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

[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.))

[docfoul]

A ticking clock and my lifeless body. Any questions?

[docfoul]

What?

[docfoul]

I know.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

Then don't put words in my mouth.

[docfoul]

I did no such thing.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

Yes you did.

[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]

No, I didn't.

[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?

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

You did, but I'm not going to have an argument like this.

[docfoul]

Yes, you are. [I'm kidding about that, by the way.]

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

I never thought that I would think of a grown man as a brat, but here I am.

[docfoul]

Haa haa, hee hee, hoo hoo? I know you will say no, of course. You have no sense of humor.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

Of course I do. I just don't think you're funny.

[docfoul]

That is only one more addition in the myriad of things you are wrong about.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

Smug.

[docfoul]

Rightfully so. I am extremely powerful, vastly knowledgeable and very handsome.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

You think you're handsome?

[docfoul]

Yes. Of course, I understand that my appeal might be difficult to comprehend, from a human perspective.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

You're even more ridiculous than I thought.

[docfoul]

You would be surprised to hear how many people find me attractive.

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

Nobody likes you.

[docfoul]

How can you explain the existence of pictures such as this, if that is the case?

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

... That is disgusting.

[docfoul]

There is porn. I am not saying that I enjoy it, merely that it is a thing that is true.
