[So this entry is tagged 'party progress', but when the video comes on it's very obviously not.

Everyone know that strange "guy" with the modulated voice always wearing the suit? Well, say hello to Vandal. She's not wearing the suit today. No helmet, no courier text. Turns out she's just your typical female human. But she's... not looking so good.]

Someone I-

Please. I don't feel right... I ca...

[Behind her, appears to be her little home, partially painted normally, but the paint job trails off into clusters of complex glyphs and symbols. The center looks like two pillars, spiraling up to two points, twisted like a helix.

Vandal is shaking, face coated in a fine layer of sweat.]

I'm turning into one of those things, I need to stop it I need to-

[Her hand is lifted. Sure does look like a normal hand, but she holds it out as though it were some grotesque limb.]

It's starting already! Please god- it won't go away this time! Someone please.

I need to cut it off before it spreads!

[Someone is obviously hallucinating.]

[vandalization]

[She holds up her perfectly normal arm as though it's some kind of proof.]

[Wow. That was loud enough that it drowned out the static in her mind. And startles her into freezing for a second...

[and it takes a moment to him to respond, but finally he manages to compose himself]

'Salright. If there's anyone infected, we'll get them to a medic. First Aid's not that bad of one, and if the Ratchet's worth his name he's not shabby, either.

And if they can't help, then we'll start cutting off limbs. [beat] But only after we go through them, first. Unless a human one came through that I didn't see.

[vandalization]

Okay.


Alright.

[She stares off, abruptly, at something that isn't there at all.]

Just. Promise me if I become something else please please please kill me.
