[Video] UN: Wei Wuxian

[singlelogbridge]

[Without any introduction at all, a video suddenly pops up on the network with the view focused on what appears to be a VHS tape sitting on the ground. In the background, what can only be described as creepy flute noises can be heard. After several more seconds of the (familiar to some) flute, the song cuts off and Wei Wuxian comes into frame.

He is sitting cross legged several feet away from the VHS tape and he drops his flute to one side.]

This—[He points at the tape with his free hand—] is very angry.

What is it?

Really?

perma private

[singlelogbridge]

What? [He has the distinct impression she's about to say something rude]

[construing]

〈 now, what could give him that impression? 〉

So, did you not see Steve handling the VHS tape? Or did you see, and then you forgot? I’m trying to figure out what part of your brain exactly to be worried about.

How do you tell it’s angry?

Is it also full of children? [ he looks a bit concerned there, head cocked to the side.

he’s gotten that no one is trapped in the videos that come through on the network but the physical tapes? can’t be too sure. ]

[singlelogbridge]

[Wei Wuxian looks abruptly concerned before he understands what Mal means.]

No weird ghost children voices. Just...[He gestures with his hand as if that explains the energy coming off of it. It doesn't pass the vibe check, okay?]

There's something wrong with it. Also the...[He hesitates to call them ghosts. He doesn't know if they're ghosts anymore. There were ghosts in that school but they didn't seem to be in charge.] Whatever's in that school didn't want me to take this.

[So obviously, he Had To.]

A food container?

[singlelogbridge]

[He squints at it before replying.]

it's very thin. Too thin I think. And there were others like it. And I feel like food wouldn't be this angry, it would just rot

[cruelyethuman]

I'll defer to your expertise on angry subsistence and await the answer to your question with you.

It's a VHS tape. Play it. At this point, we need more info, angry or not.

[singlelogbridge]

[Bruh]

What's a VHS tape?

[ruinously]

[ stick it in homie ]

Plays movies, moving pictures. There's probably something pretty important on it.

[dr_unconscious]

Where did you find that?

[singlelogbridge]

At the school in the AV club room. Does it mean anything to you?

[dr_unconscious]

I'm not sure now.
I found a few sources of pretty ominous energy around town, including the school. But the biggest one was somewhere in the residential district.
If you're getting some negative readings off of that tape, maybe it's related to what I found in the school.

（ look, narutoverse is wild and he absolutely knows what a vhs is, but more pressingly — ）

In what circumstances was it found?

[singlelogbridge]

I was following the trail of resentful energy. Traced it to the AV club room where the trail was the strongest. The room or something in it didn't want me to take it.

What's A VCR?

[Wei Wuxian would like to know what part of his "what is it" communicated to people that they could just throw these words at him???]

[drawsblood]

How can an object be angry? Is there some power inside of it?

[ Also: ]

I have no idea what it is.

[singlelogbridge]

[Finally, someone asking questions he can answer! He likes you already.]

When I took it, there was a force trying to stop me. It felt angry and it definitely didn't want me to have it. I call that force resentful energy but not many here are familiar with it.

[drawsblood]

A force like a god?

[ He can really only understand this by trying to relate it to his own world. ]

[chrysology]

No idea what that thing is but I wouldn't be surprised if it was somehow connected to the orb. To whatever is going on here. But I'm not the most up to date with technology and all, one of the others might know. Like Newt or something.

[Ed is from the 1910s he has no clue about VHS either. Sorry Wei Ying. He wants to help but isn't really sure on what that is exactly.]

[singlelogbridge]

Apparently, it's called a VHS. Another device for recording moving images. And it must be connected. It didn't feel like ghosts that were trying to keep me from taking it. It felt like something else.

video, un: redgrave

[shishkabob]

That's a VHS. You shove it into a video player and play it. They're not supposed to be angry, though.

[singlelogbridge]

I assumed as much! The anger part I mean. I have been informed that this is another method for recording images. [Why are there so many, why do they need more than one?]

I suspect the anger has something to do with the orb.
