video, un: j.k. [post-butterfly effect]

[ On the screen is one Cain, also known as Romulus, commonly known in the city as Jacob Kane. He looks normal. Normal as he's ever looked, really, but the confidence that he lacked during the recent event is back in full force and he's very nonchalant about it all. He's at a flimsy-ish table with a laptop off to the side where the camera is obviously his propped up phone instead. ]

Hey! Long-time no talk, Riverview Quarantine. Just a few things. If you met me over the last week and a half or so, that was... technically me but not. You know that thing that was going on? Yeah, that. Don't worry about it. Forget about all that.

Quick catch-up for those who have (or haven't!) met me, I go by Jacob Kane nowadays. [ Not Romulus. Nope. This total 180 is completely normal considering he hardly looks any older or different at all. ] My job while I'm here is designing phone apps. I've been here for about two months now and I think this is my first actual post on the network. Anything interesting happen while I wasn't looking?

to Doom;
Still good for lessons?
to Shai;
Thank you. For everything you did.
to Natsume;
Seen anything like our colorful friend lately?

And it was a stupid choice, and you should have known better than to let him make it. I was putting him to his best application and when we met he made the choice of coming with me back to the Quarantine.

[She's not crying, you're crying. God, she hates that her eyes water when she's angry.]

Oh just shut up already, what do you know?

[It seems she's done using logic. Were Walter still around, he'd easily confirm that she'd simply suggested bringing him out of the wilderness and he'd agreed without thinking about it. And since that doesn't help her, she's not nothing to fight back with.]

I didn't make any mistakes. I did everything right.

[That anger is being replaced by a bit more anxiety and sadness each time she speaks. A bit like a child throwing a temper tantrum, she's less angry at him and more angry at herself, and now she just wants things to go her way again.]

[She's no longer speaking. Instead, her upset has caused her child to revolt again, and she's ended up as dizzy and nauseous as she is ashamed and sad. She just ends up in tears, pressing her face to her knees and looking absolutely pathetic.

She doesn't want to be proven wrong, but she can no longer deny that she has been.. if only she'd stop getting sick every time she got particularly upset.
