murder --1 | video

[the image clicks on to a blonde kid who somehow manages to look like he just stepped out of the 90s despite the regulation jump suit. he's got his feet kicked up on something and he's looking at the communicator like he's watching TV]

So I get that this is probably part of the suspense and everything, but come on. The Birds had a better set up than this, and it wasn't even scary.

Is anyone gonna share what's behind door number one? Or is this, like, you guys are all dead so we need to find an abandoned assault rifle and come down there ourselves?

[ The response is an androgynous looking boy, who compulsively tugs down a tan hat and sets his face in a flat expression. ]

Then maybe you should have tried the door.

we're dead.
bring the rifles ):

I didn't see a door.

[probably because he's been popcorn.giffing instead of looking.]

shit
now we know for sure that this place is haunted
i'm getting texts from the grave

[ tate u little pussy ]

I saw a door.

[ He says, patiently, without elaborating. ]

haunted phone. exactly how i'm going to spend my afterlife.

did you not notice the broadcasts like a million years before yours?

[this is better than tivo]

And? What happened?

And I went in a room.

[ like if tivo was really frustrating and never gave you the answers you wanted without prompting ]

[ and anyway how do you know what tivo is ]

After some time, I walked out of the room.

yeah but i bet you that isn't everyone.
and they weren't exactly what i'd call informative

[screaming silently.]

What was in the room? You're all acting like you've seen a ghost or something.

well maybe next time you should come take a peek for yourself~~~

You can't always see ghosts. Sometimes ghosts are invisible. Or at least in stories.

And they weren't ghosts. Ghosts don't have bones.

Would you like a detailed analysis?

[he sounds like a kid hearing the juiciest gossip, rn, jsyk. or an excitable teenage boy who likes zombie flicks.]

Yeah, man, give me all the gory details!

orrrr you could just tell me

Hmn.

[ He considers this for a moment, but there's no reason not to give the boy the information he wants, even if he doesn't know him. Besides, he has this excited sort of edge to his voice, and there's a small part of Yoite that's desperate to fulfill that. ]

Small. High vaulted ceilings. I think. Metallic. Approximately three meters square. "Don't believe everything they tell you smiley face." [ There's no pause between all of this, and it's listed analytically, his eyes off to the side as he recalls it detail for detail. ] "Why don't you sit down and rest for a while sorry about the mess best I could do on short notice you're welcome smiley face."

Oh, I guess the mess was the two skeletons.

[ He says, as though this very important information has just occurred to him, with the air of someone who doesn't seem very shaken by skeletons anymore. ]

and let you little red hen your way through this?

what do i get for telling? :)

[tate, on the other hand, seems keenly interested, his dark eyes alight.]

Oh man, skeletons? Were they real?

[ Yoite's eyes squint in suspicion, but only for a moment. He's interested in this, as any person would be, but he finds it difficult to gauge what would be a proper human reaction to finding two skeletons in a mystery room. It's probably not this. ]

Yes. Bone structure was human, though with several apparent lacerations, fractures, breaks, and cuts.

But no blood.

[ Which is weird. ]

i'll come down with an assault rifle if something like this happens again?

[Tate sits back, as though digesting all of this information, though his gaze reminds unwavering.

finally, at length:]

Dude. That's fucked up.

do you have one?

There was no interc--

[ Which pops out before he can stop it, before he remembers the turn of phrase, the alternative meaning to 'fuck' and, oh, that's wrong. Another hat adjust. ]

So is being transported onto a spaceship in another dimension entirely, I guess. I can't find the room again.

i can find one.

i so do not believe you.
and anyway even if something like this happens again, i might actually be dead by the time you find said rifle so i'm still not seeing much of, you know, a benefit for me in all this.

Maybe we've been abducted by space vampires and after they drink our blood they feed us to their rabid space wolves.

[wow tate thanks you are enormously useless]
