[ for optimal viewing pleasure, please see the following and allow to run in the background as you enjoy this recording. though the only thing currently in the feed is an angled shot of the treetops in the gardens, this is not an accidental video. there's rustling in the background, like something's moving fast through the leaves coming closer, and it is moving.

a couple seconds later, myfanwy comes flying overhead, a small black shape on her back. it might not be terribly difficult to discern what it is, but don't worry if you miss it, because the pteranodon makes a screech and a sharp turn, sending the shape tumbling off her back towards the device.

river rolls over the feed when she hits the ground, dressed in her tq crew uniform with the legs cut into shorts, hair tied up in a messy bun and hands covered with fingerless black gloves that hardly fit her at all. sky-diving experts or anyone with military training might notice her roll is perfectly controlled to minimise damage, and when she comes back into view, her eyes are wide with adrenaline but she doesn't seem particularly bothered by her fall. ]


Test five. Flight successful. Notes: need to meet higher altitude, consider construction of a harness; ask permission first. No hard turns.

[ she looks away for a second and blinks. ]

[ oops? that's all she says before cutting off the feed. a second later, she attaches a text message. ]

Fuckin' hell.

[Even as he's saying that--mostly to himself--he realises that maybe he shouldn't take this girl's word for it. She's a bit... weird. Maybe. So there's that.]

How d'you know?
humanistic: (listen - we all know rats like cheese)

[Oh.... cool. Because that's not creepy at all. And maybe someone else would question this a bit more, but--Mitchell is pretty used to weird prophetic-sounding statements and things, enough that he huffs something of a laugh.]

Right. Yeah. Thanks. I was startin' to get that impression, but-- thanks for clearing that up. All of us?
humanistic: (glare - it's not Saved by the Bell)

[you can live over a hundred years and commit grisly murders and live however the fuck you want but there will always be things that come off as vaguely scary no matter how scary you yourself are and this

is one of them.]


Thank you, creepy girl.

[so done.]
