video | un: Da Silva

( The feed opens to a woman sitting in a bright cottage kitchen, with a cup of something warm and a soft smile. )

Hello. Some of you may know me already, but to those who don't β€” I'm Rose Da Silva. Sharon's mom.

( Her smile warms, and she gently sets her mug down so she can turn her full focus on the video she's making. )

I've been here for... a while. Half a year now. I have to admit, this place isn't like where I come from at all, and I'm still... trying to adjust.

I know a lot of you are from worlds that may be similar to this one. You've probably been able to settle in a lot easier than me. But... I wanted to offer something. Because I know there are a lot of young people here, people... on their own.

( Her smile wavers, brow knitting slightly. A lot of people without parents, without help. And maybe they've been doing quite well on their own; Rose has certainly witnessed almost disconcerting levels of independence from the Sleeper youth. Often, it suggests that... many of them might not have had a strong parental presence back home, either. Several of them have directly told her as much, or she's seen... memories, shared by accident. )

I can't make things, but I can show you how to buy and use them, if you like. Like... well, if anyone might need some more clothes and could use a hand, I'd be very happy to show you the shops I've discovered around here.

( She's.... offering to help take you shopping, yes. This month, there's a growing compulsion to teach, and maybe Rose is....... filled with the need to do some Mom Teaching Things for others! )

There are some really nice shops in certain parts of the city. I'm sure we could find something to fit your personal style.

( Her smile brightens again; she seems excited. Back home, before she was venturing into the depths of Silent Hill to rescue her daughter, she was one fancy suburban mom. Shopping was her thing. And maybe it seems a little silly, considering so many young people around here are... warriors, fighters, have some sort of strong power.... do they really need something as simple as a shopping trip while she's Mom For A Day?

....The offer is there. She wants it to be there, just in case someone does need it. Because maybe she doesn't have a lot of Trench-appropriate skills to put out here, in comparison to others. But being a mother... that's what she wanted to be for her whole life. She's not explicitly framing it that way, but that's what she feels the most comfortable offering, guidance that might fall under the "maternal" or "guardian" category of teaching. )


I'd be happy to treat you to lunch or dinner too, or show you around other places in the city, if you like. The weather's so nice lately.

[Oh great. It's this guy again.]

Really? Colour me fucking surprised your not willing to break some bones-

[Except he's kind of seen Maul be a little bit cooler at points. And he gets that this guy wasn't exactly built from that from their conversations.]

Depends on who said it really. I know the sliding scale of what she thought was best for me growing up.

[He's trying to play it cool but he'd probably be just as pissed off. But he has a complicated relationship with his mom that he doesn't exactly keep secret.]

I was hoping Sharon might want to but she seems to be forgiving much like her mother. Since this involves them more than me, I am leaving it up to them what to do with you. Lucky for you. I would have encouraged her to light you on fire otherwise and I'm just the person that could teach her how to do it.

[Maul's highly protective of his students, so coupled with the fact that he already is fond of Sharon and Rose both means that Johnny is in luck that Maul also lets people fight their own battles.]

You're dodging the question. What if you met someone who said the exact same thing about your mother as you said here? What was it exactly? 'Scratching you off the list of chicks I'd bang'? [There's something about the way Maul says the word dryly in his soft, cultured tone that manage to make them sound all the worse and more ridiculous at the same time.] If someone said that, what would you have done?
