Video

[buywithme]

[Video clicks on at an odd angle, it's pointed upwards and is recording from the floor, where it's just been dropped. Prefect is leaning heavily against a wall, staring into space blankly. His eyes are slightly glazed, and as he lowers himself to run his hand across the floor, searching for the dropped journal, he doesn't bother to look down at it.

His hand finally brushes against the journal, and after a couple of minutes fumbling, the screen is covered by his palm. The video lurches as Prefect finally picks up the journal, and there's a brief shot of his palm running across the wall of his cabin, searching for the door handle out of his room.

Finally, the door opens, and the camera points down, just transmitting a shot of the floor as Prefect moves very, very carefully across the corridor. The shot of the floor stops, and changes direction as Prefect tries to navigate his way to the infirmary.]



[ooc: Prefect's power is seeing Auras. And nothing else. So basically, he can see GLOWING SHAPES OF LIGHT when people are in front of him, but other than that? ALL IS DARK, so he doesn't know that the journal has switched on at all. Feel free to yell at him through the journal, or spam at him in the corridor!]

[French Accent + Dog noises = MARQUIS. Prefect relaxes visibly, and furrows his eyebrows in confusion. None of this makes sense.]

I'm... I'm not sure, Comrade. I can't... I woke up today with my vision severely impaired.

Yes, we're having a flood. Where are you trying to go, and why didn't you call for help?

Spam!

It's a flood? [Prefect raised his eyebrows, then smiled slightly.] Oh, then... I probably don't need to go to the infirmary? [He paused, then reached up to scratch the back of his neck a little awkwardly.] I didn't... I thought it might be better, if this was going to be a long term problem, that I didn't say anything until I knew what was wrong.

Jim Henson had a 'wait and see' attitude and now we have wrong-sounding Muppets, Prefect!

[The Marquis chuckles, a little relieved to see him relax.] And that would have been a foolish choice to make either way. You can find the buttons on your journal, can you not?

Prefect just didn't want to worry people :c

[Prefect leans against the wall slightly, pressing one hand over his eyes, he lets out a sigh.] It's not so hard to get to the infirmary from my room, Comrade, and I didn't... I thought it was best not to announce to the entire ship that I was having difficulties.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

But you might have contacted a few. [He frowns] So where will you go? Back to your room, or the infirmary?

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure, Comrade. [Prefect flattens his palm against the wall.] I think... back to my room. If the flood isn't more than a few days then I can just wait it out there.

[impure-tale.livejournal.com]

Do you require assistance?

[Prefect tilted his head back slightly, as if doing so would actually alter his field of vision in some way.]

I... I think I'm all right, Comrade. If I keep my hand on the wall, then I should be able to get back without too much trouble.
