01; voice/action because wandering around

[worstdisguise]

[There's a young lady speaking. She doesn't seem very sure of herself or, well, anything right now. She's also rather quiet because who wants to be heard talking to themselves if this fails?]

All right...I'm not sure if this is working, but if it is - hello, my name is Chizuru Yukimura. I have just arrived and...to be entirely honest, this all seems like a strange dream. It seems I've been brought to Sigyn's house, and...if anyone sees people by the name of--

[Insert the list of her Shinsengumi buddies, as well as Sen's name, here]

--- please let me know, they are my dear friends from home. I am not sure if I will be able to reply immediately, as I'm still getting used to using this device, so please bear with me. Thank you in advance.

[After deactivating the...the thing...Chizuru sighs, straightens up, and starts wandering around - within Sigyn House, outside the house, so on. Care to run into her?]

[Guess who's also been wandering around inside Sigyn! And the second she catches sight of a certain girl...]

Chizuru-chan! [In moments, she's caught up to her, smiling widely.] What a surprise!

Re: action

[worstdisguise]

[Chizuru knows this voice! This person running up to her, it can only be--]

O-Sen-chan!

[She is so happy you don't even know.] It certainly is! Still, I'm glad to see you.

[congenial]

As am I!

[Her smile only grows wider, equally glad to see her friend here. (...And seemingly safe and sound!)

...Speaking of, she should make sure Chizuru is all right, shouldn't she]

You've just arrived as well then? How are you?

[worstdisguise]

Yes, I have just arrived. I'm all right, how are you?

[She needs to make sure her friend is okay too, after all!]

[congenial]

I'm quite well, thank you. I've been taking a look at this city and it's really quite fascinating!

But what of the gentlemen you live with? Have you been brought here all by yourself? [Yeah, she didn't hear a word of Chizuru's initial message, whoops.]

[worstdisguise]

It is, it really is...though it certainly doesn't seem anything like home, does it?

[...oboy. Concerned Chizuru is now concerned.] No, I haven't heard from them...I hope they're all right, whether they are here or not.

action!

[stungun]

--Hm? Did you say something?

action!

[worstdisguise]

[! ALERT!]

A-ah, I was...I was testing the bracelet they gave me...

[And it is the truth, too. :T]

action;

[sandanzuki]

[It's probably of little surprise that Okita didn't waste much time to go exploring after he got the rundown. That includes use of the bracelet, but he feels it much easier to go looking around on his own.]

[There were so many things that could happen, but his absolute first priority was to find the Shinsengumi -- be it the commander, the captains, the soliders -- and of course, Chizuru. It's a bit unnerving, since he was just about to head straight into a battle. He's in the mindset of war and whatever is happening right now is definitely not that.]

[But there's little denying Chizuru's figure when he spots her. But rather than approach her playfully, ready to tease as he normally would, he's quite serious as he calls out to her from a few feet away.]

Chizuru-chaaaan! [It's authoritative, much as if he'd call after her while she was out patrolling with him.]

action;

[worstdisguise]

Y-yes sir!

[--old habits die hard, don't they, Chizuru? She looks over to where she heard Okita-san's voice and trots over. She's relieved to see her friend here, but he's obviously concerned about something...]

action;

[sandanzuki]

[There's a slight relief that's hidden behind his tense expression. At the very least, Chizuru was here. A familiar face and someone who generally would listen to him if need be. His guard is definitely up right now.]

How long have you been here? [There's no indication of relief or concern in his tone, however. He is all business after that brief reprieve, eying the area around him cautiously.]

action;

[worstdisguise]

Only a few minutes. How long have you been here?

action;

[sandanzuki]

Since earlier today. [He was investigating.] Have you seen anyone else so far?

[repulsors]

[ huh. kind of feels like he's looking at a mouse. or something like that. maybe? a puppy. this is weird. ]

Yeah, hate to break it to you, but it's not a dream. No idea who your pals are, though. Good luck finding them.

video.

[worstdisguise]

[Definitely a puppy. :|]

Thank you very much for telling me, sir.

[voice]

[agoodwife]

If your friends are here, it's more than likely that they'll hear this broadcast.

[voice]

[worstdisguise]

I certainly hope they do. These devices aren't like anything from home...

[voice]

[agoodwife]

They are not out of the realm of possibility for my world.

[voice]

[worstdisguise]

Ah - they aren't?

[Chizuru sounds confused and maybe a little amazed.]

That's very different from where I'm from...

[voice]

[agoodwife]

We've been making rapid progressions in the field of communications. While we don't have anything quite like these bracelets, we have small, handheld devices that transmit both sound and picture across large distances. Something like this will be possible within the next twenty years, I imagine.

[wristbands]

Huh... I can't say I've heard of any of those people, sorry. But hey, don't let that get you down! I'm sure you'll run into one of them sooner or later.

[worstdisguise]

[Everyone here is so kind...Chizuru smiles and nods at the stranger.]

Thank you very much - as it turns out, a friend of mine did indeed arrive here, and we will be living in the same house.

[wristbands]

Oh, that's great! You must have really good luck for something like that to happen! I mean, I've got a few friends from home here myself, but none of them ended up in my house.

video

[worstdisguise]

Eheh, I wouldn't know about that, but thank you just the same.

Oh my, they didn't? Well...well, I hope that if anyone from your home arrives again in the future, that at least one of them remains with you.

video

[wristbands]

I hope so! I mean, I've got no problem with it—nothing's stopping us from visiting, after all—but it's still... just kind of relieving to have someone familiar nearby, you know? Not that I'm saying you can't make new friends, but... still!
