008. video.

G'day g'day, this is Sarissa Theron, local hero and devastatingly good looking rural.

( She seems in a better mood than last time she posted, and better form - and sure, she is, but it's also Sarissa trying very very ahrd to be Okay, and definitely not actually being Okay. Still, there's a healthy flush to her cheeks, and unlike last time she's got a smear of mud on her cheek and is looking like she's been working outside. Wherever she is, she's definitely in a field, and there's a shed nearby. )

I know, two posts from me, in one month? Overkill, definitely. But this is so important. Or, should I say,

( and she grins, brightly, before turning the camera... ) sow important?

( Yes, viewers. In-frame is a very large sow, pink with black patches. Around her are nine little piglets, varied from all pink to speckled to covered in patches, and one that is totally black. )

I just rescued these guys from a bit of a situation. Got them a special shed and I just finished the fences on the fields a couple days ago, so good timing, but I gotta head back into town to pick up some more supplies and that. If anyone has any fruit and veggies or pig feed or straw or - I mean, anything that you wanna donate to the rescue pig extravaganza, lemme know.

( A thumbs up; she is so excited. Pigs!!! ) And I need help coming up with names, because they can't all be Hamlet or Francis Bacon.

Right, but we're not keeping them.

[ Her voice drifts up on the last word, making a statement into a question. ]
coppelganger: (safe european home)

[personal profile] coppelganger 2017-02-26 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
There are ten of them.

[ Sarissa..................... pls ]

We aren't pig farmers.

[ She attempts a laugh, to lighten the mood, but it comes out as a scoff. She's pissed, is the thing. Pissed that Sarissa didn't ask her about this first, but even more pissed that it's something Sarissa would consider at all. ]

Come on. You know this is a stupid idea.

Yeah, you know me, I'm a regular animal abuser. Piss off. You know that's got nothing to do with it.
coppelganger: (no reply)

If I'm being condescending it's only because you need to hear it.

It means you're being an irresponsible shit, and I don't like that.
coppelganger: (everything's gone green)

It's bad enough you got that thing— [ And suddenly the camera is spinning to settle on Mendel in his aviary— ] Now you want more animals? What next, are you gonna start fostering kids too? Better start now so they'll really feel abandoned when you port out and never come back.

[ She spins the camera again so her face is visible. She doesn't really care about how hurt Sarissa looks, in this moment. ]

The shit you do here matters. These things aren't just a fun project you can take up and then abandon later, and you will, no matter what, because someday we're all going to go home and not come back. They're alive and they have feelings and they're gonna wonder where the hell you are. And fuck you if you think that's fine.
coppelganger: (no more surprises)

[personal profile] coppelganger 2017-02-26 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
No, fuck you. You aren't listening to a word I say.

[ She stands up and walks to the stairs. ] This has nothing to do with Cosima, either, but nice try.
coppelganger: (sound of silver)

[personal profile] coppelganger 2017-02-26 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Cosima's kid is dead. She's gonna port out herself at some point. It's not the same thing at all.

[ With that, she starts climbing the stairs, stepping carefully around the hole halfway up. ]

I'm going to my room.
coppelganger: (clampdown)

[personal profile] coppelganger 2017-02-26 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe if you stopped feeling sorry for yourself for two seconds you'd realize I have a point.

[ This is called down from Sarah's room, and followed by the slamming of her door. ]
