Y-Yes!...well, not really, to be honest. I don't know where I am! One moment I was at home, trying to visit Agata Forest, and the next I ended up here. And all I have is this journal that I'm somehow talking- er, writing to you with....oh, dear.
[The next words scribbled are hurried and come out more as a quick scribble than the Captain's usual twirly writing. It seems he's a little distressed that you got pulled here, too.]
Are you all right? Is Abe with you? Where are you?
[...oh crap, he's not used to seeing handwriting like that. He gets handwriting that's about the same, though, as panic isn't the first thing in the straight-faced trooper's repertoire.]
I'm fine. Weird. Don't know where Abe went, hope he didn't turn up the way I did. Fuzzy, now, but... what a trip.
[As she trots along the beach, the little journal vibrates gently. What does that mean? the wolf wonders, and shifts into human form to find out. Perching on a boulder, she flipps the journal open.
Hey!
Someone wrote something!
She doesn't recognize the handwriting, but that doesn't mean anything; she hadn't seen anyone write much of anything in her time on Earth, save herself, Issun, Ishaku, and other Poncles.]
[he stares at the ink that just appeared on the paper in front of him. So the glowing wasn't just his imagination-- he shouldn't be so surprised, really! But...
It's only one word, but. The style of those characters...
[a weird day just got weirder and more complicated and more convoluted. He actually lets out a short sigh through his nose before taking to the pages again]
Something weird going on here. Is there sand? Check now - might change.
I'm by a sapling. Shinshuu, looks like. Let me know when you figure yourself, I'll pick you up.

I believe so. Nothing's tried to attack me yet. Has anything tried to attack you? I'm trying to find out if this place is dangerous.

Nothing's gone offensive. Prepared anyway, but.
Doesn't look dangerous.
...looks like a really quiet beach, actually.

What?
[he writes, right beneath, just to make sure]

Damn it damn it damn--]
Where are you?

...no. No, there's no doubt about it now. Except he's not sure whether to be relieved or not.
A few moments pass before he continues writing, slightly bigger this time but just as close to the characters above.]
I must've ended up on the wrong side of the coast.. Nothing big, I'll figure it out!
...are you on the other one?
