2 - [accidental video]

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

[In a candle lit hallway you see Xelloss press his back against a corner. He stays motionless for exactly three seconds before overtly stalking towards the camera; halfway there a twitch crosses his face.]

[A hand pats down his travel bag, where the book should've been. It's there but...]

[He stops and leans forward, smiling and tapping a finger on his lips. He gives an idle wave and the video cuts off.]

[ooc: this is plot-related but never expanded on (only implied), and it doesn't become important until later. Took cues from the novels so Xelloss is infiltrating a cult for a specific Claire Bible manuscript he heard they had. It isn't the same cult though.

Replies will be ICly sporadic and handwritten.]

Father Xellos? Why are you being so careful?

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

Because it's too early and I don't want to get caught!

[He doesn't mean the time of day.]

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

But what are you doing?

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

That's a secret!

I'm having a look around the place. It's very big!

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

A place you're not suppose to be?

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

I'm definitely supposed to be here. Like I said it's too early.

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

Is everyone still asleep?

Always video~

[Why is a silly looking man waving at her. Did her hand just briefly go up and wave back a little? Yes it did. No it didn't.

But you have her intrigued.]

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

I haven't met anyone since I started looking.

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

[Then he's looking for someone? That somehow seems better]

It looks like you didn't mean for this to record. Someone mentioned to me when I first started that it would be a good idea to hide the book's view when I didn't want to use it.

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

Hello!

[There was really nothing else he could write.]

[hugmyscythe]

Who

are
you?

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

It activated in spite of being hidden in my bag.

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

Everyone can still see everything, even though it was hidden? I didn't know that was possible...

[Her method is going to have to change]

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

I'm Xelloss.

You are?

[hugmyscythe]

I do not know

who you are.

Why

did you wave?

[And the other question is forgotten because...well, she is just too surprised at someone waving at her. But try asking her again.]

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

Apparently so.

Why. was it not possible before? Nice to know I'm first.

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

I was waving goodbye. Is that not the socially accepted norm among the human race?

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

I had never heard of it happening but I'm glad to find out if it can.

[hugmyscythe]

Is

that so?

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

It is so.

Are you alright?

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

You are glad to find out this could happen?

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

If it can happen, I'm glad I know it. It looks like it turns on at strange times. [No more keeping it in her bedroom]

I'm not happy it happened to you.

[hugmyscythe]

You

do not need be

concerned.
Xelloss.

[And a head tilt.]


What were you doing in that video?

[astralwhirlwind.livejournal.com]

[He wasn't exactly asking out of the kindness of his own heart. He was wondering why she sounded so odd.]

I was having a look around.
