[the video clicks on, apparently of its own free will, Shia's computer facing into the darkened apartment. things are pretty quiet for a moment until she dashes in and slams the door behind her, several half-rotted arms jamming in before she can get it properly closed.

but unlike what she would've done about this roughly a year ago, she steels herself, closing her eyes, and then throws the door open, casting a spell with a flourish of her arms that could have only been learned from one big angry psychic. a certain spell that she'd practiced before (and took out part of a stone stadium with:) a wall of flame and force erupts from the air around her, setting the zombies on fire as well as throwing them back and, by the sound of it, over the railing of the apartment building Shia resides in.

she calmly closes the door and locks it, as if that would help, standing with her back to it and a hand clutched at her collar for a moment as she collects herself after that experience... and then glances at the computer, going over and then realizing that it's already on and already recording.]

O-oh-- ... [she decides to roll with it, sitting down and looking at the camera with eyes that, not too long ago, would've been far, far more panicked at this event. but now, she just looks tired and maybe a little sad.]

I don't understand-- I-I'd simply gone out to get some groceries, and then those creatures-- those... terrible things... they appeared-- there are so many of them. I-I saw others attacked, but I...

[she hesitates, her gaze falling.] I can't... reveal this in front of human eyes. What I truly am. They-- they would never understand. Even if I... [she catches herself, closing her eyes briefly before looking back to the camera, her face set.] If-- if there are any other worlds out there with these-- creatures there... if you need any help, please let me know. I'll be there as soon as I can.

[suddenly, she's rudely interrupted by a sound that could only be a very, very pissed off crowd of zombies breaking a window. she quickly shuts the camera off.]

Ah--

VIDEO I FORGOT TO SAY. she's trying to assume the best even though she knows better :(

[rosadaemon.livejournal.com]

Is-- is your world affected, then, as well?

[effulgentxx.livejournal.com]

Suuuure. Not a big deal, though.

[rosadaemon.livejournal.com]

If you're certain. My own seems to be struggling... I wish there was something more I could do.

[effulgentxx.livejournal.com]

Do some of that mojo you've been hiding deep inside again.

[rosadaemon.livejournal.com]

... you're right. I'm just... frightened of what may happen if others see. Humans...

[effulgentxx.livejournal.com]

I thought the purple people eater helped you with that, love.

Purple-- oh!

... no, it's-- I was only taught to better use my magic. Using it in front of so many humans... it could lead to so much trouble.
