[It comes to no surprise that Kayneth had kept silent upon his arrival and spent some time gathering his bearings-- being plucked mid-battle along with the sudden loss of his Mystic Code was not quite the welcome befitting of one his rank, scouted by the gods-- aside. Being separated from Victory close at hand and his beloved was not doing his blood pressure any favors, either. Even so (if only for the moment) he will keep his silence about these ‘Gods’; for one, he’d require more proof then a mere letter(much too simple for his tastes. Reality Marble, perhaps? Even if he’d be willing to believe such a tale, Kayneth Archibald El-Melloi does not take kindly to those with the worrying ability in keeping him in the dark), and the main reason--for the first time in his life, he cannot access his magic circuits.

Outwardly calm only because he’d managed to push panic aside-- deal with later-- he turns his attention to the bracelet, pondering his next move; was he to announce his presence as he would have in any other situation, or not?

Finally activating the bracelet with little difficulty, he began addressing others ‘chosen’ by the gods.]

The ninth head of the Archibald house, Kayneth El-Melloi, seeks audience with those in the House of Odin.

[Weed out potential threats from those worthy from such a selection would be a difficult but much needed process. Loathe as he would in working with others, even he knew when his pride must suffer for his survival. Conflicting emotions aside, he is anxious on better knowing this ‘Asgard’, since--knowledge is half the battle. He frowned. ]

As for the others- I wish to compile our information on the situation at hand.

[You weren't the only one who was quiet. This guy has yet to make a post of his own on the network; he was far too busy investigating and keeping tabs on the network. By now he has pretty much accepted what has happened to him, but it's still a lot to swallow.]

I am of the House of Odin. What do you wish to talk about?

[vorsohydragyrum.livejournal.com]

[While this one was pleasantly surprised at the timely matter the commoner responded, Kayneth was slightly irritated at the lack of manners in not offering his name in return. Have a raised eyebrow.]

Merely a few inquiries; how long have you been serving 'Odin'? Has there been talk of the ultimate reason of our summoning?

[A slight pause as he waits for the answers to better ask the next set of questions.]

[Commoner my foot, HE'S GOT A FANCY CAR. AND A FANCY CRAVAT. DO YOU HAVE A FANCY CAR OR A FANCY CRAVAT, MELON LORD? And excuse him, he'll introduce himself later.]

I have been here for a week. Did you receive a letter from the maid who greeted you upon your arrival?

[Though unseen, the only reaction was a raised eyebrow.]

I fail to see grounds for such an accusation.

Judge Yuri Petrov. [He responds promptly and politely. Getting to know the others in his house strikes him as a useful endeavor, and he's not adverse to answering such a summons.]

I reside in the house in question.

[video]

[vorsohydragyrum.livejournal.com]

[Finally, one with sense! Least one of those affiliated with his house have some decent courtesy. Automatically taking note of the position the stranger offered. Politeness offered gains politeness in turn.]

Pleased to meet your acquaintance, Judge Yuri Petrov.

[A slight pause for--dramatic effect?--before he continues.]

If you don't mind me taking up but a few moments of your time?

[video]

[a-civil-service.livejournal.com]

A pleasure to meet you as well. How do you prefer to be addressed? [Unfamiliar with the culture in question, he thinks it best to ask.]

[He nods.] I have ample time at the moment. It won't be an inconvenience at all.

[oikoumene.livejournal.com]

Hou, so a Master has decided to join us after all? I can't be surprised, considering.

[vorsohydragyrum.livejournal.com]

[Ironic, for the first familiar face he encounters to be the one he'd been unable to summon. Considering the fact that this one has yet figure out the exact logistics in regards to 'power' in this new world-- Rider's appearance has him spooked. Not that any of this shows on his face, of course. Kayneth warily returns the stare evenly.]

-and for a Servant to announce his presence without his Master at his side.

[A small sigh of amusement, though inwardly alarmed; without Lancer at his disposal, he's practically a sitting duck.]

I'm to assume you've manage to locate an alternate source or prana in maintaining your physical form since I've yet encounter my wayward student.

[oikoumene.livejournal.com]

Ahh, apparently, though your guess is as good as mine. You'll find that being a Servant or a Master matters little in this place, for we are all deprived of our abilities. I can announce myself freely if I wish.

Though, I will give you a warning, magus—Insulting my Master is unwise.

Have you not checked the area yourself?

[vorsohydragyrum.livejournal.com]

[Another one. Really!? an unseen scowl, here.]

'Information of the Situation' is more then merely scouting the land.

[video]

[humsalament.livejournal.com]

[Shock of all shocks, Midna here is quite bored. And you look like someone who can help remedy that.]

There's so very little of it, what information could you possibly compile?

[video]

[vorsohydragyrum.livejournal.com]

[What is with these folks and not announcing their names? This one's half tempted to ignore this respondent but-- information is information. A sigh, at this.]

Hence the reason of gathering what little we know.

[Ignoring the second part; it's for him to know and you to never find out, Midna!]

Have you any?

video.

[broduil]

[ kayneth the last time he saw you you were bleeding all over the castle floor-- lancer was prepared for his master to appear, though certainly not in what appeared to be perfect health. they might have had quite a few disagreements, and he could tell there was no bond holding them together, but this is still the man he owes loyalty to. ]

It is good to see you well, my lord. [ the statement is mostly neutral, though he is at least a little relieved. ] Have you received any kind of explanation yet?

video.

[vorsohydragyrum.livejournal.com]

[He may not trust Lancer during the 4th holy grail war, and he certainly questions the man's motives even more now. However, the sad fact was, seeing familiar face not affiliated with the enemy gave him the tiniest spark of relief.]

hmm.

[Last he saw of you was when he ordered you to defeat Castor; don't think he has forgotten! However, he pushes the thought aside for more pressing matters.]

Report what you've learned, Lancer.

[Technically no longer 'Master' due to the lack of command seals, old habits seem hard to break for this one.]

video.

[shigeharu]

Ah, so proper! If we're going to be in the same house for who knows how long, do we really need to waste so much breath on formalities?

[he shrugs, though - he would like to know who else he's dealing with, after all.]

Takenaka Hanbei, retainer to Hashiba Hideyoshi.

video.

[vorsohydragyrum.livejournal.com]

[Twitching slightly at the response, though he was able to school his irritation behind an indifferent mask easily enough. However, whatever irritation he felt was forgotten for the moment in favor of the man's introduction.]

Pleased to make your acquaintance, Takenaka Hanbei.

[Not letting his shock show as it only then became apparent (to him) the time paradox the gods have created.]

Breath on such 'formalities' is never wasted, retainer of Hashiba Hideyoshi, but merely common courtesy.

[Pause.]

May I inquire the last memory you have prior to your summons?

video;

[quests.livejournal.com]

I am of Odin, apparently.

video;

[vorsohydragyrum.livejournal.com]

Of course.

[Yet another without the common courtesy of introducing himself without his title! What is with this place!? Still, he does a remarkable job in keeping his opinions to himself. Giving the newcomer an even stare, now.]

Have you any time to share what you've learned of this place since your arrival?

[persistantsong.livejournal.com]

I don't know if there is anyone that knows more than anyone else at the moment.

[vorsohydragyrum.livejournal.com]

Thus the reason of gathering what little we do know.

[Take a deep breath, Kayneth. It seems manners do not come easily to the folks here. Just. pretend they're the students you've the displeasure in having to teach. Loosing your temper here will do you no good.]

What house are you sorted into?

[video]

[sostaygold.livejournal.com]

Allen Abaddonia, my lord, servant to the royal house of the Kingdom of Lucifenia.

[An automatically polished introduction, responding to the manner of the man on the screen. He pauses minutely before going on:]

I assume you've received a letter and spoken with one of the serving spirits, but have you met with a 'god' yet?

[gandere]

My, my, my. A name that prestige is one I've only read about during my studies. [ Although the similarities it shares with her lecturer is interesting enough to note. ] Yet, you only waste your time with the opinions of those from a certain house?
