[001] Accidental Video

[givenomercy]

[The video is on but there's darkness, breathing can be heard and the slight sound of walking. It's like this for a moment as someone seems to be getting their barrings. Finally the video changes, bright light then pink as fingers close around the dreamberry, obscuring the view.]

I want your positions and I want them now!

[Who he's talking to is

[Having his Dreamberry come to life with someone screaming at the top of their lungs was not something he particularly appreciated. He was about to shut it off except the voice sounded familiar.

Then it dawned on him and he muttered something too low to be heard.] Oh, you have gotta be shittin' me! Just what I didn't need...

[He figured it made sense- his luck sucked and it had become somewhat quiet and cozy here. Why not shit all over it? Godammit.

Practically growling he grabbed the phone and finally answered the angry Russian.]

Hey, hey! It's not a radio, asshole!

[video]

[givenomercy]

[And at that voice he'll pull the radio away from him, looking down at it. And this is how he finally notices that said radio is not actually that. Moving to hold it so he can glare at the face of the man he'd never thought he'd see again, Lazarevic will frown sharply.]

Always so informative, Drake. A shame you never worked for me.

[video]

[assworthsaving]

Yeah. Real shame I never worked for a murdering son of a bitch. Lucky for me you only hired idiots.

[You're frowning? You? No. Look at this face-- he is so very unhappy to see your ugly bald head on his phone right now, jerk.]

If you're expecting a warm welcome you're not gonna get one.

[video]

[givenomercy]

We've already had this talk, boy, clearly you remember none of it.

[Him being a monster, Drake killing tons of men to get to him, blah blah, that talk. Oh yes.]

With my reputation I've not had such a welcome in decades. Not that I care.

[homerunmagica]

I'm not sure as to survivors from what sort of incident you're looking for, but I can assure you there are quite some people alive here.

[ audio ]

[givenomercy]

[Little girls voice? What even... he'll look at his "radio" for a moment before answering.]

And where is 'here'?

[Because clearly he wasn't in Shambhala anymore.]

[ audio ]

[homerunmagica]

Somarium.

[ For a little girl, she's pretty good at maintaining a poker face.. ]

We were brought here against our will. There's quite a lot of us, from what I've been able to gather so far.

[ audio ]

[givenomercy]

[He'd never heard of it, and now he was being told he and presumably many others had been brought to this Somarium against their will? He'd have to believe anything at the moment, considering he'd been dead before coming here.]

So far? So you are 'new' to this Somarium as well? Do you know what this place consists of? Who exactly brought us here and why?

[video for the briefest of moments before it switches to text!]

[lastyears_model]

[ For a fragment of a moment there's a flash of her looking pale and shocked to see him here. Him of all people- not that long ago her more recent memory of life before being here had to do with having your gun pointed at her face, Lazarevic.

Not cool, bro. But as quickly as the flash is there, it soon fades and it replaced by a string of text. ]

There are no survivors of yours here.

[Video!]

[givenomercy]

[So she was still utterly terrified of him, fantastic.]

And here my little shadow still follows me, fitting since your boy is here as well. [He'll snort.] No matter, if they are dead then I had no need of them.

[text]

[lastyears_model]

[ Terrified her ass. She just really hates Russians because of you, now. ]

Ha, ha, haaaa- Yes, it's just amazing that we're both here for you to have to deal with. Oh? That's funny. I didn't think you could manage to do anything without little lackeys backing your every step of the way, considering they were always there, dancing like the little puppets you made them out to be.

[Video]

[givenomercy]

[He's amused that she insists on using text instead of speaking directly to him.]

They were means to an end. Much like your little friend had been. You could not go alone after me, so what did you do? Brought someone with you.

I merely brought more.

[Voice]

[m19_lover]

[Jigen's first reaction is to actually be worried. After all, that guy sounded really serious about that 'survivor' thing. But then he looked out of his window and... Well, it didn't really look like Somarium was falling over itself with the blue skies and the nice wind blowing and all...]

Oi, I think you are worried for nothing.

[Voice]

[givenomercy]

Who said I was worried?

[Lazarevic corrects him with a question.]

My men were paid by me to do as I say and be where I say. I merely wish to know if any are still alive to have to keep on the payroll.

[Voice]

[m19_lover]

[Well, with all that shouting...]

How... honorable of you.

[turneverystone]

Survivors is an interesting way to put it.
