[bestkindofcrazy]

[The video feed is shot through with static and frequently fizzles out for a couple of seconds, but what you can see of the picture is a tall, tired-looking man in his mid thirties. His face is peppered with relatively fresh wounds, and there are dark circles under his eyes. He's also scowling like somebody just shot his puppy]

Oh I am so not in the

Uh. Does your definition of alri-kkkkfffzzzkkk-ver getting spirited away to some weird paralle-ffzzzzkkk-ersion of New York and given some electronic thingummy that can't deal with being near a wiz-kkkkffffkssss-ars above this thing is a pain in the ass.

Not hurt, no, I'm fine, kiddo.

[The feed fuzzes right out for a couple of seconds, coming back on mid-sentence]

[bestkindofcrazy]

Breaking it, I think. [Buzz of static] It's kind of my thing.

[thisstraydog]

Why?

Very staticky voice

[bestkindofcrazy]

Because I have a vendetta against machinery. Or it has a vendetta against me.

video; because I don't have 3495709 tags already, amirite?

Hey, man, you don't look so good, and I don't mean in the "camera snow adds ten pounds" kinda way. Need a hand?

[ Canon-punching is fine, but Spidey's a private guy (LOL stating the obvious) so he may get a little defensive. Your call! \o/ ]

Re: video

[bestkindofcrazy]

Kkkkksh-ot two, thanks, but if you could tell me how the hell I got he-

[Looks closer at the screen, then gives a disbelieving laugh]

...scratch that, can you tell me why the hell you're dressed as Spidey?

[ There's something faintly disconsolate about his ... complete lack of facial expression. ]

Oh, goody, you're one of those.

[ Perking up. ]

But hey, this means I get to give you the spiel, right? Ooh, I've never gotten to be first with the spiel before!

[ Rubbing his hands together. ]

Okay, you know Occam's Razor? The simplest explanation that accounts for all the available evidence is the one most likely to be true, etcetera?

[bestkindofcrazy]

See, either this video's more scrambled than I kkkksskkkought or the last couple of days have screwed with my head worse than I thought, because I thought yoyou just implied you were Spiderman.

[Sure, why not?]

Does this mean I don't get to use "your friendly neighbourhookssshhhhizard" any more? Have you got dibs on that?

[notniteowl]

Well, it's already lasted five minutes. [Someone's amused.]

I could take a look at it, if you really want.

[bestkindofcrazy]

That sounds like a kssshhhkkkood idea, if I can figure out how to fissss you. It's gotta be pretty sturdily built to have lakssssssshhhhhssskkkis long.

[video, private]

[notniteowl]

Uhhh. Tell me where you are? I could plug your coordinates in and find you that way, it's probably easier. Unless you don't want me to show up in a big giant blue airship.

Re: [video, private]

[bestkindofcrazy]

Uh. I'm...ksssssh...somewhere. I just got out of this weird glowy place and now I'm just, uh, stanksssshkkkkg on the sidewalk. I don't know, I'm not sssskkkkew Yorker.
