1st Contract | [Video]

[fusedstars]

[Hei is looking normal for the most  part, thank god. Any more experiments, and he just might have switched his urge to kill, a feat so very few achieved; this place definitely got it in less than a month. But that was to be expected. Hell, even if the experiments to him were gone, his face eyes looked tired. Granted, they always looked tired, if not a bit sad.]

I'm sure everyone has received a gift of sorts from those people. Disregarding that however, there are questions I wished answered regarding those I know.

In order to help avoid confusion regarding this subject, and to help explain my situation, I have been taken away from a facility in space, controlled by the Consortium. After a victory against them, I have found myself trapped within those pods for experimentation, where I ended up meeting most of you with that man called Jason.

[And yes, Hei wishes to join that punching him club.]

Within that facility, we were all lead to believe that we were taken from our worlds. In reality however, we were only clones of the original being. I am...one of those. Thus far, only one other person from the facility has been made known to me, and that was Yusuke Urameshi. If anyone has any questions regarding this matter, or knows of anyone else from it, contact me immediately.

Also, if others can inform me more about this tower, it would be appreciated. As it stands, I understand the basics of it. [Though is highly skeptical of the world being destroyed.]

And...if anyone--[He shakes his head, frowning. He was doubtful she was here, but if she was...He looked back at the camera again.]

Lucy, if you are here, please contact me immediately.

That is all.

...Clones...?

_{[Her heart skips a beat, but in the end - it sounds like it was another world where it was like that, right? It can't be the same story here. It can't.]}

Was that place a lot like this one? That consortee-- cons.. whatever, do you think they could be connected with the admins here?

..There's no way, right?

[It occurred to him that the facility and this place had been connected. It seemed expected, but without proof, it was all based on theory.]

Similar, though the scientists never revealed their names or faces, as far as I can remember. After examining the tower, this place has more freedom than the Consortium offered, save for a few trips to new locations that were no doubt mere simulations or something along those lines.

Experiments were done on a weekly basis, though none were anything quite like what most of us experienced in the pods.

[beknightedheroine]

...

I'm sorry you had to go from one place like that to here. This was the worst I think we've ever got it, so, uh.

_{[Though this isn't video, she awkwardly rubs at her upper arm, while trying to place the right words.]}

I don't think we'll get a repeat performance.

[fusedstars]

I'm used to it, though not in that particular way.

[He wanted to say it didn't bother him, but that was not true. Everything about this place bothered him greatly.]

How are you holding up?

[beknightedheroine]

Me?

_{[Sayaka is feeling a bit tattered at the edges, after Lelouch going off his head and Lina trying to doomsplode the entire tower and failing to miserable effect and everything else - but a little tattered at the edges is nothing, with perspective.]}

I'll manage. I think I've got a ways to go before I have to worry.

_{[..of course, that wording probably makes very little sense - but Sayaka's used to measuring her mental state by her soul gem than by how she actively feels, nowadays.]}

I'm mostly worried about someone else.

[fusedstars]

I can sympathize with that.

[Even if her words had not made much sense before, the latter made everything clear. And Hei had felt the same way, wondering where his own allies had been, where she was.He was just too stubborn to admit the answer.]

[beknightedheroine]

Oh--!

_{[He'd said somebody's name, in his initial post. It takes a moment to recall the name right - it'd be rather poor of her to mispronounce his missing pal's name.]}

You said 'Lucy,' right? I'll keep a look out, too.

[fusedstars]

Thank you. [It wasn't much, but the thought was nice. He doubted that she was here, but maybe it was for the best, not that his mind would allow for such a thought right now.]

What is your name?

[beknightedheroine]

_{[She can certainly try.]}

It's Sayaka, Sayaka Miki.

[fusedstars]

I see. My name is Hei.

[ofdewandglass]

We were in the same pod...are you...not okay. No one can be okay after that. But are you going to be...some semblance of okay?

[fusedstars]

I'll be fine. I apologize for being unable to stop that...music. [You can tell it was even hard to say that word, considering those songs shouldn't even be labeled as music.]

[ofdewandglass]

Don't apologize for that. I - I couldn't stop it, either. None of us could, as hard as we all tried.

[fusedstars]

At any rate, it's over. We can at least try and move past this.

[ofdewandglass]

Thank goodness for that. Moving on isn't gonna be easy, but they say that anything worth doing isn't easy...

[fusedstars]

At least some people understand that. Even with things such as these, we cannot afford to break under pressure.
