video; time to muster reckless courage once again

[sobsforever]

[fiddling with the small device in his hands, Jacuzzi is clearly more then a little confused, and fairly upset. He’s not crying but the way his voice sounds it seems like he could break down at any second.] Um, C-Can everyone hear me alright? I have something to say and it’s kind of, well, it’s pretty important! A-At least for me it is

[who names their kid jacuzzi i mean really.]

Hey, calm down! Crying like that won't get you anywhere in this mess!

[sobsforever]

I'M NOT CRYING!! [he rubs his hand across his eyes just to make sure]

Doesn't look like it to me. [what a poor soul..]

Besides, I'm sure your friends are here and they are okay! I mean, I arrived to this nuthouse a few days back and found my friends.

[sobsforever]

[YOU DON'T KNOW ME YOU DON'T KNOW MY LIFE]

Really? Wow, that's really lucky, I hope I can find my friends the same way.

[freed]

Do calm down. Everything will be alright. No one is here to hurt you.

[he speaks to the poor startled guy in the same syrupy tone one would a small child or in N's case, a pokémon.]

[sobsforever]

Oh, thank you. That's nice to hear. [well at the very least he hopes it's true because the last thing he needs is the cops halfway up his ass in this moment]

[freed]

[don't worry jacuzzi, N is the leader of an underground crime organization so he's got your back if you drop the soap. if he sees a cop, he'll book it so fast it's not even funny.]

There there... Are you alright? Are you lost or anything of the sort?

I'm sure your friends will turn up soon enough. But they probably wouldn't want to see you so upset. [Not unkindly, because he...feels really bad for the guy.]

[breathes. so many nice people here to help him out it's so reassuring!] You're right. I'm just worried about them being stuck in this crazy place, cause really it doesn't make any sense!

[pratservant]

You're right, it doesn't. But...it's not all bad. There are some nice people here.

I'm Merlin, by the way. You're...Jacuzzi?

[sobsforever]

Yeah? I mean you're a nice guy and most other people have been really helpful so I guess it must be true.

[nods] That's right! I-It's nice to meet you.

[In a nonchalant but matter-of-fact manner:]

Getting all worked up like that won't help anything, you know.

audio;

[sobsforever]

I can't really help it, this whole thing absolutely insane! I just want to make sure everyone is ok.

[firaga]

[SIGHS, ohhhh man.] C'mon, take a deeeep breath there and try to relax. [As an example, he gives an inhale, followed by a loud exhale.]

Better?

[After a pause, he continues in the same matter-of-fact tone from before, a slight hint of exasperation present.] If they are here and hear you getting this upset, then they are going to worry. If they're not here, though, it doesn't sound like you'll be getting a hold of them anytime soon, so worrying yourself sick over them won't make matters better I'm afraid. Got it?

audio;

[sobsforever]

Yeah, thanks....

[he pauses before replying, letting that soak in] Alright, but is there really no way to get in contact with them if they're not here?

[venerari]

Fan ah, no one wants to just show up here but you're making me nervous just looking at you!

What are you gonna do if they aren't here, huh? You need to calm down and breathe for a second!

[sobsforever]

[oh... he looks down, like a little kid getting scolded] S-Sorry..... maybe if I can just contact them somehow, with a letter or maybe a telephone call, I can just tell them I'm okay??

[venerari]

Unless they're here, there's no way for you to contact them. If you could do that you might as well just go home, but that's not possible here.

[sobsforever]

Seriously?! There's no way at all?
