[Suddenly, a pair of bright blue eyes that look really tired.]
...How's this thing work? Does that light mean it's working?
[The eyes pull back a bit to show a rather youthful face, slightly lean from malnutrition and maybe a bit dead around the eyes.]
Y'know, I'd thought I finally had some good news, seein' the battle at Gettysburg over and all. And now I find the whole frickin' world's gone?
I just don't buy it, guys. My people were too awesome to let something like that happen! We were all fightin' hard already to stay together, there's no way it'd fall apart like that.
[The youth finishes cleaning his glasses on his shirt, apparently, and now has them back on his face.]
Any countries wanna come up and tell me what's really goin' on?
