keep us hanging forever. [ He scratches his neck awkwardly. ]

[todayitwasyou]

Don't you mind the fact that it's suddenly so quiet here?

video.

[ethericbit]

Not really. I don't really pay attention to the network much anyway, haha. Some guys who were gonna help me out with...stuff [ hacking into Discedo's system finding a network getting home cough cough ] are still out, though. At least I think so.

video.

[todayitwasyou]

Hmm, I.. didn't look at the network a lot either, [ or talk with people in general, for that matter ] but it still feels weird it's so quiet everywhere.

Oh? So you found people to help you? I'm glad..

[ethericbit]

[ Oh man Sollux told him not to spoil the plan. GOTTA BE VAGUE HERE though he's not beyond spilling it ] Uh, yeah, it was going pretty good.

Uh, so- [ subject change go. Luckily it's something he's interested in ] is anybody from your world here?

video.

[todayitwasyou]

[ Well, Kotomi is a fairly oblivious girl, so she barely even notices the sudden subject change and just goes along with it. ]

Yes. Nagisa-chan is here as well.. She's a friend from school. Tomoya-kun and Sunohara-kun used to be here as well, but.. they went home a little while ago.

[ethericbit]

Oh. At least they got to go home, haha. I'd kill to be back there.

video.

[todayitwasyou]

I'd like to be able to sleep in my own bed again for once.. But at the same time I think I'd be sort of sad to lose all the people I know here.

video.

[ethericbit]

Hm. You've actually met that many people...?

video.

[todayitwasyou]

This is still a pretty big city.. I've been here for a few months now, so you run into people from time to time. I.. really like making friends.

video.

[ethericbit]

Doesn't have that many people in it for a city, haha. But that's cool, I guess.

video.

[todayitwasyou]

I think it still has quite some people in it for an abandoned old-looking city, though. Normally you wouldn't find anyone here..
