[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.]

Comments

he can only hope to be as awesome as a guy who can be the worst and best bro simultaneously.

[forgiatura]

They're pretty simple. If I get you down from there, you gotta do me favors when it comes to technical stuff.

[ A beat. ]

A part-time wingman'd probably be nice, too. [ Sometimes girls require a higher amount of intellect in their potential boyfriends than Spada has, and Luca isn't around, so ... ]

he is the best bro okay

[ctrlaltdemons]

Yeah, I'm fine with that--

[And then a pause. Did Spada just say wingman? ...]

...Dude, seriously? [...SIIIIIIGH. Screw it, Atsuro just wants to get down from here already.] ...Fine. You've got a deal.

if you are talking about spada the answer is yes always

[forgiatura]

[ Hey, he can take it or leave it! (Spoilers: leaving it means he doesn't get a hand down from the tree.) ]

No goin' back on it now!

[ Of course, Spada's idea of helping Atsuro down includes the incredibly simple method of climbing up a minimal amount of the tree — only up the first tier of branches or so — and promptly slicing through Atsuro's underwear with one of his swords. Hope you enjoy falling from trees, broseph. ]

clearly I mean atsuro!

[ctrlaltdemons]

[...Yeah he's just gonna take it then.]

I won't!

[What the hell is that guy--IS THAT A SWORD.. Dude don't castrate me now. OH GOD WHAT ARE YOU--fuckignl git that is the worst way to help him down wow. brb faceplanting.]

has atsuro threatened to cut his best friend up on the battlefield

[forgiatura]

[ Man, if he castrated him he wouldn't have a part-time wingman via their deal anymore! Besides, Spada's awesome at swordplay and there's no way he'd mess up that bad —

Anyway he said he'd help him down and it's Atsuro's fault for not figuring out or specifying how before he actually did. He's just gonna keep chillin' out in that tree since he's up there, maybe toss down the remnants of the guy's underwear on him. No littering now! ]

Better?

no but he follows his friend to the end of the earth, man

[ctrlaltdemons]

[I took swordplay completely wrong. Excuse me.

After a moment of laying face-flat on the ground, Atsuro slowly pushes himself up to sit and rubs his head, which the underwear remnants soon gracefully fall onto. ugh why.]

You couldn't at least give me a little warning..? [SIIIIIGH again. Spada did help him so... Can't really complain, can he?] Thanks though. [I guess. 8|]

not good enough needs to consistently make the friend in question fear for his life

[forgiatura]

[ Just wait until Spada gets into Asura's swordplay —

Yeahhh, you bet you're thanking him, Atsuro. He did just help you, and you have a new friend to boot. ]

If I gave you a warnin' you would have been hangin' up here for even longer.

that's just being a troll bro! but atsuro's a bro bro, bro.

[ctrlaltdemons]

[What about Hasta's? B) Green Ranger...

A cruel friend. But whatever, whatever! Maybe this guy will turn out to be a pretty cool guy. Maybe. As long as he doesn't cut up anymore of Atsuro's underwear.]

...Good point. [I GUESS. SIGH.] So where are we, anyway? I don't recognize this place at all, nor do I remember ever being up in that tree in the first place.

no that's being the /best/ bro!!

[forgiatura]

[ Maybe Spada will teach Atsuro about Hasta's spearplay one day, too ...

Spada has no intention of cutting up anymore of Atsuro's underwear if he doesn't give him a reason to, on the bright side! ]

Right, right, I'm assumin' you didn't just climb up the tree and get stuck there yourself.

[ ... A pause. He could have fun with this. ]

What's it look like?

nope. troll bro only.

[ctrlaltdemons]

[no thank you. Do not want.

He better not!]

Nope. I just woke up hanging from there. It doesn't make sense at all.

[Maybe someone knocked him out and threw him up there? Freaking bullies y u do dis.]

I don't know; all I know is that it doesn't look like any place I've been to before. [Honestly, Spada.]

nope best bro forever

[forgiatura]

[ He better not start pointing fingers at Spada, man. ]

C'mon, you don't got any kind of guess?

[ This is important for fucking with Atsuro's head! ]

nope nope. just a troll bro.

[ctrlaltdemons]

[SPADA IS THE MALNOSSO.]

Nope, nothing. Dude, I've never really been here before so I don't think I could take a good guess.

[Honestly, Spada! How the hell is he supposed to guess?!]

maaan y'all are haters.

[forgiatura]

[ yes. Spada is the Malnosso. ]

Alright, look. This is some kinda alternate reality. [ Not completely untrue!! ]

And in order to go back to your own place, you gotta go through a series of trials. [ Read: favors for Spada. ]

haters gonna hate

[ctrlaltdemons]

[Ace detectiiiive. Case closed; let's get drunk.]

Alternate reality...? And what kind of trials?

[Atsuro's starting to get the feeling that Spada's just pulling his leg or something.]

haters to the left please

[forgiatura]

[ Only if Atsuro buys the drinks. ]

I dunno, the kind that test your ... strength of character and all that crap.

[ What? Why would he be doing that? ]

haters be hating on the left

[ctrlaltdemons]

[They're free here though!]

Whaaa...? What do you mean?

[This is starting to sound really dumb, Spada. Atsuro's a smart guy; he'll figure it out eventually okay.]

they best be

[forgiatura]

[ Not for Atsuro — ]

Y'know, the kinda thing where you gotta go through a series of events tryin' to prove your worth or somethin'?

[ Not his fault Atsuro doesn't understand the basic concept of 'series of trials'! ]

meaning they can't go to the left! so what do

[ctrlaltdemons]

[What. You liar.]

Prove your worth...? [...Just. this face. Atsuro's not buying it anymore, Spada.]

... to the right to the right?

[forgiatura]

[ Is Atsuro not genre-savvy at all or what. ]

C'mon, you don't get what I'm gettin' at?

hell no. /backwards

[ctrlaltdemons]

[No Spada's just being a weirdo.]

...No. It just sounds like something out of a video game or manga or something.

[WHICH HE'S PRETTY SURE HE'S NOT IN.]

uhhh let's do the time warp again??

[forgiatura]

[ Yeah, okay, whatever. ]

Luceti ain't too far off from that, to be fair.

hell no again

[ctrlaltdemons]

[Is Luceti and RPG or something.]

Luceti? Is that the name of this place?

but why ... not ...

[forgiatura]

[ Yes, evidently. They are now in Luceti the RPG. ]

Yeah, it is. It's a different world, in case you didn't figure that one out already.

because.

[ctrlaltdemons]

[It all makes sense now!]

Well... I kind of figured that out at this point but didn't want to believe it, you know? [Siiiigh.] How did we get here though?

:( mel y u so mean to me.

[forgiatura]

I think everyone just settles with the idea of bein' kidnapped.

[ A kidnapping that spans dimensions. Which is the best kidnapping. ]
