056. voice | action, loss start!

[foolreversed]

[needed your ears today Paradisa? Well sorry, because you're probably not gonna get much use out of them after that incredibly shrill whistle that just got blown over the journal. (Not that the person blowing it even notices the open journal there)

A familiar voice starts:]

Attention! I don't know who- or even where -you are but I hope you know there are grave punishments for kidnapping an officer of the law! And on his birthday no less too! [then his voice loses some of that tough cop bravado he'd been trying to keep going for it] Seriously, my birthday really?! Either this was planned too well or I have the worst timing in the world...

[and then he starts looking around and muttering to himself, the sound of his boots mixing with his voice] Man, are there even any cameras in this dump? Talk about some lousy kidnappers... they even let me keep my gun. [and then he tests the door] Oh are you serious! The door isn't even locked! This is the worst kidnapping ever!

[that's when a possibility dawns on him] ...Heeeeey, wait a minute this isn't just more hazing is it?! Oh come on guys, I've been on the force for several months now, that's just uncalled for!

[well... nothing else to do now but go exploring he guesses.

For anyone walking around the castle you might find yourself being stopped and questioned by a much younger Adachi, clad in a police uniform and a little more cleaned up than usual]

(ooc: loss details here!)

Action

[tapshoetomove]

[Luke is working on a puzzle book in the library, before he looks up and spots Adachi in uniform.]

Hello, Mr. Policeman!

[foolreversed]

[OH BOY IT'S A LITTLE KID]

Well hey there, kiddo!

[.........AND IT'S A LITTLE BOY WHO MIGHT'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED TOO OH NO]

H-Hey, are your parents around?

[tapshoetomove]

No.

[He sounds a little annoyed too.]

I haven't seen them for a while now.

Dictated forever

[whichwayyoulean]

[Buddy you sound weird]

Having a case of amnesia there, Adachi?

[foolreversed]

[yeah guess who hasn't noticed the book's been following him]

H-Huh!? Who said that?! How do you know my name?

[whichwayyoulean]

[King of observation, this one]

I'llll take that as a yes. I'm the Once-ler and you already live here but apparently you've hit your head too hard or something.

[luxe_can_kill]

[Still exploring the castle, Mitsuru walks around the castle halls. Turning a corner, she sees Adachi.]

[She greeted him with a graceful, greeting nod as she passes by him. A police officer too? This place sure has a lot of people from different walks of life...]

[foolreversed]

[When Adachi sees her he pauses.

Oh... wow, talk about a knock out. This... wasn't the type of person he was expecting to see here.

His face turns a little pink and he looks incredibly awkward/tongue tied before he nods back.

...W-Wait a sec!

Turns around before she's gone]

U-Um, e-excuse me, ma'am?

[luxe_can_kill]

[When she heard the man call to her, Mitsuru stopped walking to turn her attention at the police officer]

Yes?

Dictated [and I hope this is okay otherwise I'll delete *n*;;]

[solowingpixy]

[He's just minding his own business in the room and glowers at the journal a little when there's that whistle, but hearing that voice then he is -internally cringing-. If only you could see his face right now, because you sound exactly like someone he knows, Adachi. He's got a bit of a dreading tone to his voice when he finally speaks.]

... Crow 3?

IT'S OKAY!! :>

[foolreversed]

Huh?

Argh, it's one of those voices again! Is this one coming from that weird book too?!

yey! *n*

[solowingpixy]

[Well, not seeing a negative reaction towards him, himself was at least a decent sign. But he didn't exactly deny being said person either.]

That 'weird book' is a communication device and yes, you can hear me through it. You better get used to it now, kid.

[wagers]

Why this.

[foolreversed]

Huh?

Why what?

[wagers]

Why are you acting like a big dumb?

[Dictated]

[therealrisette]

[Okay, that definitely sounds like...]

Senpai?!

[There's excitement in her voice for a moment. But no... an officer of the law? Come to think of it, his voice sounds different from Senpai's. And a bit older. But younger than it should?

The word "kidnapping" finally jostles the memory loose. No... it can't be him...]

Y-you're supposed to be in jail!!!

[She just blurts it out. No other thought registers, no rational explanation for why Adachi would be here in Paradisa acting like some rookie cop. Just the overwhelming wrongness from hearing that sick bastard running around free!]

{ooc: Finally, they meet! (Over journal. Again.) And this time Adachi probably has no clue who Rise is. xD}

[foolreversed]

[he's gotten used to the journal a... little now. You know after shooting at it and all. So he knows where the voice is coming from. But what it says next... leaves him in complete shock.]

W-What!?

[therealrisette]

Don't think you can just play dumb with me! You're. supposed. to be. in jail. Y'know. For the murders?

[Yeah, she's really fired up now.

Rationality finally pecks at the back of her head for a moment and she realizes that if he's here, then the castle brought him here. Oh, great...]

[hard_talker]

Uhhhh, Adachi? ... Did you hit your head on something, man?

[castle no whyyyy]

[foolreversed]

[oh geez more people who know his name.]

Apparently I must've- a hallucination brought about by head injury is starting to look like the only way to describe this mess!!

[hard_talker]

Yeeeeeah, no, there's another explanation, but you're not gonna believe it. Anyone mentioned the words "magic castle" to you yet?

dictated

[selfless]

A...Adachi? [bro what's up........ /squints]

[foolreversed]

Geez do all of you know my name or something?

action!

[adorbs]

[Nanako was just walking down to the kitchen this fine day... It's been a little hard settling back into Paradisa life. It's weird not to have school, and piano lessons, and just a schedule. So she's been a little aimless the last few days.

However! She's jolted out of her thoughts when she hears and sees a familiar person up ahead of her. Ah... Mr. Adachi? He's still here? But he seems kinda different... or at least, louder. She's unsure exactly what to say to him, but she decides to just... go for it. She walks up tentatively, with her hands folded in front of her]

M-Mr. Adachi?

[foolreversed]

[oh boy! Someone who recognizes him in person instead of over a book this time! ....but it's not any less weirder]

Um... h-hi little girl! Do you need help with something?
