✘ | 012 | VIDEO



[The video clicks on, showing an uncertain eye and not much else, because the video is held much too close. The camera flips and jostles a few times, before it's held back enough to see a young boy. He looks much younger than he really is, rake thin in a very unhealthy way, but still more than skin and bones. He's pale, and he's scared. When he speaks, it's all in German; which, usefully, is the only language he knows.]

H-hallo? [Tosh has already assured him that Herr Doktor is not around and there won't be any tests of any kind today but...he isn't entirely convinced and is more than a little nervous to direct more attention to himself. So he's hesitant, but tentatively giving into some curiosity?] Is this one of the SS buildings? [He pans the camera around the room quickly; partially visible, as he tries to gesture with his other hand, is the silver helmet he holds.] I have never been here before.

[And he heads to a couch, looking uncomfortable, but...maybe a little pleased. This is more comfort than he's known in - well, ever. He manages a little smile, but it doesn't quite reach his eyes, and falters at the edges.] It's very nice. Thank you for letting me stay here.

[His attention drops back to the helmet, now in his lap, and he holds it up for the camera after a moment - the look on his face says he probably shouldn't play with it and he's sorry, but he's drawn to it nonetheless.] Does this belong to someone?


(OOC: And tags will come from [personal profile] einzweidrei because I'm a bad person. :c Blanket content warning, again, for possibly in depth discussion of the Holocaust.]

[Barbara nods.] Tim came to see me, he - [Her eyes go wide. Why didn't she think of this before?] There's a dining hall. I could show you where it is.

[After a moment] You sure you'll be okay? [She knows she said it was safe, but - look, they're tiny.]

We'll be alright. What about you?

[Her instinctive response is 'I can take care of myself' - and then she huffs out a little laugh.] I'll be fine. [A wry, proud smile.] I can run faster than anyone.
stripedpajamas: (Your parents must be so proud.)

Let's hope you don't have to get too much practice in while you're here.
