[After a long-winded process of reaching the Welcome Center by the end of his first day, getting settled in one of their rooms, and finally getting his clothes, Beast has been staying in his very-unfamiliarly-tiny room just... brooding and trying to make sense of his fate. He's still perfectly convinced that he ended up here because the ( Read more... )

Weeeeell, it's kinda hard to explain, ya'see. It's kind of like a prison, but it's a lot nicer than that. And it's kinda like a second chance, but you just can't ever leave to go back to what you were doin' unless the Malnosso - the guys who up and kidnapped us - decide to let you go.

[Voice] tailasoldastime September 22 2011, 05:18:09 UTC

[Wait, where is that voice coming from?

Oh right, the journal... wow, it worked!

Carefully picks up the journal again.] ... Malnosso?

[Voice] cuteobsessed September 22 2011, 05:23:26 UTC

Yup! You gotta be new. The Malnosso are the on--

[HOLY SHIT, WHAT IS THAT ON THE SCREEN?! It looks like a big fluffy bear...thing. Scary teeth, BUT THAT DOES NOT MATTER. Heisuke peers at the camera screensnap.]

........oh my God, are you furry? Please tell me you're another talking furry animal thing. This place is so awesome.

[Voice] tailasoldastime September 22 2011, 05:29:38 UTC

[... Wait, they can SEE him?!

Riku did not give him this detail! He knew he couldn't trust him!

... Sigh.] Yes. I'm a Beast. [This is going to take getting used to, isn't it.]

"What is it?"

That is certainly the question. I'm afraid, as I am relatively new here myself, I don't have a proper answer. I can say, though, that it is not like any location I am familiar with. The flora and fauna seem a curious mix, with no indication of proper geographical regions.

The people here are not from one particular place, and I have found that even the years they lived in vary greatly. The longest span of time I have recorded is almost two hundred years, though I was given to understand that others are further separated than that.

[Voice] tailasoldastime September 22 2011, 07:03:02 UTC

[... Oh wow. When Beast was hoping for answers, he certainly wasn't expecting one that long. Though, admittedly... he doesn't understand half of it.

He tentatively picks up the journal, not entirely sure how to react to all that the man said.] ... What?

[Voice] halftheduet September 22 2011, 07:05:26 UTC

[Stephen sighs. He supposes he shouldn't be surprised. Time to simplify.]

The plants and animals found here are not from one specific environment, which makes placing Luceti on any map I know nearly impossible. The people here seem to, somehow, have lived at times hundreds of years apart.

[Voice] tailasoldastime September 22 2011, 07:13:42 UTC

[Wow, uh... never would've noticed any of the plants and animal differences; he never really learned of any types outside of his French environment, so the knowledge is quite beyond him.

The rest, though, is... very strange. Kind of overwhelmingly so.] It... but... how is that...? [He's trying to say, "How can this not be geographically located?" and "How can everyone be from different time periods?" but that's way beyond his level of speech or vocabulary.]

[Hello, Beast. Robert's having trouble focusing on things due to his mood, lately, and hearing this question, which is spoken so awkwardly and hesitantly in a way that really hits home for Robert, is a good diversion from his own problems.

If he can't help himself, he can at least help someone else.]

... A-As far as can be... ascertained, Luceti appears to be an... e-experimentation colony of sorts, run by barbaric excuses for "scientists" referred to as the M-Malnosso.

... One can... s-surmise from the artificial nature of the b-biota that this enclosure is manufactured with... i-insufficient knowledge... either that, or the Malnosso are careless.

[Another man who seems to talk on and on about things he doesn't understand.

Well, he'll try and pinpoint some of the things he does understand as he picks up the journal.] ... Scientists?

[Voice] | Filtered 100% semper_cogitans September 23 2011, 02:08:49 UTC

[... Sob, a person who doesn't know what a scientist is. It always makes Robert sad to see that.

Still, Robert will elaborate.]

... A scientist is... an i-individual that acquires knowledge systemically, using wh-what is known as the scientific method...

... Are there none, in... in your world?

[It wouldn't be the first time that nobody calling zirself a scientist would exist. But it makes Robert a little horrified to contemplate.]

[Voice] | Filtered 100% tailasoldastime September 23 2011, 02:17:32 UTC

[Forgive him, Robert; there are plenty of scientists in his world, he's just never been exposed to them.]

... I don't know.

What... what is the... th-that method? ["Scientific" seems much more complicated to say than "science".]

It's a place! Although, we don't really know where it's actually located. People say it's another world or it could be a different dimension.

[Voice] tailasoldastime September 22 2011, 22:50:16 UTC

[Sounds a lot like the other things he's heard, but he's never heard the last word before.

Picking up the journal.] What's a... "dimension"?

[Voice] thederpyhalf September 23 2011, 02:43:32 UTC

Uhh it's like...a portal to another place that's connected to a world. Something like that.

[Meaning she doesn't really know herself.] You really just need to know that this place is very far away from where you came from. And...you might be here for a while.

[Voice] tailasoldastime September 23 2011, 03:01:32 UTC

[O... kay.

Well, when he got here, he already assumed he'd be here for life. Completely hopeless in ever getting out of this form. But after learning that him being stuck here has nothing to do with the Enchantress...]

... Is there really no way out?

[Oh hi guy from his childhood. He won't mention that though.

His tone is firm, yet calm. Not threatening, but not quite friendly either.]

It's a different world.

[It takes a few seconds for Beast to actually bother to come over to the journal. Yes, it's a different world, he's already been told that. Tell him something he doesn't know.

But when he does move, he'll say... oh. Another turtle. Are they abundant or something?]

... Uh... and?

[Voice] Mreow honorthecode September 26 2011, 07:22:24 UTC

Anything specific you want to know about? [So he doesn't repeat anything.]

[Voice] tailasoldastime September 26 2011, 23:38:50 UTC

[Mostly how to read the guide... but he still doesn't want to admit to that.]

Y-yes, uh... [Trying to think of things people mentioned to him before that he never really got to know about. Wait, that Charlie girl mentioned the wings, what about them?]

I... I-I already know about the Malnosso, b-but... [He looks nervously behind him where those ugly things are.] wh... wh-what's with the wings?
