[ After three days, he finally decides to emerge from relative obscurity and make a public post. The first thing anyone who knows him will notice is that his hair is no longer black. In fact, it's-- ]

Brown.

Setting it in front of him, between himself and the compact, he concentrates and twirls his finger around in a loose spiral.

[ .. Seriously, levitation? He's not too surprised to see magic in a place like this, but it's already a little more interesting when it's someone who's not from this place to begin with is using it. ]

Didn't you ever think about using that against the people keeping us here?

I'm sorry that you feel that way.

[ But there's sadly not much he can do about it. ]

If I could do something to help, I would.

[deceases]

I'll just find my own way to do things. [ Because even if there's a lot of negative things Natsuno is, being defeatist certainly isn't one of them. ]

Even if I don't have magic or anything like that, I still won't give in to them that easily.
