The Stagnant Earth(audio drama)
nathan t esser for Alec
Alec is the middle child out of him, Charlotte, and Kris. Despite the trauma faced by all three siblings as children, Alec probably bounced back the quickest, partially due to the help of Geraldine, and partially due to his natural disposition. He is cheerful and geeky, obsessing over the relatively high tech equipment in his radio-tower home until he became an expert. He sometimes has difficulties expressing how he is feeling, and is good at covering things up when he doesn't want to worry people, which can sometimes be troubling during his darker moments when he veers dangerously close to the edge of a place he can never come back from.
I am being serious. I know that the thought of her being alive seems like too much to hope for, too good a thing to be a thing that could happen to us, but she was my sister, I can’t just let her be… y’know, and honestly? I’m just so tired. Aren’t you?
Good morning folks, This is Alec Broadband, coming to you from the something-or-other broadcast station in...well, if I knew, I’d tell you…Today’s top stories include the world still spinning, confirmation that we’re all still losing it, oh, and no denizen sightings in over a month, so… that’s good, I guess?
Aaand now for the weather,
Still complete shit. And probably going to kill us all… fuck, I’m too pretty to get killed by rain, or maybe I’m the exact right amount of pretty… who knows. I guess it could be worse… I could be out there with it. I bet Charlotte’s freezing her ass off right now if she’s still... Well. Hey, Charlie, if you’re out there, do us all a favour and survive, please?
(Afraid) That was a long time ago. A long, long time ago. Me, Chris, and Charlotte were still kids then.
