Okay, I've been kidnapped.

By Disney, I guess.

Who else is here, and what are we supposed to be building?

I'm afraid that this world isn't Disney Town. But I'm here—not that it really needed to be pointed out.

There are a lot of us stuck on this world, I'm afraid.

Re: video;

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Any idea of a headcount? Or what we're supposed to be doing?

I mean I guess we can be happy we're not tied to chairs or something.

[restlesswaters.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. I haven't really counted how many of us there are. If I had to guess, I'd say that it's somewhere between sixty and eighty. Of course, it could always be more or less.

People have a habit of disappearing, or turning up unannounced. As for what we're supposed to do, well... the Queen wants us to build.

Re: video;

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Disappearing? Like, escaping? And the police haven't raided this place yet?

Yeah, I got the memo, but building what, exactly? Bridges? Houses? A baseball field?

video;

[restlesswaters.livejournal.com]

I think any of those would be fine. One of my friends created a treehouse.

We don't know what happens when people disappear, and there doesn't seem to be a police force on this world. It's just us.

[border-phantasm.livejournal.com]

Not that, trust me.

People are here from all across multiple realities, and we are presumably trying to build this world for our dear captor.

Pardon me for bringing this up, but...there seems to be something on your face?

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Multiple... realities...

Right. [The skepticism is dripping off her tongue.]

[Her expression quickly sours at the question. Flatly:] Glasses.

[border-phantasm.livejournal.com]

Oh, you'd better get used to it.

I see. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Yukari Yakumo.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

[Oh yeah, that whole "etiquette" thing.]

Jessica Boyette. Um, nice to meet you. Sort of. I mean, not really in these circumstances...

So, building a world. All of it?

[border-phantasm.livejournal.com]

A pleasure Miss Boyette, and I understand completely.

Right now it's just bits and pieces. Our captor makes some other things...

Video.

You earth-crawling human fools are supposed to be building stuff like, well, buildings. Or trees. Or whatever else silly humans like, I wouldn't know. Stuff like that.

As for your other question...who else is here? A couple dozen humans, various youkai, a few magicians. Stuff like that.

Re: Video.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

[Wow OK that is a lot of stuff that Jessica has never seen outside of scifi and particularly strange ghosts. So she's just going to grasp at the one thing that particularly stands out to her.]

"Youkai"?

[OOC: Sorry for that x.X Tenshi is a bit of a haughty jerk and not very, uhm, accomodating when it comes to culture shocks]

You don't know the term? It just refers to supernatural beings - ghosts, animal spirits, and such. Don't worry, we just have the higher ones here, those that don't try to eat silly humans.

Re: Video.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

[Nah, it's all good, just Exciting Narrative Detail. :D]

Wait

Ghosts? Seriously?

That other people can see?!

[Her excitement has gone up a notch from "dead fish" to "interested."]

[peachhat.livejournal.com]

Uh...sure. I've seen a lot of ghosts in my time, actually. I think we even had a half-ghost here for a while. Don't ask how that works, Youmu always was half-baked in anything she did.

[hotshot-momma.livejournal.com]

Mered-!?

...No, no, can't be. You don't speak like her, for one.

Sorry. Just, you look like someone I know. A little.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Really?! You know someone who looks like this?!

[You have her full, enthusiastic attention, Major.]

Deeerp bullshit explanation go

[hotshot-momma.livejournal.com]

...Ah... ahuh. Similar hairstyle. Same nose, no glasses.

[A slight smile.] Half the time, lightly dusted with flour.

Re: Deeerp bullshit explanation go

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

oh. [She slumps a few millimeters.]

Yeah, that's... not me.

Obviously.

[hotshot-momma.livejournal.com]

No. Sorry. Just... had her on my mind, so I assumed.

Anna Lin. Welcome to the Gardens. As to what we're supposed to build... I can only speculate, and share those speculations.

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

Disney... heh. No wonder this place doesn't suit me. At all.

I don't really care what this Queen wants us to build. I plan on "inviting" her face to an arrow the second she shows herself in person.

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Wow, OK. For those of us less inclined to violence, though...

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

What, you want to do what this queen tells you to?

[notvitiligo.livejournal.com]

Not particularly, but I don't think I'm the one with all the power here, so...

[violent-archery.livejournal.com]

I guess. Haven't seen this Queen really do much yet, though. Kind of new here myself.
