Cinq (Accidental Video/backdated to around 3AM)

*At first, all that greets the camera is a man sleeping in a dark room, looking almost eerily peaceful to anyone who knows him. Then the tossing starts and his expression darkens in fear and anger. He growls in his sleep, then abruptly wakes, sitting up and glaring around.

He's shirtless, though still wearing gloves past his elbows, and his chest has recent burn scars mottling the pale skin. He doesn't seem to be aware of the phone recording, and from the way he's tensed and breathing heavily, he's still recovering from whatever woke him up. Finally, he slams his fist angrily on the bedside table and the phone clicks off.*

Boring entry.

Well excuse me for being boring in my sleep.

Seriously, usually stuff like this doesn't get accidentally recorded.

Then I suppose I'll have to take a look at this thing's primitive programming in the morning.

Do it for all of our sakes.

But if you find this so dull, why waste your so clearly valuable time informing me of such?

Sounds like you had a quite a nightmare.

Also, you wear your gloves while even sleeping?

That qualifies as none of your business, I'd think.

And I happen to be more comfortable with the cloth against my arms. Is that a problem?

Sorry. It's my nature to be concerned for others. I understand if you don't want to talk about it.

No, I just found that to be very interesting. O didn't mean to offend you.

I'm not asking for others' concern. I'm more than capable of taking care of myself, regardless of any unpleasant dreams.

*Which is totally why he has permanent dark circles under his eyes.*

Pardon me for pointing this out but judging those circles under you eyes, it doesn't look like you have them under control.

I know you're still awake. Will you be alright?

Those are a remnant from my days of mental instability. I get enough sleep to function normally.

I'm well enough. I simply need to let the bad mood fade so I can get back to sleep.

[Switching now that he can see properly and only looks half mussed up. Yeah falling asleep at your desk fully dressed. Again.]

Say that again with the video on and I'll believe you.

*He could fake it through text, but on video he looks tired and tense. And he's not looking straight at the camera, either.*

I'll be fine, Nigredo.

It's not that valuable, I just want to tell you you posted in case it was really important to you. You're boring, though.

Then next time I'll be certain this device records something more interesting. Perhaps me venting my frustration at being woken up on a little nuisance?

Yeah, something like that!

Well, I suppose I'll have to go find the little irritant keeping me from getting back to sleep, in that case.

You don't mean me.

You're the one who felt the need to bother me merely to inform me that my waking up was lacking in entertainment value.

You could turn your phone off while you sleep. That'd be smart.

I know you will be, but you obviously aren't right now. Do you want anything?

Not everything that's interesting happens during the day.
