act 1 (video)

[the feed starts, camera set up about three feet away from its owner, carefully centered and focused.  there's a man in large, snazzy goggles and a white lab coat -- he adjusts said goggles carefully and opens his mouth as if to say something then seems to think better of it and swallow his breath with a grimace.]

--okay, you know what?  I'm not even going to bother with the evil laugh this time.  This is just kind of weird, even for me.  I mean, I have my... Uh, really extensive share of fans and followers, but this is the first time anyone's tried to kidnap me.  This is something out of Misery-- God, that book gave me chills.  You guys aren't going to like, cut my legs off if I refuse to play along, are you?  [OOEER, shudder.]

Because, seriously?  Do you have any idea who you're dealing with here?

You're dealing with the next biggest supervillain to hit Los Ange-- Death City-- since Mister Maniacal himself.  [aw yeah, smirk at the camera, work it Billy--]  I... Am Dr. Horrible.  But.  Uh.  I guess if you kidnapped me... You already knew that...

[... anyway--]  Anyway... I've got a lot to take care of back home, and this whole-- [vague handwave] --thing is a little freaky.  I've got evil plots to plan, laundry to do, and fighting in some make believe LARP war isn't exactly on my agenda.  So uh, take me back at once or I'll hold the mayor ransom.

Or if you don't have a mayor, then maybe... Like a viceroy, or a lord or something...

[...kind of lost his steam there.  no time to recover.  he frowns dubiously at the camera, then quickly reaches to turn off the feed.]

[There are a lot of loud noises on the other end of the line first, like someone’s crashing around and pounding on the PDA a little. There’s a low whistle when the display finally comes on, and the first thing one sees is a gloved hand splayed across the screen before a face – young, clean, male – zooms into focus.

No, he doesn’t look happy.]


…You have got to be kidding me…


[Long, exasperated sigh.]


All right, listen up.

Thanks, y’know, for pulling me out from the whole light at the end of the tunnel thing back in my world, but… this war you’re talking about? It just ain’t my style.

So~


[Grin.]


Give me one good reason why I ought to help you. If you can’t, count me out.

The video starts up and Luki is... she's somewhere in the city. There are buildings around and the sun is laughing over there. The camera is flipped over with the communicator, giving everyone an upside-down view of a building before it turns back and Luki finally comes into view. She's crying and it looks like she's been crying for awhile. She opens her mouth to speak, but stops and turns the camera away for a moment to rub her eyes. Luki comes back into focus a few seconds later and manages to speak this time, although her voice is a little cracked and the camera is shaking.

]

Hello?

Hi?

H-hello.

[

She rubs her eyes again and sniffles once.

]

I'm trying to find my sister Noki.

[

And the camera gets even more shaky as Luki stands up to pan the camera over herself.

]

She looks like me but her dress is pink and her eyes are the other way around.

[

Instead of sitting back down, she holds the camera at waist-level, looking down at it.

]

Please tell Luki if you see her. I got really tired after running for only a little while and I can't jump anymore but I have to find Noki.

thankyou

[There's a bit of static before the video feed pops up. A young girl with a shock of bright pink hair is staring at the screen, her expression bemused. She's scratching the back of her head. The two top buttons of her bamfin' jacket are undone, and her hair looks a bit frizzy at the edges.]

I hope I'm using this thing right. I'm not used to this sort of stuff. [She shifts irritably, mutters:]
Geez, this is a mess. Can I get through a day without something weird going on?

[An awkward pause. She sits down, her legs crossed in front of her.] Uh, anyway. My name's Utena Tenjou. Is this some kind of trick?

[She frowns, bites the inside of her mouth, and finally asks:] Is anyone from Ohtori here? I'm looking for a friend -- she was just with me.

So many have re-explained this place, but there must be things that have slipped through. For one, I have not seen those "links" as much - what has happened to them? ... I... suppose they are out of date, aru...

... Nonetheless! They are still useful! And much time had been put into them, so they should be appreciated! For those of you with any questions on anything at all - except for those on training or finding out what you are, but that has been explained enough - simply refer to-- to- [text] this. [/text].

It should cover all, so you should not have many further questions to ask. Though, I have a few questions for any and all, aru.

First- what... is identity? Who you are, or what you are? What you do, or what you believe? A name, face or existence...?

[ pause. ]

Second- how many of you have never cooked for yourselves? And believe that living off of those burgers and coffee - or others - is a good idea? They are called "chains" for a reason, aru...! And it is because of what they do to you!




[ after petering out, a curious noise. silence. ]

... This will be full of regret-- a-aa, Russia? Russia, are you there?

From one war to another. Couldn't you have come up with something more original? [The faint tap of buttons being pressed can be heard as the girl plays with the communicator. She may or may not know the device is actually on, but she doesn't sound like she could even begin to care. She continues speaking to herself, a hint of something like amusement in her voice.]

But this fight is not mine. What reason do I have to go along with it?

None. I don't take orders from fools.

At least the theme is amusing. If wholly uncreative. "Death City"? Tch.

Perhaps it could be fun, yet...

[The tapping abruptly stops and there is a long pause, followed by a sharp, frustrated intake of breath.] I can't feel anything.

[There's a loud clunk as the device is set down far more forcefully than necessary, and her tone has taken a sudden turn toward bitchy.] This is stupid. I don't want to play this game. You're not even playing fair, and I've lost interest already. Take me back, now.



[OOC: Kinda late intro, sorry. I was busy and wasn't sure how long to wait 'cause of the newbie log so I hope this is okay...?]

This is getting ridiculous.

Hey, girl. [ a pause, a very strained one at that. ]

Namine. Are you well?
