001: arrival
{ action }
[ The first time he can be found is as he's wandering around, alternating between staring hard at the pamphlet... and the- ...the phone. He's been kidnapped to a surprisingly normal place and they gave him money and an effin phone.
And jewelry.
Jewelry needed to go between the cities.
They want him to find a job.
They're forcing him to stay here, but want him to be comfortable.
What the hell, man...? ]
The hell kind've kidnappers are these?!
[ Of course, the most important thing is whether or not a certain group of people are here. He's fidgeting with the phone, briefly resuming his hard staring at the phone and the pamphlet. Seriously, though, it's even explaining how to use this thing!!! Augh... It honestly feels like an insult to be kidnapped and then given all this shit...
YOU'RE TRAPPED BUT IT'S FINE, BECAUSE WE'RE GIVING YOU FREE SHIT TO MAKE UP FOR IT...??
Maybe this is just some crazy ass, overly realistic kind of dream. It damn sure can't be the Metaverse, right...? It can't be someone's cognitive view of the world, right...? (First of all, who the hell would it belong to...)
So, he can be found honestly glaring at the phone. Initially he's not even sure what to say over the thing... ]
{ audio }
[ But, after a heavy sigh, he finally does send a message over the thing. He's just going to go for the quickest way to get in touch with his friends: ]
So, uh...
[ SHIT... HE WAS LESS READY THAN HE ANTICIPATED. Quiet, deep breath... This is fine... ]
I'm lookin' for anybody who knows about the Phantom Thieves. Lemme know if you're hearin' this. I'm still learnin' how to use this thing, but there's a private option right...?
[ ...anyway, he's just gonna go ahead and leave it at this... ]
no subject
...which he'd take at this point, because it'd mean he was here, too (not that he'd ever say something like that).
A-anyway, he's actually just going to flash a small grin for now. ] Hey, it made it easier for me to be found, didn't it? Not like you can cheat and use your Oracle powers to hunt anyone down anymore...
[ ...As much as he'd love that, because it'd mean the Metaverse existed here. Sigh. ] Man, it's great to see you, though...
[ And he's half-muttering the rest, his face a bit tense. ] Too bad I can't say that about everyone I've seen here, so far...
[ Because... one just brings way too many complicated feelings with him. Not that it isn't great he gets another chance a life here, but... is he even going to take advantage of that?? Or is he just going to wind up doing some shady shit here, too? Goddamn it, he wishes it was as simple as knocking some sense into the guy--
... well that could work, right? It worked with people's hearts, right? And their final encounter with Akechi did involve beating the crap out of him. Hmmm... ]
no subject
[But she really is glad to see him.]
Yeah, I wonder how many of us will end up here. You must have spoken to Akechi, I take it.
.... I may have stirred the pot a little...
no subject
...and of course she's immediately guessing he's talking about that guy. There's a quiet sigh as he briefly rubs a hand against the back of his neck. His expression drops as he looks away for a moment. ]
... If you just stirred, I probably dumped the entire thing over.
[ But... honestly? He'd rather take some time to get a firm grasp on this new situation. Just for now. He'll figure out his feelings on Akechi later. Hell, the whole group (of... those here right now, anyway) probably needs to have a meeting on how they plan to deal with the guy being alive and well...
For now, he's frowning and releasing a frustrated sigh. ] Say, uh...
[ His stomach is growling loudly and he presses a hand to it with an almost defeated look... ] ...any chance you've seen a decent place to eat around here? I feel like I haven't eaten in at least two days...
no subject
[Because she already feels a little bad for making matters worse, but this was Ryuji.... She had to wonder how he made it worse.
... But that passed quickly upon his next question, making her chuckle lightly.]
I'm... not all that familiar with Genessia City, but I'm sure we could find something. I think I saw a cafe nearby?
no subject
[ He could've just wait until the group's together to come out with that one, but... no point outright hiding anything, when he'd already brought up as much as he did, right?
...Well, anyway.
A groan-filled sigh is given, but he brightens up at the mention of a cafe, even grinning a little. ] Doubt it'll be anything like Leblanc... but, hey! Why not?
[ Just because he doesn't like coffee, doesn't mean he can't try other stuff in this new place... ] If you're okay with it, anyway...
no subject
[She can't help but blurt that out in her shock at hearing he told him everything. She realized where they were though and lowered her voice again, trying to seek out the right words to say. She'd told Akechi vague events to keep from really hammering in the last nail... To spare Akechi at least a little bit...
He was kind of a douche, but under different circumstances, he could have be their friend... They could have teamed up legitimately and taken down Shido together. He did a lot of unforgivable stuff, but he didn't deserve to go down the way he did.
Here Futaba thought she messed up with not setting on the privacy settings -- it completely slipped her mind -- but this.... They really did make things all that more worse, didn't they...? She was quiet for a while, hand covering her mouth while she was lost in thought. How was Akechi coping right now if he knew...? She... actually felt bad for him.
Right... The cafe...]
It's... this way.
[She finally said something, starting towards the cafe that she saw on her way there. Normally she'd probably feel a bit uneasy with so many people around, but she was too lost in thought to pay attention to it.]
