Augh. Enough, already!
[With that disgruntled outburst, the communicator clicks on. There's a rather unamused scowl on Zack's face for the first few seconds of the video feed, but after a short shake of his head, he resumes what he'd been doing before the brief shock interrupted him. In spite of his earlier exasperated tone, he looks...fairly ( Read more... ) -
08. [Text.]
[Zack's frequency is fully operational on the network, and has been since sometime late last evening. Although the young man has been unusually quiet since his return. For someone as incessantly talkative as he's sometimes known to be, that in itself is something of a rare thing. Part of it is entirely out of preoccupation--the past few hours have ( Read more... ) -
07. [voice]
[When the communicator clicks on, there's only a rythmic shuffle of footsteps and the steadier creak of the stairs. It's clear that it's pretty slow going, however--it's not the normal clatter of footsteps that sounds more like he's tripping over himself than physically climbing the stairs at a run. And then, of course, there's the quiet ( Read more... ) -
06. [Video & voice.]
[For a moment after the feed clicks on, it's difficult to hear anything but the hushed normality of the background noises. Footsteps in the hall, the muted rustle of sheets. Then nothing. Just silence. And finally....]
...What's it like to be forgotten? [The tone of the question is genuinely curious, but there's an undertone of something vague and ( Read more... ) -

[ The fluorescent lighting from the ceiling catches the lens of the camera, causing a brief flare before the image resettles.]
Zack was slightly elevated on the hospital bed, surrounded by crisp, fresh linens. He looked marginally improved from the last time he was seen, but only marginally. He's pale--only a shade or two darker than the sheets he ( Read more... ) -
04. [Accidental video.]
[When the feed cuts on, it's clear that it's purely accidental. The communicator is resting just left of his boot, the tread of which has unintentionally activated it to the 'on' position. The view isn't the most coherent or helpful--a confusing jumble of images. At first, there's just the dark, raised ridges of the bottom of his shoe, ending ( Read more... ) -

Can we all just...hold off on losing our minds?
[He's clearly frustrated, that much is certain. There's a sick desperation in that nervous laugh of his, that holds the tone of 'Guys? ...Guys?' without going so far as to say it.]
This isn't how things work. There's a system to follow, and rules, and, and, and---! And that doesn't include breaking ( Read more... ) -
02. [Voice.]
[Zack is getting restless. Having idle hands only encourages him to become frustrated and moody, not to mention that all that restless energy of his tends to mean that...unfortunate things happen. And although he's appreciated the hospitality and collective close eyes on him the past several days, he's hopelessly unable to take things slowly. Put ( Read more... ) -
01. [Video.]
[For a moment, the screen is filled with a perplexing, looming view of solid black. There's the typical crackling and pops of the microphone picking up subtle background noises and posture shifts, but it's still several seconds of virtually nothing on the screen at all. Then, there's a blur of black dangling down that looks suspiciously like...hair ( Read more... )
