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!

Dictated forever

[whichwayyoulean]

[Buddy you sound weird]

Having a case of amnesia there, Adachi?

[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?

[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]

[Okay he's got his gun out now and is looking around warily.]

Oh really? Sorry, I have a hard time believing that.

[pause]

So where's your voice coming from anyway?

[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?

[whichwayyoulean]

Well you would, what with the crazy amnesia and all.

There's a book somewhere nearby. Magic journals: super fun.

[foolreversed]

Uh well... [wow it's a little hard to concentrate] Sorry, but do you know where I am? I suspect this was a kidnapping, but nothing really adds up...

[foolreversed]

[While he does do magic tricks in his spare time he's pretty much 100% sure real magic doesn't exist]

"Magic journals", huh? Ha, that's a good one. You really expect me to believe th-

[but as he turns around... there's a book right there. Yeah he's shocked and pointing his gun at it now.]

[whichwayyoulean]

Judging by the sudden silence, you found it. Good job.

[He sighs, god Adachi why do you have to go and have an awkward amnesia thing, making friends all over again after he sucks so badly at it anyway]

It's how we all communicate in the castle.

[foolreversed]

[yeah um.

most of that fell on deaf ears.

because the instant the book talked and he realized it really was coming from the book Adachi got spooked

this is the sort of thing that come out of demon horror films

so uh you know what?

that plus a trigger happy rookie who hasn't gotten to use his firearm outside of practice yet?

yeah um.

adachi may have just kinda sorta maybe....

shot at it.

enjoy your loud bang]

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]

Communication device, demon book after my soul, same thing.

[well at least he isn't going to shoot this time. He just glares at it, as if it's the root cause of this rotten birthday he's been having]

And hey, don't call me a kid! I'm a trained officer you know!

[solowingpixy]

If you don't want to be called a kid, then stop actin' like one.

And you better learn now to accept that your 'trained officer' status holds no meaning here.

[foolreversed]

I'm not acting like a kid!

And sorry, but the police have meaning everywhere.

[solowingpixy]

Acting defensive, being loud and blowing a whistle for no good reason? Sounds like typical kid behavior to me.

Alright then, officer, tell me this. Who do you report to in a castle that has no actual police force nor does it have the same laws that you do?

[luxe_can_kill]

[He must be new... At least there's someone she could relate to in a way]

I see you are a new resident like myself. However, do not be alarmed. I can assure you that you have not been kidnapped. As to where you are might be difficult to believe...

[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]

...

...Man you're kind of an asshole, you know that?

[although he... does not want to consider that... there's no police here at all. so he's not even going to acknowledge that question haha ;;]

What what was that you called me, by the way?
