Hello?
[ The screen fades in slowly and the first thing that comes to clarity is a gray-haired teenager. Behind him is the recognizable almost gaudy style of the hotel. The teenager stares for several moments before speaking: ]
Ah. There it is.
[ And that's that. Now he's staring again, with his light gray eyes, almost waiting as if you will answer him immediately--at least for a few more moments. ]
The travel brochure says we're in Prospero Island in America. How did we get here? This doesn't seem like a school trip.
[ He is almost emotionless--stoic--his words lacking any trace of what he's feeling or thinking. ]
I don't remember boarding a plane.
[ Something stirs behind him, in the bed. Rather, someone. The teenager hears it and turns around, watching as a black-haired girl slowly sits up from the bed. She looks at the boy, looking rather surprised. ]
Huh? Wha-? ... Where am I? Who are yo--oh, I remember you. What are you doing here?
Ah. [ Souji looks back to the phone then to the girl. ]
We're on Prospero Island. I woke up earlier and was in this room with you.
[ The girl however is staring at the phone--at the feed, realizing something unscrupulous may have just occurred. While she was asleep. She cuts him a sharp glance. ]
What do you mean by that? You just happened to wake up here with me?
[ The boy, unabashed: ] Yeah. [ A very minor pause before continuing: ] If you want to use the shower, the bathroom is behind this table...
I think someone must have kidnapped us.
[ The feed cuts off. ]
[ OOC: Dual intro! Both Souji Seta and/or Yukiko Amagi will respond accordingly. ]

Had to be pretty damn desperate to kidnap a bunch of kids from somewhere like Inaba.
[video]
Kanji-kun! [ Without hesitation. Why that may even bit a hint of relief behind her voice. ] You're here too?
[ Wait, that was a dumb question. Sheepish, her gaze travels from the phone to the floor. ]
S-Sorry. That's a dumb question.
[video]
Don't worry about it too much, Amagi-senpai. Pretty sure I asked dumber questions when I first got here. You alright?
[video]
[ Doesn't that sound so suspicious? ]
Oh! [ Realizing that she shouldn't give such a poor impression of Souji, she shakes her head. ] I'm relieved I woke up with someone familiar. It would have been stranger waking up with a stranger and scarier waking up on my own. I'm grateful you're here as well.
[ Back to feeling ashamed with that confession though. ]
I'm sorry. I shouldn't be so selfish.
[video]
Although it does eventually come to. ]
W-whoa, wait. You two didn't---
[ Oh, okay. That's kind of a relief. Even if it's not really any of his business but, you never know about people! Besides, he's never seen this guy around before. Can't exactly trust him yet. Hell, he might have been the one that kidnapped them. ...But that doesn't really make any sense either. Fff, why is this stuff so hard on his brain? ]
Hey, stop apologizing for stuff that ain't your fault. I probably would've felt the same way if I wasn't already used to waking up in strange places.
[ Wow, way to incriminate yourself some more Kanji. ]
[video]
[ Oh boy, there goes her cheeks flaring up. Kanji-kun, how can you even insinuate such a thing? ;w; Yukiko is such a pure girl
until Souji jacks his #SWAG up to eleven!! ]Kanji-kun, you do know if you ever needed a place to stay... [ She sort of owns an inn and could help out. ] Even during the busy holidays, I could set aside a place for you anytime.
[ Because that's what people in their social link do. ]
How long have you been here?
[video]
It ain't like that. Everything's fine at home, I just, uh... [ Actually, he'd rather not get into it. This has already gone totally awkward which may or may not be easily indicated by how much he'd been rubbing his neck. ] I appreciate the concern, though. Thanks.
[ How long... man, he hasn't even been keeping track, really. ]
Uhm, about a week? I think. It's really hard to tell. Don't think I've been sleeping much at all, not that it's that unusual for me anyways. [ Because what is staying up all hours of the night. ]
...Ah, right. You might not want to go outside after dark. Well, more specifically, after midnight. There's... weird things out there. [ Very descriptive, Kanji. ]
[video]
So you've been here for a week and you haven't been sleeping well? Do you think it's cause of jet lag or just because of this weird circumstance? I don't think I'll be able to sleep well here at all.
[ After dark? After midnight? ]
Like.. weird people?
[video]
[ Ah, yeah. He should probably explain this a little better consider he still can't really believe. ]
...I know this is going to sound crazy, but... there's monsters. They kind of just roam the streets for that single hour, which... is like an extra hour in the day?
[ Yeah, she isn't going to believe any of this, is she? ]
I don't really get it, I only bothered going out in it one night 'cuz some punk challenged me to a fight.
...didn't even show up, the coward.
[video]
[ While her tone is one of slight disbelief, why would she question that? Monsters aren't real, but if Kanji-kun says there are some, then that means she should stay indoors.
On the other hand, she is a dumb teenager. ]
I'll have to see for myself. [ And dumb teenagers do dumb things. ] Are you already fighting in this place..? You really shouldn't, Kanji-kun.
[video]
[ Nope, not giving her a choice. He'll stalk her if he has to! No not really just saying. ]
Hey, it ain't my fault. He was running his mouth, saying how I should remember him because apparently he was some gang leader in Inaba. I'm pretty sure I'd remember a creep like that. [ Hey Yukiko, do you know any creeps? ^_^ ]
[video]
A gang leader? [ She's not sure she wants to hear about those sort of things about home. ] You shouldn't call people names like that....
[video]
T'ch, doesn't matter. I'm sure he was bluffing. If I ever see him again, though... [ Convenient trailing off! Seriously Kanji you should know better than to talk about these sorts of things in front of pure and innocent girls. ]
Oh, and before I forget. [ Because Yukiko is actually a good student unlike him. ] You're kind of expected to go to school here. 'unno what the point is, though.

[ Souji is also wearing his school uniform in his own unique way. But seriously, bleach-blonde hair, scar above the temple? What next? Tattoos!? ]
Ah. I don't know you.
[ video ]
[ It's not like he goes to class that often, but Kanji does sort of stalk around the town looking for
ways to prove his manlinesstrouble. And he's pretty sure he hasn't seen this guy before! ]Seems like you know Amagi-senpai. You two friendly? [ Totally not trying to imply anything nope... ]
[ video ]
[ HEY MISTER RUFFIAN DOESN'T THAT NAME SOUND FAMILIAR? THAT'S RIGHT HIS UNCLE'S A FREAKING COP ]
Amagi-san and I are in the same class.
[ A beat. ]
Did you know her family manages an Inn?
[ video ]
That cop, huh? Yeah, I've talked to him a few times. [ More like every other week ahahaha... ]
Guess that makes you my senpai, then. I'm Kanji Tatsumi.
And yeah, kinda impossible to not know that when you've lived in Inaba for a while. They come by our textile shop pretty often.
[ video ]
Senpai... Okay, Kanji-kun.
I didn't know your family runs a textile shop.
[ video ]
[ Totally nothing wrong with that okay.
Even if that stare is kinda making him want to say something. ]
[ video ]
[ There's not an ounce of a condescending tone in his voice. Seriously. ]
[ video ]
Uh, yeah. Learned when I was young.
[ at least he doesn't have to mention the cute shit... ]
[ video ]
That's nice to help out your family.
[ And then the smile is gone. ]
So is it true? Monsters come out at night?
[ video ]
Yeah, I can understand if you ain't really willing to believe it. I wasn't either. But I guess seeing is believing.
