[The video feed is on, but all the camera can see is blackness. A great deal of very loud breathing can be heard. The darkness breaks slightly, and whatever was blocking the camera pulls back to reveal this:

The device is nosed a few more times as it skitters across whatever surface it's on. The face backs up, revealing a fairly large deer stag standing in an apartment bedroom. The device is set up with a shot of the door. The deer bats at the doorknob a few times with his antlers, looking imploring back at the camera each time. He lets out a slightly mournful bellow, before moving back to the device. There are a few more moments of snuffling and deer-nose close ups before the transmission ends.]

[ooc: Stephen has been hit with the Safari curse and will now be a deer stag until Sunday. Which means that he he trapped in his room until someone comes and rescues him. Doorknobs are not meant for hooves. He's managed to work out how to operate the video function on his device (he's been stuck in here for a long time), so audio, video, and action are all welcome. He'll be wandering around the edge of town looking for delicious patches of grass if your character wants to bump into him. :-D]

[She follows behind him, then hurries around to the front door to open it wider.]

You want outside? Fresh air? Grass?

[He makes more appreciative noises and follows her out the open door and into the hallway. He normally takes the stairs, but they look like they might be more difficult with four legs, so he presses the button for the elevator with his nose and waits, glancing over his shoulder to see if Jill is following.]

[She's right there with him, looking him over closely cause this is probably a once in a lifetime deal.]

Can I touch the antlers?

[Uh, kinda oddly phrased. But sure. He nudges her with them.]

[How else do you ask something like that? Jill's awkward enough as it is on a normal day. She reaches up though and feels of the antlers with a small, amused grin playing over her lips before the elevator dings and the doors open and she pulls her hand away.]

Cool.

[Stephen looks pretty pleased with himself before clomping into the elevator.]

[Jill puts a hand out to hold the door open and try to assess the situation. She's a small, waif-ish little thing so she squeezes into the corner of the elevator by the buttons and presses the one for the ground floor.]

Tight fit. Well you make a pretty deer. Or... buck. Is it buck? [She doesn't expect an answer back, more or less talking to herself.]

[Stephen gives her the eye. He's also trying really hard not to whack her with his antlers.]

I'm gonna go with buck. [She nods to herself, the elevator dings and opens on the first floor. She lets him filter out first so she doesn't get in the way and then hurries to the front of the apartment to open the doors wide for him.]

See? A lot better.

[She gets more appreciative nudgings. Once he's out the door he notices a small patch of grass in a nearby garden. He speeds up a little and trots over, then starts to chow down.]
