[She is quick to the stairs when she hears that. She doubted that the programed tools would be so clumsy so she can only assume this girl is not one of them.]
[ When Komachi hears Eiki's voice crackle over the radio, she thinks it to be a simple daydream at first. But it persists, and persists, that measured tone, and that's just like her, isn't it...it sounds exactly like her. The shinigami has to face the truth, eventually. So she listens to her superior deliver her speech, an activity that she is well used to. Better get the explanation over with - at least she wasn't the guilty party this time. ]
[She didn't expect to hear Komachi's voice, but she's not surprised by it either.]
It would seem so, by any chance are you familiar with who "they" are? If it is at all possible I would like to clear up this matter as quickly as I can.
Um, er. It's...kind of not that simple. We're kidnapped. I swear I don't know why, or what happened, or anything.
We're in Mayfield. It's a false town and you can't get out of it. It's based on 1950s America, but weird stuff happens...a-and there's no death here, no afterlife.
[ A nervous laugh, though there's nothing amusing about the predicament. The whole thing sounds like a wild story some of the souls she'd ferry would tell her to pass the time occasionally. ]
[There's a long pause as Eiki considers this information. For the most part it just confirmed her suspicions, but that last bit....]
How can there be no death here? That is one of the most constant things of life. [There was a slight tremble to her voice, as the implications were just too much when you considered that small fact.] To be able to negate the process of life and death....
[No, it was uncomfortable to even think about. She needed something else to focus on.]
How long have you been here? I'm assuming you haven't just arrived.
Okay, this place is strange but a genius by the name of Dist put together something for new people who get kidnapped here. Just to help them catch up to speed.

AFU!
[With that, Afu trips and falls down the the stairs. This is an every day occurrence here.]

[She reaches out to offer a hand up, and then she realizes this girl is very familiar. As, she has already seen several pictures with her in them.]
You're the girl in the photographs!
