❧ 005 [video] (forward dated to july 18th)
[ Tired of shadow people going stabbitty on your loved ones and ruining your family dinners? Then listen up, because here's a psa from your friendly neighborhood blue-toned mutant and a cute boy who's never had parents (don't tell him that): Kurt Wagner and Matthew Lynch!
They appear close together in front of the camera, leaning forward earnestly, and both of them start talking at once. ]
Everyone--
Hey, guys--
[ They didn't practice this in advance, it was more important to get the message out as soon as possible. Matthew looks at Kurt, nods, then back to the camera. ]
We know how to stop them. All those clone-- people. You can get rid of them if you make, like, a sacrifice.
Exactly, ja. There seems to be multiple ways of doing this, whether you decide to forgive someone who has wronged you in the past, disclose something personal, admit to feelings for someone, allow yourself acceptance and closure of people you've loved and-or lost, or facing the one thing that you fear most. Then, and only then will you be able to defeat the shadow being. [Pause.] Or reason with them, at the very least.
Right, yeah. All of that. Or, they said you can give up a memory about one of those things and that'll do the trick, too.
[ Who said what exactly? Matthew doesn't think to explain where this information came from. ]
So, that's all you have to do, and then everything can go back to normal. [ He looks to Kurt again for confirmation. ] I think.
[There's a brisk nod from the teleporter, a brief glance from his peripheral at Matthew then back toward the screen, apprehension clear on his face.] I'm sure I speak for the both of us when I say this, but ... be careful.
[Kurt exchanges a final look with the dream boy before ending the feed.]
(ooc: replies will mostly be handled like a three person conversation! if you prefer having a conversation with only one of the boys, simply state in your response so we know. .^.)

[Once Matthew mentions the word 'demon,' Kurt dips his head and winces his eyes shut, knowing full well that the word has nothing to do with him. He's unable to feel any different about it, though, especially knowing that he has a shadow.]
If you have to, [he adds, bringing his attention back to the screen.] They're not all ... evil.
no subject
What do you mean by them not being 'evil', though? Usually, what I think of runs more towards "hostile" than evil. The latter's too abstract of a term to apply to most things.
it's okay!! also, i'm sorry for my slow. orz
People can be hostile without having to resort to murder, though. Some of the shadows seem like they cannot be reasoned with.
no subject
[But he can tell a few are high in their verbal hostilities.]
I'll be careful, though. You do the same.
no subject
Thank you. [For the reassurance and the fact that Kazuhira is looking out for him.] I've been doing my best to avoid conflict, but ...
[How long can they do that?]
no subject
If you gotta go into something, use stealth and non-lethal weaponry where you can. Don't showboat. [He doesn't know how much Kurt's had to be in the field, but he knows what he prefers out of soldiers.]
It's better in general to not aggravate shadows.
no subject
I've never showboated. [Liar.] When it came to fighting, anyway. What sort of non-lethal weaponry do you mean?
[He has managed two battles now without dying and he isn't planning for a third to worry himself (and others) with.] Especially when they could be stronger than their equals.
