Ned § Video 01 § Day 57

[ The video feed switches on upon Ned's determined face. It's his first video communication; he hasn't been using the network much, but this is an important community matter. ]

Does anyone know who is responsible for these? [ Ned waves a copy of that mysterious flyer which has popped up around town so suddenly. He turns the camera back to his own face, talking directly to his fellow captives. ]

Whoever it is, it seems to me like they are trying to sow the seeds of doubt and turn us on one another. Make us so suspicious of one another so we can't work together. Which makes me think it might have come from the people who are keeping us here. And it makes me think that we're starting to worry them. [ There is an edge of anger to his voice, beneath the surface, if you listen closely enough. ]

But I think they're underestimating us. Gossip? Really? [ He half-laughs and shakes his head in amused disbelief. ] We're all grown-ups here. We aren't going to be- to be manipulated by some anonymous bullies. [ The spite in the way he delivers that last word makes it sound as if he's had some experience with bullies. ] We just need to trust one another, and not let this nonsense come between us. Part of that is... coming clean.

So. Me first. [ Ned swallows, takes a moment to collect his courage. It's a big thing to confess, even if plenty of people already know about it. For all his big talk, honesty is against Ned's very nature. But this isn't exactly a normal place, and at this point, owning up is just a part of damage control. ]

...It's true. I brought someone back to life. [ He exhales, half in relief. It's done, now. No going back. ] It's not like that was a secret. It happened in broad daylight and there were like, a dozen witnesses, so this- [ He brandishes the paper again ] is not exactly an exposé, is it? As for being 'mint-in-the-box', well, I don't even know what that means, so I can't say if I am one way or another.

[ Jesse maybe looks a little indignant at the sharp tone, but the apology is enough to make Jesse settle down. He wrinkles his nose - he gets it, he guesses. ] S'fine.

... Shit, though. He died, right, though? I mean, he ain't gonna be a problem again - unless he comes back. [ D: ] People have died here, they come back sometimes. Y'think that's gonna happen?
rigging: (look here.)

[ Aw, shit. Jesse didn't mean to freak him out. ]

Well - fuck, I dunno, there was just this guy, before. Party Poison? He uh. He died, and came back a day or so later, I guess? But I dunno if that's a thing that happens all the time. I dunno if it was a fluke, cause - he killed himself on accident, so.
