Er...guys?

I... I can't get Tettsui to activate. At all. [Mutters:] Maybe I broke it... It's still in one piece and I don't think it took it's choice back but... I had to use the stairs yesterday and today because of it.

[/FILTER]Is anyone having

Comments

...Lazy bum.

[looseleafbook]

I'm not being lazy. I live at the top floor, there are a lot of stairs!

[promisedlotus]

Less stairs than the castle, rabbit.

[looseleafbook]

I don't use the stairs there either!

[voice]

[coldbrokenlight]

They aren't working.

[voice]

[looseleafbook]

So it isn't just me... Great. We'll be mostly defenseless this week.

[voice]

[coldbrokenlight]

We'll just have to hope nothing [no one] decides to get rid of us until this is over.

[luckily some of us still have swords..]

[voice]

[looseleafbook]

We've got two threats that we know about, just not if they'll strike this week. If they do we might be better off leaving the apartment building. Let them attack it while they think we're inside.

[pi_of_fortune]

What's wrong, Lavi?

[She hasn't noticed any changes]

(OOC: I might respond with my other Naoto journal if that's okay.)

[Voice] That's fine! o/

[looseleafbook]

I'm having trouble using Tettsui.

[Voice] Okay! \o/

[pishirogane]

Tettsui? Ah...

[She remembers] Strange... could you use Tettsui yesterday?

[Voice]

[looseleafbook]

No, but I could use it on the ninth no problem.

[fallforthesky]

[For as badly as she's reacted to play weeks in the past, this may be the worst yet. Her resolve can only stand to so much when everything that proves its existence keeps disappearing.]

Something's wrong with Dark Boots, too. They aren't- I can't feel them anymore. [There's a rustle over the feed as she brings one of her legs up, jostling the PDA, and touches the metal ring around her ankle. Nothing. Not a single remnant of that deeper-than-blood connection she'd grown so used to; they're just... anklets. She has no Innocence. Again.

Her voice is a little shakier when she next speaks.] It's near the middle of the month, right? So it's probably... Libitina...

[Voice; same filter]

[looseleafbook]

That's what I thought. [A sort of worried tone but not too overly protective takes a hold of Lavi's voice. He knows that while she hates Innocence, hates the war, the boots are very much a part of her, they make her who she is.]

It might be better to group up again like w did in the fog, don't you think? Just in case she decides to do something funny this week.

[Voice; same filter]

[fallforthesky]

[They let her protect everyone. And now, if she has to, she can't. It makes her feel antsy, a cold squirming in her stomach.]

I think it's better to do something like that than be caught off-guard, but only if we can get everyone to group together.

[She imagines it'll be more difficult now that the number of people to keep an eye on has increased. The chance that personalities will clash...]

[Voice; same filter]

[looseleafbook]

[Rubs at his head, thinking along the same lines.]

Might be best to keep us all on the lower two floors if we can. Use those rooms in case we need to evacuate or something.

[This guy is very interesting. His hair looks kind of like it's on fire. He's not saying anything she understands but she's kind of used to that.]

Nima? Iselda ilian de sol?

Okus de ilian de kia?

[She wonders if he's trapped in the strange book that holds the pool of infinite words. She wonders if he needs help. The PDA may translate some of this to convey her concern. She's going to be more careful about rattling the thing around from now on since it seems like people are stuck inside.]

[looseleafbook]

[Pe-perk. New language. That always catches his ears. As a Bookman he's always eager to learn new ones.]

Ah, I'm afraid I don't understand you. Parlez-vous français? [Do you speak French?] Вы говорите по-русски? [Russian?] Sprechen Sie Deutsch? [German?]

[Video]

[shroud_of_gray]

Ilsad nidana iksol... he da...

[Curious. The person inside doesn't seem too distressed. But she cannot understand him.]

...Nei imal?

[She gestures to him.] Imalda de Yorda. [And gestures to herself.]

[Video]

[looseleafbook]

[He's too caught up in the language thing to really...realize she doesn't seem to know English.]

Ah... [Not sure which part of all that was her name. Points at himself.] Lavi.
