One quiet video with a small cameo by Philip LaFresque [12/??? artefacts collected]
[ This looks like it's going to be a very boring video feed. An empty (though hardly unfurnished, mind!) room with an open window, its only exciting feature being the set of drapes only somebody more familiar with Philip's room would recognise as new.
Sure, there's a life-sized mannequin sitting on the bed while holding a potted plant in its hands, but--
Wait. Back up.
Life-sized mannequin. Female. Brown skirt, beige blouse. Dark brown hair in a French braid (It used to be much lighter and greying, but for its owner that simply wouldn't do. There is never anything wrong with looking your best). It looks old for your average display dummy, but early 60s are hard to mimic in plastic.
And then the strange still life takes a turn for the really strange when the mannequin gets up and carefully places the potted plant on a desk. Then it turns around and stiffly walks towards the closet, opening it with jagged movements.
It drags another, bigger plant out into the open and slowly begins moving it to the other side of the room.
As it does this the feed scrambles a little and is briefly interrupted by what looks like a man sitting at a kitchen table with his head in his hands. ]
--still up there.
[ Then the semi-static ceases and both video and audio return to the silence of the room where the mannequin woman is now sitting on a chair, checking her watch impatiently. ]
[[OOC: So just to clarify, Philip is sitting in the kitchen and will probably respond to audio or video with his personal communicator, though you're welcome to "talk" to the mannequin in his room as well or go for a kitchen action tag.]]
