[any and all conversations being held on the CATs suddenly cease all at once, and in the next instant, a little alarm begins to sound. none of the townspeople appear fazed by the strange happening, writing if off as yet another malfunction that has plagued the communications systems in town for the past week

[Even though the screen has gone blank, Fuu smiles at it.]

I'm glad. We'll keep an eye out... for something.

[wind_of_reason]

[Surprise! Who is this, now?]

I could wish that they were more careless more often! I'm not certain if it was private or not, but we are very likely being monitored.

[wind_of_reason]

Oh, the people who are keeping us here, I think! But I'm afraid that we don't know who they are or why we're trapped here yet.

[wind_of_reason]

In the fake-town of Luministi.
...I'm afraid that I can't be more exact than that, I'm sorry. Last time we found out the town was on a space ship! But no idea if it's the same this time. Ah- sorry if that sounds a bit crazy.

[wind_of_reason]

[*nod nod* --eh?]
What? Really? That's amazing! I thought that you were a new arrival to the town!
...Maybe someone thought that you could help us? But I'm not sure how it could have gotten there. I'm not sure how we even got here.

[She eyes the notepad with interest]

Sorry, perhaps some introductions? I'm Fuu Hououji. [And she smiles, clearly inviting the lady to follow suit.]

[wind_of_reason]

[Detective? Oh, the police! For sure she can help!]

Why, thank you, Miss Menzies! I'm from Tokyo. That is, Japan, Earth.

[wind_of_reason]

Hououji is-- [she pauses. Fuu was about to explain how to write the kanji for her name, but she would probably want it in romanized letters.]

Is H-o-u-o-u-j-i. That's my family name. Fuu is F-u-u.

As for Luministi, it will take a while to explain everything. Is that all right?
