REBIRTH: 004 ⚜ audio

[entreats]

[ The most noticable thing about the video the moment it starts up is the continuous clattering sound in the background - like something made out of metal keeps bumping into something over and over again, or rather multiple metal things since it sounds almost like a metal garbage bin rolling down stairs. The sound is muted just slightly, maybe by a pillow or so, but it's still quite obviously there and pretty annoying. ]

I think it's for the best that no one visits me the upcoming days. Or until whatever is going on is over. That would be all.

... Although, if someone can tell me what exactly is going on other than us being screwed around with again, that would be appreciated too. [ the sound continues, almost more insistent as if it's demanding attention, and somewhere from a slight distance a cat screeches. Ange just groans in annoyance before clicking off the feed again. ]

[dreamsonwings]

Are you feeling ok?

[Audio]

[entreats]

I'm just fine. The only thing I'll be getting at this rate is a headache.

[ The sound is still continuing in the background continously. ]

... And a grumpy cat.

[Audio]

[dreamsonwings]

What IS that in the background anyway?

[Audio]

[entreats]

You mean the sound? Because you know the cat is Bern-chan.

[ what else could she mean, Ange.. ]

[Audio]

[dreamsonwings]

Not Bern-chan, that clanging sound.

[Audio]

[westdetective]

Were ya affected?

[Audio]

[entreats]

[ The sound goes on in the background, even as she speaks. ]

I don't know by what exactly, but something strange is going on with me, yeah.

[Audio]

[westdetective]

What'dya mean by strange?

[Audio]

[entreats]

I have my chip in, but I can use my powers.

[ ... ] No, I think 'using' them is not the right word here, more like they are acting up by themselves.

[Audio]

[nameofexorcist]

Based on the network entries, some individuals are acquiring new powers.

[Audio]

[entreats]

That doesn't really help my situation though, I'm more then familiar with this. [ 'this' being the still continuing clattering sound in the background, probably.. ]

It's just that it shouldn't be able to happen while I still have my chip in.

[Audio]

[nameofexorcist]

[Hm, that is a bit odd...] If the scientists are responsible for this, they can most likely bypass the chip's effects when affecting us.

[Audio]

[entreats]

But even though that reasoning works, it actually only makes things more irrational, right?

I mean, why would they chip us and then make our powers work again all the same?

[fierybluebird]

So you have a cool new superpower too?

[entreats]

I guess you could call it a superpower by a stretch, but it isn't cool nor new. ... And in this state, it's just annoying.

[ probably since the clattering sound the continues in the background is pretty annoying in the long term.. ]

[fierybluebird]

Maybe you can control it with your emotions! Think happy things and see what happens!

[entreats]

[ ... Should she.. really do this.. it just sounds ridiculous but-- oh well, nothing to lose, so there's a moment of silence as if she's actually trying it, but nope, the clanging sound continues as loud as ever. ]

Nope, doesn't seem it's very pleased by that either. Guess that's a good thing, otherwise I'd have to fake being cheery.

[dewebbed]

You got the superpower bug too, huh? [ If Ange strains her own ears, there's the sound of the whipping wind. This is the worst kind of nostalgic. ]

voice.

[entreats]

[ She can hear it - if not just because it's a welcome distracting from the headache-inducing clanging that still goes on in the background. ]

So, what's your new superhero name, Weather Man?

voice.

[dewebbed]

More like...Fly Guy. [ beat ] Uh, no rhyme intended. But I think that's all I can do. What about you?

voice.

[entreats]

You can fly, seriously? [ and all the girls say he's pretty fly for a white guy.. ]

I didn't get any new sort of power. It just seems my powers from back home are randomly going into overdrive even though I still have my chip in.

[ryougi]

... you doing alright there?

[entreats]

Aside from having the biggest headache of my life from all this noise and a frightened cat sprawled out over me, I guess you could call it 'alright'.

[ryougi]

Headache, huh? I'm guessing it's coming from whatever's going on then, right.

[entreats]

It's that stupid noise. If you hear it for long enough it's enough to drive any person insane.
