001: Video

[The feed switches on to show a dark-haired girl in her mid to late teens, talking in fairly good English. She has a bit of a strange accent though; it's probably closest to some kind of Japanese dialect, but not quite. There are hints she might be a little irritated, but she's trying her hardest to keep it in check. A small black cat peers curiously from her shoulder.]

This is so lame! I'm gonna get into so much trouble with school again for vanishing. I've only just managed to get my teacher to stop going on about how well I'm doing now I've settled down, you know?

[Quietly, almost in a mutter]Not to mention what will happen if that Sephiria lady thinks I've gone missing like the old days...

[Louder again] Hey, anyone out there? I kinda switched off when that voice was talking, so can anyone tell me where I'm meant to be going?

Hello~? Anyone listening to me~?

I'm listening! Hello!

Permavideo then

[Still kind of annoyed, but trying to look a little more cheerful]

Okay, that's a start! Hello!

Now if you could answer the more important question, that would be really nice of you?

[crabulous]

Well, firstly you go to the MAC! They have free beds there! Then, you venture into the world to be a champion of justice!

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

The MAC? Thanks~!

[Laughs]A champion of Justice? I think you've got the wrong person for that~! I'm just a student and I really should be studying right now.

[crabulous]

And in my world, I'm just a lowly doctor! But here, in the City, I'm just as much a hero as everyone else! And apparently, the rowbutt woman believes you are, too!

video!

[outspeeds.livejournal.com]

How'd I know where you're meant to go?

Video it is!

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

[Definitely some frowning going on on Kyoko's end.]

I don't know either, that's why I asked if anyone did!

Ugh, whatever. Look, can you at least tell me something useful, like where I am?

video!

[outspeeds.livejournal.com]

Oh, you're probably new. You're in The City!

Re: video!

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

[Obvious deep breath taken]

Yeah, you could put it that way. You make it sound like this happens a lot!

[Voice]

[tinybutdeadly]

If you're new, you can find a free place to stay at the MAC. Coming from the 'Porter building - where you came in - you go [directions!!!11]

So, uh. Welcome and stuff.

Re: [Voice]

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

[Useful information makes Kyoko a lot happier.]

Oh, right! Thank you~!

Hi! I'm Kyoko.

[Voice]

[tinybutdeadly]

I'm Toph. You have any other questions, feel free to ask. Not like I got much else to do these days.

Re: [Voice]

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

Okay~!

Oh, this is a really important question! Where's the best place to buy snacks?

[dragony]

They're not going to notice, so you're not going to be in trouble when you go back.

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

[A doubtful pause]Really? Have you met my teacher? Or Sephiria? I don't think she misses much at all~!

[A mental shrug later]Whatever~! I'll just have to deal with it when I go home.

[dragony]

Really. When you go back to where you started, it's right where you left. There, it's less time than blinking, no matter how long you're here.

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

But what happens if you're here for years? You could go back and be ancient when you're still meant to be a teenager~!

[timejumps.livejournal.com]

You're supposed to be going around the City and saving people. You're a hero, right?

Video

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

[Kyoko laughs]

No, that's a Sweeper's job! I don't have a license, so I could get in real trouble doing that!

Mr Black is a hero~. I'm just a normal school girl.

[timejumps.livejournal.com]

You're in luck, then. You don't need a license to be a... [ Sweeper? ] ...hero here. That's why you were brought here, according to the machine that did it.

Video

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

Uh, that wasn't really my point? I'm not a Sweeper, or a hero, or anything like that.

The machine must have made a mistake~!

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

Who are you?

Wait, every conversation I have on this thing can be heard by anyone? Ughh, I guess I'll have to buy a phone as well.

[sweatquius.livejournal.com]

[inner-fires.livejournal.com]

[She waves] My name's Kyoko! Hi~!

Do you have to use all those long words? It's so much quicker to just say use, and it means the same thing.
