01 ♪ video/action ♪ wake up sleepyhead!

[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...

[Oh Luke. He tries.

Jade keeps on leading the way, smirking and adjusting his glasses as he moves.]

I'm afraid that no miracles have returned. But rest assured, you'll receive more than your fair share of such affection form your more compatible friends.

...Despite the fact that a number of them should still be unaware of your actual fate.

[wildsaber]

[Luke blinks-- once, twice, trying to make sense of that.]

What? But-- but everyone--

[And here he thought he could live without hiding that. That's a big thing to hide.]

[yourfononsarewhack]

Everyone has yet to reach Eldrant, as far as I'm aware. [He sharply cuts him off. He is uncertain about Guy, however.]

Tear may have an idea... but otherwise, I believe that the others should be mostly unaware of your fate. [He thinks it's only fair to give Luke this information, so that he can do what he sees fit with it.]

[wildsaber]

[He lets out a little breath he didn't realize he was holding.]

Then, if I leave... they won't know I'm actually...

[Yeah, he's not just ~going home~, it's not that simple.]

[yourfononsarewhack]

That depends entirely on what you choose to confide in them. [He adjusts his glasses.] I suggest that you put a lot of thought into this matter, Luke. We have no idea how long we will be stuck here, after all. Our friends here will have to carry whatever you say with them until the end of their time in this world.
