[ . . .He wants to kick himself for discarding the magic device he had found by his ear upon arrival. While the words it had said were nonsense, it wasn't until later that he comes to understand that it may be his only way to find the princess.

. . . And now his companion whom he separated with earlier to go search for it. By now he's given up on finding the magic object. More important, he thinks, is reuniting. They can look for the ear piece later.

At some point he procured material to paint with, as well as a notebook. Apparently the metal beings- which originally he had been wary of could understand him. With the notebook, he's already quickly sketched something within. And with that he wanders around the current sector he's within, and approaches anyone who will spare him a moment.]


Excuse me. [He lifts a clawed hand up to catch their attention and approaches seriously.] I have a missing person to report. He's a boy who appears around the age of sixteen or seventeen, with blond hair, blue eyes, and might have invited himself over for a meal. [Lifting the notebook up there's an incredible sketch on the paper of the boy in question.]



His name is Zeno and he should be in orange...attire like myself. You may have seen him sleeping in a random location, and tends to roam around like a vagabond. If you find him, please return him to me.

[ . . . Maybe he should put up a few posters.]

[Closed to The Happy Hungry Bunch]

[ . . . Apparently he truly is within a foreign country. He can't understand anything anyone has been saying here. But somehow they can understand him? He thinks. The sun is beginning to set, and he realizes that if he doesn't find Zeno soon, or the magical device he'll have to sleep outside without any of his belongings. He's certainly become used to sleeping beneath the stars, even if he isn't particularly a fan. But usually he has a pillow, blanket, and the proper equipment.

Troubled, he expels a sigh, brows knitting as he stares down at the blank page in front of him. Perhaps he should paint the princess, too... She is who he needs to find most of all. If she is alone without one of them now, she must surely be worried. Frustration curls his lips down, a determined expression crossing his features.]


Do not worry, Princess. We will surely find you again. [In the meantime he can only hope that she is with Hak, Jae-Ha, Yoon, and Shin-ah.]

[OOC: Kija does not have his communication device on. He speaks Koukan... which is Korean based-ish, so he likely wont be able to understand anyone, but they should still be able to understand him. P.S. Forgive Kija's terrible art skills.]

[She nods and returns the communicator to him.] I'll be more than happy to teach you anything you'd like to know. We also have a school here which might help.

A school...?

[He blinks.] I have received my education already, although I was tutored privately. I once snuck down to the school within my village to see what it was like though. And have visited on a couple of occasions. [To encourage the children studying.]

But you believe this school will explain about the magic here?

[It's a little slow going passing the communicator back and forth, but they're making it work.] The magic? Ah, yes, it would explain that. It isn't really magic at all though.

[Handing it back to her, he gives her an inquisitive glance.]

How else does a voice produced in one location end up in another at such a great distance? Or a basin produce mini waterfalls of water at just a touch?

[A basin and mini waterfalls?] Do you mean a sink? Where you wash your hands? That's indoor plumbing. I'm afraid I don't know much about how it works, but I don't think it's actually as complicated as it might seem. And the communicators work on various frequencies sending signals through the air and then decoding them again. But I probably don't understand it well enough to explain the details either. [So many things she takes for granted that other people can create and maintain.]

[Indoor plumbing...? Isn't that incredible, though? And the water is drinkable? When she begins to mention frequencies the explanation becomes lost on him. When she has the device back his brows knit.]

Until now, I have never known such things before. If these... [His claw reaches up to gently tap the device upon his ear] If these communicators existed at home, it would make relaying messages and keeping in contact with others so much easier. I cannot even begin to comprehend the amount of good it could do.

[He makes a fist and gently places it within his opposite palm.]

I will endeavor to bring some back home with me when all of us escape this place.

Yes, maybe you would be able to do something like that. [She doesn't sound very certain or hopeful for it though.] Ah, we're at the kiosk. You can ask it for your communicator.

[ . . . . Just staring at the kiosk and forgetting to pass over the communicator.]

With whom am I supposed to be speaking to?

[Glancing around for this 'Kiosk'.]

[She isn't sure what he's saying, but he looks confused.]

Warden? My friend would like to request a replacement for his communicator.

I had no idea that would be a group activity. How nice for you both. [The sarcasm is thick in this one.]

[You made an AI sigh. Are you happy with yourself now?] I am Veridical, one of your wardens. I am speaking with you through a kiosk.

[ It's your fault Veridical for having confusing technology.]

One of the wardens... then you are responsible for bringing myself, as well as this young lady, and others here?

[KEKEKEKEKEKE]

How foolish, then. To leave yourself so vulnerable and exposed.

[ WOW. He thought finding the wardens would be difficult. Instead it's just sitting here exposed. Lifting his claw up, he's frustrated that the strength behind it is absent. But surely if he hits it enough that will do the trick.]

You will release me, along with Zeno, this young woman, and the rest of the individuals you have kidnapped here. You will do so immediately or else the wrath of heaven will fall upon you with a vengeance, and it will not be gentle.

[The driest. Deserts are jealous. Also bored sounding.] Oh no. The humanity. This is terrifying and super effective. What will I do? How could I have been so foolish?

[Even with his strength there is shielding protecting the kiosk and if there weren't...it would still just be a terminal and not the AIs themselves.]

[ URK-! He tried to give it a warning, right? Which is why when his hand pulls back he doesn't feel bad. He will try not to kill it, but things would have been so much easier if it cooperated. Lashing out he strikes hard!!!

. . . Only to realize that despite his claws and his force behind it.... nothing has changed. So again he strikes! And again! And again! And again!

Again, again, again, again, again, again, again!!!]

C- [Let him breathe a moment] Coward. You are hiding behind something! [If he had his strength so help him...]

[She doesn't know what's being said by Kaji at this point, but it's hard to miss the attack.] No, please, stop before they send a bot to subdue you! [She reaches out for him, perhaps unwisely.]

[Luckily Kija has the reflexes to halt before he can hurt her. Furious, he glares at the kiosk, clearly riled up.]

I am not afraid of a bot. [Whatever a 'bot' is. But though his attack on the impenetrable kiosk has come to an end, he's hardly calmed.]

This Kiosk is an affront to heaven! I will not lower myself to ask it for something.

[She doesn't know what he's saying, but she looks at the kiosk imploringly.] Please just give him a new communicator. You can use my rehabilitation points if they're needed.

Granted. And have a lovely day.

[A bot will be along shortly with a new communicator.]
