First Animus Data Fragment [Radio]

[shirley_templar]

[When the radio clicks on, the first thing listeners might notice is the whistling of the wind, as though the person on the other end is very high up somewhere. Really, Desmond just needed to process everything, after waking up in the city. He hadn't even though to get his hand looked at, so shocked was he by what was happening.]

So uhh...I'm supposed to be dead. Someone wanna shed a little light on why I'm not? I mean...I got the whole "Welcome to the back of a Giant Turtle" spiel from the guys in that Welcome Center place, but...they wouldn't answer why I'm not a corpse right now.

[He coughs.]

I mean...I don't wanna sound ungrateful or anything, I'm glad I'm alive or whatever, but...there was a good reason why I was supposed to be dead.

Usually doesn't.

You feeling sane? Not wanting to eat or kill anyone?

[shirley_templar]

Not any more than usual.

[A pause, and then he laughs.]

I'm kidding. No, I haven't felt any murderous or cannibalistic urges since I woke up.

[justno]

You feel anything weird, you call me on this dumb console. I'll help you take care of it.

[Whether via healing or murder.]

[shirley_templar]

I'll keep that in mind, thanks. I might just have to take you up on that, with all of the weird shit I've been through.

[justno]

Don't hesitate.
