arcanarum

[Germany is a little bit careless when he turns on the communicator and almost automatically turns on the video function. So when he had been hiding behind audio feeds up to now, the dark red and glowing eyes he had gained not that long ago are now painfully obvious. Behind that eerie glow, the German looks pensive, however.]

We... Had a couple of arrivals, it seems. But what's more important right now: Who will follow that call and who will stay here?

It's a chance, yes. But she said she only has control for a little bit, meaning that they may very well regain control soon and resume where they were interrupted. I don't think it's a good idea to just leave unless those Rulers have actually been defeated for good. I'd hate leaving unfinished business behind. And there's not much reason to go back anymore either...

scotlandthebrave

[William is now in possession of a very large claymore. He's sharpening it slowly, the metal ringing as he draws the whetstone across it, and after a moment, he flicks his gaze towards the compact.

His lips press together, and he looks as if he really doesn't expect an affirmative answer to what he's about to ask.]

... Ah'm wonderin' if Ah'm gonnae regrit askin' thes, but diz anyain ken hoo tae use a bludy blade in thes place?

femininetomboy

It's strange... I've been here for quite a long time now. I think I'm really getting used to it. Even though it's kind of lonely, too.

[ Like almost always when she broadcasts, Madoka is sitting on her kitchen, notebooks next to her as well as a hot chocolate. She looks thoughtful, but not too sad. ]

Back at home, in my own world I mean, my friends used to be always around at my place. It was really exhausting, but never lonely. And until a while ago, there was G here and Spade and all the others... Most of them are gone now. It's become really quiet in this house.

[ She sighs and then seems to snap out of her nostalgia. She smiles apologetically. ]

Ah, forget about it. I'm not sure why I was just saying this. Of course it's more quiet, but that's just how it is, so no use dwelling on it an longer! I'm probably just feeling like this because of these personality changes...

[ Waving her hands dismissively she ends the transmission ]

gordianknots

[Waver frowns into the camera. This isn't the first time he's admitted ignorance in public, but doing so on a broadcast feed is a bit new. Still, better to swallow pride and serve the greater good than wallow in ignorance for the sake of ego]

A question occurs to me, prompted by someone else. I realize there's a bit of a communication overload with all the new people, but I'm hoping someone might have the answer.

Does anyone happen to know the actual motive of the Powers that Be and their reasons for dragging everyone here or if they've even dropped any hints? I can certainly buy randomness, but if there is a more specific reason, I think that'd be worth knowing.

unionjackass

--That explains the damn Guy Fawkes mask. What an utterly stupid prank-- [a sharp-tongued complaint can be heard before a pair of sharp, green eyes flashes through from this Englishman's end of the compact.

England is scowling unashamedly into the little device and despite looking barely in his mid-twenties, his entire bearing is reminiscent of--

--well--]

Now see here, I demand an explanation for this nonsense--

[--that of an old man.]

None of that tripe from the little introduction, thank you. [he gives a stout nod, and a smile, as if he'll be completely understood and assisted to his liking.] Spare the bits about magic as well! I think I'm well-learned in that area as is; don't really need my hand held, so to speak.

--Oh, and I expect you to be prompt and to the point! Suppose I ought to say it's--a pleasure to meet my ah... fellows here on this... whatever this place is. [with a casual, dismissive wave of his hand, he snaps the compact shut.]

[Now it's time for him to find his bearings--to explore a bit, speak with whoever else was here. All in all he isn't very unsettled. After all, he has no reason to be! People replacing figures from stories? Magic? Being whisked away to a plane in the spirit world?

Hah.

--Now, if only he could find clothes that weren't dramatically black--and some tea, of course--and after gathering more information, no doubt he'll eventually have this sorted in short order.]

eldestdaughter

[When the compact turns on it's safe to assume that it fell out of her pocket. What is shown is her back as she sweeps up the apartment common room. The whole place is empty even though it was once full of people.

Anyone who knows Sophie well will have noticed that she's been much quieter then she usually is. There hasn't been a lot of nagging or bossing or even just talking. She's fallen into her old rut of simply staying out of the way of everything. Even at the clothing shop she's turned more toward sensible and dowdy clothing. Her looks may have made her even more lovely then she once was, but her clothing is doing a very good job of counteracting that and making her look very plain.]

I should go to the market and get more tea. It's still getting colder. I'll have to look at the meat too.

[She turns to write down what she'd just said onto a list when she sees the compact. She doesn't seem very worried about it being on as she closes it.]

chokowaffle

[Being taken to a new place during Belgium's sleep was not was she had in mind. Waking up in a completely different bedroom than the one she slept in was not her idea of a vacation. At least the room did show how her home was set up with decorations and a lovely pink rose colored room. It took her a while to finally wake up enough to be aware of different little things around her; like say that note and the mirror and key listed in the note.]

Wait.... Replace Little Red Riding Hood? What's going on? What is this place?

[Obviously she noticed the name of this place, but that didn't help tell her how she got here and what was going on. She was familiar with Little Red Riding Hood, but she didn't understand what they meant with her "replacing" her. Realizing this, she realized her clothing had changed as well. She couldn't help but to cringe.]

.....A dress.... Yeah... no. Is there anything else for me to wear here?

[After looking for a few minutes, she found nothing else. Giving a deep sigh, she ignored it for now. She had to let it go if she was going to figure out more. Grabbing the mirror and key, she looked around the house. She noticed the living room next to her room as she messed with the mirror.]

Is anybody there? I need answers now.

[OOC: Feel free to correct me if I did something wrong ;-;]

pledged_to_me

[At first all that can be heard is a muffled cough. It takes a moment before a voice follows it, with a clear Irish accent coloring it.]

'Tis a right terrible thing to be doin', kidnappin' lasses. 'Tis even worse to be kidnappin' lasses and nay realizin' that said lass can be handin' them their arses for their troubles, aye 'tis. 'Tis bein' quite stupid, in fact.

Can anyone be tellin' me just what is goin' on and where and what 'xactly "Acanarum" is?

[There's a pause, followed by the sound of the compact falling and more coughing. When she speaks again, it's quiet, as though she thinks no one can hear her.]

Breathin' hurts...

puppyface

[A frantic, sweaty Scott appears on the screen, swaddled in blankets and shaking. He drops the communicator on the floor once, misfiring the first video.] [A few minutes later another video comes on the screen, this time a little out of focus because Scott can't seem to hold the damn thing still. He's breathing erratically, his hands shaking as he pleads with the camera.]

H-hello?! Mom- Stiles, anyone?! I need help.

[He rubs at one eye, trying to focus past the tears.]

I can't breathe- I don't know where I am, this isn't a dream- help!

sanskrit

[India is rather composed even though he's found himself in such a place. No need to look scary or intimidate anyone he is possibly speaking too, right?]

Namaste, everyone who can see and hear this. This technology is something new to me, but is indeed quite ingenious and useful. [he pauses briefly, giving a smile.] I'd like to ask people for more information about this place and the circumstances as why I was brought here. While a vacation is always good for the mind and soul, one taken so abruptly is not.

ACTION:
[India is sitting cross-legged on a rock located on the beach. He's wearing clothing like this, but doesn't have the bow and arrow. He looks like's he's enjoying the view, or maybe he's thinking about something. Feel free to interrupt him.]

hypercompetent

Alright. This kidnapping thing? Really getting old.

[The video feed cuts on to reveal Stiles sitting in a chair, drumming his fingers against the edge of the table enough that you can faintly hear the noise in the background; he's nodding his head, teeth gritted together. There's obvious irritation on his face, but despite the whole being-kidnapped-to-a-foreign-island-thing, he doesn't look too scared. ]

I think I preferred Grandpa Crazypants to this. At least he just socked me in the face a time or six instead of putting me in a dress and calling me little red riding hood. Which, by the way, is probably the worst joke in the history of all jokes and you should be ashamed of yourself, and that's not even counting the fact that this is Michael Jackson levels of absolutely freakin' creepy.

[Okay, now he looks a little more freaked out, and he flails his arms at the screen, unable to contain the amount of What The Actual Hell in his words. Stiles looks away and back again, bouncing his knees. ]

There's supposed to be a full moon tonight in, you know, Beacon Hills, and believe me, as glad as I am to be in mortal danger from yet another thing instead of the one I actually know how to handle, I need to get home. So let's get the pain, agony, et cetera out of the way, I'm not telling you and your awful sense of humor anything, especially when I'm still sitting here sans pants.

[He stares at the feed for a moment longer--there's some unintelligible grumbling before he shuts it off.]

scotlandthebrave

[When the video turns on, William looks nothing short of awful. Every pale freckle on his face is standing out against how white his skin is, and he seems to be having trouble focusing.

No one's really explained the changes that the Rulers can inflict to him, and when the first he was so kindly 'blessed' with involved him spending an entire day gasping in agony through the pain ripping into his skull he had seriously begun to think that he was dying. Now that it's over, he... doesn't feel quite right. His thoughts are everywhere, and for a moment it looks as if he might have forgotten he turned the video on before his attention abruptly falls on it]

Whit.. the feck.. was tha'.

[[ooc: Baby's first physical change! Growing an extra brain lobe is hard. And painful.]]

minhasaquarelas

Aaagh... não posso falar inglês agora, meus amigos. É como esqueci...

Oi, oi, oi, alguém pode me ouvir?

[This is how he's been walking around the streets today, trying to communicate with no luck. Where the hell has Miguel gone? And for all that, what about França? França would understand him!

Leaning against a wall and rubbing his face, he lets out an exasperated sigh.]

Bem... bem. Agora não e um tempo pra desistir! Só preciso que pegar um turkey e encontrar meus amigos...

awesomemich

[he had been looking all by his lonesome for England, but, of course, he couldn't be found]

Hey, anyone happen to see England? [he frowns that wasn't English or German coming out of his mouth]

What the hell?! Don't you Rulers have anything better to do than screw with me?! I know I'm awesome, but I want to relax! [yep, Pru is pissed and for a moment, he has forgotten all about the original reason he posted]

That unawesome trick with the believable memories right after giving me feathers in my groin! Then you change my language skills after taking England from me?! England, what have you bastards done to him?! [he doesn't really expect this message to be viewed or understood by the Rulers, but he needed to vent]

Current Mood: angry

magicalrealist

Based on what I've noticed about the current issues going on here, I believe the Rulers have cast some sort of language spell over everyone. There's only so much I can do to counteract it without my magic and limited reading material, but maybe there are workarounds for this. Some don't seem to be affect, myself included, and since the spell affects vocal conversation, does the same hold true for written conversation? I'd like to help out as much as I can, but I'm not exactly sure how much I can do.

kartoffelstampfer

[So guess who's tired of pondering around, knitting and not really making any progress by now? Yes, this very nation here. But he remembered something...]

So... Nuclear weapons. What can you tell me about them? Just how powerful are they?

whiterice

[ Japan had taken his transition to this foreign island rather well, all told. Granted, waking up in a strange bed in an eerily empty house with no clothes to speak of had elicited a moment of panic from the normally apathetic nation, but after managing to wrap his bed sheet around him in some semblance of a toga, he had promptly gone and dusted the entire house down to work off his embarrassment.

It's with a much calmer state of mind that he now reads the note on his table then opens the pink compact. Of course, only his face is visible at the moment. ]

Hello?

causa

So...

[ Arriving at Arcanarum did a number of things to Miguel's stress levels, and if there's one thing Perú does to deal with his stress, it's cook. So upon discovering the ability to wish for things, he immediately began to stock up his kitchen, and started to do just that. The feed cuts on to reveal his kitchen, decorated with a bright string of red chili peppers and a few dishes already displayed in their colorful glory. He squats down a little to make sure you can see his face in the communicator, and smiles; he's ditched the regalia in favor of a brightly colored poncho and chullo, courtesy of his father.]

It's really freezing outside, isn't it? Maybe I'm just not used to it, but I feel like I'm going to lose a finger if I step outside, pe! I saw a couple of people were starting to get sick and I thought I'd do some cooking to get distracted and I...kinda overcooked, jeje. Is anybody hungry? Trust me when I say I could feed a crowd!

scotlandthebrave

[Cold? What cold? In the early morning William can be found walking through the various districts, wearing a t-shirt and a pair of jeans. He's abandoned the clothes of his assigned denizen save for the All Stars.. which he rather likes. He's not sticking to the paths, leaving trails of footprints in the frost icing the grass as he cuts across it, and, as ever, there's a cigarette hanging from his lips. For now, however, it's unlit.

He pauses in the middle of the shopping district, exhaling a breath in a light, white cloud in front of him]

Whit a load ay bludy bollocks thes is.

[The words are grumbled out, a more or less fitting summary of his feelings at the present moment. Unbeknownst to him, the damn compact in his back pocket also broadcasts it to anyone else on the island who might happen to be listening]

(( ooc:: Please don't be shy to tag I would really love more CR in this game ;w; If his accent is too much let me know and I can tone it down for you <3 ))

sparksfire

[ The feed turns on to Katniss, who's hair is down and she's in entirely different attire. She looks like she isn't happy about it either. ]

What's been going on, I feel like I've been asleep for ages?

[ She looks at the letter she has now and just shakes her head, muttering to herself before the feed ends ]

Atleast I'm not a prince anymore.
