[god i need more icons. Red text means she's speaking Cybertronian (decepticon dialect), so you'll only understand that if, well, you speak Cybertronian.
Chris is doing a video post, which is weird, because she never does that. It's pretty dark in her room, actually -- you can barely make out behind her a few of her prototype hand-made drones (which she uses for home-testing avionics software and AI) and more half-finished model planes than anyone should own.
The elephant (s) in the room of course are those arms, which are now fully visible: metal from the shoulder down, white to the elbow and then dark blue to the fingers. Between the metal plates, there's the faint glow of what looks like violet circuitry. Her eyes also seem very slightly brighter than they were before, the irises just a little bigger.
She looks awful; pale and shaken, like she hasn't slept in a few days.]
I, um.
[She speaks pretty quietly, runs a hand through her hair, takes a deep breath. Her hands are shaking pretty significantly.]
Can't type well yet. Not used to the arms. They also, um, shake, and hurt. I think they are low on power, I don't have an energon source,, whatever energon is, because honestly I have no idea except that I'd need it to fuel these?
Sorry, I hate... hate doing posts where you can hear my voice. I hate my voice, did you know that? Haha.
[She starts wringing her hands, still not really looking at the camera, and then stops when she accidentally pulls her left thumb out, basically starting to cause her arm to transform slightly into a different configuration. She stops, stares, and then gently pushes it back where it belongs.]
Which is funny, right, because I won't fucking shut up in real life, most of the time? But when I was a kid I hated the sound of my own voice and I think it's the audio recording thing, in that when I hear it recorded it makes it worse, so I don't like having it exist in a space where I can hear it...
...
That's not the point of this post, I don't know what the hell I'm doing. Um.
[She runs her hands through her hair, then clasps her hands and rests her chin on them, elbows on the desk, finally facing the camera, though not looking into it.]
I, uh. I put everyone in danger. I'm sorry, god, it was my fault. I should have... I should have fucking known better, go investigate the mine! Ha ha, great plan, when all the info we got was probably planted by Thunder Corp, when another group went already and didn't even FIND anything, of course they were watching it, and went ah, bet the idiots will come back, let's plant a thing that looks like answers and kill 'em and Primus.
people almost died.
[she closes her eyes]
People almost died and I feel like it was my fault. I'm sorry. Primus I'm sorry. I, uh. Um.
[She's shaking a lot harder now.]
I'm going to turn off this video feed, now, and um, maybe try to sleep, but god I am so sorry.

Video, smartphone
You didn't do anything wrong. We all came of our own accord and thought it was worth the risk. Yes, people almost died, but we made it out of there and that's what matters. No one died so the trap failed and we'll be smarter next time.
If anything it showed how well we all work together. We all made it out and those that didn't go in arrived to help us out when we got out. We have an enemy, we know they're afraid enough to try and take us out with traps like those, and we know we can make it out alive. So stop trying to take the blame. It's the enemy's fault, not yours.

Christ, at this rate, literally everyone I know is going to be on this network.
[she rubs at her temples]
You have a point. We did better than the last time we ended up in a situation like this. We just need to figure out a way to go on the offensive, maybe. Not like Casval tried, of course, because we're no military, but...
They tried to hurt us, and...
[She looks at her hands]
They made a mistake, there.

When it comes to fighting back, who knows. We're all getting weird stuff. Maybe someone will get a way to track these guys down or something? All I know is, I've been getting gypped while you ...
[He pauses for a moment as he tried to think of a good way to end that sentence.]
Well you've got some pathos developing. I suggest drinks.

I can wear my jacket to hide the arms I guess.
And trust me, these aren't as cool as they look. They don't shoot anymore and they hurt like hell and make me feel tired and feverish.

Oh I believe it, but you have to admit, it's alot cooler than a scarf, a handgun, and the most upbeat theme song in your head ever.

Black Manor ... got it. When were you thinking cause I'm good for any time really.

[He starts messing with his scarf, looking more than a bit reluctant.]
This will still be ok right?

[Thomas gives a thumbs up, he looks quite excited.]
Who knows? Maybe a drink is just what you need.
