[ At first, it’s unclear of what’s going on on-screen. There’s some muffled cursing in the background, and the communicator is shuffled around unceremoniously. Then there’s a rather loud “thump”, and finally the screen clears to reveal Netherlands’ unblinking stare. ]
I don’t suppose we have any bandages.
[ When he says this, it may become clear that he’s a bit worse for the wear. Above the normal crescent-shaped scar on his brow is a deep cut that is bleeding steadily down his face. He doesn’t seem entirely bothered by this, but he is wincing a bit. The communicator, in his hand, is shaking rather violently, making it hard to see exactly what’s going on or where he is. ]

[ Whether by design or otherwise, the video pans out at this point, revealing Netherlands entirely. The cut on his forehead isn’t the only one; the entire right side of his body has been slashed pretty generously, though none of the cuts look deep enough to cut to bone.
