ninth jump \\ [video]

[classdismissed]

[The video cuts on very suddenly. The fact that the camera is angled down at a pair of black boots on a grassy field suggests that it's not entirely intentional. The owner of said boots sounds like he's on the verge of either a complete breakdown or some kind of homicidal rampage.

The view shakes violently as Griffin gestures emphatically.]

Yes, I know how to work my bloody NV, I've been here!

Look pal, you need to calm down. I know, it's scary--

You're not listening. Tell me what the date is or the only scary thing that's gonna happen is me snapping your neck.

... January 27th, 2012.

[There's a long beat before Griffin answers. He's less angry and more shaken now.]

It hasn't even been two weeks? You're telling me that--

[Just as accidentally as it had been started, the video ends when Griffin tightly grips his NV and happens on the wrong button.]

[[OOC: Surprise? Griffin is returning after spending about two months in his world. Nothing extraordinary happened to him.]]

-what? [Whatever.] I mean your personal timeline. How long it's been determines what kind of booze I need to break out.

Well let's see. I got pulled from my original world in summer 2008, got dropped off in this place in winter 2010. Spend a year here, get pulled from here in winter 2012, get dropped back in my world in summer 2008. Two months later, get pulled back into Siren's and it's supposedly only about ten days since I left it.

My personal timeline is shit. Sound like a good booze kind of situation to you?

[paterelohim]

Yeah, that'll do it.

[Pause. What do you even say?]

Anna was really bummed you left. Have you seen her?

[audio | private | easily hackable]

[classdismissed]

She was? [Damn it, O'Conner, sound more like a tool, why don't you?] Uh, no, not yet.

[audio | private | easily hackable]

[paterelohim]

You should- I mean, she really was. She made a public post asking if anyone saw you.

[audio | private | easily hackable]

[classdismissed]

She did? [DAMN IT.]

She was probably just... concerned. In that good person way that she is.

I'll get a hold of her.

[audio | private | easily hackable]

[paterelohim]

[Yeah, sure. That's all. Just being a good concerned citizen.]

Good luck, man. [With her. In that universal hurr-hurr-go-get-'em guy tone that every man knows.]

[classdismissed]

I don't need luck. [... He thinks. Does he?]

Shut up.

[audio | private | easily hackable]

[paterelohim]

What? I'm just saying, good luck.
