dramadramaduck | [text > video] not even a memory

What a lively online community. I've been aware of its existence for a few days now, but I have not touched my computer in a while. Life's been a busy, after all. I've discovered something about myself recently that will change my life on a grand scale, and it's quite exciting. In fact, it's so exciting, I felt the need to express this here, since I've already finished expressing it in other

Wait. Hold that thought.

[ the post suddenly goes into video mode, though it's possible that Henry did not intend it to be that way. The video feed isn't from his phone, which was how he was typing up his post, but from a security camera nearby. the video footage has no audio or color. ]

There are plenty of dead bodies strewn about the place, which looks like a nondescript hallway. There's hardly any blood anywhere despite all the decapitated limbs, but that's no surprise, because in Henry's hand is a thermal weapon: the ever so familiar Cross Saber. Henry's back is to the camera, dressed in a high collared duster, which is part of his attractive, gray, three-piece suit ensemble. He seems to be watching for something-- oh, there they are. A handful of guys with weapons show up on the screen, some holding guns, some holding other various bludgeoning weapons, but they're all ready for a battle.

Henry hardly seems to move. The hand holding out the saber lifts up slowly for a brief moment before he's gone, a blur of gray that sweeps through the crowd. Before even a single bullet was shot, or a club raised, he had deftly maneuvered through them and decapitated their heads neatly at the base of their necks. Perfect score.

His feet can be seen on the screen, which turn and make their way back to the camera. He looks straight into it, waves with a small smile, and destroys it.

[ back to text. lack of capitalization and proper punctuation indicates that he's a little frazzled from all that despite his calm exterior ]

all this excitement can get a little tiring though think I'll just call it night and go home need to grab some orange juice for her anyway

Impressive as always, Herr...hn but since it's like this I can't expect you to know who I am.

I sense a hint of familiarity in your tone, so I'll assume we've met at one point.

[The wording in that sentence confuses him slightly, but he doesn't show any signs of it. Though he can't imagine how he could've forgotten such an attractive woman...anyway, focus, Henry!]

Please accept my apology, for forgetting you.

You don't have to apologize to me, I'm sure you'll remember my sweet face given enough time, moreover what is your exciting discovery Henry...I'm curious now.

[There's a moment of hesitation, but he cannot hide a small grin at the mention of his new discovery.]

I'm not sure why I'm telling you anything at all, despite our supposed familiarity, but I have a living blood relative.

Ah...you mean Travis? [Klavier is naturally a little surprised to learn that Henry's rewound this far back] Oh, but that is great news, I don't think we ever got around to talking about your brother...though I guess this doesn't make any sense to you right now.

[ooc: btw I haven't forgotten about our thread, but papers have been stifling my ability to thread in a way that I would like. If you\ ever to continue I'm finally out of research paper hell, I just have to apologize for being so slow XD]

[Henry appears momentarily stunned] My, you do know me too well. Hm, well...all right, stranger things have happened to me, so I'll play along.

[ooc; don't worry about it~ i'm always good for backtagging and i tag back to everything and anything no matter how long ago it was heheh ♥ take as much as time as you need!]

Well...I know you moderately well, not every little detail. I do know about your twin though, he's very different from you in terms of personality.

[ooc: ♥]

Hm, that he is. I've yet to see what he's truly like, and I pray this little adventure of his will shed some light onto what sort of man he's grown up to be. [pause.]

Though to be completely honest, things aren't looking too good at the moment. I hope that changes soon enough.

Is something the matter?

[Casual hand wave. A flicker of a frown, but he quickly replaces it with a smile.]

He's an idiot. Nothing too dramatic.

Ah...well Touchdown always did strike me as the headstrong type, I can see how that can be a little distressing.

Hmm, distressing its a good word, but I'll just have to keep an eye out on him for now. [He pauses, then blinks.] I never did ask you your name, have I, miss...?

Well...apart from being distressing he seemed pretty capable...but it's natural to worry about family.

Oh...well you'll remember me soon enough, Herr, but my name is Klavier Gavin and it's always a pleasure.

[Under his breath:] He's hardly what you'd consider family...

Klavier Gavin. Of course, the pleasure is all mine... [But he raises an eyebrow questioningly.]

Well I suppose it's more in a biological sense...though if I recall you weren't raised together so it's not as though you really had an opportunity to bicker or bond in a way brother's might usually...a shared past experience.

[He can recognize a questioning look when he sees it]...Ah? Is something else on your mind, Herr?

[He shrugs halfheartedly at that, not quite sure how to respond to that. ]

Well, I was under the impression that "Klaver Gavin" was a man's name. I can't say I'm an expert in German names, though, so forgive me If my assumptions were completely off the mark.

It's funny you should mention it though, I suppose since you haven't been exposed to this community long...then you wouldn't understand the concept of a community virus yet, would you? It's when the community does unusual things to its members.

All of those men...

I'm sorry you had to see that. That video wasn't meant to go public.

What's going on?

Well...I thought it was rather obvious.

You're attacking a building?

Yes, to put it vaguely.
