003 [Accidental Video Post]
Jul. 13th, 2009 09:07 pmThe screen flickers on to reveal nothing but the faint outline of a shadow standing near what seems to be a building, though which building it is, is entirely indistinguishable due to the overwhelming darkness. The camera seems to be swaying in Jackie's hand, making it obvious that she is unaware that it has been turned on. She stands with her back pressed against the building, her eyes staring out into the darkness with a slightly glazed over look. The camera tilts in her hand when her fingers clench into a fist, and she tries to sink further into the wall at her back.
A nearly silent whining noise escapes her, and she looks startled that the sound escaped, shaking her head back and forth as though denying it. With a deep sigh, she shakes her head once again, this time uttering a few quiet words to herself.
Get a hold of yourself Jacqueline, it's just the dark. There's nothing to be afraid of. You've been through this before, and there isn't any good reason to be afraid...
She repeats the words and variations of the mantra over to herself, and eventually the blackness of the sky and surroundings become the blackness of an empty screen as the video shuts off with an audible 'click'.
[ooc: this takes place after Jackie has left Latimir, and is presumably (?) staying with, er, the other Jackie, and Nill in Horton. She has a not-so-secret-anymore fear of the dark due to the fact that she IS a lantern.]

I've never been a big fan of the dark.

Date: 2009-07-14 11:08 pm (UTC)At least it looks like it's finally starting to clear up some.
It just kind of overloaded me for a minute, what with the sun being covered and the electricity being gone.

Date: 2009-07-16 01:32 am (UTC)I think all of this has made me realize even more how important it is for me to get rid of this stupid chip...
I could have helped...

Date: 2009-07-16 08:35 pm (UTC)I'm not used to being on the sidelines. I don't think any of us really are.
Even if all I can do without a meister is light someone's way, or something small like that, it's still something...

Date: 2009-07-16 01:14 am (UTC)Ah, good. One less thing to worry about, now if we can get this beam in place it'll be great.

Date: 2009-07-16 01:40 am (UTC)I guess it would be counterproductive to come back to help, but if there's anything else I can do, give me a shout.
no subject
Date: 2009-07-16 02:59 pm (UTC)Yeah, no problem, I'll let you know how we're doing. So far so good anyway.
no subject
Date: 2009-07-16 08:30 pm (UTC)That's good news. How does the building seem to be holding up overall? Nothing else looks like it's coming down?

Date: 2009-07-17 11:20 pm (UTC)But hey, they're our friends, so what can we do?
Good luck with that.
All else fails I shall get it tomorrow, cause timezones are fail. <3
Date: 2009-07-17 11:27 pm (UTC)Yep, we're stuck with em. If we don't take care of them no one will.
Heh, thanks.
Yeah, lol <3
Date: 2009-07-18 12:50 am (UTC)That's for sure.
No problem.

Date: 2009-07-18 12:12 pm (UTC)Well, someone has to do it I guess.
