track two | text/audio;

[there is what looks distinctly like a hardwood floor. and attempts at writing in blood on it. that's a network number, anyway. those of you who remember this sort of thing might remember it as belonging to a recent arrival to the Secret Numbers Club.

whatever effort that was to accomplish was quickly abandoned a few scribbled attempts at letters in. Blues managed to get back to his laptop, groping around his desk to make his way. he clenched his jaw to keep himself from screaming again as another wave of agony hits from where his eyes used to be. it felt like something was pushing its way in.

remembering he'd left it open on a fresh Word doc, he enters his number. he'd rarely been so glad for touch typing. before he types anything else, the network will be greeted with another barely-restrained scream. he doesn't trust himself to speak right now.]

[he's got new eyes coming in and he has no fucking idea what's happening to him.]

[uh]

Hey, dickhead, first, breathe. Second, can you say your address? Nobody fucking call 911.

Hopefully Strider or Solus or somebody sees this. Uh.

Am I seriously the first one on this shit? Christ.

Okay, just talk to me. Where the fuck is your apartment? Address, please.

[there's a long pause. shaky ragged breaths. he's trying to keep his shit together as best as he can. still, a forced laugh.]

Course it's you who shows up first, shit.

Don't...agh, fuck! [another lance of pain cuts him off.] Motherfucker...

I don't trust saying it on an open line.

YOU ARE BLEEDING YOU IDIOT.

BUT OKAY, IF YOU WANT TO BE A PARANOID MOTHERFUCKER, I STILL HAVE YOUR CELL PHONE NUMBER. DO YOU THINK YOU CAN ANSWER YOUR PHONE AT LEAST.

.... Shiiiiitttt, what? What? What the fuck... ok... ok. Has someone called Dr. Strider or Dr. Solus yet?!

I tried, they're not answering, probably busy? I don't think Mordin actually sleeps so if HE'S not answering, it's "probably has some emergency."

Fuuuuuccck... so what do we do?!

Do you know first aid, at all? I know SOME stuff. I think there's an EMT on the boards too, he's Gomez's human. Uh...

I mean, I'm going to his place with bandages until someone with actual medical experience gets on. You can come with, if you think you can be useful.

Address, now. Dr. Solus, LSR clinic - will be there as soon as I can.

He doesn't want to give it over the network because he's a dumb paranoid butt even when he's bleeding to death, apparently. I got it off him, it's [ADDRESS].

I'm actually outside his door, I figured SOMEONE should go. Um, any advice? I've got bandages, disinfectant, painkillers, but that's about it.

Take image if possible and send - otherwise, describe injuries. Stop whatever bleeding you can - use bandages. Will be there as soon as possible.

[Picture: so it looks like Raul's eyes have liquefied in his skull, which is lovely! There looks like there's some metal in the very back, maybe, but it's hard to see amidst all the... yeah]

this is reminding me of what happened when i got my eyes but way worse if that makes sense

maybe mine were as bad but i didn't notice becuase I couldn't see it? dunno

Fuckin' factor.

[It is, needless to say, not conveyed over audio; his eyelids are low, and his most disturbed expression is a grim smile the way a hyena laughs - toothy but joyless. His voice still starts rising in a flavor of intrigue.]

Sing for me, this IS one of the so-called "Echoes" we're "lookin'" at, right?

[and this response comes through several hours later, after the process has finished and he's had time to rest. popping half a vicodin and taking a gulp of water.]

Yeah. First one after I end up in the Numbers Club and this shit happens.

[He certainly sounds as if he's better than he would've been at the time.]

Heh. I was gonna say 'least this might give you stuff to look forward to.

Edited 2013-07-12 22:52 (UTC)

Oh my god that's blood that's blood that's fucking blood oh my god--

[ SCREEEEEEEE

excuse her while she abandons network before even getting to the typed part ok

she'll probably have stopped wigging out by the time Blues is ready to actually respond to things, assuming that's A Thing That Happens ]

[Well, she don't see anything directly, but what's presented makes it easy to put two and two together.]

OH HOLY HELL, DUDE!

'UNPLEASANT SIDE EFFECTS' MY ASS, THAT'S ONE HELL OF AN UNDERSTATEMENT.

[Yeeeeeeah time to kill that video and go back to hoping that she doesn't have any kind of shit like this happen to her.]

[[Goddamn he's so glad he hadn't had any nasty changes like so many others are starting to...]]

You gotten anyone for back up yet?

Try and stay calm. Sit down and lean forward, deep breaths. Don't worry about typing or any of that shit, just get your breathing under control and block out the pain best you can until someone gets there.

[he sounds...tired, and still sort of pained.]

Yeah. Chris and Dr. Solus came to my place.

I'm fine now. Well. Sort of. I can see and I'm not bleeding, anyway. Just gonna say vicodin is a fucking beautiful thing, far as the rest of it goes.

Got an unasked for upgrade or something? If you're back to seeing again. [[as he's strongly reminded of Shiro heaving up his stomach not too long ago...]]

Uh. Yeah, you could say that. Just a second.

[there's a pause, before he puts up a close-up photo focused on his eyes.

obviously artificial. matte black material, glowing red lights corresponding to where his irises should be, finished with what are clearly camera lenses and shutters at the center.]

[she's seen far worse in her games and movies than messages written in blood to really be as phased as she should be by the display, even when he starts screaming. considering her first encounter with Blues the idea of him going horrifically blind is actually a bit amusing to her, so long as she doesn't really think too long about the nature of it.

she writes in text, of course, because every additional grain of salt she can pour in the wound is necessary. if he ever recovers enough to read then she wants a worthwhile message to greet him]

Oh, this reminds me of one of your quaint Western songs; how did it go? "Eye scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream"?

Well, something like that anyway. My English sometimes escapes me when it comes to popular culture.

Good luck avoiding umbrellas in the future. ♪(´ε｀ )

[okay, this is a horrible idea. but he's pissed off, tired, and slightly hazy from the vicodin.]

FUCK YOU AND THE BANDS YOU LIKE.

Are you intending to do it personally? Legality aside that's going to be a bit difficult logistically, considering how poor your aim was prior to this debacle.

Bitchy cat-hating goth lolitas get out and never return.
