[The feed begins hesitantly. As if the communicator is not quite sure whether it wants to work, not work, or just... explode into a bunch of itty bitty pieces, like a rain of confetti. A young child's face eventually becomes clear; small, sort of pretty, and dressed quite nicely, with an overlarge ribbon tied in a bow around his neck. He doesn't

Heh. They've reached a new low, bringing in little kids.

[ Jack smirks at the screen, and speaks sarcastically. ] Hey, do you know any English? It'd be a big help.

[There's a pause as Loki considers whether to answer, before deciding that there's little harm in it. He doesn't exactly look Japanese after all.]

Yes.

[ethericbit]

[ Oh, he does know English. He wasn't expecting that. ] Oh, uh. Well. Congrats, you've been kidnapped!

[magicalgirloki]

It's not like it's any sort of grand achievement. Over two thousand children are reported missing every day.

And this is only in the United States.

YA! Welcome to Fortuna!

[Big smile and, hey, look! Tatsumi is even giving a salute]

[magicalgirloki]

[Giving a disdainful look at his surroundings. He is not impressed.] What a deplorably inappropriate name.

[totallygaaay]

Ha ha! Ya, it's a real kick, isn't it?

That's not all! I don't know where ya at but if your luck isn't good, ya might be breathing in fallout from a nuclear bomb too!

[magicalgirloki]

Well that's just lovely. You should really think of a career in motivational speaking, mister.

Think of all the youthful spirits you could break.

[Blinking once or twice, Cube tries to assist, though this new person looks like someone he's known before.]

Ah, we can hear you, sir. I'm afraid this isn't a trick from one of your friends, unless you happen to know one of the scientists.

W-what I mean is, you've been taken from your home world and placed here by a group we call "the scientists." It's best you seek shelter as soon as possible, for your safety.

[magicalgirloki]

Kazumi-kun isn't a friend. [Perish the thought. Honestly, he stopped listening to you after that, Cube, because the idea was that horrifying.]

[loyal_cube]

My apologies. Still, it doesn't change your situation at all.

My name is Cube. I've been studying medicine in this world for two years now. I-I'd like to assist you find somewhere safe. Could you explain your surroundings perhaps?

[magicalgirloki]

I'm in some sort of ship yard in a city called Spero, apparently, Cu-chan~ [Yes. That is your name now. Deal with it.] And it sure is messy-- are the janitorial staff all on strike or something?

[dontcallmegol]

{Waiting for the dizzying shaking to stop before finally speaking up.}

Afraid I haven't met a "yamino-kun"

You said your friend isn't moving? Are they okay? {He's talking about this Ecchan you mentioned.}

[Voice-Japanese]

[magicalgirloki]

... Ecchan isn't a friend, he's Ecchan. [Because calling a Shikigami you summoned a friend is a little... even if Loki does care about him more than most humans.]

[Voice-Japanese] at some point the little god of fire needs to see the pirate in action

[dontcallmegol]

Who is Ecchan? {Curious curious.}

[Voice-Japanese] yessssssssss. yes times a million.

[magicalgirloki]

[Said simply.] A shikigami.

Or. At least. He was one.
