01 ♛ video
[ the video feed starts, and lydia's not paying attention; in fact, she'd been using the darkened screen of her device in order to check the status of her lip gloss and mascara. the latter is slightly smudged underneath one eye, as if she's recently been crying, but it's the only sign of any distress as she quickly plasters a different expression on, mouth pouting slightly. ]
I would like to state, for the record, that this is ridiculous. Absolutely, completely - ridiculous.
I mean, they say that the first part of debunking a hallucination is to acknowledge its total lack of infallibility.
Or something.
Besides, the whole 'waking up in Wonderland' cliché? So tired.
[ she pauses, eyes narrowing, and stares a little more intently at the camera, as if silently daring someone to challenge her.
and then she sighs, quietly, the camera panning to the rows and rows of books behind her - several of the titles in different languages - before the feed cuts out. ]

Still didn't make it any less freaky.

[ she hisses, glancing around them as if someone could have overheard that. ]
You believed me, you know. You said you knew I wasn't crazy.
action;
[ okay no lydia don't look at her like that. ]
I do believe you. You wouldn't lie about something like this. I'm just trying to understand.
action;
Sorry. It's confusing enough living through it - which you did, I promise.
action;
[ she winces a little at that, because just hearing voices. of course. no big. ]
action;
- right?
