[So basically, this video starts off staring at a wall. But if you think it's just any wall, you're WRONG.

It's a BLANK WALL.

And it continues to stream this same picture for a moment until something starts sliiiiding into the view. By the way, if you think it's Izaya, you're also wrong.

Instead, it's a full length mirror that, also eventually shown, is being shoved into place by this Orihara. Apparently satisfied with its new location, he grins and finally picks up the communication device. This makes the entire feed a little more obvious now.

Izaya is standing in his bathroom -- now between the mirror he just moved, and the mirror already on the wall. He finally speaks:]

Hey, so, I've can't stop thinking about those mirrors...has anyone else found some way to deter them or anything?

Comments

[last-liar.livejournal.com]

....Yeah, I think so.

[And what he understands is that he needs to keep his camera in a drawer when he's not using it.]

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

I thought you didn't meet her? So then how do you know?

[alwaysaboom.livejournal.com]

She's talked through the mirror before. She just bounces around and makes cookies.

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

[Wat gdi--er, he nods.] Good. That's basically the difference then. You can't just look into your mirror and see what your neighbor is doing, or...I don't think you can?

[last-liar.livejournal.com]

I can't, at least.

It's a little weird to talk to them, when they're on their side. Because I know they can see me, but I can't see them, even though we're talking.

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

Waaait, you've had some kind of extended contact with a mirror while they were on their side before?

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

Everyone likes cookies, Iva.

[last-liar.livejournal.com]

Yeah. He wrote on the surface with some kind of ink. I could see that, but nothing else.

[alwaysaboom.livejournal.com]

I don't. [Just being contrary here]

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

Huh...that's kind of unfair. Why didn't you tell me about something cool like that before?

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

[Wat.]

Then what do you like?

[alwaysaboom.livejournal.com]

I like to watch my figure. [And coffee...]

[last-liar.livejournal.com]

...Am I supposed to report who I talk to to you?

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

...Touche. I suppose I walked right into that.

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

No of course not, you silly conclusion-jumping teenager~

[alwaysaboom.livejournal.com]

And hit your head on the door.

[last-liar.livejournal.com]

Just when it's interesting and has to do with the mirrors.

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

Yes. Yes that exactly. That's not to say I don't care about the average human or their interactions, but I can find those sorts of things out on my own very easily.

[last-liar.livejournal.com]

I'll keep that in mind.

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

Any other questions?

[last-liar.livejournal.com]

Um...

No.

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

Alright, well if there's anything else, let me know!

I have to go see if the closet will give me anything I can shove in front of the mirror on the bedroom wall~!

[last-liar.livejournal.com]

You know they can still hear you, right?

[has-signed-on.livejournal.com]

... I hadn't even thought of ways to overcome that. Do you think mass amounts of duct tape would work?

That would look tacky though...

[last-liar.livejournal.com]

I don't think so... I mean, covering them up other ways doesn't work, so I don't think it's something that can be sealed off.
