[ the screen clicks on to an image that seems sideways, so obviously the device is on the floor. in the image a few feet away, a figure in crimson lying still and trembling. at last, though, the figure moves, pushing itself up on shaking arms and turning to peer in confusion at the surroundings. is this person a man or a woman? --it's hard to tell, at first, from the beautiful face and long hair.. but the shape of the shoulders are telling, and the crimson fabric is fitted well enough around the chest to tell now that it is indeed a man. as he picks himself up, the red resolves itself to the the robes of a cardinal. --there is blood at the corner of his mouth, which he wipes away with a careless hand as he spots the little device. picking it up, he turns it this way and that, finally spotting the little tag. ]

Usi questo?

[ a slightly perplexed look, then, a slender finger tapping the screen.. and it changes from video to voice-to-text.. thankfully translated, since exxie doesn't speak italian! ]

Well, little device, what shall I use you for, then, I wonder? It isn't like a kidnapper to leave me gifts.. especially if the kidnapper is so base as to leave me in a place such as this.

Hmm..
