☽ III: video

[inabluemoon]

[The video turns on to show a view of the apartments of Level 2 from what seems to be a fairly high vantage point looking down, as if the device is on a roof. While the user isn't visible on camera those familiar with Vanitas will probably recognize the doctor's voice.]

So many of you are fine with accepting that there's no way out of this place. Are you that easily distracted and complacent about being used by the Prismals? Do you just not have anything to go back to? Or maybe you just don't have something that this damned place is keeping you from doing...

[He laughs bitterly before stopping just as abruptly, voice dipping to almost a whisper.]

... Tch. Why am I wasting my breath?

[The video abruptly ends.]

Comments

[resenting]

They probably don't expect they'd be able to change them either way.

[inabluemoon]

That's the sort of attitude that guarantees that progress is never made. It's irritating.

[resenting]

Yeah, why not lead with that one. I'm sure that'll get people to drop everything they're doing to find a way out just for you.

[inabluemoon]

I'm not saying I want something "just for me", I just don't understand why this isn't a priority. For everyone.

[resenting]

So basically, you're just pissed off that people might have different priorities than you do.

[inabluemoon]

We don't have the time for me to list why I'm pissed off, really.

... Actually it's more accurate to say that I just don't feel like it.

[resenting]

Can't exactly blame you for that one.

I'd probably be closer to where you are if I didn't come here from a place that pissed me off even worse.

[inabluemoon]

Plenty of things back home pissed me off, I just have something unfinished left to do there too.

[And he's going a bit stir-crazy without a sense of purpose.]

[resenting]

Guess I can't say I'm too far off from that.

Of course I never asked to get stuck doing any of those things in the first place, either.
