video ● eleventh reflection

[ FORWARD-DATED TO THE EVENING OF THE 23RD. (As tags will be slow for a while after.) ]

[There's a click as the feed starts and Saya hums a bit. She looks a bit tired but there's nothing about her demeanor that specifically tells that she's been haunted for the last couple days.]

The eve of Christmas Eve, guys! I figure most of us are pushing back our holiday plans considering everything that's happening, but I've found the most reliable mailman, so I hope some of you get your presents! Is everyone managing with your ghosts, though? I had one of my own but I haven't seen him lately. Then again, he always had that habit with disappearing. But if you ever need a place to crash or someone to talk to, you know where to go~

[She grins cheekily. Though suddenly her expression is confused.

What was that chill?

Will you continue to destroy others, witch?

The air is electrified. Everything is tense. Every fiber of her being on edge. Him. That voice. That insult. Only he would- Only her murderer would.

The broadcast is left forgotten as she whips around in her chair, her back to the SFC now as it lay on the table, entirely neglected. Because all at once, she's forgotten. Forgotten the curse, forgotten the ghosts, forgotten everything. Only remembering that she is facing the man who took her life.

Nevermind that this voice is only in her head.]


H-Hey.... I-I liked Train better. Why are you here? I don't want to- to....

[--to die again.

Her voice shakes, much as her frame does now. All the worldly experience that she exudes in her posture and confidence has been stripped from her now, just as she feels that the world has been yanked from underneath her.

Train Train Train. You don't even deserve to say his name, witch! He's not here to save you now. And truly, I will not fail to cut out your heart-

She leaps to her feet and knocks the SFC off the table in her haste. It clicks off. There will be no audience as she loses her mind.]

For the most part. Couple of 'em don't even say much; they're just there.

... I don't know if that's better than having a screaming psycho ghost or not.

When one of them is your father, just being around is too much.

... I gotcha. But hey, if they're not saying anything, they might be easier to ignore?

[identity profile] ceruleanvices.livejournal.com 2010-12-24 07:37 am (UTC)(link)
Just not really used to looking up and seeing him - or the rest of them, for that matter.

[identity profile] sweeperesque.livejournal.com 2010-12-24 08:06 am (UTC)(link)
... yeah. That's the off-putting thing about this curse, isn't it?

I had a friend visit me before this guy. I never thought I'd see him again but then there he was.

Mmhm.

Heh. I've got an old buddy here, too. Wish he'd changed clothes beforehand, but I guess that part's the fault of this place.

[identity profile] sweeperesque.livejournal.com 2010-12-24 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... Kinda strange to have 'em around for Christmas, huh?

[identity profile] ceruleanvices.livejournal.com 2010-12-24 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Mhmm. Especially in this place.

[identity profile] sweeperesque.livejournal.com 2010-12-24 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah well... I'd like to yell at whoever's in charge of this place for a number of things.

[identity profile] ceruleanvices.livejournal.com 2010-12-25 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
You and I think just about everyone else here.

Too bad riots aren't my style.
