The Quiet-est Explosion!
Fennec's Stream
Date: 20 July 2084 By: Fennec
“Hi hi, KuroFennec Deeeeeeeeeeeeesu! How is everybody???” The usual stream of DNI idiocy flows briefly over Fennec's AR glasses – all for show of course, given that this is a Matrix avatar. “Wowsers! That's, like, way less verbal hate than yesterday! I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, lol!” The foxgirl sticks her ludicrously-long tongue out, laughing out loud after pronouncing it wrong, of course. “Alright, alright! So we're like, streaming some VR interview stuff later – I got a number from another someone who -claims- to be an AI, but I'll believe that when they derezz me! But first, you know what time it is! That's right! It's -conspiracy time-. Wooooooo~~”
Fingers wiggling in the air, the weeaboo foxgirl glances off to the side – then flicks a finger, whipping some footage into view on the screen. “Check it out! There was a homicide in Snohomish, and this ganger died. I know, sad, who would ever do such a thing??” A turn to the side, and Fennec winks for the second (virtual) camera there as the feed gets rolling.
Camera footage captures the scene as a pair of confused looking Knight Errant cops interviewe equally-confused gangers, all occasionally glancing at a blast crater and a chunk taken out of a building. No action to be seen, but there is a sheet covering what one would assume is a body.
“More importantly though, look at this hole! Like, you can see -all the way up in there-!!” A brief AR scroll across her glasses, and her cheeks go red, steam floating from her ears. “Oi, oi, shut up! Don't clip that, chat! Focus on the building, the building! Geez!”
A few seconds of huffing and puffing later, the foxgirl gets back on topic. “But look at this! It looks like someone blew up the side of the building with a bomb or something! Now, I -definitely- don't know anything about explosives,” another wink, “But an explosion like that should make the news, right? Even if it's just something local to the area. And it did! The news states that there was an explosion and one ork was found killed. But -here's the thing-. You see, your favorite fox, Fennec, she checked in on things! Interviewed around, snooped a little in some personal data that a neighbor -definitely- shared willingly, and y'know what? Nobody heard about the explosion! They just saw that there was an explosion sized hole in the building!” Her hands clap together. “It's weird, right? And the ork, Knight Errant said he was shot in one of their internal reports! Um, according to an inside source?” Another wink to Camera # 2.
“Now, I'm a nooooooosy fox, so I dug around as much as I could, and the only thing I heard was that some Irish guy was looking around the area complaining about losing his dog. There's no way that's related though, right? I mean, that's ridiculous, how could a lost dog be related to an explosion?” Chat's already alight with inane theories and more than a couple messages back and forth fighting over whether this is really Kurofennec or Shirafennec talking. And that's when the smiling foxgirl leans back, laughing smugly, and declares, “I have seen the truth, dear viewers! Wa ha ha! You see, -I- remember reading about a dog going missing from a Horizon site devoted to breeding cuter hellhounds! Clearly, this is the same dog, and Horizon has developed Hellhounds that breathe explosions!”
The chat's rolling over laughing, the foxgirl is protesting and getting puffed up, and the 'news' segment is left behind in favor of messing around on the internet for a few hours.
