[It's a video post, mostly because he won't be assed to try to write anything down right now. The man in the video looks like hell. Those who know him know he's always kind of grouchy and terse, but now it's much, much worse.]


So what the hell happens to people when they leave this hellhole, again? Does anyone even know?


I swear, if she isn't safe, there won't be a single...


[He stops himself before he gets himself more worked up. That's not a goddamn thing he can do right now, and he knows it.]

See you soon!

[She waves, and hangs up. ...Oh, she didn't ask what kind of toppings he wanted...hrm. Well, that's okay. She'll order half pepperoni, and half everything else. Then if he wants the works, all he has to do is eat two pieces stacked on top of each other, and if he prefers something simple, he can eat the pepperoni alone. Ha, she's a genius!]
