Is this--hello? Is this working?

[The frame moves to show Penny. Her hair is whipping around her face, propelled by the relentless winds of the second circle. She's holding the device in one chained hand; although it's not evident from the video feed, her manacles are about the only thing anchoring her to the ground.

Penny?

[Yes, that is a question, because... Penny?]

How deep are you?

audio ][ horrible_penny October 27 2010, 04:33:26 UTC

Yeah, I--Claire? Thank god someone can hear this...

I don't know. There aren't... you know, signs. Just wind. Lots of wind. And screaming.

[But Claire can probably hear both the wind and the screaming for herself. Penny sounds frantic.]

Why'm I here? They keep talking about sins--the demons, I mean--and I don't think I sin. Not much, at least...

audio ][ adamantined October 27 2010, 04:37:56 UTC

I can -

[Hear, though that's broken off with a wince.]

It's October. Everything's gone to hell. Do you remember how you got down there?

audio ][ horrible_penny October 27 2010, 04:42:47 UTC

But literally? Seriously?

[There's a long pause on her end. It's filled with screaming, but not Penny's.]

...I was walking to work. To the Welcome Center. I felt like I was being followed, then I--I don't know what happened. I woke up for a while and there was this monster whipping anyone who spoke or cried, so I... so I was quiet, and now I'm here.

I don't know how literal you can be about something like that in a place this, but it's not really important right now.

[Claire, who is walking, stops at that.]

I can help. If I can figure out how to get down there I can... I can help.

I will take you.

[Wait...]

Rosella?

audio ][ flaming sword, baby primrosella October 27 2010, 04:55:33 UTC

Yes. If you will free her, I will deliver you there.

audio ][ that is one flashlight i could use also that icon is so pretty adamantined October 27 2010, 04:59:29 UTC

And you can do that because...?

[Cue the implied 'whose side are you on?']

audio ][ i have been wanting to use that picture of her for ages primrosella October 27 2010, 05:02:57 UTC

Because her imprisonment is an injustice and I would see it undone.

audio ][ /orders angel curses more often adamantined October 27 2010, 05:05:58 UTC

So you're -

[Actually, right now that's good enough.]

I just need you to give me directions or something. You don't have to take me all the way down.

audio ][ yessss primrosella October 27 2010, 05:10:44 UTC

No. I will take you myself; this offense is my concern.

audio ][ adamantined October 27 2010, 05:15:10 UTC

What, do you have, like, magical angel armor or something?

audio ][ primrosella October 27 2010, 05:19:16 UTC

I have wings for speed and a sword to break the chains. And a calling to right injustice.

audio ][ adamantined October 27 2010, 05:20:54 UTC

[Claire hesitates. She hadn't thought of the chains.]

Right, well, I've got a calling to make delicious pastries, but I'm not using it as a bargaining chip. Let me go in front of you.

audio ][ primrosella October 27 2010, 05:26:29 UTC

You are concerned for me?
