✿ 01 ✿ Action and then voice.
[ The first thing Kanako notices when she wakes up is the funny dress she's wearing ] Eh?? [ She stands up, giving it a small twirl. Somehow it makes those long skinny legs of hers more awkward than a Japanese mini-skirt manages to do ] C... cosplay?
Where...? Hello?!? [ she busts out of the room and into the hallway where she sees a picture of herself and two white people, neither of which she's related to the last time she checked. ] Is this... a kidnapping? I've heard about this before! Poor couples that don't have any children go hunting for lone boys and girls wandering out on the streets! [ she takes on a manlier voice ] "You're coming with us! We're going to raise you as our own! Just don't tell the police or we're going to end you, little girl!!"
[then she takes on a higher, sweeter, more innocent voice that is ttly supposed to be her ] "Iyaa, I, Kanako Miyamae, whose own dear mother is an angel in heaven, have already experienced the deepest level of hell in one Mariya Shidou. There's nothing you can do to me now that I couldn't handle! You'll be punished for your heinous crimes!" ... Like that! That's definitely what is going to happen!
... Or have I already died? [ something akin to an "UWAAAAAH" goes here ] This couple may have found I wasn't good enough for them, like maybe they wanted someone who was good at math or smart o-o-or SMALL AND DAINTY!! [ clearly this makes perfect sense to her ] There could be other girls here like me! Dressed in pretty floral dresses, baking pies, giggling demurely behind their hands--! My heaven could definitely look like this! On the other hand, what if I'm stuck here forever and it's actually a nightmare!?
[ at last she gets to the phone, approaching it slowly as if it were the very answer to her fragile fate. she picks it up ] Alright! If a woman answers, I've definitely reached heaven. If it's a man, I'll repent for all my sins and give my life to the church to live in chaste, wholesome contemplation!
[ Yeah, see how well that works out for her. She puts the receiver up by her ear now ] H...... HELLO?
