Arrival~ [Video] Or ~ [Action for those in Dissimulo]

[wandthief]

[A close up of a pair of clear blue-grey eyes can be seen as the camera clicks on. At first Gellert doesn't realise that the video is running as he's not used to such a modern device. He can be heard speaking to himself and can be seen properly after a moment when he pulls the communicator back.]

[In German]

What is this...

This is very peculiar indeed... Some kind of Muggle communications device, perhaps?

Can anyone hear me? If you can then maybe you are the ones who brought me here and I demand you return me at once! I do not know what kind of game you are playing but when I find you, you will certainly know you are dealing with no ordinary wizard.

..... Hello?

[He taps on the screen then laughs - the sound strangely bright given the circumstances.]

I feel like I am talking to myself...

[He looks up and around himself. Behind him the Dissimulo church can be seen and probably some Christmas decorations too. His eyes turn to the screen again.]

Hello?

[In English.]

Hello? Is anybody hearing this?

Oh you're a wizard, are you?

[Disblief: Prussia has it.]

voice; German

[wandthief.livejournal.com]

Yes, of course.

Who are you?

voice; German

[aladyknight.livejournal.com]

Prussia.

And you?

[ Voice ; English ]

[verdantventure.livejournal.com]

Ah--Yes! Yes, I can hear you!

[ Voice ; English ]

[wandthief.livejournal.com]

How many of you are there?

[video; english]

[andifell.livejournal.com]

Yes. I can hear you.

[video; english]

[wandthief.livejournal.com]

[Gellert eyes the person who appears. He's used to moving photographs but not exactly like this.]

Can you also see me?

[video; english]

[andifell.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[Not a man for many words.]

[ A beat] You're new.

[Video] I feel I should apologize for this...

[whosurfavnowma.livejournal.com]

Oh, a new fish on the current. Cool your fins small fry. Try speaking a language less... guttural. Humans...

[And an eye roll here.]

So! What are your questions?

[Video] [English] <3

[wandthief.livejournal.com]

[He frowns.]

Why have I been brought here? For a start.

[Video] [English] XD <3

[whosurfavnowma.livejournal.com]

You'll have to ask the little krill-nappers that. They're not much on sharing secrets.

Next?

[A voice with a heavy Chinese accent comes up, along with a short-haired figure dressed in a green sweater that has red Christmas balls on it.]

I am hearing you.

[He speaks in English now; his own accent very slight.]

How many people are here in this machine?

[gochuugoku.livejournal.com]

I am not in this machine. I am simply in another place, aru. This is what we use to communicate with others on this planet.

A new arrival, I take?

audio; german

[wandthief.livejournal.com]

Are there many such new arrivals?

Re: audio; german

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

Weekly, if my guess is right. Daily, to an extent. The scientists are ever busy with bringing in new people.

[Audio]

[crackpotcrocker.livejournal.com]

Yes, I can hear you. And all your jibberist before.

[Audio]

[wandthief.livejournal.com]

It was not gibberish. I don't know how to speak that.

[Audio]

[crackpotcrocker.livejournal.com]

Well, sounded like gibberish to me. What the heck was that? You interrupted my game of solitaire.

[seyitloud.livejournal.com]

What in the world is a Muggle?

[ because this is clearly the most pressing matter at hand. ]

[wandthief.livejournal.com]

A non-magical human.

[Action]

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

[A small boy walks around the corner of the church in time to catch most of this. He makes a face. Another believer in such a ridiculous thing as magic? How annoying.]

This is not a game. You are in Dissimulo. Like the rest of us you have been kidnapped and stranded here.

...What is a muggle?

[Action] :D

[wandthief.livejournal.com]

[Gellert turns his head toward the voice.]

A Muggle is a human with no magical powers... Do you live around here?

[Action]

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

[Conan scowls irritably at that.]

That would depend on your definition of living. I said it already, didn't I? None of us are here by choice.

...A useless term, then.
