[The video cuts in to show Ken frowning down into the camera, breathing a little too hard and too fast, and biting his lip. Clearly he is looking for something in one of the Dreamberry's menus, jabbing at the keys beneath the screen; just as clearly he triggered the video feed in the process. The image shakes: he's grasping the Dreamberry as firmly as he can, but it doesn't seem to stop his hands from trembling. Confusion crosses his face for a moment or two as he tries to work out why the screen's changed, then he mutters a frustrated curse, but the audio doesn't seem to pick it up.
[The picture cartwheels madly as he tosses the Dreamberry onto the bank he's sitting on. When it lands and the tumbling stops, the screen shows nothing but a slice of sky, thin skeins of clouds drifting overhead. Sixty seconds later, the feed times out.]
[OOC: Ken's been dead for a week after Muraki murdered him, and has lost his voice as a penalty. Replies will be in the form of text messages, or possibly charades.]

[Ken? You're a liar.]

Date: 2010-11-11 07:26 am (UTC)[Or... well, it's something persistently wolf-shaped, anyway, but for some reason Ken isn't inclined to judge her a threat in the way he normally would if a wolf started taking an interest in what he was doing while he was alone, unarmed and feeling decidedly off his game. He just, for whatever reason, really doesn't think she is one - perhaps it's the fact that she's got a Dreamberry in her mouth? - and Ken's nothing if he's not inclined to respond in part.
[So he just sits there and watches as she walks toward him, then shifts forward, holding out one hand - reasonably confident that it won't be bitten off, but unsure if a wolf smart enough to use a Dreamberry would want to be patted on the head.
[Man, this is way trickier than it looks.]

Date: 2010-11-11 07:38 am (UTC)[It didn't occur to Ken to try and filter that video. Well, why should it? A few seconds of him trying to work the Dreamberry and then, presumably, a picture of clouds: what's to hide? It probably should have done, though, because here's his Favorite Person In The Entire World come to say hello to him. Ken gives Diva a nasty look, and wishes he could just tell her to go away, but for obvious reasons that's not an option.]

Date: 2010-11-11 08:25 am (UTC)[Her tail wags a little faster behind her, using her paw to push her Dreamberry closer to show that it was on his post he had made. She tilts her head, whining a little. Was he new here? He didn't appear hurt, but he didn't seem too confused as he did during his post.]

Date: 2010-11-11 09:07 am (UTC)[Ken smiles, or attempts to, and nods, hoping he at least looks vaguely reassuring. Then he gestures to his throat again, mouthing I can't speak - he doesn't know if she can tell what he's trying to say, but figures that with the gestures it's probably kind of obvious.]
