[Video]

[Have a few seconds of Deneve staring at you and looking slightly exasperated.]

If you have something to say, just say it.

Comments

[yetsleeping]

I'm sorry.

[Her voice is quiet, and oddly calm. Maybe a little dead.]

I don't know where you are, or where she is. I know you've disappeared, and I can't feel you anymore, so I guess... probably Dismas. I hope you found Clare.

[A long silence.]

About the Abyssal Ones. I think the third is here, too.

I guess... that's all?

[twoswordjuniper]

[That's not a voice she was either expecting or hoping to hear, so have some silence. She has nothing to say to that apology and she'll neither confirm nor deny being underground. The deadness in her voice is eerie and vaguely reminiscent of something she'd hoped never to hear again.

But there. Deneve wasn't going to reply at all but she has to know now. If he's here, that makes things impossibly more complicated and dangerous.]

... Isley is here?

[yetsleeping]

[For a bit, she's quiet, too. And then a little sigh.]

Yes. It's him.

[twoswordjuniper]

[Fantastic. Life is complete. All the greatest evils from the whole of the island (with exception of the Organization itself) are now living in impossibly close quarters.

But she supposes, despite the distinct possibility of being cut in half (again) she'll have to investigate for herself.

Another pause.]

And you?

[yetsleeping]

I'm... still me.

[Even if she does sound a little blank.]

[twoswordjuniper]

How? You went over.

[Pause. The better question is...]

Do you feel any different now?

...sorry for this, Deneve.

[yetsleeping]

...yes.

[...she turns on video, and... her fingers are kind of not normal. Maybe a little like... tentacles! But small ones! But definitely tentacles.]

I... really couldn't do that before.

oh jeez /)_(\

[twoswordjuniper]

[Oh, no. No. Have a long, horrified silence.]

... Interesting.

<.<

[yetsleeping]

Is something wrong?

rough day for claymores

[twoswordjuniper]

[Yes.]

No.

[...]

I've just seen something a little like that before.

Very.

[yetsleeping]

From me.

...are you afraid of me again? I really didn't awaken. I mean. I'm still...

/medicates them all

[twoswordjuniper]

It was you, yes.

[A pause, and the sound of a very small breath escaping her lips.]

You're half-awakened now.

[Not touching the fear question. Deneve's in no mood to discuss her feelings on this matter.]

Pris needs anti-depressants

[yetsleeping]

...I don't really... understand what that means.

/feeds her zoloft?

[twoswordjuniper]

Helen and I. And Clare. We are stronger than we should be because we have all nearly awakened and brought ourselves back. Miria thinks it is because, when we went over our limits, we awakened partially and it unlocked powers that were previously beyond us.

Now you have done the same.
