⚜ [Video] ⚜

[ Give her a second.

The feed is shaky and unsteady, focus coming in and out. It's, no joke, like a good 30 seconds before Boss stops fumbling with the phone. Sorry, hope you enjoy the close up of her face and hands.

Once she's confident that she has the video feed working, she pulls the phone away like she's taking a selfie (arm's length, good angle on her face, big camera loving smile, holds still) but slowly... Slowly from the bottom of the screen her other hand appears.

Holding up a middle finger.

She doesn't stop until the bird's right next to her cheek. Hi. This is what she thinks of all of this, everything, right now.

... After holding the pose for a few seconds, she's back to fumbling with the phone. She's mouthing curses with no sound coming out as she tries to figure out how to get the damn thing back into text mode. Her point is made, she'd like to be able to actually communicate now!

Ah, you're having fun too, I see.

[Avisheh, meanwhile, is clearly at the Speakeasy and drunk as hell if the glazed over look in her eyes is any indication. Not that she'd be any less glazed over normally, in light of the event. Losing your intelligence is some shit, let her tell you.]

[Normally, she could probably read lips, especially ones enunciated so obviously, but Avisheh just squints at the mouthed words. "I know," maybe? She opts not to guess and make a fool of herself any more than she already has throughout this whole debacle.

The charades, though, are a bit less hard to follow, and Avisheh grins languidly and raises a glass of some ungodly concoction of mostly clearish yellow alcohol into view of the camera. It's vodka, rum, and tequila, if you were wondering. It looks and tastes like piss, but she's not drinking it for the taste.

'S medicine. For my lost voice.

[Avisheh raises her glass welcomingly, spilling some on the counter as she does, and then takes a big, messy swig of it, spilling more on her shirt. She finishes it off with a shake of her head at the bite of alcohol, and then slurs the rest of her speech.]

By all means, girl. Door's wide open.

how was it bad? i mean, the first half of it was just an extreme close-up. interesting stylistic choice, but not the one i'd have gone with, since the rest of the film was pretty low-energy, no dialogue...

though i'll give you credit for the relatable message.

i'm guessing "your new best friend" isn't the right answer here

That's the general consensus right now.

[Though frankly, Sonya would take being mute over what's happening with her right now. Finding other ways to communicate sucks, but it's better than having legs that, right now, are just for show.]

If you mean do the gods like fucking with our heads often? From what I've gathered it happens once a month.

Consider as rent/payment for being able to take things from the shops.
