1st panic [[Voice]]

[rewindpendulum]

[[The Forge is turned on, accompanied by a high-pitched shriek and a collision. A nervous female voice begins to issue from the device.]]

H-hello?

[[Pause. Then-]]A-Allen? Lenalee? Kanda? Anyone? Um, this is Miranda. I...think I'm lost. That is, I'm not sure where I am at the moment. Er, I just woke up in this room and I definitely don't

Hey there. [He sounds soothing enough to pass, or so he hopes. The woman does sound like she's having a panic attack. He's thinking of ways to calm her down.]

It's okay, shhh. Calm down, and let's think things through, okay? Listen to me, deep breaths. Breathe in... breathe out... [And he keeps it up until she calmed.]

[Voice]

[rewindpendulum]

[blinks in fright at the new voice, but manages to calm somewhat at the comforting tone]

[breaths in]

[breathes out]

A-ah...thank you, whoever you are-

[pause and in a tiny tiny voice]

A-are y-you the one that kidnapped me?

[Voice]

[socialinksarego]

[He's smiling a bit into the Forge, but she won't be able to see.]

Feeling better? I'm Souji Seta. I'm not the one who kidnapped you, but I think we weren't kidnapped at all.

If you look out the window, you can see the city, and the door might be open. I know mine was. Nobody seems to be surprised, though.

[Voice]

[rewindpendulum]

Not kidnapped...but then- how did we get here?

[some quick steps and the creak of a window being opened]

Oooh! It's so nice out-wait, I've never seen this place before! Are we in a...different dimension?!

[voice]

[marked_songbird]

Are you all right? [she sounds very concerned and keeps her voice as soothing and gentle as possible]

I don't know about being kidnapped, but I just awoke here as well. Are you in one of the rooms?

Re: [voice]

[rewindpendulum]

[jerks at this voice and listens with wide eyes]

U-um, then you're a prisoner here to? I'm not sure exactly where I am...[tears]

[pauses]

I'm sorry! I should inquire about your health...as it is my duty...I'm sorry, are you- are you hurt anywhere?

[voice then video/action]

[marked_songbird]

I don't think so. [fiddles with the Forge and turns the video function on. smiles comfortingly.]

It's sweet of you to worry though. [walking to the door and opens it. peers out]

I don't think we're being held prisoner. The door opened just fine, see? Maybe try yours and looking out? Maybe we're on the same floor.

[[voice then action/video]]

[rewindpendulum]

Oh! I can see you-

[fumbles with the Forge. Drops it]

Wah! I'm sorry!

[Picks it up tentatively.]

The...door just opens like that?

[a little video of a young woman cautiously pushing open the door]

I-I'll start walking this way! [bumps into a wall, but manages to go right]

[Voice]

[5_5david]

Wait. This is a kidnapping!?

[Voice]

[rewindpendulum]

....I-isn't it?!

[Voice]

[5_5david]

...You've got to be fucking kidd--

You're the one yelling kidnap. You tell me.

[Voice]

[rewindpendulum]

Eek! I'm s-sorry! It's just that I don't know where I am and I panic easily and ohno I'm not sure why I'm here and-

[Some muffled sniffling can now be heard.]

[i_love_squats]

Hey, hey, calm down. It's going to be okay, all right? Deep breaths, count to ten, let it out. No reason to cry about it; you're in good hands, okay?

[rewindpendulum]

O-oh!

[you can hear the sounds of slow breaths inhaling and exhaling]

Thank you, you're very kind- Have you also been kidnapped?!

Voice

[earned_my_eyes]

Tch. Calm down and stop sniveling.

Voice

[rewindpendulum]

S-s-sorry!

[he sounds an awful lot like Kanda so she's panicking]

U-um, are you- did you wake up just now too?
