...what? Hello? Zero? Zero!

He promised...I'm sure he'll come. But...

[There's a long silence, some thumping, and finally a little shriek and a louder fwump. She wasn't expecting that to actually work.] These are very strange kidnappers. Why didn't they lock it?

[Coming back into her room after a day of doing... stuff, Kallen opens her door, but she stops once she hears the little shriek. Pausing, she turns to Yosuke with a slightly nervous expression on her face.]

Did you hear that?

[advisortype]

[...Stuff, yes. Yosuke just kind of, uh, follows her inside, and looks confused. Very confused. And ALERT.]

Nnnooo, but I wasn't paying attention. What did you hear?

[harmonistic]

[It might help if you looked down.]

Kallen?

[emit]

[She looks. And freak out in 3, 2, .... 1.]

Nunnally?! [Kallen immediately shoves whatever she was holding at Yosuke before hurrying over to her friend.]

What were you doing in my closet?

[leadthedance]

[Hearing the name 'Zero' was one thing, but hearing a certain familiar voice calling for it was a whole different story. And it causes a certain Gino to stop whatever he was doing. Nunnally? She couldn't have been back already, could she..?]

It can't be... Princess?!

[harmonistic]

Sir Weinberg? [Okay, now either she's hearing things or he's turned invisible. He sounds so close...] Where are you?

[leadthedance]

[In a way, Gino was dreading the results after his outburst, given what happened with the -last- Nunnally... but hearing his name just causes a wave of relief... before paranoia. Because as far as he knows, she's still blind. And blind princess in crazy castle = bad.]

I'm in another room, I'm talking to you through a journal. Are you safe, Princess? I'm going to try to find you.

[harmonistic]

A journal? But how? [And brb crawling back in to rummage around for it. But in the meantime:]

I'm all right. I think I'm in one of the rooms.

[allthelinks]

Hey... Are you all right?

[harmonistic]

Ah, I'm fine! I'm sorry you heard that.

[allthelinks]

It's fine, you don't have to apologize for anything. This place can be pretty disorienting at first. Do you need any help?

[harmonistic]

Ummmm...have you seen a pink wheelchair?

[madetothwart]

[Oh my, there seemed to be rather a large influx of new residents, and he simply can't ignore a poor confused girl like that.]

Miss? Please don't be alarmed, can you see a book nearby?
