14th Match // Video - August 21st

[Krieg is in a much better mood than he has been in for months. So when the video feed opens up, his masked face is right up against the 'Gear, just like old times, as he excitedly announces:]

Today's my birthday!

Guess my age and win a prize!

And no cheating if you already know!

[Says the man wearing an almost entirely face-obscuring mask. No one said this was going to be easy!]

Wow.

I wish I could do that.

[Newt. Newt no.]

Who would you kill?

[Newt yes]

[She thinks about it for a moment. Newt, yes apparently.]

I wish I could have killed Burke. He was evil and got everyone I knew killed by monsters. But he's dead already.

I'd use it to kill anyone who tried to hurt us, or stop us when we got back to earth. Probably people from the company. Like Burke was.

[Yo, that sounds perfectly and 100% reasonable to Krieg.]

He sounds like the Jackhole. Sucks you couldn't kill him yourself. But at least he's dead.

[~~Krieg, this is not how you talk to seven year old children, holy shit~~]

Yeah, either the aliens got him or the explosion did. He was terrible. All he cared about was using the aliens for the company.

I hate companies. They say they're nice and that they care about people. Then they let everyone die to try and get something they can't even control. Weapons are more important to them then people.

[Wow, damn, son, those're some uncomfortable parallels.]

He sounds exactly like the Jackhole.

Where are you from?

I'm from a colony called Hadley's Hope. It was on a moon called, Acheron.
