Walker?

[A rather stiff looking man appears on the video feed, handling the little device fairly easily for new arrival. There's a heavy frown on his face and one hand is rubbing almost anxiously at his neck. His clothing (what can be seen of it, anyway) is a bit dated, but overall he seems very well put together. Very neat.]

Supervisor? [He squares his shoulders and drops his hand to his side.] Status, please.

[As soon as Link gets close enough, he should be able to spot Allen pacing around at the entrance, Timcanpy echoing his movements in a dizzying loop. He stops upon catch sight of Link and starts waving to get his attention.]

[Link approaches the exorcist and golem at a trot, slightly out of breath from his travel. Allen gets a critical once-over, and the inspector does not look impressed with what he sees.]

... You said you've been here for a month?

[Doesn't miss his scrutiny, but meets it with a winsome smile. Hopefully it'll be enough to negate the slightly dirty clothes and the fact that his cheekbones are a tad more pronounced than they ought to be. Hopefully.]

A month and two days, to be precise. [Turns to hurry inside, expecting Link to follow. He'll shut the door once you get in.]

[He does follow, but Allen's tough out of luck if he thinks Link is going to let his current state go.]

You look terrible. [Sensitive, yes?]

All things considered, Link, just keep in mind that I could be looking a lot worse.

[Opens the room to his door where it's marginally warmer.]

[Link keeps following, somewhat grateful for slight increase in temperature, though he's not too worried about that right now. Now? It's business time.]

How so? What else do I need to know about this place?

[Link may notice there're several buckets and basins lined up neatly against one wall, all containing water. Too much water for just one person, perhaps.]

Nesreca is uninhabited except for us, I was told the original residents have all died in a massacre long ago. This building seems to be the only livable place at the moment, the bathrooms are sadly out of order, and there are hardly any supplies to go 'round. Everyone's been fending for themselves. There's a thriving city named Credinta across the river, but their residents are... understandbly wary of us. Too wary to do business with anyone from this side of the river, in fact, so we've been resorting to other means.

[Grabs a worn blanket off his bed as he speaks and offers it to Link.]

Our captor doesn't seem to have any concrete plans for us beyond simple observation. For her entertainment, she says.

[Link waves off the blanket for now. He frowns deeply, not at the living conditions or at what "other means" may imply, but at Allen's mentions of observation and entertainment.]

And there are no limitations placed on those living here?

[Drapes it over an arm for now, but he'll try to offer it again whenever the opportunity arises.]

None that I have noticed besides my inability to communicate with the Ark. We haven't really had a chance to find out. [Lets his tone add and I hope we won't have to.]

[Damn it, one of the few situations where Link would allow use of the Ark and bam, no Ark.

He's quiet for several long moments before he sighs.]

... Who else is present from the Order aside from you, Kanda, and myself? You mentioned someone else.

[He knows, it's all so very tragic.]

You said from our world, Link, not the Order specifically. Kanda and I are the only Exorcists here.

[His eyes narrow.] Who?

[mildly] Just a child. You should probably dry yourself off, by the way. We don't have any medics or medical supplies here.

[Annoyed. He doesn't like it when you keep things from him, Allen, but in light of the current situation? He'll let it go. For now.

Link looks down at himself with a disgruntled sort of expression.]

Insufficient supplies, unsuitable shelter, and no medical supplies. [Link won't swear out loud, but the urge to is quite clear in his face.]

[Smiles to show he appreciates that, at least, although it turns wry with every new mess Link is adding to the list.]

Sounds about right. It's... not that hard to secure supplies from Credinta, but I prefer not to do it too often.

[Offers the blanket again?]
