video ♔ from apollo ♔ without "i", she's just....hbk

[priforprince]

From: Apollo
Date: October 2nd, evening

[ The feed opens to a pair of green eyes blinking at it, pulling back. At first, the person just seems satisfied that they got the camera pointing the direction they wanted it, but then - ]

This is.....me?

[ It's like the sun dawns. She settles in to just stare. At herself. On her webcam. Content. At peace. ]

Beautiful...........

[ Something in the background sniggers like a kettle boiling. Kicking someone while they're down - say, switching an amnesiac's phone to broadcast when it'd meant to privately record - is apparently perfectea accepteable teahavior. ]

[[ ooc: backdated to the evening of the addpocalypse. hibiki has forgotten everything related to herself, but remembers most other things. she'll be all better the next day, so take advantage while you can. ]]

I'm fine!

[ She is not fine. But she also doesn't want help.

Even if she needs it. ]

[replicatedform]

[Geez, fine. He suspect she's not fine, but he's not going to force her.]

Alright, I'll just go.

[A beat.]

Try checking the top or the side.

[He's wildly guessing, because who knows what she's recording with? Aaaaand click, he's gone.

... He'd probably watch this post a little more, maybe.]

[priforprince]

Wha--

[ The top or the -

Oh. Oh, look, a button. Hibiki goes to press it, but then notices herself in her webcam again.

This might take a while. ]

[replicatedform]

[Might be. Yamanbagiri actually went to get something to drink. By the time he got himself some water, he checks the post out of curiosity.

It's still on??

...

He'll watch a bit more. Maybe she'll finally figure it out soon?]

[priforprince]

[ The picture is now zoomed in to be Hibiki's eye and nothing else. The same individual (?) responsible for turning the video on by "accident" is now messing with her by playing with other functions. ]

[replicatedform]

[Okay, the zoomed in eye is creepy enough for him to comment.]

Oi, what are you doing?

[priforprince]

WAUGH!

[ OKAY THIS TIME SHE REALLY NEEDS TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TURN IT OFF ]

[replicatedform]

[YOW THAT'S LOUD]

Do you need help or what?

[priforprince]

Cease this broadcast!

[ That is totally a thing you can do. You, specifically. Not her.

Right? ]

[replicatedform]

I can't do that! You're the one who started this broadcast first!

[Sure, snap back. That's helpful.]

[priforprince]

This device must be faulty!

[ Everyone on this call is a helpful soul. ]

[replicatedform]

How would I know? It's not like I can tell from here!

[He should calm down. After a moment. Maybe.]

[priforprince]

Don't you have one of these machines as well?!

[ She knows what a cell phone is. It's just herself she's forgotten.

And apparently that means Far Shore-relevant knowledge. ]

[replicatedform]

Of course I do! But if there's something wrong with yours, I couldn't tell anyway! Someone who knows more about technology can help you better.

[He knows how to use tech. He doesn't know how they work.]

[priforprince]

How am I supposed to know who--

[ And then, just like that, the call cuts off. The only warning Hibiki gets that something strange is about to happen is a pop-up flashing on the screen announcing LOW BATTERY.

And now she can't even use the phone to look at herself.

Somehow having her problem solved is not making her feel any better. ]
