( jay spent a lot of time in the past few years scouring over video tapes, repeating them over and over and over again to try and get a glimpse of — something. a clue to whatever happened to his friends, to whatever it was that was chasing them, to whatever It was Itself. a clue to find out how to stop it, or just because of how surreal it all was, to recover lost memories.
the static is all too familiar. it's something that haunts the back of his mind, replays itself over and over, a haunting memory that won't leave him alone, as if it's somehow infected him despite being through tapes (or maybe it's just because of how often he's come into contact with It, and with those who have also been stalked by It.) it's familiar enough that this whole thing makes him start,
it makes him uncomfortable and scared and horrified and angry. wonderland isn't exactly a safe haven, but he thought he would have some time here at least before the memories started returning and the Thing made itself known here---
but tim is already here. he's been here longer, and of course jay should have seen this coming. It would never miss an opportunity to carry on haunting them.
for a long while, he simply watches. has no idea what to say, but eventually, with a shaky voice and even shakier hands— )
Are you okay?
( of course not, but he needs to get a feel of the situation, of what's going on—— maybe tim knows. hopefully tim knows. because jay is as lost as he was back home, and the phantom pain of being shot courses through him at this sick reminder, even worlds away. )
