( 1ST TRAGEDY ) video

FUUUWEEEH!

[ ... Will be the first thing anybody hears. In a second, a face will come to light on the videophone. The picture is visibly shaking, and there stands a tiny girl looking beyond disheveled. For a moment she remains whining to herself until she takes a few breaths and steadies her hands, eyes cast downward with tears. ]

I don't understand... this is a videophone? So everyone can see my face? I'm so sorry, just let me gather myself..

[ She sniffles deeply. ]

I think I'm okay now, I'm really sorry! Um.. I just woke up here. I think it's pretty obvious that I'm new. My name is Roma Hoito, and I have this pamphlet. I flipped through it a little, but I don't really understand what I'm supposed to do.

[ And within an instance, she's throwing her head back and wailing in agony. Sorry, it's probably an ugly sight. ]

I don't understand! How will I live? Am I going to be living on the streets?! HueHHHHH!! I suck at everything! I'm sorry! Please help me!

[ And the feed cuts out for now. Nobody will be able to see the expression on her face drop and twist into a sinister sneer, not caring to wipe away the tears. How boring. After she gets things all sorted out, she'd have to go looking for a meal. ]

No, you won't live on the streets. [Yukiko appears on the screen, a small but calming smile on her face. She was going to do her best to help.]

Please don't panic, I'm here to help you with a place you can stay until you get settled.

[ Ah... once Yukiko appears on the screen, Roma's expression naturally molds back into one of distress. She's been kidnapped after all, she needs to look upset about it. ]

I'm sorry.. it's just, nothing like this has ever happened to me before... [ a shaky breath. ] Not that it's normal to be a kidnapee or anything!

Can you really help me, though? I could never pull off being homeless!

Will I have to live in a hotel forever? What if I run out of money!

[ Yes, they definitely are. ]

Get a job. We all have to. #JobSearch
There's an Employment Building somewhere.

I don't think this has really happened to anyone before, so I can understand it.

[She nodded slightly.]

I should be able to, I wouldn't have opened an inn if I couldn't. New arrivals get a discount for the first few days at least.
