[ Voice | Open ] Day 175
[ What comes on over the audio is nothing but noise at first. Someone or something is grappling with the communicator. Fingernails perhaps? There is also the incoherent shouting of a male voice that might be familiar to some, but with the way the audio receptors are being abused, it will be hard to make out many words at all. ]

—sto——reaking i——ut it out!

[ Most rustling and... was that a growl? Maybe the rush of air. ] —ere! Thank you. I think I can work this by myself.

[ The young man sighs, and there is one final bit of noise as he slip the device on over an ear. ] Okay. Is it on? I think it's on. This looks different.

[ He clears his throat and takes a deep breath. His attempt is to sound braver than he feels and certainly less seasick than he should be. ] Excuse me! Whoever can hear me, I'm... I'm looking for some friends! They're very important to me, so if there is anywhere I can ask about them, can you please point me the way? I think I saw a map? Maybe if I—

[ Click.

No, Ashton. That was not the right button. Way to fail. ]

	That's what I asked for, actually! But it doesn't sound as if anyone knows who my friends are, or if they have even arrived... I guess I should say "yet"? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They probably haven't shown up yet. Usually most people make themselves known on days like this. What about help with the communicator? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	watch_my_back 2012-07-12 04:11 pm UTC (link)
	The communicator? ...oh! You mean this? [ Tap tap. ] I told them I can handle it. They sometimes forgot who has the opposable thumbs in this outfit! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	guesstheskittle 2012-07-12 05:38 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, that. [He pauses a moment] They? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	watch_my_back 2012-07-12 05:56 pm UTC (link)
	Yep! My friends, Gyoro and Ururun. They are just a bit excitable right now. We didn't appreciate being plucked from home like that. Who would, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is the dragon chewing on his head in that icon? guesstheskittle 2012-07-12 06:28 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, I see. I would imagine. Most people aren't very happen about being here. Only crazy people or those who had a reason to not be in their home world wouldn't be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nuzzling! Though biting does happen sometimes watch_my_back 2012-07-12 06:39 pm UTC (link)
	We're definitely not crazy! And... I guess we weren't doing anything right now, but it's still not good timing for this. [ A day ago would have been worse. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hee... it kind of looked like it was chewing on him guesstheskittle 2012-07-12 07:06 pm UTC (link)
	Never said you were. Merely just a fact. Rarely does this place have good timing. Of course that can't be helped when you aren't the one deciding on the timing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That just makes it sound more like kidnapping and not an arrest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	guesstheskittle 2012-07-13 01:39 pm UTC (link)
	Well, wouldn't you know if you had been arrested and not just wake up somewhere you weren't before? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	watch_my_back 2012-07-13 08:19 pm UTC (link)
	...they kind of caught us while we were napping. [ Aheh. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	guesstheskittle 2012-07-14 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	That seems to be common. I've heard a lot of people were asleep when the computer got them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	watch_my_back 2012-07-15 12:33 am UTC (link)
	I would have expected Gyoro and Ururun to tell me if something was up, but it looks like they were napping, too. [ His other halves grumble. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	guesstheskittle 2012-07-15 12:47 am UTC (link)
	Well, they may not have even realized it even if they were awake. No one really knows for sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	watch_my_back 2012-07-15 06:53 pm UTC (link)
	So there are a lot more here who have been kidnapped, too? That's not right! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	guesstheskittle 2012-07-15 08:20 pm UTC (link)
	No, it isn't. And kidnapped could be anyone here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	watch_my_back 2012-07-16 04:38 am UTC (link)
	[ That wording takes a moment to set in. ] Even the guards? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	guesstheskittle 2012-07-16 06:28 pm UTC (link)
	The robots here? No, they were probably made here or transported from where ever they were made. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	watch_my_back 2012-07-17 03:03 pm UTC (link)
	Oh? So you— [ Hold on. ] The guards are robots? All of them? [ Now that he's taken another look around, he talks to himself — or his friends. ] ...wow, they're big! That's kind of scary. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	guesstheskittle 2012-07-17 04:24 pm UTC (link)
	They certainly aren't the rest of us. We're stuck here as well. As long as you don't get on their bad side you're fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	watch_my_back 2012-07-17 04:36 pm UTC (link)
	How would I stay on their good side? I'm no good at dealing with robots. Oh, if only Precis were here... [ Actually that would probably be a BAD IDEA, Ashton. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	guesstheskittle 2012-07-18 02:13 am UTC (link)
	For example, don't litter and don't try to attack the robots with a knife. That's not going to work. [Is the most helpful] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	watch_my_back 2012-07-18 05:00 am UTC (link)
	Why would I do that? And they already took my swords, so I'm pretty defenseless, except for my friends watching my back. [ Literally. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	guesstheskittle 2012-07-18 02:43 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know, but you'd be surprised how many people do. That's about how it is for everyone else here. Defense Force used to be allowed something for defense. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
