[ Voice Post, filtered from Sherlock Holmes ]

He-Hello?

[ there was a nervous squeak from an adult man. ]

Uhm, my name's Jim and - what's going on here? I-I was just about to go home a-a-and then something happened, I don't know what and now I'm stuck here! Oh dear, how am I going to apologize to Molly now...

[ there was a small meow. Jim's voice ( Read more... )

[Guess who's a complete sucker for the sympathy game? There's a fresh face and a pair of blond pigtails connected to buns coming over the PCD. She would have offered help, but this is more immediate!]

Ah, are you alright?! Did it bite you?

[ is that a sincere voice of concern i hear? JUST AS PLANNED. ]

Uh, yeah. [ there's a nervous chuckle. ] It bit my hand. Ow...

[ and there is a bite wound. it's not that deep and it's not bleeding, but it's still a wound. ]

[It is! And this is when the PCD is frustrating: she is not there to help bandage it up!]

You're Jim, right? I'm Usagi. [Not very helpful, but she's mostly trying to be reassuring first.] If it bit you, you should go to the clinic right away. Do you need the coordinates?

Wait, there's a clinic? S-Sure, can I have he coordinates.

Usagi... [ rabbit? how appropriate. ] You're Japanese? Are we in Japan?

[ he looks around in concern. definitely not japan, but might as well play along. ]

In Adstringéndum, you shall soon learn to trust neither the wildlife nor the powers in control.

You can usually identify a hell cat from the eyes and the teeth.

[Glancing up from his book.]

Try to be more careful next time? Nobody has died from a yandere attack yet, but it only takes one mistake.

Hell cats. Creepy. [ well duh, but still playing the oblivious game here. ]

[ speaking of not-oblivious, mind sharing what the book is, if it's visible to the screen? if sherlock can sherlock scan, moriarty can moriarty scan. ]

Y-Yeah, thanks... Apparently this place is more dangerous than I thought. And more dirty.

[IT IS THE BIBLE, okay. The pages are a little (a lot) waterlogged, the little 'HOLY BIBLE' stamp quite worn.

What? Ever since the angels have made themselves known in Adstring- ever since his little outing with the archangel Michael- Yuca has went back to studying what he knew about them.

He's also wearing his priest robes, worn and thin, patchy at the elbows and knees. A nice guise, and one that he maintained rather dilligently.

Yuca smiles kindly at him, closing the bible and focusing his attentions (red eyes, dark circles underneath them) on the screen.]

It's a different sort of place- I don't blame you for being taken by surprise. Are you alright?

[ a priest. a seemingly exhausted priest - clearly older than he looks. ]

Other than the cat bite, I'm fine. [ he smiles. ] I-I didn't get much about this place, I'm afraid -- where exactly on Earth is Adstring?

[Why is this so funny? Oh, right, it's a grown man getting attacked by a cat.]

Cats can be fickle things, can't they?

[ he would be laughing too if he wasn't pretending to be so scared. ]

Not Toby! Toby's the nicest cat in the world.

You'll need to learn fast that there isn't much in the way of "nice" in this world.
