[The scene appears to be inside a cave, with patches of bioluminescent growth. A campfire crackles in the center of the frame.]
"11364. Get away from me."
"I’m just curious. How do you always manage to stay so clean... 27212?"
"Unlike you, you smiling, unwashed lump of coal. Get away from me. 6925 is already asleep. You should be on watch, not sitting here joking around."
"...Fine."
"Are you still messing with that machine, 18290?"
"Ah! Yes... yes!"
[The video flickers, the camera wobbles briefly before stabilizing again.]
"...I, I just think it's really interesting. Look, I can see you guys through it..."
"It's a camera. A very strange-looking camera, 18290."
"I-I'm sorry! whimpering I didn't know... I don't understand these things..."
"...Forget it, it's fine,it’s my bad... 11364! Hands off the tail!"
[6925 rubs their eyes and sits up. The feed cuts out.]
