007 || {Video / Action} || BACKDATED to the 3rd, late morning.
[It's not cold at all - even in spite of the rain - but after a bit of shivering, disoriented wandering Hope will find himself stranded on the path, and even more confused than when he initially came around after being the unfortunate victim of routine experimentation.
He plops to his knees in the dirt before slipping in the haze and landing squarely on his butt, not caring at all for the muck that would inevitably stain his shorts.]
Ugh...
[With a groan, he first lifts a hand to wipe away the silvery bangs dripping in his eyes, then wraps both arms around himself with a shiver. The camera's view might catch a flash of chalk-white on the back of a wrist, stark even against his fair skin, if one were looking hard enough.
The journal's been recording all of this, but the boy doesn't seem to notice, drawing his knees up and resting his forehead against them.]
(ooc: Lightning and I think Gem are going to go find him, but anyone else is welcome to poke him through the journal too. :D)

[He's not expecting the voice, yet there's no startled jerk of alarm. Hope lifts his head, blinking bleary sea-coloured eyes up at the unfamiliar woman. His clothes are definitely growing damp now, the bright colours of his favourite jacket darkening from the weight of the rain.]
Um... I guess so... [His voice is thick and slurred.]
no subject
[Gem bends down, her movements faintly robotic. But she is there to help those who are harmed. She offers a hand. If he takes it, he'll feel a jolt of energy, of warmth, of something that can help bolster him through this.]
