five ☠ video | open to both sides!

[There's something distinctly different about Fear when he turns the video on this time. He seems even less human than normal, not breathing, not blinking, as if he's forgotten how to manipulate his form so that it actually appears lifelike.

He manages to move his mouth as he speaks, but the motion doesn't quite sync up with the words echoed in through the mic.]

...so I've finally failed.

[His eyes are unfocused, but he looks downward, contemplative.]

I only got half the city out. It won't be enough- we can't start over, not without Hope. So it ends here, I suppose.

[He takes in his first breath since beginning the recording, letting it out in a long sigh.]

I'm sorry.

Of course I'll work with you, don't be stupid.

[His tone is sharp, but he looks relieved.]

I'll do everything that I can. There are things we can do, I think, and maybe some of them will help.

We can try.

[But he's not exactly hopeful about their chances.]

It depends on how long it takes them to find us. I won't even be able to attempt another movement for at least a few days.

We've got the caves. Without Confusion, they won't be as effective, but they're something. We've got Rage and Delight, and some of the people on this side of the city can fight. We'll hold out.

[He is determinedly hopeful.]

We'll get you the power.

...alright.

[He lets out a long sigh.]

We'll try again.

Good. We'll make it. I know it.
