@captain.eide; video
[The video feed pops onto the network like a fever dream, swaying back and forth, upside down and sideways, with occasional flashes of the walls of a private hospital room, the humming light of a force shield barrier over the door, and a TV in the corner showing a gameshow, a flash of a nurse wearing a breathing mask over her face.
Then, upside down, a face with wide violet eyes and red hair peers into the camera from far, far too close. Just for a moment, before the video feed starts moving jerkily up and down as Sigrun shakes it violently.]
How is this stupid little thing supposed to keep me occupied?!
[It's halfway between plaintive and annoyed, and the nurse can be heard in the background, protesting that she's using it wrong, and Sigrun's loud argument that she 'ISN'T STUPID!' and 'KNOWS WORDS!' before the video cuts out.
...and then cuts back in a few moments later.]
Like this?
[Now it's right side up and Sigrun is staring squarely into the camera, wearing a simple grey scrub top and with her mouth pursed up crookedly, and a skeptical expression on her face.]
Helloooo? I was told there were people to talk to in this thing.

No way. Do I look stupid?

Besides, what does the opinion of a tiny little man mean anyway?

[A beat, and she's suddenly smirking.]
At least not small enough to fit in this thing. The nurse already explained it just shows me pictures or words from other people who aren't here. See, not stupid, so stop treating me that way!
[Another beat, and then-]
I take it back. I think I do believe you when you say you're a tiny little man though.
[Ouch Sigrun. Low blow.]
