[Accidental Voice/Action] A New Arrival

[everyonesconfidant]

[Hiro, upon waking up on the outskirts of Luceti's town, sits up with a start, accidentally smacking the record button on his (open) journal. The following can be heard...]

What happened? Where's Daichi? ...Where's my shirt and my jacket- oh, here they are! Why are there holes in the back? ...My back! There's THINGS on them! Oh my god- OW! They don't come off! Wait, my shirt fits over the things- hey, they're thing-holes! Huh... hey, I can move the things! They're like... wings! And the thing-holes are wing-holes! WAIT, this means I have wings! But how? Wait, where's my cell phone? Crap! I can't defend myself against demons without my cell phone... Gotta find my cell phooooone! ...Hey, wait, what's this?

[Some fumbling sounds are heard, and the recording abruptly ends.]

That's good-

[Sudden halt.]

...Wait. Experiments? Can you explain that, please?

[Voice]

[ex_restoring6]

Of course. [Naoki takes a breath, then starts to explain:] Usually every month or so, an experiment is done to the village. So, like, one time everyone thought they were from others' worlds, another people's thoughts showed up in bubbles over their head...

Most of the time, they aren't too dangerous, but even bad ones happen now and again.

[Voice]

[everyonesconfidant]

...Huh. That sounds... weird. I'm not really looking forward to it... I wonder if anything can be done about the experiments? Especially the bad ones. I mean, people might be able to take the little ones like the thought bubble one, but I'm worried about those "bad experiments"... can you tell me about some of them?

[Voice]

[ex_restoring6]

...Yeah. Once before, there was a big earthquake, wrecked a lot of the buildings and homes. And sometimes they take people away for individual experimentation. People can come back in hard shape.

[Voice]

[everyonesconfidant]

"Individual experimentation"... oh no, they haven't done anything to you, have they? Oh, sorry if that's too personal. I haven't even introduced myself yet. My name is Hiro Kageyama. And you are...?

[Voice]

[ex_restoring6]

[...] They have, but that was a while ago. I mean, I'm all okay now.

[A faint chuckle.] Naoki Kashima. It's nice to meet you, Hiro.
