(OOC: Backlogged to right after this)

Does anyone know where I could find a ladder here? It's important!

-- Eh?

[ pause ]

-- HEY! Where the hell am I!? Kazu? Agito? Buccha? Onigiri? You guys suck! I swear, if this is some Sleipner thing, someone's gonna pa --

[ silence ]

Damn, your sense of humor fails. To think that the great Ikki-sama can be capable of any crime? Yeah right! Gods can't do crimes! Now where's the exit cause I have a bunch of asses I need to kick!

I have a question, for anyone who is willing to answer.

What... What do you think is the difference between a good person and a bad person?

...

Well, well.

[The communication shuts off after that short message.]

[Looks like he's just sitting on the counter in the kitchen. Flipping his cellphone.]

How about we play a game? It's simple and everyone can participate.~

[Well, he did say to ask, so...]

Suzakuuu~~

Did you come to Zero's and my wedding?

[Cornelia bristles upon arrival. Her first act is to obtain a more secure and advantageous position although she has yet to see another person.

She finds she has no side arm, no knightmare frame, and no knights within view. The blood she'd felt trickle down her face earlier is absent, and there are bandages on her forehead and arms. It feels like one or more of her ribs is cracked.

She is wearing some type of device, which she removes and inspects before replacing it in order to read the message upon the screen.

She scans over her crimes and the details of her incarceration with narrowed eyes and a clenched fist. She has no time for such nonsense.]

I have read your welcome message, and I reject it. I demand to speak to the person in charge of this facility immediately.

[After the talk with Russel and Fletcher, Ed leads Al back to the room he's claimed as his own. He doesn't stop once they're both inside, though, and once he's peeled off his jacket and communicator, he rounds on Al with a deep frown, arms folded over his chest.]

So. Go over this with me one more time, from the part about homunculi being failed human transmutations. Just so I can get all this straight.
