[VIDEO]
You know, after that whole super spooky cave business, I think some R-and-R is in order. I saw someone talking about a party earlier, and I think that's just what everybody needs to shake off this funk. I know you guys are kind of prudes sometimes, so I won't suggest going out to Caldera to party, but I hear that Refuge has some pretty good food and drinks out there. Come on, let's forget about what other people saw for a few days and live it up! Take some advice from your big sis Excellen here. I'm always right about these kinds of things.
[ She gives the camera a wink before cutting the feed. ]
[ACTION]
[ Excellen over the band and Excellen in person? Two entirely different people right now. Where she was vivacious and energetic on the feed, she's significantly more subdued, almost chillingly so. She seems locked in her own mind as she goes through the motions of training, moving on muscle memory.
The things she saw in that cave... she wished she hadn't seen. The accident. Having to relive the accident from Kyosuke's point of view, and hearing voices that she did not quite recall, left her mind wandering into deep, dark places she did not want it to go. How did she survive that accident? It took nearly a year before she was back to anything remotely like herself--but how had she managed even that?
"She won't feel it anyway. She's already dead."
Those words echoed in her mind, drowning out her rifle rounds. Excellen didn't want to think about it, and yet she couldn't help herself, she couldn't stop. Putting down her rifle, she hardly seemed to notice how riddled with holes the dummies--and the surrounding grounds--were. ]

Er, strike that. If I was paid, I would. Maybe.
