[ It's been two weeks since she's woken up in the Complex, the effects of her cryostasis wearing off, finally. The effects of her death and resurging, that's another story. Her throat and lungs aren't feeling so raw but the latter still feels rough. At least she no longer feels like she's going to choke with each breath she takes. And the hacking up blood has stopped. On the other hand, the nightmares of the exact moment don't come as often but they're there.

They're always there. ]

I was always under the impression that when you died, you stayed dead. There were no second chances. Maybe I haven't come to terms with it. I've come close to death's door too often but never like that.

Has anyone ever...?

[ If anyone here has died and returned, wouldn't asking bring back unpleasant memories? Elena's aware of that, unfortunately there's only been one other person whom she's been able to talk to who can relate.

This isn't something she can talk to Nate about because of how sensitive a topic it is between them still, and that's why she's locked the post from him. She needs to know if there are others.

Plus there's just one more thing... ]

My wedding ring also seems to be missing... It's plain silver and has an engraving on the inside. It's been missing since I woke up in the Complex.

If it's shown up anywhere then please, I'd appreciate a heads up.


( ooc; the ring is gone forever, and although the post is locked from older!nate, it's still free game for anyone who knows him to bring up the post/topic/any conversation to him. c: )

video

So annoying. [Says a low, lazy voice as the video starts. At first the feed is a little shaky, the focus is moving from dark hair to big shiny hoop earring and down to cheek, revealing some of the painted lips, before shooting up to show forehead and sunglasses. Guess someone isn't used to holding a camera.]

So um. Yo. [The woman in the video starts, sounding rather hesitant and awkward. She keeps a weird break before speaking again, this time trying to force the certainty to her voice:]

Got a few questions and these weird-ass looking tentacle faces are being too fucking pissy and annoying for negotiations. So umh, yeah. I'm looking for someone. Or someones, I guess. [The camera moves further away, now properly showing woman's face. She's lying on top of a big, bright colored scooter and her whole appearance is somewhat tense and fidgeting, almost as if she wished to be anywhere else but on live camera. It's dark in the background which rises the question why does she even need sunglasses?]

I'm looking for a guy. A really good looking guy so you'd definitely remember seeing him around. The other one I'm looking for is a kid. The most surliest girl you'll ever see, you know, like mouth full of lemons. But they look alike, the kid and guy. So. [She shrugs. Clearly she thinks she's given enough information.]

Other than that, anyone know where I can find this robot-something called Ted. Or Todd. Other Ingress Deputy shits will do. I got stuff to negotiate with them.

[In the last part her voice sounds much more confident than before, there's even touch of cheekiness to her expression.

There's another silent break before she ends the video.]
