one [accidental voice]

[imatreenow]

[At first, all that can be heard is indistinguishable muttering. It seems strangely distant. The words become increasingly clear as their source becomes apparently nearer to the journal. They sound as though they are being squeezed through tightly clenched teeth. It is a voice that may be chillingly familiar to some residents...]

It's not fair. It

[Goodness, that voice sounds very distraught-then again, she was very worried herself when she first arrived not so long ago... She can also understand wanting to find one particular person most of all.]

The person you're looking for is probably still at home...

[He hears the unfamiliar voice coming from the mysterious journal he had thrown against the tree, and he cuts off speaking. It doesn't take him too long to realize that the journal, then, must allow some means of communication, similar to a holo-projector.]

...Who is this speaking? [Just gonna ignore your well-meaning concern. His voice is cold and hard, but strangely empty.]

Ah, my name is Sayo. I arrived here recently, like you have.

[imatreenow]

[So this person has nothing to do with why he has been brought "here", wherever "here" is. Nothing to do with why he has been denied his heroic death for Martel's sake. They are inconsequential.]

[There is a pause. You can hear his respiration slowly calming as he thinks. What are the chances that this unseen person can be of any use?]

What is this place? [It sounds more like a demand than a question.]

[whats_a_sneeze]

It's called... 'Lu-ce-ti', I believe. It's closed off so no one can get out, and most of the people here were taken from their worlds somehow, I suppose.

[voice]

[imatreenow]

[More helpful than expected.]

Taken by what? Who is behind this? [Because whoever it is will suffer.]

I... don't know that much, sorry. All I know is that they don't seem to have any reason to kidnap us... That they hadn't even intended to, or have no control over it at all...

[imatreenow]

Completely useless. [So much for that.]

[whats_a_sneeze]

Well, you won't get very good answers with an attitude like that.

[imatreenow]

Do you honestly think I care? You obviously have no good information regardless.

[whats_a_sneeze]

[Keywords! >:^U]

Well, neither do you, so you should probably be a little more respectful of the people who try and help you. You won't be able to find a way back home to the person you care about when you're being so rude!

[How perfectly suitable.]

I don't respect disgusting, arrogant humans.

2/2 html fail

[imatreenow]

[That last part...good job reminding him.]

Shut up. Just shut up. [brb ranting mostly to self, because he quite honestly couldn't care less about you or the fact that you are a living being.] What does it matter? They won, so what does it matter? Martel can never come back, so what does it matter?

[whats_a_sneeze]

[You'd think she'd close the book over this nutty guy, but...]

What happened to Martel?

[imatreenow]

[Maybe it's like watching a trainwreck?]

What happened to Martel? She was killed by humans who couldn't accept those different from them. She was killed again by more selfish, hypocritical humans who couldn't understand that the world needed to be changed. [Yes, "killed" twice. No, he's not going to bother explaining.]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[A...ha...]

It's true, humans can be very hypocritical, and very selfish.

...Though, you need someone to help you learn what's going on, don't you? If you're ever in need of anything, I'll try to help out. Even if it's just a meal, or directions. Otherwise, we're all trapped here together, whether we like it or not.
