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.

I'll be honest, I doubt that there's much that I can do against most of the things we're facing here.

...But I don't eat or sleep, or I suppose I'm not about to be a drain on limited resources, if nothing else.

Every piece makes the puzzle, I suppose.

[Even if it's not super helpful.]

Good luck.

Something like that.

[The smallest and seemingly most insignificant thing can be significant in its own right.]

I won't be the one needing it, but thanks all the same.
