003 ✦ Video (backdated to shortly after the jump)
[It's almost impossible to see her, as the room she's in is dark. Very dark. But as one's eyes adjust to the incredibly dim lighting, they might be able to make out the young girl's face and hair. Expression completely blank, with twin telltale streaks glistening with the occasional shift in movement. She appears to be sitting on a bed of some kind, sitting with her back against the wall. But not her room. No, there was no way she was going back there.]
I spent the last two months wondering what exactly the worst part about this place was. And I think I've finally figured it out.
[Her voice is slightly hoarse, and eerily calm for the subject at hand.]
It's not the part where our lives are constantly in danger. It's not the fear, or the uncertainty. Or even the fact that we've had to watch people die right in front of us. I'd been through all that even before I came here.
No, the worst part of it is the cruelty of bringing aboard people you think are your friends, until you realize they're nothing more than strangers with familiar faces on them. That, just when you've managed to find that one little bit of hope that you think could help get you through anything...it's all revealed to be one big lie you fell for.
Well, I'm not falling for it anymore. So, congratulations, whoever's in charge. You win.
I'm done with all of this.
[In a single, swift motion, she ends her speech by hurling the stupid communicator across the room. It shuts off upon impact.]
((OOC: Takes place shortly after Zatanna and Artemis have a particularly heartwrenching exchange of words post-jump. Replies will be slightly delayed, as Zatanna would have to muster the will to walk across the room to collect her miraculously not-broken communicator first. ACTION open to any who would know how and/or want to find her.))
