1st Bel [Action/Voice]

[Action]
Where am I..? -- ...OW!

[Well. This sucks.

And is quite painful too. I mean really, being strung to a tree by your underwear must be incredibly painful. Atsuro's just in luck, since that's exactly the predicament he's in right now! So you may find this loser ~~rolling around in a trash can~~ flailing around in a tree -- I mean.. this poor, confused new feather somewhere around the village, hanging from a tree and flailing around a bit while trying to get down.]

H-hey, can someone help me down...?! [WHAT IS EVEN GOING ON HERE.]

[Voice]
[Aaaand once that awful incident is through with, Atsuro will go ahead and tinker with his new fancy journal thing and throw up an entry! Just a tad too embarrassed to do it over video so.. Here, have some guy-who-is-literally-butthurt's voice.]

So uh.. has anyone else here arrived in really weird ways? [because really that was just awful.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Murder scenarios? That's... not the case here, is it?

[Oh god why the deadpan, you're scaring him here.]

[ Ange has that kind of effect on people.. ]

They have no news show here, so murders would go unreported, right? [ JUST KEEPING UP THE DEADPAN JOKE sorry Atsuro.. ]

[ANGE THIS IS TERRIBLE...]

S-seriously?! [Y-you're not pulling his leg are you..?! Come on, don't pick on the newbie!]

[ SHE DOESN'T HALF REALISE JUST HOW HORRIBLE IT IS, SORRY.. ]

Well, in theory, of course. Someone could commit serial murder here and as long as word wouldn't spread too quickly, they'd have a good streak gone probably.

[POOR GUY'S GOING TO BE TERRIFIED.]

But... Someone would at least notice the fact that people are missing, wouldn't they?!

Yeah, of course they would. But they would just assume people were sent home or taken by the Malnosso for an unknown period of time or something like that. There would be a lot of instant excuses for it in this place.

But... what about blood?! Or any sort of evidence in general. People could find that, right? Or what about the police?!

Sorry to say, but there aren't any cops or anything of the like around here. Seems you'll have to fight criminals with your own hands.

...None at all? Seriously?! Jeez, what kind of place is this?!

[This deadpan. Sob.] You sound like you're really used to this though... How long have you been here?

A pretty horrible place, actually. In fact, we were all kidnapped here, so if there were cops around it would be sort of strange.

[ and Ange is used to far more than you can imagine, Atsuro.. ]

Since May now, so.. over half a year, I guess?

...Yeah, that... Makes sense, I guess. If cops were here, we wouldn't have been kidnapped in the first place, would we?

[Sigh.]

Man, really? That's a while-- [...Wait.] Since May? What month is it now?

Well, to be honest.. I don't know if even cops could do anything against the Malnosso here. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they kidnapped a few people who were cops back home.

And it's November now. [ she pauses for a moment to check the exact date. ] November 11th.

Yeah, I met someone earlier who's one of those cases. Or kind of, anyway. He's a detective, I think? [lol Naoto. Stay free, Atsuro. Thinking she's a boy forever.]

November?! I mean, I can already tell it's winter here, but that's still really shocking to here... Back at home, it was summertime, so...

Well, just because someone calls themselves a detective doesn't mean they always legitly are one. [ she's had her share of them.. ]

Time works differently here than back home. When we go back, we'll apparently go back to the same point in time we disappeared, so time just flows differently in both worlds.

That's true... Guess you could be right. But even then, there's gotta be at least someone here who is.

Really? Man that's confusing.. So when we go back, it'll be as if we never left in the first place?

True. But still, they can't do anything about the situation either. Even if they brought in someone super powerful here, they still wouldn't be able to break us out. [ a sigh. ] Ah, it's useless, it's all useless.

And yeah, that's about the gist of it. Nobody will notice you were ever gone.

Oh right, any powers of people are tuned down here, right? Or at least I remember reading something about that. Man that sucks.. But I'm sure there has to be at least some way out, right?

[I mean, they did find a way out of the Lockdown before. Just... it was guarded. But whatever.]

Huh.. That's kind of upsetting to think about--that they don't notice you're gone. But at the same time, they never had the time to realize it. ...I think. That's what I'm getting out of this, at least. [Siiigh. So confusing.]

Well, maybe not any, but.. I personally can't use most of my powers either, so it's true that at least some stuff is toned down. It's only natural if they're planning on keeping us here, though.

[ she doesn't sound like she particularly cares about this latter point though. ] So it doesn't matter either way, right? All we have to do is getting out of here.

If it weren't for that, people would just be able to get out of here with ease. They must have really thought this through, huh? [So unfortunate, too.] But... if you don't mind me asking, what sorts of powers do you have? [Simply curious.]

Guess so. Whatever way that may be.

If they hadn't thought it through, people would have escaped from here a long time ago. Or at least, I'd hope that much. It's been years for some people, after all.

[ and her powers.. well, she usually isn't too open about it, but she doesn't particularly care about hiding it either. It's just that she's never asked. ]

Summoning, mostly. But it's been said I should be able to do more than that with practice.

Years? Man, I hope I'm not here for that long... I mean, I hear some people actually like it here but...

[He'd reaaally rather be home. And the phrase "summoning" kinda pings him.]

Summoning? What do you mean by that?

The same counts for me. I still have things to do back home, and sitting around here and being experimented on isn't my style either way.

Well, just what the word says. Summoning magical creatures. You could call them demons, I guess. [ sounds familiar, right.. ]

Yeah, I hear you.

...Demons?! Really? Like... what kinds of demons? [..That's probably a really dumb question but whatever. He's definitely pinged here.] And how do you summon them? [She doesn't have a COMP does she..]

[ and then Ange was a Devil Summoner character.. ]

Do you really have different kinds of them? Demons are demons, right? And I just summon them with magic. .. Ah, I guess they call themselves the 'Seven Sisters of Purgatory', though.

[Ohshi--

..Aaah he was hoping to just not have to talk about the demons but... If she's talking about hers, it's only fair, isn't it? He sighs.] Er... Yeah. There are all kinds of different species of them where I'm from. Like how animals are broken down into species. [A beat.] The Seven Sisters of Purgatory?
