Video 002 - Small feet in an unknown world

[waitsforbrother]

[The video feed activates showing a small boy,about the age of seven, sitting up in bed, looking around bewildered. Once his eyes confirms that nothing looks familiar, the young boy starts looking around the bed frantically. Searching under the sheets and checking under the bed. He whispers into the dark.]

Subaru. Subaru, where are you?

[He stops when he realizes that the person he is looking for is not here. He looks even more uneasy and panicked then before. He cautious steps out this strange bed and went ti the door. Opening it a crack and whispering out for Subaru. But no one answered.

He returns to the room, noticing the glow of the dream berry device not too far away. He warily walks over to the device, picking it up and examining. It seems even the young boy knows how to operate it, he looks directly into the camera.]

W-where is this place? Who brought me here? And what have you done with Subaru?

You sure Subaru is here?

[Ryuu tilts his head.]

Say, you look kind of familiar...

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

I-i don't know that's why I sent out that message.[Narrows eyes] You know me too?

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

If they don't show up on the Dreamberry contact list, that means they're not here. I don't see a Subaru on mine. Sorry...

[staaaaare] I think so! You're...that one guy, right? How'd you get so little?

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

That one guy? What do you mean?

[But more importantly, hadn't this guy said that Subaru wasn't here.]

...So he isn't here. Where is this place?

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

You forgot that, too? Well I guess you are small now. Come to think of it, you never told me your name. I'm Ryuu-ou!

[He offers his hand out.]

You're in Somarium now.

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

[Looking at the hand that was offered, but doesn't accept me. He still wasn't sure about Ryuu-ou.]

Kamui. That's my name. And what exactly is Somarium?

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

No? Guess it's too soon.

[He scratches the back of his head with that hand.]

It's a dream world!

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

A dreamworld? So I'm dreaming?

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

Yeah. But don't think waking up is going to get you back home. Your real body doesn't wake up that easy!

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

My real body? So I've been displaced from my body? [You're freaking him out, Ryuu-ou.] If I'm here. What is my body doing? Is it safe?

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah. They're taking really good care of it!

[ADDING FUEL TO THE FIRE, YOU'RE WELCOME.]

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

They?! who are you talking about?! Tell me right now!

[YOU BASTARD!]

[WHOA, KID. CALM YO' TITS.]

The staff, who else? Somebody has to watch your body while you sleep! -- Oh! They don't do anything weird to your body or anything like that.

Re: [Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

Staff? [ What was wrong with this place?] And how would I know if they mess with my body or not? No one is there to watch them?

[CALM YO MOUTH. IN OTHER WORDS,STOP SAYING CRAZINESS.]

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

They have cameras watching. I don't think they'd really try it when somebody is watching.

[Ryuu can't help it! And also he's starting to wonder about what Kamui said. It's not that it wasn't possible but he'd accepted others watching his body for so long so he didn't really question it.]

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

I don't like that. [Crosses arms] What kind of place separates you from your body? What right do they have to do that? They're suppose to ask for permission first!

And how can you accept that? How can you put so much trust in people you've never met or seen to take care of your body?

[Kamui is poking holes in your logic, Ryuu-ou.]

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

They do! I mean, they're supposed to. It's their job. You might not remember it but they definitely have to have your permission before they do that!

[He objects to this, you little brat.]

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

Why would I give someone permission to do that? What's the point of being separated from my body anyhow?

[Wake up and smell the coffee.]

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

This is a game! It's to keep your real body safe. Besides, you can't do things in the real world that you can in this world -- like becoming a fighter for hire! You can't do that kind of thing with your real body or you'd get hurt!

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

[Staring at you real hard, Ryuu-ou] So you play a game to avoid getting hurt? That sounds pretty cowardly.

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's not like that! This isn't coming out right, okay? It's because this world allows your body to do things that you can't do in the real world. Does that make sense?

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

It allows to do things you normally can't? [Crosses his arms over his chest.] Like fly?

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

Well, no... I don't think anybody can do that!

[Action]

[seishiromustdie.livejournal.com]

So this world only allows you to do certain things. But why couldn't you be a swordsman in your original world?

[Action]

[kairyuuha.livejournal.com]

I have other things I need to do! Like...school. Bleh!
