...Hello?

[An up-close of curious green eyes stare into the video, still figuring out how this device works]

Not really sure how this thing works at all but...

[A sigh and he pulls back slightly so he's in full view now, hesitance on his expression before it shifts to one more serious]

If anyone's even out there... I want to know what's going on. If it's someone's idea of a joke, it's not very funny..

...It's not as if we can do anything about those who have died...

[Yeah he's being a little careless with his words at the moment, his calm, almost distant expression unchanging. Not aware of how this may affect her as he doesn't know what had happened to her back home]

The man responsible for that... nobody else will have to die now because of him....

[Saying that... he remembers the man's face before he... or rather Jack killed him and almost looks a bit sick before he shakes his head]

You wouldn't be saying that if you could face the people that he killed, brat.

[Which, oddly, he is right now.]

That's not true. It would be the same.

Why would it change?

[...and then there's his bluntness here once again, eyes opening but they're narrowed and while looking angry, almost look distant; unlike himself. Hence why he hadn't reacted to the 'brat' part of her words]

[She'll grab the Dreamberry at that and face it back towards her so that he can see the angry expression on her face as she speaks.]

Then you would willingly speak to someone that died because of you and your selfishness without a single feeling of remorse?! Then say it to me, because I was killed that day because of that man, and due to your ridiculous ceremony!

[That was something Oz hadn't prepared for at all. Noticeably his skin pales and his eyes widened upon hearing her words. Yes, by the time he'd gone after Isla Yura then... yes... so many people had died but he hadn't thought...

the sheer reality of it seems to hit him about now. The ceremony was supposed to have gone better and indeed people did die; this was no longer about Isla Yura as much as it was about the deaths he'd caused by holding the ceremony there. He finds he can't stare at the Dreamberry anymore and a conflicted, depressive look has finally crossed his features.]

...I... I didn't...

The... ceremony.. I... it wasn't supposed to turn out like that!!

None of it was...

...And yet, it did.

[She doesn't rub it in any further, despite the fact that she wants to. Instead she just picks up the Dreamberry and says:]

Enough of this. Elliot will get in touch with you soon, I'm sure. Speak to him and leave me out of it from now on.

[And with that, she turns it off.]
