(\ /) ... don't trust guardians. and don't trust ultimates. unless if they can give me something to prove to trust them at all.

-- archangelsTerrarium [AT] posted a video file. -- [ More security footage. Leveret's office chair is in the middle of their room, right in front of that board of theirs as there's more strings of red thread stringing down from it, more sticky notes, more other cuts of paper and the like stapled about. Leveret themself is sitting back in their chair, body almost listless as their eyes catch a slight glow against the camera feed. They're just staring up at the ceiling, fingers fidgeting with a peculiar Ace of Hearts. There's some smears of a little blood against one corner of it - and some blood that trickles from their nostrils and from their lip. They're just staring up at the ceiling, until there's the repeated sound of knocking against their door. They remain unresponsive, until the knocking repeats again with a bit more force to it. "door's open," they say, voice flat as they remain still in their seat. "come in." The footage corrupts and distorts to abruptly cut off before the figure entering their room is seen, but there's a shadow that gets cast over Leveret's frame for a few seconds in the figure's wake. ]

my heart still has a bit of a pang in it, but i'm trying not to let it slow me down. just need to crunch down on a little more work.

... my chest still feels fluttery. i have a feeling it will pass, but right now it's very inconvenient.

(\ /) oh-- right. still tallying up contestant forms: https://forms.gle/LGtUG7ZQWadtUSaa9 date for the first broadcast is still TBD as i'll have to base it off of the first pickings to cast, but i'll be sure to post updates about that, too.

... oh, great. be still, stupid heart. no need for me to be all riled up for nothing right now.

(\ /) it's raining.

i'm surprisingly still awake, but now it's left me with that reminder of the ache in my jaw and a weird sense of energy and exhaustion at the same time.

plans have changed they're taking my ass to the chug n' squeeze like i'm their son on his first 21st birthday. i'll be back at a time.

-- archangelsTerarrium [AT] posted a video file. -- [ Fuzzy visuals of feedback- still in lieu of the kind of high-angle security footage. Leveret sits in their office chair, winding up a long coil of red thread between their fingers as they whistle a little melody while staring up at their big corkboard project. "red cards, red suits... red blood, hah." They muse to themself, gingerly wheeling the chair from side to side. "how accidentally convenient." Their head tilts up after a beat, staring up at the board as they slowly untangle the thread around one finger. "i suppose i did always prefer warmer colors, in a way-- even before you, mein herr." They laugh, the sound coming out hollow before it trails off; their gaze raises to stare directly up at the security camera. "... so nosy you are now, jon. if you have something you'd like to discuss with me, then you can say it to my--" The footage abruptly cuts off, disrupted and distorted with a blast of static. ]

(\ /) ... hah. hiii curree.

(\ /) alone on mars (my office) and sinking in heavily to my vices (alcohol) as it'll be just me and the board for a couple hours longer. cause i've got some falling to do.

(\ /) my teeth are starting to hurt more lately.

(\ /) make a permanent vow for here and the now get out of my head i hear what she said you cling to the pain in love with your dread oh my god, it’s taking over me and oh my god, it’s always haunting me and oh my god, i think i used to be fun

(\ /) i think. i'm either going to try to go out for a long while, or find a way to knock myself out for the rest of the day to just skip by it.

(\ /) my irises are doing that thing where they're kind of shaking or something like that. taking this as my sign to lay down now.

(\ /) ah. what the hell. sure. have at it. https://forms.gle/bcH8bNKnJmj5xdsT8

-- archangelsTerrarium [AT] posted a video file. -- [ It's the same quality of those security cam footage clips that have been appearing, slightly more staticky as the frame is lower and cuts out view of Leveret's face. Their body is facing a large corkboard -- more cards are now pinned up on it, with some bits of string connecting between some, and snippets of sticky notes and symbols taped to them. As they hum the melody of "Three Letters" from She Loves Me, they seem to be finishing up tying up some red thread around one card - a Queen of Hearts - surrounding it in a circle with sticky notes attached; question marks, a little doodle of a doll with button eyes. Leveret abruptly starts shaking, hands curling up into a fist as it then slams into the corkboard. The camera shakes, displacing itself slightly to pan upwards. There's more cards-- and more strings of thread about, some connecting cards to others, and one also being similarly surrounded in an isolated circle. There's a few notes that are barely visible, but remain unreadable as the footage gets overtaken with static. ]

(\ /) physically exhausted but my mind is so active. great. i love this.

(\ /) i'm also just already in an enclosed location, so. not exactly any dice i'm particularly concerned about. i already know who has permission to board and who doesn't. so if anyone with unfavorable desires *wants* to give it a try, that's a whole other thing they have comin' for 'em.
