[nobleminded]

[A very annoyed teenager is somewhere in Caer Scima. Over his right shoulder rests a sheath for a light blade, possibly a rapier. The handle isn't within view, but from the way it sits the sword is likely in there.]

These little Ainsel creeps or whatever they call themselves have been running amok for days! I don't think the leaders here have made much effort, if any, to do something about them, though! Is it this bad on both sides?! For claiming we're their guests or soldiers, they're certainly not treating us very well! I-

[Just then, a small pair of glowing red hands pop up from behind his shoulder and latch on to the sheath. Elliot nearly loses his balance before turning his head enraged.]

DON'T TOUCH THAT YOU LITTLE-!

[The locket goes dark, but from the way it was moving at the end it can be assumed that he ended the feed and let go of it to fight off the latest infected imp.]

[ Oscar almost scrolled right past this new fantastical message from another locket when he stopped.



and stared.


AND THEN FLIPPED THE GD LOCKET AT THE WALL! ]

I doubt the Ainsel are bothering them.

[ A regular imp is clinging to her back; over her shoulder, it nods frantically. ]

And I think they probably want us to prove ourselves against them.

[It's been over a week, and though Gilbert is no closer to finding a way out, he's at least learned a thing or two about how this world works. People from all different places and times converging on the other side of their own personal Abyss. Just what connects them all, he has no clue, and the only answer he's received so far is "because magic", which isn't an answer at all when there are no solutions to reversing it. Ever since the moment he'd arrived, all he's been able to think about is getting back to where he's still needed.

Elliot's voice is the first thing that has properly grounded him to this world since he arrived. It also reminds him of the despair that he's held quietly in his heart since his little brother had died, letting it eat away at him in the same way that everything else always has.

People spanning times and worlds or not, this is still someone whom he'd never expected to see or hear again, and it takes him a few tries before he's able to turn the damned locket on and answer him.]

Elliot...?

[erythristic]

Are you finding them too much trouble to deal with?

[ ACTUAL LAUGHTER COMING FROM ALICE'S END.

She couldn't care less about her locket, but if the network allows her to watch interesting things like this... she can live with that. ]

Did you lose?

[ Well, well... So Oscar Vessalius is here, as well as-- Gilbert. (Alice is one that he'd been aware of, although she apparently couldn't say the same of him.)

Vincent isn't quite ready to face his older brother just yet, so he's certain to make his response as private as he may. ]

You seem to be having some trouble. Would you care for some help?

[ Not that he's jumping up to do it or anything. From the looks of it, he must be lounging around somewhere inside the castle. ]
