[for once, Zhas is not wearing a full face of skull makeup.

so for all intents and purposes, this looks like a video feed of a pretty normal guy propping up his communicator on something so that he doesn't have to hold it. as he steps back, his eyes go a little glowy in the dim light of the Red Fish's cargo bay--but that's not the focus, here.

his expression stays blank, but he brings his hands up to sign, in very clear ASL:] 'Who understands sign language?'

[he shakes his head at the first two suggestions, and then again at the others--that isn't quite right.]

It was cold, and a thing was there. It saw me. But that is... [he drifts off after the gesture to tap at the crown of his head with a finger. like it's in there, he just can't find it again.

but then he moves again, to complete the thought.] ...It feels like a dream, but this place does not... [he has to spell out the next word: c-o-i-n-c-i-d-e-n-c-e.]

[The Vision nods.]

Memory is fragile. If it becomes clear, please share. More knowledge can help everyone.

[theboogieman]

I will.

[his shoulders sink a little as he says it--not from disappointment, but from relief, letting go of a tension he didn't realize he was holding there. validation isn't something he's used to, not even during his previous time here.]

If you meet someone who says something similar, let me know?

[unbearablynaive]

I will.

[He recognizes that ease of tension, and he's glad for it. Perhaps that was important to share, somehow.]

[theboogieman]

[very much so. there's not much else he wanted to ask, but he at least signs a simple "thank you" in response.]

[unbearablynaive]

You're welcome.

[Neat, now he has another signing buddy.]
