I'm telling you, I need to go back to save her from whatever he plans to do with her!

[Pictured: One ginger-haired teen yelling at the side, his right hand holding the phone which is pointing at himself, his left hand is cut off from the screen, though.

Not pictured and heard: The person he's arguing with.

Got that? Good, because that's exactly what you're seeing right now.]

...

What do you mean I'm in love with her? She's just an ally right now!

[There's a frustrated sigh as he then turned his head to face the camera, left hand dropping down right as he does that.]

Er, sorry about that, a-anyways, uh, they called us here to be heroes, right?

[The teen looked awkward about this.]

I would love to help, but I'm in the middle of something bigger right now, so if you guys can point me back to a plane ticket to Japan, it'd be great-

[And then he raised his left hand, showing a tomato, as he just glared at it.]

I told you, she's not my girlfriend!

[...Uh, before the 'argument' has a chance to continue, the teen is going to just. Cut off the feed because he's pretty sure he's now painting the first impression that he's actually a nutcase.

And before you ask, yes, that earlier person, was in fact, the 'tomato' he was holding just now.]

[She's sadly really used to dense ones.]

Good luck! But there's isn't enough luck in the world to get you back to where you want to be. There's no easy exits. Trust me, everybody's looked. Do you think people would still be wasting time here if we could leave? We've all got irons in the fire that got put on hold because Lachesis is a bitch.

[...Her words stung, if only because part of him believed that her words are the truth and that Tohsaka might not be able to be saved until whatever business Lachesis have with him is done.

It's painful, really, but... he... had to endure it for now.]

Stuck here.

[Hang on his brain's rebooting for now.]

[luckout]

Yuuuuuuuup, now you're getting it! It sucks, but them's the breaks!

[Vriska seems to be a little too chipper about telling people they're trapped but, well, she is a troll, after all. It's just in her nature.]

[steelminded]

And how do I know that you're speaking the truth here?

[just... saying...]

[luckout]

Because I've been here longer than an Earth year, so I know a lot more about this place than you. How would I benefit from lying to you, anyway?

[steelminded]

...Mm, I guess you have a point there.

[There's a disgruntled sigh from him.]

What else do I need to know about this place anyways?

[luckout]

If you're a wiggler they'll give you an allowance to live on. Aaaaaaaand sometimes this place does awful shit like throwing you into other dimensions! But mostly it's pretty average living.

[steelminded]

Other dimensions?

[this is sounding more and more like an adventure comic/manga, if anything...!]
