Explosion 1 [voice/action]

[redheadturkey]

[There would be a rustling sound as the new occupant of Room 609 sat up, a soft moan floating up from the slender form as the flavor of cinnamon bursts across his tongue] Where am I? Last thing I remember was fallin' asleep in Medical. This ain't. .. [and a scream sounded, a startled sound, as the voice cut off] There's a ghost in my room. This isn

[A fumbling sound, as someone picks up their Blackberry hastily.]

Before you do anything else, get that red tape. It's your only protection against the ghost... have you got a weapon you can wrap it around?

[The voice might sound familiar to you, but if so it's a good deal younger than you remember.]

Again, thanks, yo. I'm gonna wrap the knee up good, see if I can get it to hold me. I gotta figure my way around here 'cause if I don't got the lay o'the land I'll be at a disadvantage, which I can already tell ain't gonna be a good thing.

... I don't think anyone really has the advantage, here. This is Jigoku, a sort of town, we're in an apartment block in this place. It's impossible to leave the town, and the ghosts are out for our blood.

Still, it's better than back home.

[Reno gave one of those snorts that told of his mood entirely.]Yeah, back home it was corporate executives that wanted your blood and soldiers that wanted to kill you and everyone else. Still an advantage over home s'for sure.

[redheadturkey]

[Reno let out an audible curse over the Blackberry, realizing that in his own stupid joke, he'd given away more than he'd intended.] Just big batshit and silver haired, is all. Nothin' much changed really.

[if someone's brain freaking out and collapsing in on itself, and the whole world crumbling, had a sound? this would be it.

[redheadturkey]

[Reno would not panic, oh no, he wasn't that sort.] Cloud, Cloud, ya all right man?

[stormhelm]

[And then the sound of pain, like the new physically hurt him, which it kinda did. A kind of bang, and horse breathing.]

[stormhelm]

No... no he can't be...

[audio] SORRY DONE

[stormhelm]

I killed that bastard!!

Re: [audio] SORRY DONE

[redheadturkey]

Listen man, I don't know how it happened, but he ain't dead.

[stormhelm]

[He connects the video on the Blackberry just as he collapses back onto the couch, the picture trembles slightly with the hand that holds it, but you can see him; pale-faced, hunched over in the chair as though in physical pain, and there looks to be a dark splotch of what could be blood on his shirt, other hand clutching at it. He stares into the camera, eyes almost wild.]

How? How?!

Re: [video]

[redheadturkey]

Going theory right now is it has somethin' to do with th'Lifestream and the Jenova cells in his body reactin'. I don't know, I don't understand halfa th'scientific gobbledygook Hojo spouts.

All I know is right now, he ain't dead, and ta tell the truth, I'd rather be here where he ain't than home.

[He just stares at you for a moment, past you, and it looks like that bloodspot is getting bigger. Then he jerks his head away, teeth gritted, slamming the phone down and disconnecting the feed.]
