Fourth Morph - Video - Backdated slightly after sirens

[ Here is Marco again, but unlike his previous post when he was a smirking, shit-eating smartass, this time he's a little different. A little hard, a little rough, but still mostly the same. He's sitting in a chair, the cheap hotel kind. Looks like the boy still hasn't found a steady place to live in regularly, but he doesn't seem to be too bothered by it.

When he speaks, he lacks nearly all the swagger and a hundred times more of his acidic sarcasm. ]

Hello again.

I did had this whole speech about the attacks and all, but at the end of the day, I just don't care. It's too stupid for me to bother.

[ He moves his eyes upward, in a gesture of thoughtfulness. But his face shows nothing but a calm serenity, but it is the false serenity, the kind that brings about a terrible, despairing rage, the kind that only those who experienced it can recognize it for what it is. ]

I just want to say my mom, Eva, died. Some of you might know her as Edriss.

[ Another pause, as though he searched for words. His brows furrowed slightly, his eyes darken. ]

She was murdered by some crazy psycho redhead. I could call her a hot crazy psycho redhead, except she murdered my mom. That killed the sex appeal right there.

I already destroyed the body, since I heard about people becoming Darkness monsters after death.

[ Edriss was bad enough on her own. Marco is certain he can't handle seeing a monstrous version of Mom walking down the streets of Siren's Port after nightfall. ]

I'm going to make a small memorial tomorrow, nearby the Newcomer Tribute. Funny that when she died back home, there wasn't any body to bury her in, so there was only a memorial service and a really lame funeral. But I can always appreciate a good, twisted irony.

Those who know her, come. Those who don't, shove off.

[ With those words, he reached over and turned off the feed, so he can wait and see who has been making friends with a mass-murdering slave master. ]

My condolences.
blondejokes: (worried ] its been a while now)

[personal profile] blondejokes 2012-08-05 02:12 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I never met her. [ But she couldn't imagine what she'd be going through if either one of her parents were killed here, or back home. ]

[Oh no a sad child her one weakness

so have the public ringleader of a terrorist strike, Marco.]


What time is it? I can stop by to clean the Tribute early. I um, normally go every weekend, but I can make it clean for your memorial.
momchester: (= and then i said get off me grandma)

We send out a list of new names to a company every month, and they engrave them all on.

Which do you want, sweetie? Eva or Edriss? We can do both- you know, Eva "Edriss" and then her last name.

[There were even air quotes in there, isn't she such a nice person.]
momchester: (= lark learning to pray)

[personal profile] momchester 2012-08-06 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
No. I read on the Network that she organized a list of names from the first hunt- but, that... I didn't see it until I came back to life.

[She bites her lip and looks down, striving to keep her shit to herself.]

Was Edriss her middle name?
momchester: (- how can you say you love her)

unhackable

[. . .]

Marco, does anyone else know about this?
momchester: (= oh there's a big surprise)

[personal profile] momchester 2012-08-06 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
I mean, does- no, never mind.

[This kid is obviously hurting badly, and lashing out at anyone who's giving him an opening. She leans in closer, eyes hard and intent.]

I think I know how you feel.

When I was a teenager my dad was possessed by a demon. It... went inside him, took his body over, then killed my mom, my boyfriend, and stabbed himself. It didn't hurt the demon- just my dad. I'll never forget how horrible it was to see my father's face and hear his voice saying- [Her voice almost catches] terrible things to me. It would've been easier if someone else killed him, but- I remember his face. And then I had to tell everyone that it was my dad who did that, and get through his funeral arrangements like that.

The point of that story is just to let you know that I have a lot of experience with weird, terrible things.

You don't have to talk to me- you don't even know me. But if you ever need help for anything, and you don't want to have to explain yourself... now you know one person who's been where you are.
momchester: (= well.. they can tell when it's raining)

[Mary isn't terribly used to teenage boys, but she's used to children and hunters and stubborn men, enough to not let that tone faze her.]

No, I'm sorry. I have a combination of powers that might be able to carve it in myself, but I can't control them yet. I wouldn't want to mess it up.

It'll only be a few weeks, I promise.
momchester: (= your friend is completely retarded.)

[personal profile] momchester 2012-08-07 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
Would you like me to let you know when it's done?

[Well, shit. Some kid had his mom here and then lost her like that? That's about as awful as this place gets.]

...They said none of us died.
inthejunk: (aw jeez...)

Uhhh...

[This is a public feed, and oh right. That was all totally illegal.]

The...uh. I heard wrong. I must have. S-sorry for your loss. Again.
inthejunk: (chump change and it's on)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-08-05 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wow, oops. There's that foot in the mouth thing he's avoided with you so far happening.]

...Oh.
inthejunk: (aw jeez...)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-08-06 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Hey, to be fair there wasn't the kind of transition a kid doped way up on painkillers could follow between those two topics. But clearly this conversation is already totally painful, so he might as well just answer the question.]

...I never met her.
inthejunk: (bristle)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-08-07 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[How the hell do you respond to that? It sounds rotten. Most people would definitely go with empathy here...]

Okay, 'nough with the names. Not who you wanted to hear from, I goddid.
inthejunk: (aw jeez...)

[personal profile] inthejunk 2012-08-15 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
[..Yeah that conversation couldn't have gone well no matter what.]
