[Kyoko holds the seal hesitantly in her hand, not so much unsure of if it will work, but more that she won't find a familiar voice on the other end.]

-Hello? Is anyone there? Is this how these things work?

[She pauses for a moment, as if she's not quite sure what to ask.]...My name is Kyoko Sasagawa. I- I'm looking for my big brother. If anyone

Sasagawa-san?

[ not the most intelligent lead in, since in theory, it could sound like she was saying hello to this young girl rather than naming Ryohei. ]

I'm sure he's going to hear this, miss. If I'm hearing you, I know he can. My name is Sakura Haruno, and I met him when we both were new to this place called Splendor. Where are you? Are you still by the City Hall?

[Drops the seal in surprise when Sakura talks out of it. Whoops. Stoops down to pick it up immediately.]

I'm sorry! Are you still there?

[ nnasdf; Sakura winces sympathetically. ... for herself. ]

I'm still here. I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to startle you.

Ah- Haruno-san, right? You said you know my big brother?

I don't know your brother but the seal you're using right now should be able to get you through to him if he's here.

Are you lost? If you've just arrived and need guidance, I don't mind coming to your aid. [ sounds young and impressionable after all. ]

[voice]

[gladlygullible]

The seal...? So it is working correctly...

[Uh oh stranger danger :o]

[But seriously, last time she randomly ended up in a place like this the first stranger she saw tried to kill her. Let's try to take this one with a bit more reserve, hm?]

'Just arrived'? What do you mean?

[voice]

[valhallicity]

The thing you're speaking into right now, even if you don't realize it, is called a seal.

[ stranger danger indeed, even if he's generally nice upon a first meeting. ]

People have been showing up here quite frequently, so those of us who have been here for a while generally try to do our part and help the new arrivals get situated. It's a bit of a pain, but I'm free right now, so I don't mind.

[voice]

[gladlygullible]

Oh, I don't want to inconvenience you. My big brother is coming soon, anyway! He'll show me around.

Hey! You know Ryohei? He's my roommate! I didn't know he had a sister, though...

[gladlygullible]

Roommate...?

-Ah! So he's here?! Do you know where?

audio;

[nicepartner]

Well, I don't know where he is right now, but he's stayin' here in the Alpine District ... Cabin 3!
