[The feed clatters on to an odd, lengthy silence.]

[Eventually, the camera autofocuses on what seems to be a quivering pile of cloth caught in the wind. It shifts slowly and deliberately, however, releasing a faint hiss -- surprise, it's alive!]

-- huh, 's cold-- ugh.[Another shift before the cloth is tossed aside, revealing that it'

[The.. laughter is what made her worried the most. This guy didn't sound okay at all.]

Do you need assistance..?

[torchicked]

[there's a long moment -- nope, no response yet]

[voice]

[wavecresting]

[She just waited a few minutes longer.]

.. It will be safer to get out of the streets, and I could give directions to the more populated places so you won't get hurt.

[FEEDBACK NOISE WATCH YOUR EARDRUMS]

--mph. I'm supposed to be using this?

Ha-- [no, he's not going to start again, don't worry]

... Fine. Tell me where the hell I am.

[he totally ignores the rest because lol you can't threaten dead people]

[voice]

[wavecresting]

[WINCE AWAY FROM EAR FOR A MINUTE until he starts speaking.]

You're on another planet called Fortuna, and the city is called Discedo. Um.. basically, you've been kidnapped and brought here. At least that's what I'd call it.

[Oh it's totally not a threat, and you can die here Laf :>]

[voice]

[torchicked]

Fortuna-- Fortune, huh? [you can hear muffled sniggers that he's trying to suppress; he's still out of breath from the last fit]

[and then his voice changes to a snap] Do you think I'm a fool? You can't kidnap the dead.

[voice]

[wavecresting]

.. Actually, I've heard it happens here. People don't die in this city.

[voice]

[torchicked]

[a long moment later -- he's done throwing a fit over the fact that he's, for all intents and purposes, human now]

[mostly]

Your little guide down there says they do. So, which is it?

[voice]

[wavecresting]

I guess it's more that they don't stay dead.

[voice]

[torchicked]

[sounds like E.G.O. or WIZ-DOM work -- Erasers wouldn't bother with a dump like this -- but if he's indeed on another planet, the factions he knows as of the moment do not apply]

[still, he can't be sure of anything right now]

So what you're telling me is I get to die again, is that it? [a snicker] This is ridiculous.

[voice]

[wavecresting]

[Her frown was nearly audible, but she spoke a little slow as she figured it out.] Die again? I..see.

If.. it helps, it's like a second chance at life here.

[voice] why are you such a dick, Laf

[torchicked]

[he would've thought she'd got it a while ago] Took you long enough.

A dump like this is a second chance? They've gotta be scraping the bottom of the barrel.

[voice] don't worry she's nice enough to ignore it

[wavecresting]

I try not to assume someone has been dead back in their world.

It's at least something. .. So would you like directions? If you've heard about how people are brought back, you must have heard that everyone has chips that are suppressing any powers they have.
