compnetwork | 001 ♪ Video Post to the Public Network

[When the feed comes on, not only is it unusual because it's being broadcast on the public network, viewable by practically everyone in the city, but it's also tilted down at someone who is laying on the floor, wincing in pain, clearly coming from the watch on his wrist.

For those of you who have met the other Joshua, this one would look familiar... However there were two distinct differences. One, most noticeably, there's a large scar going down the left (his right) side of his face, from above his brow down to his chin, over his eye; that eye is also very clearly blind. The other difference was the black metal collar around his neck, bearing some numbers on it. And it was... smoking?? Were those black scorch marks on his skin underneath the collar.]

Well, I've decided that perhaps now is a good a time as any to give out a public service announcement to anyone from Alpha Omega... do not try to tamper with your collars. We may be universes away and yet I'm certain that Val is still laughing at us.

[He gives a bitter smile which quickly fades into an embarrassed scowl as he turns his gaze away from the camera with his next admittance.]

... Also, I can't move.

[Major electrocution kind of took a toll on him... On top of locked up muscles he thinks he might have sprained his ankle, maybe his other wrist too. Everything was simultaneously numb and throbbing painfully...]

J-Joshua! Where are you?

[Y U GOTTA BE SO DUMB??]

When the feed turns on, the little demon girl has both of her red eyes fixed directly on your collar. The golden, slit-pupiled eye in the middle of her forehead is mostly looking at your face, but its gaze occasionally slips downwards as well.

"Hello! If Desco understands your message, that collar has electricity inside it?"

She doesn't bother to let you answer before her wide and pleading red eyes look up from the collar and fix themselves on your face as she unleashes her Ultimate Little Sister Puppy Eyes technique.

"Can...can Desco please eat it? Pleeeeeeeease?"

[ hello. the feed flicks on to... your double. he sits cross legged on the floor, his camera obviously sitting on a table in his room, steam rising from a small cup of tea in his hand. all he does is watch the screen somewhat expectantly. waiting.

(surprise!) ]

What an idiot.

[Staaaaaaaaaaare.]

J... Joshua?!

[You did not look like that the last time he saw you.]

[WHOA JOSHUA WHAT THE HELL--]

Idiot, why the hell did you do that!?
