⓪⑤ ; video ; What Is Yet To Come (and already here)

[docfoul]

[The doppelganger is gone, but the community has one last virus for Scratch:]

[Video A:]

[And that is exactly what you see. No more, no less.]

[Video B:]
[Tick... tock... The clock ticks on in a strangely - disturbingly, even - lifeless apartment. Tick... tock... No other sound can be heard.

Tick... Tock...



Scratch lies limply on the floor. Just a puppet.

Tick...

Tock.

The video cuts out so suddenly that you might very well miss the green glow forming around the doll's body.]

((I-I CAN STOP BOTHERING YOU ALL FOR A WHILE NOW. One important note: Scratch can only see video B. You are obviously free to comment on both, but he won't know what the fuck. And that is pretty funny to me.))

Uhg.

[ 8| You're a puppet, she figures it'll be okay. Right? RIGHT? ]

Someone get me a worldhop and someone who's good at sewing!

[docfoul]

Hmm? Oh. There is no need, Yuri. That was a snapshot of my future.

[tenminutes]

Really?

[ Raises an eyebrow. ] Guess you'd be pretty mad if I hopped over there to help anyway.

[docfoul]

As a matter of fact, yes. I am aware my death is nearing and I am prepared not only to embrace it, but to contribute to it if necessary.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

Don't help him.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

[docfoul]

Yes?

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

You're not dead.

[docfoul]

What you just saw was, in fact, a snippet of my near future.

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

...What did I just watch.

[THIS IS JUST A SIMPLE MATTER OF WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON]

[docfoul]

A ticking clock and my lifeless body. Any questions?

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

Do you live in a comic book?

[He can deal with death. He's not so hot on the apparent author showing up to beat the shit out of one of the characters. DOES HE HAVE TO WATCH OUT FOR NOMURA NOW?]

And what is an ancestor?

[docfoul]

[Huh. Where'd those questions come from?]

No. An ancestor is a genetic predecessor. The definition is more or less universal, you know. Why ask me, of all people?

[timey_wimey]

[ ... well, both of these things are interesting, but since everyone else seems to be covering the death and that can be covered in due time... ]

Any reason why someone seems to be coming to hit you over the head with a broom sometime in your future? You don't have any outstanding debts someone might be hounding you for or anything, do you?

[docfoul]

What?

[timey_wimey]

What, can't you see it? Apart from the video of you being dead, there's also the one just above it of someone breaking into your house.

[docfoul]

[He doesn't reply again until after Kanaya points out the same thing.

GODDAMMIT.]

I can only assume one certain foolish man decided to meddle far too deeply once more.

Always video;

[hugmyscythe]

[Hey doc have a body-swapped virus DM.] Your future, Doc Scratch?

[docfoul]

Correct.

[hugmyscythe]

Your injuriescannot be repaired

by needle and thread?

[docfoul]

I am not interested in finding out. In fact, I am looking forward to my death.

[exceedingwords.livejournal.com]

I thought i saw A Troll With jade blood In The First i didnt See Her symbol But
Were those Our Ancestors

[docfoul]

Is this a misplaced comment, Kanaya?

[exceedingwords.livejournal.com]

um No

[docfoul]

Are you sure? There are no references to ancestors at all in this post.

[-- Hang on. Kefka asked...]

Kanaya. What did you mean when you said "in the first"?
