[It's dark. Whoever's broadcasting is outside in the middle of the night, and the camera slowly adjusts to the little amount of light filtering in from the stars and the barrier overhead.

When the broadcaster speaks, her voice is almost too hoarse to be recognizable, but it's Aly. She speaks quietly, but firmly.]

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
With what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire-- [And at that word, an angry gout of crimson flame flares up from her hands for a moment before disappearing.]
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate-- [The fire flares up again.]
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And will suffice.

[As she reaches to turn off the feed, something that looks a lot like blood can be seen smeared around her mouth.]

[Video] ... If there's a one-on-one setting for these things, assume Nita's trying for that.

[unfavorableinstigation]

Hell of a time back home, huh?

[Nita sounds tired, and that's not just because she couldn't sleep.

She doesn't ask if Aly is alright.]

... You need medical, or do you normally have that covered?

[...Well that isn't good. She's not horribly injured, probably, or she'd be in a hospital instead of posting to the network. That's a plus. But Aly is clearly also Not Alright, and at a guess this has something to do with what she's told him about before. Devin doesn't bother with video right now, but voice will be slightly harder to ignore than a text.]

Where are you?

[well that's--alarming. On many levels.]

Aly. What has happened?
