[AUDIO] @M.HUGHES; OBSERVATIONS AS OF JANUARY 25 [OPEN]
[He sounds so tired. His words are clipped, professional. Jovial, fun-times Hughes is apparently gone for the time being. He can't keep that act up right now.]
I'd like some input here...a distraction that I can put to use.
Tell me about the lantern colors anyone has seen besides red or green. I want to know what's...different. I don't need names or specifics, but it would be helpful to know what to expect. For us ALL to know what to expect.
I don't know what good it will do. I don't know what good anything we've tried will do.
[He suddenly clears his throat and he coughs to cover it. For a second he thought he had heard Envy's voice coming out of him again. He knew he should have done text -- but this was part of another test. He needed to see if the voice, the eyes, if that was just him or...someone else.]
So talk to me. Tell me if I sound different. Help me solve this puzzle.
[He snorts. It would almost be a laugh if it wasn't filled with such bitterness.]
He told me I died because I was a smart man. I'm starting to wonder if that was just nothing more than a lie.
[He pauses and it's almost like the message is done, but he speaks again.]
Green. Envy. It's not lost on me, but that's only relevant to me, so the green light can't be just doing that. Please, I hope some of you still have enough of your wits about you to reply to this with some information.
[He almost begs, pleads for someone to respond. He can't be left alone with Envy's voice and Envy's eyes telling him he's a monster. He can't listen to Gracia's cutting remarks either. He needs other voices and he hopes that a few of you out there can give him that.]
(ooc: Note that Maes's Lantern is GREEN. So he doesn't actually look or sound different to anyone but himself. Of course, he THINKS he sounds like his killer)
