[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.

For a moment, she misses Tuuri, misses being able to yell for a translator, even though that's stupid because Tuuri didn't know whatever language this is, and that's the stupidest possible reason to miss Tuuri. There are too many reasons.
Ugh. Depressing, too depressing.]
The only thing I could make out from that is there was a swear. I hope it was a good one.

He'll be nice. For once. ]
It means 'shit.'

Not only that he's speaking normally now, but that he finally broke down and talked to her because of a swear.]
Hah! Shit. That one I know. Drittsekk is my favorite, personally.

Sounds hardcore. What's that mean?

Shitbag. Feel free to use it, it sounds far better in Norwegian.
