[Those who'd be inclined to notice Jimmy not being around might have noticed that he hadn't been seen anywhere since that Saturday, but with all the sickness going around, the assumption is probably that he's taken ill. He hasn't been in his apartment, he hasn't been in the hospital, and he hasn't been in any of the usual places he hangs out.

That's because he'd been sent home. And now, from the angry way he clicks on the video, he's back.]

Shit, we're really doin' this again?

[There's exhaustion in his voice, and something like defeat written on his face. What might have been anger is so dulled he obviously can't even conjure the ability to be enraged, like the first time he'd arrived here.]

How long's it been? Everyone still here?

[It's almost as though he's going through the questions without really caring or consciously asking them.]

Didn't think this place would still be around. Guess I was fuckin' wrong.

[Video]
[The room in view is dark and still... that is, until the darkness stirs, gaining form as it moves towards the camera. In his hand, he attempts to lift a chalice towards his mouth but it literally slides through his fingers to crash noisily on the ground. The vampire frowns and his eyes glow in irritation.

It takes him a few moments before he can look back up at the camera and make his reluctant words be heard.]

... this is not... [His mouth twitches and he changes the direction of his comment.] ... I'm willing to make an offer for a cure.
