[Video]
[The video cuts in with a jarring shake, the camera tumbling, coming to focus on the bottom of a green couch and a chipped tile floor that probably needs to be mopped. Some unfamiliar voices mumble about "How do we erase this?" or "How the hell did we forget the security feed?" or wondering if they "should go grab one of the alchemists?"
It's the latter question that gets a response from the decided star of today's video, the voice coming from the man picking up the camera and looking close up enough at the lens that you can see the veins in his eyeball.]
Nah, it can't be an alchemy thing if Greed can work it.
[The video focus draws away from his eye as he sets the camera it down on the table for a view of him on the couch, staring at the computer--a device decidedly more than a little anachronistic in a low lit, low-tech, mostly empty bar in which nobody seems to have anything immediately digital on their person. The lot lingering around the back of the couch don't look to be the most savory bunch, in rather tattered clothing, perhaps even recently roughed up, though there's a look about them suggesting that maybe hygiene's never been their highest priority.]
It's got a light on now. We probably just turned it on.
[The man speaking seems to find that both ironic and mildly if not bitterly amusing, smacking his hand over his face and leaning back on the couch with a mix between a sigh and a groan.]
It just fucking figures he can't even be half assed to run the security any more... Guess that's lucky for us.
[Someone else asks if they shouldn't still be looking for the feed to erase the video. "The whole recording's gonna look suspicious."
The man gives a sulking look to the camera before sitting up and at least throwing a messy handkerchief over the visual feed.]
He doesn't even care if the military gets called down on the whole bunch over this drug cartel bullshit, you think he cares about internal spats enough to do anything?
[But still, unseen on the video, he'll try poking at things, trying to manipulate a completely non-intuitive visual interface to delete whatever video might be recording. If the fact that he barely knows what a mouse is much less what a right click does weren't enough to make it an impossible task, the fact that the video's been posted to the community has only made it a more doomed endeavor.]
