✘ | 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 einzweidrei because I'm a bad person. :c Blanket content warning, again, for possibly in depth discussion of the Holocaust.]

[He wouldn't poison a kid probably, he's not that much of an asshole. :|]

What is the SS? [There are a few things that could mean and he doesn't know you well enough to really pinpoint where you're from timeline wise yet.]

[einzweidrei]

[He doesn't understand how anyone could not know what the SS is, and his brow furrows in confusion.]

The Schutzstaffel. You don't know?

[secretasshole]

I do know the Schutzstaffel from historical records. I was merely curious which definition of SS you were using. It can stand for other things, after all.

[einzweidrei]

[Historical records, what.]

Like what?

[secretasshole]

It isn't important. If there is any way I can be of help to you during your stay here, please do let me know.

[einzweidrei]

What did you mean, historical records?

[secretasshole]

I am several decades ahead of you in the timeline.

[einzweidrei]

[...What. He just. Stares at David for that because how do make sense of that.]

[secretasshole]

It is apparently a very common phenomena on this ship.

[einzweidrei]

How?

[secretasshole]

I don't know.
