video; un: GOSUCKADUCK
Name: Klaus Hargreeves
Date: today-ish
Format: video

[It is pretty obvious that whoever is using the watch is not used to cell-phone style devices. Used to being recorded, yes, of course, but not like...selfies or recording himself. So at first the video swings wildly and dizzily all over the place before settling on a very close up recording of a single green eye. Then the camera pans out, and Klaus lifts a hand with "Hello" clearly tattooed on the palm to wave with a little wiggle of his fingers.
He's grinning, but he looks exhausted. Are the smudges around his eyes from sleep deprivation or smudged eyeliner? The world will never know.]
Hello, citizens! Or whatever we're calling ourselves this fine day. Victorian-era folks? Old-timey wizards? Whatever, whatever, you know what I mean.
[A pause, and he rubs at one eye, still smiling.]
So. Important question. If a guy were in say...some serious physical and-or emotional pain, where would he go to get a little relief in this place?
[A pause, and he lifts his free hand to cover his face, shaking his head, murmuring under his breath.]
No no no...that's not right. Fuck, there's probably not even an NA chapter in this place.
[A few seconds, he gives his head another shake, and the smile comes back up as if it never left.]
Or, well, you know! Other distractions. Right. Non-medicinal distractions. What do you do for fun around here?

oh my god, i am so sorry this is late, i moved and it was harder than i thought it would be...
Taverns, you say? You, uh...haven't gone looking around for any of those, have you? You know, for posterity.
[Frankly, he's pretty surprised that he even has a mental alarm warning him of impending bad decisions. Must be all that time hanging out with Ben, because the alarm sure sounds like judgy Ben-voice.
Klaus ignores it. As always.]
