exsilium | four ♙ video

[ the video's not all that well focused or held, mostly getting her shoulder and part of her face except for the moments she readjusts it back to focusing on her face temporarily. the light is dim, wherever she is, and between the blood drying on her and the way her voice keeps hitching as she stumbles over words, the unsteadiness of her hands holding the tablet, and the way her head tips back against the wall she's leaning against every so often as if she can't quite hold it up - she's not in great shape. ]

You know, someone should get to work on this machine's timing. Adjust it a little bit. Make it stop being a fucking piece of shit. Or taking people who don't want to be taken. Or - I don't know, what else is it up to lately? How long's it been.

[ breaking off. she's forgotten what she needed to say, is looking off at nothing in particular for a long moment. abruptly - ]

What's that story about the lady and the tiger? With the princess whose lover has to pick one of two doors as punishment, and one has a tiger and the other has a woman he'll have to marry. And she makes a gesture to tell him which one to pick, but the story doesn't tell you which one the door had behind it.

I guess a little closure's too much to ask for.

[ blood loss: good for clarity. ]

I could use a doctor.

[ ooc: charlie cutter & tempest get providing aid rights, but if you would rather action it up she'll be wandering around the area for part of the day and can be run into most anywhere just checking everything out. ]

[she's not sure what to say, or if she even should say anything, but it's... max looking like she's in a bad way. a look over the other responses confirm that she's been healed, that she's nearly dead back home anyway, and it still leaves steph unure what to do.

but she can't say nothing]

i don't think they're ever gonna stop the transporter from being a piece of shit

[innocuous enough. really, she just doesn't want to touch on any of the other topics.]

[ the more she gets back to her normal self the more part of her really regrets that having been a public post, but she hadn't really been in a state to do much of anything technical back then, so.

what's done is done. ]

isn't that half the point of us being here though
