1st Firefly - [Action/Accidental Video]

[presumablyalone]

[In the lake closest to the village, a boy can be seen laying half in the water and half on the grass, passed out.  Though it takes him a while, he finally opens his blue-purple eyes and looks around sleepily.]  Where....am I...?

[After a moment, Seto realizes he's in the water and hoists himself up all the way out of the water and sits on the grass.  Without knowing it, he accidentally presses a button on the journal so the video is turned on.  But his attention turns towards the sky]  How did I...get here?  I wonder if I fell off the dam...No, that can't be.  I never left that room with Crow... [A frown appears on his lips along with a long pause]

...Where did these clothes come from?  I don't remember changing....[His voice fades off as he starts to panic and look around desperately, feeling his chest where his locket had been]  W-Where's my locket?!  D-Did I drop it?!  Oh no... [He stares at the water but something catches his eye and quickly reaches to grab a white object that's lying in the grass.  He smiles and holds it to his chest]

 

Thank goodnes-- AH!  [He hunches over and cries out in pain as the wings on his back begin to flap slightly.  Wait...wings?]  N-No...I can't be dead...I was with Crow and I...I...[Once more, he looks up towards then sky, then scans the forest]  S-Sai?!  Where are you?!  I don't want to be alone again...please...someone answer...  [Tears begin to fall down his cheeks as his gaze falls to the ground]

[There's a tap on the journal as Terra makes sure he didn't accidentally turn off the voice function. Some of the New Feathers were adjusting well enough, but this kid already sounds like a nervous wreck.]

Don't worry. You're not alone.

[The tap and voice is enough to make Seto jump and look around quickly for the source of the voice but there's no one to be seen. Another ghost maybe..? At least this ghost person said he isn't alone, so that must mean survivors are near by!]

Thank goodness...um w-where are you?

[voice]

[erodingearth]

[...Oh. That's right, he probably hadn't seen the journal yet. Like him.]

There should be a book near you. We're talking through that.

[voice]

[presumablyalone]

A book... [Give him a second. He spots it and picks it up, where did this thing come from. It certainly isn't something he's seen before]

...You're not a robot..are you?

[voice]

[erodingearth]

Robot? No, I'm human. [Just ... with a pair of wings that shouldn't be there.] I think the better is -- are you okay?

[Voice]

[consultmybooks]

If you didn't fall off a dam, then you're probably not dead.

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

[Oh good lord, that random voice scared him. He takes a look around to find the voice but can't seem to see anyone...is this guy a ghost?]

T-Then how did I get here? And why do I have wings...?

Re: [Voice]

[consultmybooks]

Everyone has wings here.

They're what you might call compulsory.

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

Everyone? There are people here?? Or ghosts..?

[You're starting to sound like his grandfather] Compulsory..?

[ Oh. Oh no. This boy doesn't seem to be in the best of shape, and Ange doesn't like seeing him like this, whether he's a stranger or not. She can definitely tell he's new, though.

So she makes sure to reply to him, calmly and gently, almost like a mother. ]

It is all right, you are not alone.

[voice]

[presumablyalone]

[Even though the voice is comforting, it still startles him. He scans the forest but is unable to see anyone...is this girl like Sai? But she just said he's not alone so that means...]

I-I'm not..? Then...there are other people here?

[voice]

[fideliter.livejournal.com]

Yes, there are many of them. [ A pause. ] Could you describe your surroundings for me?

[voice]

[presumablyalone]

So...I'm close to the survivors?? [He pauses and looks around] All I see are trees...I'm sitting right next to a lake and there's a river that's connected to it.

[oh, great. More new ones. ...And this one seems particularly...emotional]

There's no reason to act like that.

[action]

[presumablyalone]

[He jumps at the sound of someone talking to him and looks around quickly, rubbing his eyes]

I-I...I'm sorry...

[action]

[forestpride.livejournal.com]

Are you injured?

[action]

[presumablyalone]

No...b-but these wings...they hurt..

[Voice]

[eidolon-soul.livejournal.com]

Hello? You're not dead or alone. I can help, if you let me.

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

[Though she reassures him that he's not dead or alone, he still jumps at the voice.]

P-Please help me...

[Voice]

[eidolon-soul.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I will. I see you're near one of the lakes. I'll start looking for you, okay?

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

[He nods, not knowing how this person even knows where he is or why they have to look for him if she already knows but he nods]

O-Okay...Thank you...

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

N-no, wait, don't cry! There are lots of people here, so it's okay!

[Voice] EMILLL wgohesbawrgi

[presumablyalone]

[Oh jeez, don't scare him like that, Emil. He quickly looks around to see where this voice is coming from, but oddly enough there's no one around. Wait...did this voice just say there are people here?]

T-There are people here...?

[Voice] :D

[knightofratatosk]

Yeah, there's a whole village. I know this place is strange, but you don't have to worry about being alone at all.

[Voice] 8DD~ <3

[presumablyalone]

A whole village...? S-So, does that mean I'm near the survivors?? [He sounds a bit more hopeful now]
