ichoosefight | 100,38 - Two roads diverged and they both looked pretty nice actually

[ Video ]

[ Steph sits at her desk, as usual when she makes video posts. She's been affected by the flood, but she doesn't look particularly different. She's always been very good at hiding her scars, and although her clothes cover most of them she has makeup over one slash across her cheek. Dodged a bullet - literally. ]

You know what I don't understand? I mean, it's probably a human nature thing - sorry, sentient being nature. Whenever there's a flood we all climb on top of each other trying to figure out what it is. But either someone's affected and they know it and they can tell us flat out, or they don't know it and there's no way to figure out what's different until after. So, if there's no obvious danger, why bother? Now don't get me wrong, I'm the curious cat incarnate, it just seems kinda silly in the grand scheme of things, doesn't it?

[ She shrugs. Food for thought. Then she turns the video to private. ]

[ Private to Doyle ]

How goes it, inmate mine? Still in your own skin? [ Doyle's always been a bit dour, but Steph counters it with high spirits, good humor and a stern tone, even when he does something wrong. It seems to work better for her than sinking to his level of spookiness. ]

[ Private to Jon ]

Hey lover, I haven't seen you all day. What have you been up to?

Threaded | Flat

[Barbara sounds - different. Distant, and rather derisive.]

Taking a moment to calm down and observe the facts would solve so many problems before they start.

Decided to take a break from the network today. I've heard enough blathering to do me a lifetime.

It never hurts to ask questions when in doubt.

[He is peering at her curiously - she looks quite a lot older than the Steph he knows, who has just started as Spoiler.]

[ Not quite the Doyle people normally see this one has been decked in black since the week he lost the people he cared the most about, that was when he forgot how to smile and became more like the friend who sacrificed himself for a noble cause and caused the world to come to its knees. The world went to hell after Angel died, and Doyle was stuck in those moments. Much like he changed for the worst when his demon form woke, he proved he could be much worse by shutting down and simply killing the demons that got in his way opposed to trying to help the helpless and figure out what was really going on. He lost his chance to be a hero when the victims started to just seem an obstcale in the way to killing the demons and lawyers of Wolfram and Hart so he started just taking them out if it meant getting the job done faster.

Looking at the girl in the video he looked somber and bored an was decked in black.] Where else would I be? This boat ain't made me anything else this week.

[ No how are you, no fun joking just a bit of sarcasm. Spooky they can do together.]
