001 // Video/Action for castle peeps
[The video feed flickers--and it's actually purposeful--onto a view of a thin, if not dreadfully unhealthy-looking man poised at one of the castle windows. He's been standing there, supposedly gazing into that fog for quite some time now. In reality, he's been trying to compose himself enough to find his way out.
Nothing about the way he holds himself reads as relaxed. Despite looking like a man who hasn't slept properly in a few days, his entire body is rigid and his eyes are wide, either in anticipation or fear--or both. The information and maps given to him by the maid are being crushed carelessly in one paint-stained hand while the fingers of his free hand drum impatiently against the window pane.
After a moment, the man finally opens his mouth to speak, but he immediately falters. Instead, his hand clenches, his shoulders begin to shake, and then he starts to laugh. It's a hysterical sort of laugh with no humor behind it, but it's definitely not the usually or the expected reaction and it's clear that this is a fragile man because tears eventually begin to roll down his face. Between chuckles and sobs, he manages to gasp out and continue to repeat:]
This is a mistake. A mistake...
{OOC| Just as a note, he's not crazy or violent--he's just going through some emotional things, so it really is safe to approach.:[}

You have no idea how much better that makes things. [Apparently not, because he's more hysterical than before.]
Re: video
Well it might not. It's all down to a point of view I guess. If you came from somewhere better then yes, this is going to be a pain. But it's nothing that can't be fixed.

[What is that exactly a "no" to? Well--it covers all of it, really. He hasn't exactly come from somewhere better, and something was happening that he was trying to fix.]
It's explosions either way. Why not trade in an entire city for a few people's heads? Clearly it's nothing that can't be fixed.

...she'll keep some distance and speak out loud from her seat inside the sitting room. ]
From what I've been hearing, i'm afraid it was fully intentional.
[action]
He jumps at the sound of a voice, which is just enough to break him out of his hysterics. He takes a moment to make a poor attempt at composing himself yet again, but he doesn't turn around.]
I haven't done anything that can make any sort of god consider me. For anything.
[action]
[ she's strangely calm about all of this. ]

[Pause.]
Hey man...are you gonna be okay?
[We unhealthy artists gotta stick together, you know?]
[Video]
No..I mean, I'm fine. It's fine...I need to get back to New York. [Make up your mind, Isaac.]
no subject
[Worrying at his bottom lip a bit.]
You can't...really...
Not yet, you know? None of us can...
no subject
No--You don't understand. Something is going to happen. Something that's going to result in this. [He holds up a full-paged ink sketch of what looks like a city in charred ruins, unrecognizable as any specific place, but he's made it clear that it's his home.] I need to stop it.
no subject
[It looks pretty graphic anyway, not to mention dark, not that Xavier's really one to talk, especially not lately...]
Fuck-- is that Asgard? Are you using like...one of Freyr's powers or something?
video;
O-oi, chin up now! I'm--I'm afraid it's not a mistake, but if there's something or... someone you've left at home, I can promise it's like you haven't even left.
video;
Oh god oh man oh god oh man oh god.]
What do you mean? Do you mean no one will notice I left, or time has been put on pause? [He can deal with time being on pause.]
video;
Ah-- Time on pause, that's it. Spoke to someone from my past and you'd think they'd have mentioned being here. I'd say that nearly proves it. It's as good as we'll have it for now, anyway.
