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 straightens himself, pulling the journal into his lap and staring down at it with bleary eyes.]
Maybe you can help me stay awake. [Even as he says that, he's about to succumb to another yawn.]

Okay... um. Tell me something about where you came from.

Well ... I used to live in this great big castle. Called The Castle That Never Was. It was huge, and there were only fourteen of us there. And there was never any sun... it was always night. But around the castle was an empty city that was always lit up with neon colors... and full of monsters, so I never really went there.
