Statement of C.C Dearest, taken right from subject. Audio recording by Martin K Blackwood, archival assisstant on.. February 12th 2024, statement begins. ‐-------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC- "...? oh, i can start now?" "Mhm, take your time, no pressure." CC- "O-okay.. thing is, I don't know where to start... guess I'll just continue on from my previous statement.." "Alright." CC- "So... it started a few days after I gave it.. at first it almost felt like I just didn't know what to do, but...." [CC sighs.] CC- "I don't know how to explain it.." "Was it like a fog?" CC- "y-Yeah... kindof." "Did it have a sort of salty smell to it? Like you were near the sea?" CC- ".... barely, yeah.." "Oh, that's not good... what else happened?" [Silence for a few moments.] CC- "... ... for some reason, I felt like I was being followed.. I turned, but didn't see anyone though. Turning back.. for a moment I saw someone. I didn't get a good look at him though.." "What do you remember at best... did he have a sea captain's outfit on?" CC- "I think...? All I could see was his hat though.." "...Peter Lucas... you were almost taken by the Lonely.." [CC blinks a few times, confused.] CC- "Who's- ..... oh.. .... ...oh god.." "It could be possible that he caused Jennie's disappearance... but we can't rule it out that other fears might have got her first.." [Silence. She seems worried, not only about Jennie though..] "What's on your mind..? You don't have to answer if you don't want to.." CC- "Something seems... different. ... ... I don't know what..." [The tape scratches out something that sounds like words.. yet it's impossible to make the words out..] [CC flinches, looking at the tape.] CC- "Wha-?!" "For god's sake Jon, don't scare her soul out! We don't need three ghosts." [She doesn't say anything, still confused.] [The tape scratches again, the words are clearer, not by much] <"What else changed?"> CC- "..... uh." <"...take your time."> CC- "Not much else, actually... unless you count my dad still berating me because he doesn't like Boyd- but then again, that's an everyday thing now..." <"...that's unfair to you two.."> [CC nods, going silent.] <"...Considering that... no. That would ruin the statement.."> [The tape went quiet] "...Is there.. anything else you want to say?" [CC mumbles something barely audible.] "Hm? Can you.. please say that again?" [CC looks up.] CC- "I.... nevermind.." "Okay.." [Silence.] "...Is that all you want to share?" [She nods.] "Statement ends." <"Martin, NO-"> +click!+ +click+ [The tape is letting out a bunch of curses, half of which are.. severely strong.] [CC seems to have fallen out of her chair.] "Language! Are you okay, Miss?" CC- "y-yeah... ow.." "...what else was there...?" [CC gets back up, righting the chair and muttering something about heels being a curse of their own.] "Never understood the appeal of high heels.. but who am I to judge?" [She shrugs, then looks at the recorder.] CC- "Dunno... but, uh. a-Are you alright?" "Me? I'm OK, Jon however..." [He nods to the recorder.] CC- "..." "Coughed his soul out again..." CC- ".... again? And.. um. What did you mean by 3 ghosts?" "Jon, Garce and... Gerry. You've probably met him?" [CC looks a bit shocked.] "Gerry is quite nice, he's a chill goth ghost." [CC shakes her head.] CC- "n-Not him..." "You mean Garce?" [She nods.] "He's... probably around here somewhere.." [CC looks up, rubbing her eyes.] CC- "...?!" Martin picks up another tape recorder and puts it next to the first one. "Garce, you know she wants to talk with you." [The second recorder clicks on, but there's only static...] <"...Come on, you'll get used to this in a bit.."> [CC looks worried as the static only increases.] <"Don’t make me drag you into this one."> [] `...? ... ....` [] <"So, C.C what else have you experienced in terms of the paranormal or the fears?"> CC- "Well... that would be too long of a list to explain here.." <"then, just explain it in simple terms."> CC- "Lets just say that my dad has a habit of... sending stuff after Boyd in order to persuade him to not date me.." <"...Petty.. all this over a guy you chose to date? That is too much.."> CC- "You don't know the half of it..." [] `....` [] <"... is that all you wish to share?"> CC- "Yeah.. that's all." <"...statement ends.."> [A purpleish smog comes out of the recorder and well.. that's about it, he's a wisp.] <"you can shut it off now.."> + click! +
