(( ooc: Action opportunity for Spain/The Selkie ;u; I LIVE WITH YOU NOW <333 ))

[The scene opens upon a backdrop of a bedroom, which seems to be decorated à la "Dungeon Torture Chamber". There are bars on the windows and cobblestone walls and floors, and the wall opposite is decorated with various old torture implements and devices - though the

... I'm not sure whether I should be grateful that someone isn't completely freaking out over arriving here for once or just feel disgusted by this sort of message.

[ Even if her face doesn't show, Ange's deadpan voice practically gives her mood away. ]

I meant no harm by it! It was simply a joke, ma chèrie. [He lets out a bit of a laugh.] I've read the paper that was given to me, something about playing the Phantom, and about being brought here for that purpose. But I am not quite sure what it means, it was awfully vague.

Well, I've woken up in much stranger places than this, certainly. "Freaking out", as you put it, is not going to help matters much, non?

Though any information you could impart would be very useful... such as your name, for starters? You may call me Francis.

[ audio ]

[angretel]

... It's Ange. If that will make you stop calling me lame things like 'ma chèrie', then just say Ange.

And it seems we were brought to this place for a certain purpose, namely filling in the roles of the characters mentioned on the letters that we receive when we first arrive here. And when you say 'the Phantom', you don't mean.. [ yes, she has a vague idea. ]

[paysdelamour]

Ah, Ange, m'ange~ [Nnnnnope. Just making it worse, Ange. :I] Merci beaucoup, for answering my call.

Oui, I do believe you and I have the same "Phantom" in mind. Though he and I... we are far different in nature, particularly since he has been described as "Le Mort Vivant", and I am obviously not that hideous.

[femininetomboy]

I... don't think that was the intent.

[ She is 12 and what is this... ]

[paysdelamour]

[... young girl. MUST FAWN ALL OVER LIKE A PAPA.]

Allo, ma petite fleur! What is your name? [So cuuuuuuute~]

[femininetomboy]

[ Madoka blinks. This man seemed quite a bit odd and what language was that? Probably French, but Madoka isn't sure... Anyway, have a smile ]

I'm Amano Madoka
[ she has yet to get used to turning her name around for the non-Japanese people ]

Re: Video

[paysdelamour]

Amano Madoka... that must mean you are from Japan, non? [It sounds Japanese, anyway.] Do you mind if I call you Amano?

I am Francis, by the way.

[soulofaginger]

[Have you ever been looking around out of curiosity, then stumbled upon something where you got a bit more of an eyeful then you would have liked?

Well that's G at the moment. After trying to figure out how to get the little talking mirror to work, this little fruitcake pops on in... there.

Excuse him a moment while he just STARES. And prays no one with a mask and a pair of leather pants comes on to join the blonde man...]

[paysdelamour]

[Nope, no mask yet. There IS a porcelain-white half-mask sitting gently on a table near the bed, though. :D]

[video/text] because he fails

[soulofaginger]

...............

[Alright he needs to remember how to turn this thing off before someone comes in with a whip...

How does this thing go off again? well sir, you are getting a text]

srejk;3e Eerg.,

[Alright fuck that, he's going to solve this problem like a man and start smashing his communicator on the table. SHUT UP THIS IS HOW REAL MEN SOLVE PROBLEMS.]

[paysdelamour]

... allo? Is someone trying to speak with me? Allo? [He sees your random text. NO ESCAPE NOW, BOY. >:3]

[video]

[si_espana]

(ooc: I love how the first line is all about "action opportunity" with Spain XD;)

[Spain hears that voice and immediately reaches for the communicator. He's currently in the kitchen and has no idea that France has now joined him in his home in the Navy District]

Francia?!

Re: [video]

[paysdelamour]

(( ooc: ... you know you want it~ ;3 ))

[He starts at seeing the familiar face pop up on his screen, but then, his smile grows bright and beaming.] Espagne! Nom de Dieu, am I happy to see your face here!

[... huh. Could have sworn he heard him in stereo. Weird.]

[video]

[si_espana]

(ooc: Who doesn't? XD)

[Yes, Spain does hear France's voice a bit too loudly, maybe. There's even some echoing. Hm]

I'm happy to see you too! Well, it's not really a good thing, but I'm happy that you're here anyway!

[paysdelamour]

... [Waaaaaaaait. He could have sworn he heard Spain behind him now. Slowly, he stands up, carrying his little compact with him, stepping out the door to the room into a main room. While he hasn't seen this area before, he does notice that there is a light on in the kitchen area.]

It isn't a good thing to be here?

[video]

[aeterno_arma]

[You can see the face of a teen with green eyes, dark skin and light purple hair wearing a kimono. It's hard to tell if it's a man or a woman.]

[Believe it or not, he's been in roomz that looked like that one before. Or even more decadent. Laurent gives the man a wary look, but answers his questions politely.]

We aren't sure why we arrived here all of sudden sir, you aren't the only one in this situation. Most of the newcomers like us got clothes that weren't theirs before.

You are not? Why the room looks like that?

Video

[paysdelamour]

Then can you please tell me where the "newcomers" like me have been taken to, precisely? I assumed I wasn't the only one, mais, I wasn't sure anyone else was here.

I am not. It seems I'm supposed to take over the place of "Le Fantôme". I assume they mean "Le Fantôme de l'Opéra", from the decor.

Video

[aeterno_arma]

This place is an island called Arcanarum and there's no real way to leave, or at least none that we could use.

"Le Fantôme"? [The man has an interesting accent, he never heard it before.]I'm sorry, I'm not familair with that term.

Re: Video

[paysdelamour]

Arcanarum... I see... and you say it is an island? [The "no escape" part bothers him, but, he has bigger things to worry about now. Orienting himself will be top priority.]

Ah, pardon, it means "The Phantom", in my language.
