▌O N E ▌ video.

[as the recording begins, a shaky shot of Angelina is seen. it takes a few moments for Angelina to realize that the little starfish she had just found was doing... something.]

What a... strange little thing.

[her tone is rather dull and sullen, which is a complete contrast to how she usually is. after a moment, she glances away from the recording device to look at her surroundings.]

Where... where exactly is this place? G-Grell? ... Grell, y-you idiot! Where are you?!

[she pauses]

Sebastian? ...Ciel? ...anyone?

[silence is the only answer she receives at the moment, and she heaves a sigh. after a few moments, she mumbles to herself, unaware that the SFC is recording still.]




Alone again. It seems that I truly am cursed...

[voice]

Another new arrival?

{A pause, and then...]

My Lady? Try to stay calm... you have just arrived in a place called Vatheon.

[Ah, his head slightly leans, and a small twitch of his mouth brings about the faintest of smirks. So the Madam Red of London has found her venture here. Half the Ripper, or perhaps half of Jack. However it is, it is quite obvious that she is incomplete as she even calls for that Reaper; Grell.

Than even himself.

Well, Madam Red, he shan't answer to your call. It is nothing requested of him by the young Master, simple as that.

He pockets his communicator, and continues about his way.

Ah, miss, please calm down! You're safe right now, please don't panic.

[ Nodoka does her best to smile and not freak the lady out any more. ]

You're in a place called Vatheon. Um, i-it's an underwater city protected by a barrier!

[identity profile] notasiscon.livejournal.com 2010-07-26 01:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Not cursed, merely unfortunate.

[identity profile] pristinestar.livejournal.com 2010-07-26 04:00 pm (UTC)(link)
You'll hardly be alone in this place.

[identity profile] bindless.livejournal.com 2010-07-26 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ No.

Nononononono.

All he can see for a few moments is a rush of red. All he can see is a wave of blood covering his vision. He winces, actually recoils, when he hears taht voice. The video is more than enough to make him falter back in disgust, in confusion, in guilt and woe and everything else that is possible. His stomach churns and he can't get the alley off his mind. What she had said, what she had done - all of it. All of it.

Sebastian. Where was Sebastian - he couldn't handle this. Family or not she had - the things she had said. The things that had happened. ]


How are you alive...?

[voice]

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-26 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[oh! voices! there are voices coming from the device!]

Vatheon? Wh-Where on earth is that?

video。

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-26 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[oh. a video this time. and such a sweet looking face...]

An... underwater city protected by a barrier? Things like that exist?!

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-26 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I feel cursed. And "unfortunate" seems to be a light term.

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-26 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
The people I love the most aren't here with me.

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-26 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[The redhead freezes immediately at the voice. The image she sees on the SFC's screen isn't the image she was hoping to see. He seemed... disgusted to see her again?]

Ciel...?

[And his words were making no sense either. Despite being confused herself, her sullen mood deepened a bit. Perhaps this was punishment regarding her treatment towards him?]

I don't understand what you mean...

[identity profile] bindless.livejournal.com 2010-07-26 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[ There's hurt, betrayal, and everything imaginable in his eyes. He won't look directly at her, he won't make that mistake again, and he bites back a retort. He won't lose his cool - he's an Earl now, a high-position Earl who needs only himself. He doesn't need anyone else, certainly not... not... ]

He killed you. [ It's simple enough, and he's not in the mood to explain. Just to state the bold facts. ]

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-27 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
[She can't help but notice him not looking at her. It hurt her; not being able to look him in the eye again. But she knew that this was a consequence for doing what she did to him; for the words she spat to him when blinded with rage.




But the sentence that left his lips next floored her. "He killed you."

He?

...He.]


He... killed me...

[more of a reply than anything, and she's still trying to process the "killed" part in her head. she was still alive when she stopped herself from killing the boy. And he had stopped Sebastian before the butler even laid a claw on her... so why would He--]

[identity profile] pristinestar.livejournal.com 2010-07-27 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
...

Same case with some of us.

You'll be okay... It's either you'll get sent back in time, or they'll find themselves here too. It's one way or the other.

[voice]

[identity profile] wavesoakedlegs.livejournal.com 2010-07-27 08:21 am (UTC)(link)
It's... a little hard to explain, but I will try.

[A pause.]

Vatheon is an underwater city sealed underneath a protective bubble, of sorts. People are drawn here from many different times and places, without a choice in the matter.

[There's a sigh, and a little girl on the screen tilts her head to the side in disbelief.]

... This network begs to differ. What you are looking for is in your reach, all you must do is find and grasp it.

[identity profile] notasiscon.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 08:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Cursed" seems to me a too heavy term for simply being in this place.

video。

[identity profile] libraria.livejournal.com 2010-07-28 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, y-yes, it seems so. If you look around you might even see it!

[voice]

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-29 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
... I see. That explains my sudden arrival here...

[she pauses as well]

Though, an underwater city? I didn't know such things existed.

video。

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-29 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
[she glances around her before giving a reply]

I see... it still seems unreal. Have you been here long?

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-29 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Believe me, it's accurate enough.

[BUT ENOUGH ABOUT THAT...]

Never mind that, though. How exactly did I arrive here?

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-29 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
I doubt that's possible... since most of them are dead.

[Video]

[Angelina returns the look with a slightly confused stare]

So it seems...

What I'm looking for is in my reach? ...how are you so certain about that?

[Video Forever]

[identity profile] scarletonlooker.livejournal.com 2010-07-29 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
... That device in your hand. It is equipped with a prospectus of the... residents here. Earl Ciel Phantomhive and his butler Sebastian Michaelis, am I correct?

[Video Forever]

[identity profile] ripperwantstea.livejournal.com 2010-07-29 08:38 am (UTC)(link)
Of all residents?--

[she gives a surprised look now]

Y-Yes... Sebastian is here as well?

[ . . . ]


... are you an acquaintance of theirs?
