o13. ♌ action / video

[Scene 1 / action / backdated to Jan 1st]

[Nepeta was currently in the cafeteria, but pretty much all the food on her tray was untouched. Like many others, Nepeta had received a strange item in her dorm. It was a photograph. Nothing unusual, and yet so very, very unusual due to what it contained. It was a picture of her, Equius, and Vriska. Familiar faces, yet so very unfamiliar.

For starters, she had gills. Gills, belonged only to sea dwellers. She had been staring at herself for quite some time now. It was not the only shocking thing, because it wasn't simply a matter of her being a sea dweller, but if the color of her symbol on the clothing she wore was any indication...

It was Tyrian. Vriska, was yellow. And Equius, oh boy. He might just have a hernia if he ever saw this picture because he was red. Bright red. It was a little shocking to see him wearing it--how had he not been culled? She wondered what Karkat would make of this too. They were all older, roughly two sweeps it looked, and yet even though he was so low on the hemospectrum, he looked happier than she had ever seen him. The picture in full: she was walking a bit ahead of them. Her clothes were fairly simple, colorful much like Feferis, but unlike her she did not wear as much jewelery. She had a thoughtful expression on her face and seemed to have been speaking, pointing off to something that could not be seen.

Behind her walked Equius and Vriska. The both of them were wearing uniforms of some sort, and while their symbols were still present, in their breast pocket was her own. Strangest of all, perhaps, was that they were holding hands and sharing a secretive look.

Nepeta knew that Equius and Vriska got along pretty well, having grown up together but she never would have thought of them being in a quadrant together. Yet there was just something so natural and blissful about the way they looked that she couldn't help but wonder. That wasn't the only thing, written on the back of the picture in her own handwriting was a letter]

[The quirk was different, and the color of course, but it was definitely her handwriting.]

Scene 2 / video / today

[The feed turns on to show a rather excited looking Nepeta sporting a blue hat. It was her trademark hat--the one she always use to wear back home. She had always adored that hat and felt it to be something akin to a security blanket. She had given it to Equius before the whole incident with Gamzee had gone down, and she had been brought here so she had been without it for so long.]

Look! I woke up today and my hat was here. I don't know how--it was left back home when I was brought here but now it's back! [She giggles, and tugs it down so that it covers her eyes]

Did anyone else get anything?

[Suddenly she's looking over her shoulder at the picture in her hands, obviously curious.] And what is that?

[She knows you're hiding something, Neps. She knows.

So that's why she just slides in the seat next to her and smiiiiiiiiles.]


Sure doesn't seem like nothing!

[She sniffs.] Fine. Just show it already, jeez!

WELL ISN'T THAT JUST NOSTALGIA ON A FUCKING STICK.

HAPPY BELATED PERIGREE, NEPETA.

SORT OF.
I WATCHED A FUCKING BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF CINEMA THAT DOESN'T NORMALLY EXIST IN THIS SHITHOLE OF A HUMAN-INFESTED ENRICHMENT FACILITY.

[personal profile] ragesnake 2012-01-05 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
I MEAN SOMEHOW OR ANOTHER I WAS GRACED WITH THE PRESENCE OF AN ALTERNIAN MOVIE, NEPETA.
THE SHIT THEY CALL "CINEMA" HERE...
IT JUST CAN'T EVEN HOLD A CANDLE TO TROLL WILL SMITH.

[personal profile] ragesnake 2012-01-05 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
DO YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT I HAVE LET YOU GO ALL THIS TIME WITHOUT SEEING--
THAT CAN BE FIXED.
THOUGH TO BE FAIR THIS IS LESS A MOVIE AND MORE A CONSECUTIVE SERIES.
BUT AN ENTIRE SEASON OF THE THRESH PRINCE IS SOMETHING NO TROLL SHOULD GO SWEEPS WITHOUT SEEING.
TO BE FAIR I RECEIVED AN ENTIRE RACK OF MY FILMS FROM ALTERNIA-- I DON'T THINK I WANT TO KNOW HOW, TO BE ENTIRELY HONEST -- BUT I SPENT MOST OF THE PERIGREE WATCHING THE THRESH PRINCE.

[personal profile] ragesnake 2012-01-05 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WILL HAVE TO BE FIXED.
IF I TOLD YOU IT WOULD SPOIL THE BEST PARTS.
I'LL JUST HAVE YOU COME BY AND WATCH IT SOMETIME.
FOR ENRICHMENT PURPOSES, OF COURSE.

...I DON'T HAVE CLASSES ON THE WEEKENDS, AND I'M PRETTY SURE I'M CAUGHT UP ON EVERYTHING.
WHENEVER'S FINE.

That's really neat! It suits you. :)

I got a costume I had at home. I never really liked it; I think I was happier without it.

[Mikuru is just going to ignore the question about what kind of costume it is...]

I think I might do. But it almost seems like a waste - who knows when something from home will turn up again?

I don't think even the drama department would take this.

But giving it away is a really good idea!
