[Video] - evening

[He looks like he's just woken up; there are sleep lines on his face and his hair is messy. But who would go to sleep immediately after being kidnapped, right?]

Okay, so I can cross 'get kidnapped' off my bucket list. [That was a joke, of course; it was totally not on his bucket list.] Nice of them to give us phones and stuff? Feels kind of suspicious, but whatever.

What's up with this place? I tried to take a walk and was told, and I quote, 'go back inside'? I gotta tell you, that's not gonna cut it for me. I'm a night owl. [Among other things.]

Also, how's the uh, [How did he put this without outing himself.] the nightlife around here? [He was kind of worried it would be lacking considering his experience so far, but he'd been awake for less than three hours here, soooo.]

Also, uh. How did I get here?

[ Ronan is no social butterfly, but after getting his boyfriend nearly killed he'll feel responsible if he doesn't say something to the new guy. ]

You were kidnapped.

[ Which seems like the obvious answer considering the bucket list comment. ]

Do yourself a favor and listen to the warnings. Short explanation: Monsters turning people into ice statues after dark. They call them the Unseen. You can hoot as loud as you want indoors, night owl, until this shit gets dealt with.

No shit, Sherlock. I didn't go from sleeping in a tree [Under a tree?] to here without being kidnapped. I'm just really confused about how anyone found me.

[Monsters, on the other hand-]

Okay, that sounds pretty serious. How are, uh, people planning on dealing with this?

Why the fuck were you sleeping in a tree?

[ Important details first. ]

Listen closely. Step one in dealing with Monsters after dark: Don't fucking go outside.

It's a long story. Also, it wasn't my idea. I'm much more of a traditional 'bed' kind of guy.

Jeez, I got it, dad. [Which was funny because Kieran was probably older. Maybe. It was hard to tell right now. Being told not to go out after dark was also funny for other reasons that he so was not going to get into right now.] So I guess they can't be reasoned with or anything, then?

One of those things nearly killed my boyfriend.

[ The fact that Gansey could have been killed because of his stupidity isn't mentioned, but the guilt is strong still. ]

If you get caught out after dark you don't get the chance to find out.

Oh.

[So it was personal, then. Or it would have been personal for Kieran in a position like that, at least.]

So how do we stop these things? Really big guns or something?

No one knows how to stop them. Not yet.

[ Ronan leaned closer to the camera. ]

How are you with researching and taking notes?

[ He's still pissed they can't take any of the books out of the library. ]

[He exhaled noisily.] Well, that sucks.

Uh. I guess I'm pretty okay? I took a lot of notes for school, so.

[His point was he'd never failed a class so his notes must've been good.]

I'm going to send out an invite and get as many people as I can to come to the library a research party. I suck at taking notes so bring something to write on.

[ Ronan is gone before he gets a response. He's not much for long unmeaningful conversations. ]

I'm not really an authority on this place or anything. I've only been here a few days myself. But right now it isn't safe to go out at night. So really please stay indoors like security advises.

[ She gives an apologetic smile. ]

I've been at the library with some others trying to research what's going on. Hopefully we will figure out how to stop these things and save the people who were turned into ice statues.

Okay. That really puts a kink in my like, everything, but I'll do what I can to stay inside.

[That...wasn't exactly a promise to stay indoors, but he couldn't exactly make a promise when he was itching to fling himself outside.]

Oh, oh, I like books. I could try to help. Are there actually books about what's happening?

Well if you don't want to end up mauled or turned into an ice statue, so definitely try hard.

[ Because she noted that lack of promise. ]

Sorta, the information is kinda scattered. So we have to piece things together.

I guess those are both terrible things that I don't want to happen.

[He just didn't like being told what to do, basically, and when you usually slept all day... the night was his day.]

Like a puzzle. I could help with that. Probably.

You guess?

[ Okay she just looks amused at that. Cause seriously? ]

Oh yeah, that's a good description for it.

Okay, those are definitely terrible things I don't want to happen. I'm too young to be mauled.

[And definitely too young to be turned into an ice statue.]

Well I'm glad to hear that. It would be a shame if you got injured or turned into a statue on your first day in this freaky place.

[ She really doesn't want to see anyone else get hurt. ]

Yeah, it would be. I don't wanna see anyone else get turned into statues, either.

[Which meant he was definitely going to help however he could.]

Then we're on the same page! [ She's just going to hope for the best, while they try to figure things out. ]

So why don't you come by the library when there's light out and help us figure out some of these books?

[He tried his hardest not to make a face over the 'when there's light out' part because ew, sunlight. He mostly succeeded.]

Okay. I'll do that. Hopefully, I'll be able to be helpful.

Hey the more eyes we have on this the better, so I'm sure you'll be helpful.
