"Recently, you've all been told that there is a traitor.
"So you should probably know what it was I did."
[She pauses, searching for the words while she lets that sink in for a heavy moment. One might note that her tones are different; she doesn't sound like her usual robotic self when she speaks. Quite the opposite, actually. Rey sounds almost like-human. In her own way, you could say that this her one big "fuck you" to Smiley. You think she wouldn't tell everyone? Well, now she is. Full disclosure. So there.]
"I entered the dark corridors shortly after the DUPRR crew had docked the ship. Before long it became apparent that the things infesting the hallways weren't approaching me with any hostility. Because they weren't attacking, I was able to reach the secondary shuttle bay more or less without much incident. During that trek I made an effort to avoid others, not knowing the extent of the compulsion and whether it would also drive me to harm anyone who stood in the way." [Well, it's mostly the truth she speaks. You're welcome, William.]
"All that remained was the DUPRR pilot, Neson. Needing his trust, I tricked him into coming with me by pretending to be a person who was trustworthy. It's something I've become rather good at, actually -- pretending to be someone else, much like how I am right now. Despite the fact that something wanted me to kill this man, I decided to will against it.
"It didn't work as intended.
"Instead, I took him to the White Room. I opened the door. And I led him through.
"He's likely still in there right now, where it's kept him."
[She stops, still dizzied from the jump. The more she speaks, the more hoarse her voice gets. She hasn't been using it that much lately, and it's clear from her shadowed eyes and worn features that she's been neglecting more than just sharing this information.]
"Apparently, doing this has-- 'stopped the clock', whatever that means.
"For what it's worth, I'm sorry."

[Whatever happens after what she did could possibly be a result of her own doing for all they know, and right now she's just waiting for the other shoe to drop. But hey, Rey keeps thinking along the lines of "fixing" her bullshit mistakes, not making them "less bad". Maybe you're on to something, Nowi.]

[It's tough to prepare when you don't know what's coming. But maybe they can guess...]
What do you think will happen? What's all that stuff about a clock stopping?
video
Just a guess.

[Chrom did not recruit Nowi into his army for her brains...]
no subject
Highly doubt that "Smiley" is even capable of being that literal.
no subject
.....His name is 'Smiley?'
no subject
We don't actually know his name. He's not himself.
no subject
[Nowi can always be counted on to unhelpfully ask the obvious question.]
no subject
Don't know. Not sure if even he knows.
no subject
[Nowi has spoken. That's the new rule.]
no subject
[Riiiight.]
Will be sure to pass on the memo next time he shows his face.
...Or text.
Or makes another ominous audio broadcast.
[Whatever.]
no subject
[If she'd known that she would've yelled at him more...]
no subject
But yes, he's more or less a one trick pony whenever he has something to say.
no subject
no subject
Don't foresee that ever happening, though.
no subject
[No she's not. He'll say something that makes her mad or curious and she'll be right back to yelling at him.]
no subject
[Hey, if Nowi can annoy Smiley, then that's a win on her.]
no subject
[How not talking to someone turns out. Yeah, that makes sense.]
Oh, you know what? I never got your name.
no subject
[She blinks, totally forgetting that introductions and names are actually a thing for some people.]
Apologies. It's Rey.
no subject
no subject
[Pause.] Never know whether to say welcome newer people or apologize to them.
[Not that it's her fault that people end up here. Rey is as much a prisoner as anyone else.]
no subject
[Nowi agrees that this is in no way her fault. She also doesn't know what a network ID is, but will pretend she does.]
no subject
Just in general. Not actually taking personal responsibility for this one. [Not after she's already taken responsibility for taking a guy to the White Room. That one fuck-up she did do, at least.]
