[ 01 ] Video; Possible Action for housemates?

[kingpawn]

[ The video starts rolling well before Walter's prepared to sit down and talk. What the viewer gets is about twenty minutes of a frail and sickly thin, older white man in his tighty whities, staring blankly into the screen. A bottle of wine is in one hand, continuously pouring the contents into a glass as he drinks them down only to refill it again. It's the alcoholic channel, with a few fascinatingly thoughtful jaw clenches and an unwavering staring competition with the lens. Finally, he clears his throat and speaks up. ]

So this is supposed to connect me to others 'like me?' These so-called imPorts...

[ He studies his empty glass, turning it in his hands. ]

There's one question that never got answered, and maybe you can give me some insight? Clue me in a little because I sure saw a lot of fire and brimstone a few days ago...

[ He looks up, dead eyes focusing on the screen. ]

Is this supposed to be hell?

[ Walt is not even sure what he's seeing. He stares at her and then the raccoons. Technologically advanced raccoons -- just when this world couldn't get any stranger. ]

Are you sure that's a power and not an infestation? Does rabies exist in this world? I would be a little concerned about that, considering...

[ He makes a gesture at the raccoons. ]

They're gentlemen. They don't bite without asking first.

[kingpawn]

I guess....if you have to live with them, it's a good thing they have manners?

[aggressiveapathy]

Have to? They're way better than every human here. And alien. And robot. And ghost. And...

God. We have too many things capable of complaining on the internet here.

[ She has seriously depressed herself with that list of just how many sentient creatures there are to put up with in this world. ]

[kingpawn]

[ Humans, yes. Aliens, sure. Robots, definitely. Buuuut.... ]

Ghosts? There are ghosts here? Or do you mean people who have died and were brought back to life in this place?

[aggressiveapathy]

Both. I think. It's more technicality at a certain point?
