momquest: a quest for moms

[farfromgrace]

[ It's another day in Tokyo-D, and the relentless cycle of content generation for the masses goes on; how long have you been filming this drama, exactly? And it's not that it's a bad show, per se, but the fact that it's really dedicated to showing the gritty realities of combat and using practical effects for it is... kind of a lot.

Also it can't decide if it wants to be a show about frenemies or about enemies-to-lovers-to-enemies. Cowards.

And besides, it's not home, is it?

It occurs to you on break at the really honestly lackluster buffet table set up for the actors and any surviving extras that... there's really not that much security on this show, all things considered, unless there's something you're not seeing... ]

[ it's odd. possibly, for you, a little too close to home?

but the funny thing is that it feels like... almost a tangible presence, like you could turn your head and say something back and be heard. ]

[ that would be ridiculous-- to speak into the open air and expect to be heard by what is likely nothing.

But her gut feelings are rarely wrong, and she shifts uneasily...

And just in case, takes out her phone to buy a pack of ammo. '-' ]

[ for some reason, you hear: ]

Why would it be a ghost?

[ and then: ]

...You can hear me?

[ There's a kind of emotional background radiation, too: the kind of awe that is a mix of wonder and alarm. ]
