[V is seated at a wooden table, a red curtain behind him and Kant on one shoulder. The robobird shuffles from foot to foot but is silence as the masked man speaks. He sounds calm; his tone is almost conversational.]I am apparently among those targeted in the recent rash of burglaries. Two silver daggers of substantial sentimental value are missing ( Read more... )

[The next time V makes toast, he may smell something burning. Quick, pop up the toast! Is that a note that just popped out too? Is it on fire? MAYBE! Regardless, there's a mystery inside. Dare to read it?]

[Of course you dare, you're V. 'Daring' is your middle name! Maybe.]

A place that clouds the eyes but not the minds ( Read more... )

[Most of the feed is obscured by an object; it seems to be a desk or table, since a corner shows a bit of floor and a foot, in what could be a wool sock. That sock is inconsequential, and the same could be said of the black boot beside it; what’s important here is the anklet over that sock.

The identity of said person is pretty easy to determine, judging by the long chestnut-brown hair that hangs loosely down her back ( Read more... )

[Someone is strolling down a street in the East, casual despite a sizeable… something… resting on one shoulder. Several seconds into the video, that someone passes beneath a light and is revealed to be V.]

[The man almost sounds as if he's simply sharing an observation.]

It has been a long time since I have been lonely.

[OOC: Shortly before this.]

KITT, if you could come home...?

[V hasn’t been home for very long…but he is aware that he has been absent for well over a week, and aware he ought to announce the end of that absence without waiting. Those who have visited the Shadow Gallery will recognize the room he’s speaking from---he’s just within its entrance.]
