[It's two in the morning (or some hour that feels like two in the morning, people sleeping and quiet), and there's a slightly-larger-than-a-cat dinosaur chewing on Meriken's guide. This of course turns the video on. Have a view of the inside of Fluffy's mouth, punctuated by glimpses of Meriken's brightly-lit room (cleaned this time, scrubbed spotless, not a speck of dust or dirt anywhere, not an object out of place).
There's a voice in the background of the noise, thin and hollow, little-child-singing-in-a-horror-movie, blank and empty and tripping and cracking over words.]
Oh s-say can you.... see by... the dawn's early light
What so p-proudly we... hailed at the twilight's.... la.... last gleaming
Who's broad....... stripes and bright s-stars
.....
through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched.... were so... gall..ant..ly streaming
And the r-rocket's red glare, the bombs... bursting in air....
....gave proof through the night that our flag was still there
Oh........... say does that Star-Spangled..........
...
...
and the home of the brave
[Fluffy continues chewing happily on the guide.]
