[001] voice

[tom_hanniger]

[There’s a long moment between picking up the phone and saying anything. Perhaps the quiet sound of someone trying to control their breathing, but little else. Finally, the person speaks, his voice masculine but hushed; as if he’s afraid someone might overhear.]

I- I don’t know if..

This is insane.

[After what had been a panicked morning, Tom

Alright, let me guess. You woke up in a strange house, in strange clothes, after being asleep or unconscious or maybe even dead. There's pictures of you on the wall posing with people you've never even met. And you're a long, long way from home.

How close am I?

[tom_hanniger]

Yes! Exactly. What the hell is going on here!?

[sanctusdei]

[There's a soft chuckle on the other end.] My my, the town is is rare form! This phone has been ringing off the hook with all these new faces showing up the last few days...

Welcome to Mayfield. Otherwise known as hell.

HE SPENDS MOST OF THIS CONVERSATION SILENTLY GOING WTFFFF jsyk

[tom_hanniger]

Never heard of it.

How'd I get here?

[feliformia]

Unfortunately, you don't sound nuts at all.

[tom_hanniger]

Uh, thanks. I think.

[feliformia]

Tis debatable whether that is better or not, but you're now in Mayfield.

[tom_hanniger]

So I've been told, but I've never heard of it before. What state is this?

[electrowhipit]

I guess kidnapped... works.

[tom_hanniger]

Well I didn't drive myself here.

[electrowhipit]

We all get here the same way- we just wake up in a strange house, with a strange family.

[tom_hanniger]

And then what?

[not_oflegend]

I'm sorry, but we've all been kidnapped.

[tom_hanniger]

How many people can hear me? Sorry.. I've never seen a phone like this, I guess.

[not_oflegend]

Anyone who happens to be on. It's like an open connection.

I don't know how it works like that, but it does.

[tom_hanniger]

Hm.

So...any idea who's behind all this?

[ohmytenth]

[Here enters a teenager, scowling and staring.]

Who the hell are you supposed to be?

[tom_hanniger]

[And here stands a man ready to have a panic attack]

I- what? My name is Tom.

[ohmytenth]

...che. New guy, huh? [Hands in his pockets, he observes him.] Has anyone told you what's going on yet?

[tom_hanniger]

A little bit.

[He sets down the phone, pretty content to ignore it's existence. Voices are one thing, but now he's actually seen someone in the flesh..that makes it all the more likely that this is actually happening. Fuck.]

Basically "we've been kidnapped and abandoned in this random town that we can't leave,". Is this for real?
