[ The communicator abruptly turns on to a video of what looks like a teenage girl in a broad-brimmed hat. Well, a girl with gray skin, fangs, and what looks like two fang marks on the side of her neck. She looks more than a little irritated as she fiddles with the buttons.You say "use this," but you don't come with an instruction manual and then

[ w e l p. This was a sight to behold! He's watching the entire time, thinking about what to say.. or do.
He sucks in his cheeks for a moment before finally blurting out in an awkward silence once she is finished. ]

Ah, yes, hello there lady with the teeth of a tiger!
If you are angry at the communicator, I should let you know that it was actually invented in Japan...

[rockonbones]

Huh?

[ Pulling it back from her ear and OH HEY. VIDEO. She relaxes a bit now that she knows that she's not alone talking to herself like a lunatic. ]

Oh! Wow, I haven't used one of these kinds of things in a long time. [ chuckling a bit in embarrassment because wow, way to fail at technology Mar. ]

Hello there.[ Grinning large enough that it looks like she's baring her teeth. ] And who might you be?

O-Oh.
Oh, I see you like my product! It is a... aaah, uh. A Korean product! You are using it because it is easy to operate. It can with stand your frustration and anger as you see!

YOU HAVE RECEIVED IT AT THE DISCOUNT PRICE OF FREE.

Aaaaaa, how does that make you feel? You should be very appreciative and happy!

[ At the question, he puts a finger on his lower lip.
Then an array of melodramatic preparation and sparkles and roses and sunshine, he poses in a blast of air blowing against his silky Asian hair...
So fabulous. He was a natural. ]

I am a free spirited nation named Korea! I am the best Korea, and the closest thing to Byung Hun Lee you will get! ☆☆
It is a pleasure to meet you, and bless you with my presence over such an advanced Korean device!

[ A BOW. ]

[ First thought: "if I'm in the Melodrama Kingdom I am just going to turn right back around and shove my face into the Glass Shards Kingdom." ]

[ walking up to her from behind after that little display... ]

You're pretty violent, aren't you, young lady?

action;

[rockonbones]

[ After some more frustrated sounds she gives up, shoving the communicator in her jeans pocket for a while. ]

What can I say, it's a part of being undead.

[ Sighing, she plucks a few strings on her bass guitar battle axe. ]

And things are kinda sucking right now, obviously.

[steelbody]

I'm assuming that you're a vampire, in that case. [ Walks up a little closer. ] But if it helps, people will, most likely, start responding on that communicator sooner or later. They started talking to me pretty quickly when I was brought here.

action;

[rockonbones]

That's right.

Yeah, I already freaked out some weird guy on it. Kinda funny, except he was a little more focused on convincing me not to suck his blood than being helpful. He wasn't even very convincing.

[ethericbit]

Haha, jeez! You don't have to hit it that hard. It's working. [ hey Marceline this kid has just as much of a crazy grin as you do ]

So, uh, welcome to Discedo. Or whichever city you're in. They're all dumps, anyway.

voice.

[rockonbones]

[ OH JOY CRAZY FRIENDS. At least she won't be bored. Though really, nothing's concerning her right now except the fact that her powers aren't working. She doesn't want to walk everywhere. PRIORITIES. ]

Discedo? Never heard of it.

[ Now she just sound so calm and cool. Like a cool person. She is the coolest person. ]

It's not so bad as far as I've seen. Almost makes me a little nostalgic.

voice.

[ethericbit]

Nostalgic? Wow, where the heck are you from? I've never seen any new guys who actually liked this place before. 'Cept that Japan girl, but she's crazy anyway.

voice.

[rockonbones]

I'm from Ooo. [ Shrugging as though saying that explains everything. YOU CAN'T HEAR IT BUT SHE'S SHRUGGING. ]

All the wreckage and abandoned stuff reminds me of childhood. Let's just say I've lived in Ooo a really long time.

[ audio ]

[isolatedpiece]

[ ... Well. All of this is a rather.. interesting display, and Ange can't help but speak up with her tone as deadpan as ever. ]

You're right. You're just standing there with some metal shoved against your ear, congratulations.

[ audio ]

[rockonbones]

[ Wow rude. ]

I meant--! Whatever, never mind. Can you give me straight answers, are you just going to keep wasting my time?

[ audio ]

[isolatedpiece]

Sure, I can tell you what's going on, but it's not like that would help much.

You see, this place is called Discedo, and it's your new home dump for the upcoming time. You were practically kidnapped here by a bunch of scientists.

[ audio ]

[rockonbones]

It's not like knowing nothing is helpful! I know about the kidnapping, but what about my powers?! Why were those taken away and how do I get them back?

[crotchroses]

[WAVING.] Bonjour! [He seems unconcerned by the violence. In fact--]

Oh, you can't destroy these things, but I can't imagine why anyone would want to do so. They're very useful!

That's quite the axe! I prefer a sword, you know, it's more elegant and versatile. Or a hand axe, but ah, listen to me go on.

Welcome to Fortuna, my strange mademoiselle!

[rockonbones]

Hmmphh. [ Calming down somewhat. ] Bonjour yourself.

[ Marceline leans back against... something, I don't know, and starts playing around on the bass guitar/axe. ]

It's... sorta a family heirloom. Not that swords aren't fun too, but it doesn't have the same feel to it.

You know, I've traveled a lot in my lifetime, and I've never been here. Or anywhere where they shut off your-- [ oh yeah, remembering Korea's reaction. Best to keep the vampire stuff on the down-low until she has answers. ] --powers.
