round 001 || Knuckle || [accidental video]

[The feed comes on to a nice shot of a pair of shoes, and the bottom of some sort of black robe.]

What in heaven's name is thi-

[He turns the device around so that his face finally comes into view and he immediately freezes up the moment he sees his face on the tiny little device. Very slowly and carefully just places the device back where he found it. He was not sure what the little device was, but he was sure that he PROBABLY shouldn't be touching it. The priest wandered out into the hall, and for anyone who may remember a certain Sasagawa Ryohei... well... the shouting will be very nostalgic.]

EXCUSE ME?! IS ANYONE HERE?! I SEEM TO BE VERY LOST, TO THE MAX!

[Knuckle trotted out with the little thingamajig in his hands, looking just as dumbfounded as ever.]

[Well good luck there Mary, as he simply paused in the doorway. Sure, he had seen more of the modern electric conveniences than many his time, thanks to his upbringing in a big city... but even that couldn't prepare him for... this.

He was able to recignize the stove, and what he guess was some sort of up-right icebox? But beyond that, he was rather speechless.

...for once.]

Knuckle? You don't look like no echidna or hedgehog or what the fuck ever...huh.

[If Knuckle is expecting a finger wagging under his nose, some tsking, or the floor opening into a pit of flames then he's going to be disappointed. Debbie Downer, what is that.] That's rough, buddy. Remind me not to get inbetween you an' a dick punch. This one time I pissed in some holy water, an after the infection I guess we just gotta take that shit a day at a time.

[Setting a tea kettle on the stove, she turned on the burner, fully aware that he was probably staring dumbfounded at all of the kitchen goodies.

Turning back to him, she smiled at his expression...the poor guy.]

Come and sit with me.

[Sitting in a chair at the table, she beckoned him closer.]

Perhaps we should start with what questions you may have.

[Is this guy for real? Honestly.]

Okay listen good cause I am only going to say it once. The device in your hand right now is called a phone. You use it to talk to people who are not anywhere near you.

[Well, that cemented it in his head... for the moment... sort of. Didn't quite make him any less confused though.]

Really?! Well that is extremely useful... [After poking it for another moment he looked back up at the helpful stranger] but how on earth does it do that?

Even if you would happen to forget or not be able to comprehend yet, living here repeats it as many times as necessary to get the fact memorized.

[Oh hell no! He's not talking about the tech behind this thing. cause he's basically more of an expert at breaking these things than putting em together. That's Gido's job.]

There's a transmitter kind of thing inside it and it sends out your voice to the device you call from the list.

[hey that actually sounded good.]

[Well at least the table and chairs were familiar. Knuckle complies, still eyeing the odd contraptions as he sat down.]

Questions? [He chuckled a little awkwardly] Well, there are so many, I'm not quite sure where to start!

[Translation: He forgot what he wanted to ask.]

[If only such maximum headtilting could be heard over the audio function.]

You... are quite the peculiar sort aren't you?

[And don't mind as his brain just sort of preemptively censors your words dearest Badou. His mind is a frail, fragile, little thing.]

You do have quite the point there my boy!

[And a hearty chuckle is had.]

So, it's like some sort of radio? [He looked back down at it to poke some more.] Well that is quite handy! Thank you!

[...]

Also, if I may ask... where exactly am I?

[Hey get off Badou's nuts he was just trying to help ok! And if only facepalming glory could also be heard over audio, they'd be two peas in some sort of...pod of exasperation...]

I ain't the fuckin talkin' hedgehog slash echidna now, am I? Not to mention that priestly shit. Speak fer yourself, brah. I've been told I'm quite an interestin guy, I'll give ya that. Real hard boiled.

Okay...for starters. You'll probably see some people you know here.

But, they may be different. For example, I'm twenty nine...I was able to meet my grown children here.

Yea exactly. Though it can also do Video.

[And now it's time for the bad news.]

You're in the mansion right now. Apparently a person called the Author brought a bunch of us here to take part in her stupid fantasies.

My name is Ryuutaro Fukami, it's a pleasure to meet you.

[Just to avoid being called anything like a random 'my boy' again.]

Is there any specific question you have?

[It really was a mystery how this stranger could go from talking about hedgehogs, to.. whatever this 'brah' was... and then to something hard boiled? ...Eggs perhaps? Was he hungry? It was quite peculiar.]

You are quite unique, I will have to agree with that.

[He chuckled a bit... awkwardly. Not everyday you meet someone you can't see... who could probably only be speaking in tongues... ~~very convincing devil impersonator indeed~~.]

Oh! Well that certainly would make sense... Have you seen anyone... ah... well they're a peculiar group. There's Giotto, a rather short fellow, blonde hair that is quite scattered about and tussled, then there's G, you could spot him a mile away, bright red hair and a distinctive tattoo on his face. Lampo, well he would have made his presence known, he's a lord and I'm afraid it's made him favor extravagance a tad too much. He's a good boy though. There's Alaude, another blonde but his hair is more well kept, he's a very seclusive person and mostly keeps to himself, and there's Spade, he's also of noble lineage, he's got a... well a very peculiar way he parts his hair, and there's a tuft towards the back.

Have you seen any of them?

[And oop, lookie there you just so happen to brake his brain again, though at least this time it's not because he's an idiot... mostly.]

I... beg your pardon?

Ah, forgive my manners, I plum forgot to introduce myself! I'm Knuckle, It's nice to meet you too Ryuutaro!

[And he was about to offer the boy his hand when... he realized it was impossible to do so over the odd little device. He chuckles awkwardly and rubs the back of his neck.]

I cannot think of one at the moment I'm afraid...

[He HAD them... he had just forgotten what they were...]

[Ending up in a place like this with a device he didn't understand and then this man didn't even have any questions?]

That's unusual for a new arrival, I have to say.

Yeah, I am pretty fuckin' wonderful, aren't I? [Obnoxious snort a-go! Badou has a very...charming tongue and he hasn't even been struck by holy spirit!] Look in the mirror pal, you're some form of unique or maybe just a sucker if ya really think you're in hell. Ain't ball shriveling-ly hot enough fer that. Probably. Can't say I've vacationed there.
If you were there, what wouldja do? Preach the good news an make nun habits outta bones? ....That might be kinda hot, actually. [Curious Badou is curious.]

[Thinking about the descriptions, she took a moment to ponder them...before finally shaking her head.]

I'm sorry, but no. It doesn't mean they won't show up later though.

[Oh boy this is going to be a loong explanation.]

Yea you heard right. We're all prisoners to some author who likes to write random stories and we have to take part in them.

[The word's blankest stare. Give him a moment to try and register this.]

[...]

[...]

[.... yeaaah, nope. This isn't even vaguely getting through. Simpler terms Adam-dearest.]

W-what?
