[With no why or how he got here and the last thing he remembered a bit fuzzy, Yosuke had stumbled around asking random passerby for information. Did it help? Not in the least. In fact, it only made him even more confused. But, that's why he just put on that fake smile of his and went along being his obnoxious self to only further hide his nervousness. After moving from place to place for a good while, some time in the afternoon you'll find the teen sitting down against one of the hotel's walls. He has his knees bent and pressed to his chest rather lazily, his hands behind his head, and his eyes closed.]

Man... just where the hell am I?

[video/audio; 7:00 PM]

[Some later time, at night, the loud sound of a trash can rolling to and fro can be heard in Prospero's evening glow. The person inside of the trash can? One Yosuke Hanamura. At first, he had just been spacing out and trying to run back to the hotel. Somewhere between a turn and a skip, he collided with and subsequently got stuck inside of a trash can. A lucky (?) turn of events, however, was that his device had been knocked from his pocket and now lays there on the ground getting a good amount of video for the rest of Prospero to see. Loud yells, which can at times be made out as 'Help!' and 'I'm stuck!' strike the audio feature of the device, albeit muffled by the trash can. C'mon, Prospero. Help a dork out.]

[action; 12:00 AM]

[Why yes, that is in fact Yosuke Hanamura running through the streets of Prospero with what can only be described as a face of utter horror. What had started out as basic curiosity toward the coffins standing up around Prospero has now turned into a full out chase by two low level Shadows. Are there tears from Yosuke's eyes? Yup. Two, one in each eye in fact. With no idea what is going on, and feeling like he's running for his very life, Yosuke lets out a scream that could damn well be heard by the majority of Prosero.]

GAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!! I DON'T WANNA DIEEEEEEEEE!!!!

...So people are also considered garbage.

[action|7 PM]

[duuuuuuude]

[Well, Yosuke is. Considering he's still rolling around in the trash can trying to get out. A few bangs and a yell of 'Could someone let me out of this thing?!' later...]

[breatheinthefog]

*Congratulations, you poor soul. A thirteen-year-old kid with pale skin and creepy dilated eyes has just picked up the garbage can, turned it upside down, and shaken you out of it.*

...

[duuuuuuude]

[Plop goes the Yosuke, right onto his behind.]

Agh! ...I think I cracked my butt...

[Which he says thinking that he's alone, rubbing at his rear end until his eyes look up at... a thirteen year old girl... who just lifted him and the trash can... and got him out of it...]

What the...

[breatheinthefog]

*Kaoru tosses the garbage can to the side, not caring about the mess flung everywhere.*

You're new.

[duuuuuuude]

[Yosuke, on the other hand, does care about the mess flung everywhere... and the trash can being so easily flung.]

How the heck did you do that?! Girls don't usually throw trash cans like wads of paper y'know!

[breatheinthefog]

*Shrug.* I picked it up and threw it. You were making a scene anyway, so it doesn't matter.

[duuuuuuude]

...Y-Yeah, I guess that was pretty lame...

[Okay so finally, Yosuke gets himself to a full stand.]

Still... how did you do that?

[breatheinthefog]

I just did. *B|* Why were you in the can? That's for garbage, isn't it?

[duuuuuuude]

[Oh geez of course he has to answer to this...]

It's because this place is so confusing. I was just running around, trying to find out what was going on...and the next thing I know, I'm in the trash can.

...keywords surprisingly convenient

[breatheinthefog]

...

[Action]

[duuuuuuude]

H-Hey! Don't look at me like that! I just fell! Everyone falls!

[breatheinthefog]

*shrug* Okay. ...You have a sandwich wrapper in your hair.

[duuuuuuude]

[Which he is promptly yanking out of his hair and throwing to the ground.]

Er... that was pretty lame too, wasn't it...

[breatheinthefog]

*"Lame". John uses that word, too. Hm.*

I suppose.

*Kaoru is incompatible with the notion of tact.*

[duuuuuuude]

[Now Yosuke's just going to rub the back of his head and laugh nervously. He can't really think of how to respond to that so he'll just cover that up through laughter.]

[breatheinthefog]

You are new.

[duuuuuuude]

I can't remember being here before.. so yeah, I guess I am.

[breatheinthefog]

It's a mysterious place. What do you know?

[duuuuuuude]

['I know the trash cans are vicious murderers!']

I know jack.

[breatheinthefog]

Your contact list comprises the names of others who were abducted. All others on this island are civilians and generally pointless.

[duuuuuuude]

My contact list?

[Oh, perfect time to mention that Yosuke still hasn't noticed the device fell out of his pocket.]

[breatheinthefog]

*points at the phone B|* Pick that up.

[duuuuuuude]

[> Your Quirkiness has increased!]

Ah!

[Okay so now he quickly scrambles to pick it up, and finally ends up seeing what she meant by 'contact list.']

...Oh! This should help a ton!

[Are you prepared to become Yosuke's surrogate Narukami, Kaoru?]

[breatheinthefog]

Yes. Everyone on the list is a captive. All here for presumably the same reason.
