Chapter One :: Video

[The feed clicks on with the view of a rather red-nosed Lavi, though his forehead also seems to be the same shade, he has a bloody tissue held under his nose.]Can't say that I'm very thrilled with being sent here in the first place but the light posts don't seem to be very welcoming at all to me. Hard and painful things to be walking into when you'

[That voice... The Black Order? Could it be?

Link quickly snatches up his communicator, turns it on upside down, and then spins it right-side-up in a slow, dizzying circle.

It is.]

Bookman Junior?

[looseleafbook]

[Why yes it is~

Have a wide grin~]

Relieved to see they haven't lost you yet, Two-spot~

[video]

[churchninja]

[Automatically, but in a tone that implies he doesn't really care right now:] That is not my name. [A pause.] And, unfortunately, I will not be rid of so easily. How long have you been here?

[video]

[looseleafbook]

I'm considering renaming you Choir-boy with hair like that, what happened to it?

[Thoughtful sort of hum.] Hour, hour and a half?

[video]

[churchninja]

I must ask that you refrain. It was lost in a rather disastrous event sometime last week.

[With that out of the way, he gets down to business.]

Have you had the opportunity to speak with anyone else? Walker and Kanda are here, as well as a handful of others from various, unfamiliar locations.

[looseleafbook]

That evil twin thing that Fuuma was talking about, I'm guessing? [Chuckles.] Your twin not like it long, Two-spot?

Oh lots of people. I'm feeling like a right popular guy. Even the little miss that dragged us here in the first place.

[video]

[churchninja]

It was Kanda's twin.

[But... letting the rest of that jab slide for now. There's an obvious crease between his brows, however.]

Her name is Libitina. The twins, as with nearly everything else, were her doing. Since my arrival, there has been no explanation for her games. I take it she has already given you your room?

[video]

[looseleafbook]

Details, details~

Yeah, that's what I've heard. Though can't say I'm looking forward to be putting through things. Rather just find a way out. [A pause.] There's a place around here that goes up to 905?

[video]

[churchninja]

Yes, that would be the only inhabitable building. Has someone already offered to come fetch you or shall I?

[video]

[looseleafbook]

Allen's already on his way, yeah? [Grins~] Going to explore a bit before we head to everyone else.

[video]

[churchninja]

[Allen, of course.]

I would suggest watching your step-everything is in poor condition and it will not take much for a building to collapse. However, I do believe the abandoned library is somewhat functional, as Sasuke mentioned finding newspapers there. If you have the time, perhaps you should go take a look.

[looseleafbook]

[He's actually surprised you're not on your way with him, or chasing after the Exorcist.]

If we get hurt, or more in my case, we'll give a yell out for assistance. But I think we'll be alright, yeah? [Perk] Library? I'll check it out then in a bit or tomorrow.

[They've already been through that mess. Rhode complicates matters.]

Keep your communicator nearby at all times. Notify me immediately in the event you require aid. I'm certain there are others who will help as well.

[He pauses, not sure how to say this over an open network. After debating, he abruptly cuts the feed to send Lavi a hasty text.]

You know there are Noah here, correct?

[looseleafbook]

[It'll take him a few moments to figure out how to use the text function without someone there to show him. But he also figures it out quicker than others seem to.]

Rhode and Tyki were the first to get a hold of this feed. Well, aside from some kid that knows me.

[churchninja]

[Good job, Bookman Junior. Link's proud.]

Was it a small boy?

[filtered text]

[looseleafbook]

[Give him a little bit and he'll have this thing down pat.]

Yeah, it was.
