First Performance

[Okay, so Coquelicot thought she'd be waking up in the circus. Or the Chattes Noires. Or in any other location that she was even remotely familiar with. For that matter, she also would've preferred waking up in clothes that she 1) actually owned and/or 2) remembered wearing

C-Coquelicot?!

You're...

[demon_of_paris]

...Great. Why'd they have to drag you here too? Better than Glycine I guess, but still.

[magique_bonbon]

Lobelia! You were kidnapped, too!?

[magique_bonbon]

... hey! It's not like I wanted to get stuck here with a thief!

N-Nevermind that. Who's "they"?

[sacred_thunder]

Please, calm down. I can explain generally what has happened to us, but you must remain calm.

[magique_bonbon]

[Coquelicot takes a deep breath and does her best to ignore the pictures.]

... okay...

[sacred_thunder]

First, let me introduce myself. I am Ky Kiske, a member of international law enforcement. Some of what I'm about to tell you may sound hard to believe, but I assure you that I am speaking the truth.

Now, I'm afraid we are no longer in the world you knew. You have been taken to a town known as Mayfield. The people here have been taken from their homes and assigned to houses here, as part of "families" with other people.

[magique_bonbon]

...

[... l-let's just start with the most understandable part of that sentence.]

Everyone's been forced into "families"?

[glockblock]

Greetings.

[magique_bonbon]

H... hello? Who's there? ... Ichiro?

[glockblock]

Negative. I have not heard of anyone with that name or call sign.

[magique_bonbon]

... oh. Call sign? Then, um... who are you?

[weaponsparked]

You're stuck in a tiny little town with no way out.

[magique_bonbon]

... you're not one of the people who captured me, are you!?

[weaponsparked]

Um.

No. Whoever's responsible decided to capture me as well. Most humans here are the same way.

[magique_bonbon]

Ah, I see- sorry about that, I'm still kind of nervous. [Something of an understatement, that.]

[ex_giita]

Koke-ah?

[magique_bonbon]

... eh? What was that?

[ex_giita]

What did you say your name was, miss?

[magique_bonbon]

... it's Coquelicot! Um, who is this?
