[The feed shows a nice view of absolutely nothing. There is, however, the sound of someone spitting. Very lovely. He just woke up with a mouthful of dead rotting leaves. His day is off to a great freaking start, that's what.]

Ugh, nasty! Ow--... ow... ow. [Don't let the nonchalance fool you. He's realizing he's alive. Taking in a deep breath, and letting it out.

He's alive.

... And also FREEZING COLD. But wait until he finds a way home! This is impossible, but maybe-- just maybe--]

Hahah... jeez, it's c-c-cold. Am I in K-Keterburg or something?

-- Hey, what's...

[And here's when he brushes the journal off. Hello, there's a half-naked redhead getting up close and personal, and turning it upside down, and then shaking it out a bit. What is this strange and mystifying technology? It sure as hell isn't his journal.]

Weird.

[Feeling something tickle his shoulder, he reaches over to brush it off. And then he notices the wings, red with gold tips just like his hair. He has wings. This is not a drill. Luke drops the journal in favor of screaming like the grown man he isn't.]

W-what the hell is going on!?

[NO LUKE DON'T PULL ON THOSE--] —OW! [Yeah, that hurt more than anything else in his life. Now he's curled up over his knees again, trying not to cry. He almost blacked out there.]

G-guess they're real...

Maybe. I still think they could re-dress us before they toss us in here though.

[wildsaber]

They probably would if they were nice guys, but...

[universal_charm]

That's me giving them to much credit, I know. Still, it's cold, you would think they would want a person to at least make it to the village.

[wildsaber]

[dryly] Nope.

[universal_charm]

You should hit the clothing shop first then - and stat. Stock up on some warmer clothes. We're almost out of winter, but it's been stubborn so you can still get a nasty cold.

[wildsaber]

Don't have to tell me twice.

[universal_charm]

Good. I hope I don't have to tell you twice about the wings either. No sympathy from me since you've already been told once.

_{[ No one sympathizes with stupid. ]}

[wildsaber]

I know, I know. I can't imagine pulling out feathers. Just touching them hurt.

[universal_charm]

Yeah, that'll go away. I mean, you shouldn't pull the, but you can touch them without hurting yourself. I think right now they're probably just sore cause you've just had them put on. Can't say for sure though.

[wildsaber]

... I think I rolled over on them, too.

That probably didn't help.

[universal_charm]

Probably not, but they can't hurt forever since we sleep with them, and not everyone sleeps on their stomachs. You just kind of.. get used to them.
