[ The audio starts up, a bit of static before it clears and there's nothing at first before someone speaks, confusion in his voice. ]

I shouldn't--

I'm not--

[ A frustrated sound and something that sounds like a bang on the table or a wall. The voice comes back, less confused and more angered than before. ]Is this another simulated

You're not being very clear.

[dualstance]

He was never clear with me...

[voice]

[dualstance]

Sorry, I guess.

Just.. not in the mood to deal with all this.

[voice]

[not_her_path]

None of us are, really. Even after being here a while.

But it isn't that bad...except that you can't go back until they've won their war.

Who knows how long that will take?

This isn't a simulation.

[Wan smile.]

...And, judging from the rest of your post, I think it's safe for me to say that it isn't what you think, either.

[ voice ] :: hasn't figured out video yet ;;

[dualstance]

What is it then?

Everyone needs to stop giving me vague answers and just tell it to me straight what it is I want to know.

This is Death City, Nevada. It's on the continent of the United States of America, on a world they call Earth. The device that brought you here is BREW - the organization, Shibusen.

You've been called in by BREW because it has determined that you can help Shibusen wage a war against the witches in this place. It's stripped you of your original powers, and replaced them with the ability to be a Weapon or a Meister.

Are you following me so far?

[ voice ] :: /not for pinching >|

[dualstance]

[ listening, listening ]

Yeah, I guess so. At least you're giving me answers.

What's the point of stripping our powers if they want us to fight? That doesn't make any sense to me.

...you might want to start making sense.

[Voice] :: lol fark i can't remember if they met in Days or not

[dualstance]

How can--

[ frustrated sound before a sigh ]

None of this makes any sense to me though.

[ooc: they did not. /helpful]

Then it'd be fantastic if you didn't add to the nonsense.

[livelyhood]

This... isn't supposed to be connected to the "world" you remember, in any way.

It's Death City. Nevada.

[dualstance]

Not connected?

But shouldn't he have-?

[ a pause ]

What do you mean it isn't connected?

[livelyhood]

It was "BREW" that brought you here, without anyone's knowledge. BREW is... supposedly a machine.

[dualstance]

Brought us here to fight in some kind of war, right?

[ his voice is kind of resigned, with an undertone of frustration in it ]

[Voice]

[fromthewaves]

[?! This is a voice she can recognize in her sleep.]

Roxas? I...

[She takes a deep breath, and tries again.] You're here too...

[dualstance]

[ And this voice he can remember, actually remember, but... it hasn't been that long ago since he's heard it, right? ]

Namine?

[Voice]

[dualstance]

What's going on here?

I thought--

Didn't he take you away?

[Videoooo] Heh. She can use it. And can teach you?

[fromthewaves]

[Startled look here, and she's holding onto the mirror firmly, looking worried.]

He? (...DiZ?) No, no. I escaped. [Worryworry] What do you last remember?
