[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.]

[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.

He's an idiot. ( But, hey, she calls Faith that too and they're best friends. )

's right. None of us've come this far to die without trying to do summat.

( She's got way too much to do back home to have her life end in another universe, on some random planet, for one thing. )

Try. Do what we can to keep everyone alive over here.

Of course.

[He heaves out a sigh.]

Good luck over there.
