[What the hell does it mean by real? What the hell does it mean by job!? He wants to start shaking. He wants to start screaming. He wants to sta- continue drinking. This is not right. This is not right. WHY??!?!?

[The video pops on to show Kurt, who is a little angry and peeved. He's also holding up one of those nifty flyers at the Bay from this Harry Dresden fellow.]

Are these up to date? Is there no way out of here? I can't be stuck here. This is the worst time in the absolute infinity of time to be fucking stuck somewhere.

Don't even try to speak to me unless you have one of these bloody necklaces.

[He holds up his own gold necklace with a bunch of little purple stones sprinkled over it. It's not really a full proof way of telling if these people are human or not, but it's all he's got to go on right now. Until he's out of here.]

Noooope, sounds like we're stuck here.

Sorry.

[Except, he really doesn't look sorry. At all.]

[He sure doesn't see any necklace, buddy!]

And I should trust your word, because-? I still want to see that necklace.

[You mean the jewel in his chest doesn't count? Nevertheless, he gives an almost poisonous glare down the feed.]

[...which is replaced almost instantly as he faked a bored smile, holding up a necklace embedded with a green stone. When he speaks, his tone is dripping with sarcasm.]

Alright, alright~ Jeeze, what a ray of sunshine you are.

[Oh well. He was sick of hoping people would trust him, anyway.

He'd given up on that when he betrayed his teammates.]

[Oh please. Kurt trusts no one. Don't weight your merit with this guy.

Still, he narrows his eyes at this other guy and frowns.]

I'm going to assume that people have at least tried looking for a way out. Do you know how we got here?

[Zelos did not exactly trust anyone, either. Still, weighing his merit on whether or not people trusted him was probably not something he was going to get rid of any time soon.]

Naahhh, sounds like too much work to me.

I think I can guess? But seriously, throw me a line here, what's the last thing you remember before you woke up?

[Video]

[codenametrojan]

Too much work!?

[Calm. Calm. It's okay. Calm. Kurt takes a deep breath.]

I was in the middle of being arrested, if you must know.

[Video]

[redsnowangel]

Yuuuup, too much work.

[Zelos stretches as he listens to Kurt's story, before replying - tone dripping with sarcasm: ]

Wow, sucks to be you.

Bet you're glad you're out of that mess, right?

[On the account that he was basically an immortal, talking baby, Koenma wasn't inclined to do a video conference with this stranger.]

I regret to inform you, that to our knowledge, everything you've been give is true.

[codenametrojan]

To your knowledge. How can I trust you? How can I trust any of you?

[Panic attack? Check.]
