⌈ FIRST NIGHT ⌋ ♘ ⌊ VIDEO ⌉

[His arrival a few days ago had been less than unsightly considering one minute he was holding a bloody and injured Kaito and the next he was transported to a place like this. He'd searched for hours for his injured teammate and it wasn't until dawn had arrived that he slowly came to terms with his new circumstances. He sensed them - Purebloods. It wasn't until he got a better grasp of this place that Zero decided to use the small communication device.

The recording turned on showing a stiff looking hunter whose lips thinned into a grim line.]

The rules of the Association still apply.

[And with that simple sentence, the Hunter cemented his stance.]

Well now, that sounds a little ominous.

Just what 'Association' might this be?

[leashed_hunter]

[If he didn't know the organization then it was obvious their rules did not apply to him. In that case, he probably wasn't someone from his world.]

One from my world. [An answer of sorts.]

[Audio]

[beautifulmidboss]

Ahh... I am assuming the rest of us need not concern ourselves another world's rules, then?

[Not that he necessarily intended to obey said rules, regardless.]

There is a way you can make sure these video phones only broadcast to certain people. You may wish to use that, next time, and save yourself the questions.

[leashed_hunter]

You're not bound to something you haven't agreed to.

[A look.]

What else do they do?

[Audio]

[beautifulmidboss]

That is reassuring.

[A small hm, as he thought to himself.]

Well as I said, you can filter broadcasts so that only certain people can see them. You can also encrypt broadcasts so that others cannot tell who the original broadcaster was...I'm sure you've seen that the video phones can broadcast video, audio and text.

They are quite intricate little devices, really. Resilient, as well. Mine survived falling from a rather large building with only a few cracks.

[leashed_hunter]

I see.

[The features were familiar to him, though he'd need to play with it to figure out how to use them properly. Either way, it didn't really matter. Zero wasn't prone to this kind of communication, if any.]

What happens if it breaks? Where do we get a new one?
