video / text (one).

[ the video turns on to a deserted, snowy street. it's late evening when there's Rose dropping into the view, landing and dressed in a rather strange orange garb. and look at that! she's lacking her grimdarkness, her skin is normal, and her eyes would assumed to be lavender again, except they're obscured by her hood.

she smiles, but it's slight. ]

Hello.

[ there's a pause as her head tips slightly to the side. it's hard to tell whether she's looking around or thinking or something. ]

It seems that I've been gone for quite the while. I've been a little preoccupied, so excuse my absence.

[ and without another word, she just cuts the feed after that. ]

I've taken the liberty of reading through previous posts during my impetuous absenteeism. There's been quite a large amount of interesting affairs that happened while I disappeared.
Regardless,
My apologies for vanishing on you three.

You get that excited about Christmas, huh?

The concept of exchanging facetious sentimental gestures and encouraging the concept of Capitalism Rules all while backed up with the reminder of disastrous family reunions upon the horizon that will involve drowning one's sorrows in alcoholic libations?

Doesn't everyone?

[viced]

Yeah, I didn't think you were the type.

I don't particularly care holidays such as Christmas anyways.

They're great for the city. I'll admit it, I like them.

Voice

[reilluminates.livejournal.com]

But only because they're great for the City?

[ A moment. His voice isn't flat, but it's like he looks away. ]

Well, I'm sure as shit that my family isn't around. I think I'll just be invested for the City's sake.
