[The sound comes on with a small click, and there isn't too long before Ikutsuki starts to speak, his tone fascinated:]

Siren's Port, Canada. The year is 2010. We have all been brought from different places and different times, by methods unknown. One might wonder what to make of it all. Personally, I find this occurrence fascinating and one that

[axemeaquestion]

So you're... new, then? You're pretty enthusiastic about it.

[Translation: what is wrong with you people.]

[Video] i am totally okay with this

[rodeforthefall]

Yes, my arrival here was a recent, although unexpected occurrence. Nevertheless, what is there not to be enthusiastic about?

[Video] for the rest of your life?

[axemeaquestion]

I could write a three page paper on what there's not to be enthusastic about and get an A-.

Different strokes, different folks, I guess.

[Video] Of course! <3

[rodeforthefall]

Well, did you have some examples, then?

[revengeslance]

Ikutsuki-san?

[rodeforthefall]

Ken-kun! [He sounds slightly enthusiastic.] So, you were brought to this place as well...?

[revengeslance]

Uh-huh. Shinjiro-san, Sanada-san, and Mitsuru-san are here too, and so is Arisato-san...only she's, well, a girl.

[rodeforthefall]

A...what? What do you mean by that?

[voice;]

[weaktobullets]

[....chill. Just. Gdi, Ikutsuki.]

You too, Chairman? [Not that. He has to ask, with those puns.] I'm sure you can find better coats someplace, but they don't take yen here.

[voice;] argh sorry for the reposts

[rodeforthefall]

[Hey, he thinks he's cool! Get it? Cool? Ahem. Anyway, there's a bit of a surprised pause, because if it's who he thinks it is...he's...pretty sure you're dead.]

Intriguing. [And yet, he doesn't specify what, exactly, he finds so intriguing.]

Yes, I figured if this place was modelling itself after Canada, it would use different currency. Are the coats particularly expensive? At least there's still time before winter will truly start to settle in.

[voice;] Quite alright!

[weaktobullets]

[That is quite a good reason to be surprised!]

....What is?

And far as I can tell it ain't modeled after the place so much as is Canada. And I ain't... so good with the whole conversion thing. I figure it'll run you anywhere from fifty to a couple hundred dollars, or whatever. I've just been wearing mine from back home.

[voice;]

[rodeforthefall]

Ah, I probably won't be able to afford it just yet, not with the other expenses. Well, I'll have to explore this place further once it's light outside again. I was told there were monsters during the night-time hours. Monsters. Everywhere.

And don't you find the entire situation a little intriguing? Don't tell me you expected something like this to happen!

[Especially because he's pretty sure you're Shinjiro Aragaki now, and you know. Dead.]

[foretells]

[What is this, some sort of joke? Minako's out, actually, so she just sort of...stops what she's doing to listen in on this.

Ikutsuki. Ikutsuki's here.

A hand instinctively tightens around her naginata in anger and then she relaxes, closing her eyes. She finds a safe place to hang out and turns on her NV properly to investigate this.]

[foretells]

Ikutsuki-san.

video; deja vu!

[rodeforthefall]

Yes? ...Do I know you?

video; I know~!

[foretells]

[So he doesn't recognize her. That can work to her advantage a little. Instead of immediately gearing herself up for some sort of argument, she smiles.]

My name's Arisato, Ikutsuki-san. Minako Arisato.

[malevolences]

[Quiet laughter. Someone liked the joke, at least.]

[ voice ]

[rodeforthefall]

[Did someone actually just ... he chuckles a little.]

I've been practicing that one for a while, actually.

[ voice ]

[malevolences]

It was really good.

[ voice ]

[rodeforthefall]

I'm glad you thought so! Don't worry, there's a lot more where that came from.
