[Jesse looks nervous. He keeps glancing off-screen, like he's looking for permission or approval from someone who's keeping an eye on him. It's the camera he addresses, though:]

H-Hey. So, um...

If you don't know who I am, you can ignore this whole thing, 'cause it ain't really relevant to you.

Ranka? Sorry I disappeared all of a sudden after Christmas. I hope you weren't worrying or anything. I dunno if... I mean, I probably won't be home for a while. So just... don't worry. About that.

Everybody else - I mean, like, anybody who knows me and could do me a favor, like... Could you come and talk to Mia Fey? 'cause I need - what's it? - character witnesses. Like, people who've known me for a while who would maybe...

[The next words are mumbled as he looks down at his hands:]

...come and testify at a trial.

That's all.


(( There's a plotting post if you want to know what this is all about. ))

Um, what?

[hostage]

Yeah, I'm kinda in - I mean, people think I did some stuff I didn't do, so...

[fourscience]

Jesse! What happened? I can help you, of course, if you need me to!

[hostage]

Oh my god, would you? Please? Come and talk to my lawyer and she'll tell you everything you gotta do.

My sis...?

[hostage]

Your..?

You mean, Ms. Fey?

[feyted]

( Maya you are a ninja and your sister is not entirely sure what to do with you aside from wonder if you'll ever see the note she sent! )

Hey, Maya! Things came up really quickly. Have you checked your inbox for messages...?

( Why couldn't actual mail with instant delivery be a thing. How familiar is Maya with tablets or how they're used? Stuff like this certainly wasn't all over the village growing up! Not exactly the traditional way to live. )

[Cue freaked out look.]

Jesse? What-? What happened?

[Private | Video]

[hostage]

They think I killed somebody, so...

[So basically he's screwed.]

If it's not relevant, don't make it public because now I'm nosy.

[What else is new?]

[hostage]

Yeah, well, trial's tomorrow so you can find out then if you really wanna.

Did you laugh at someone named Skye?

[Have a nosy set of nostrils. Nope, there-readjusted. The nostrils belong to a nosy kid. Hey, there's no TV. Your woes are other people's entertainment, dude.]

[hostage]

What?

[He's just confused.]

[ she only met him once but seriously she didn't get any vibes off of him that would indicate a need for a murder trial. ]

How much evidence do they have?

[hostage]

Not allowed to talk about it.

[whatsupcroc]

Um, what's going on, Jesse? You're really on trial for murder?

( Worried enough to not be using Master Pinkman when she sees this. )

[hostage]

Yeah. It's, um... It's pretty crazy.

[urnotafraid]

They're actually going through with this?

[hostage]

Yeah, thank god.

[voice]

[livinuptothename]

Character witnesses for what?

[hostage]

A trial. My trial.

[lovesgod]

Sounds like you're in trouble.

[hostage]

Pretty much screwed, yeah.

[ex_symbioses706]

Jesse! Of course I was worried when you didn't come back! And then to say not to worry - what happened?

[hostage]

[Great, now he has to give the "daddy's going to prison" speech. With all the shit he's been through, how come this is finally happening now?]

Um... I might be going away for a while.
