[The residents of 1246 Williams Road, if they are home, may hear a thud as a very startled someone falls out of the bed that is most definitely not his. After a moment wasted sprawled on the floor and gaping at his surroundings, Firo dashes out of the bedroom to find roam the house and search for his captor(s).]  

Hey! What's goin' on here?!

[He moves through the house throwing open doors willynilly.]  
 

[Action]

[Firo's wandering Mayfield, alternating between a frantic trot and a dumbfounded stroll as he tries to get his bearings. Numerous times he attempts to confront a drone for more information, but quickly leaves each one after a frustrated and confusing conversation. After one such talk, he stomps away from a cheery neighbor and imploringly asks the heavens: ]

Is there anybody who makes sense here?

[Growing steadily angrier, he stalks about the town, not noticing that he's walking in circles. 

Point that out to him? Point and laugh?

And because finding yourself in a strange place eliminates any need for manners, you also may find him peering in the ground floor windows of various homes to try and find out just what in the world this place is.]

"Not exactly" as in..? Did you die?

[justdumbluck.livejournal.com]

A giant milkman. In a robot.

[He sighs. It's difficult to tell if this is Isaac being Isaac, or if this place is really that strange.]

So, uh, what is this place?

[pseudoll.livejournal.com]

No. There was an event recently in which many people were assigned to kill another person in this town. Many followed it, and many died. However, they are all alive now.

[justdumbluck.livejournal.com]

That's crazy! Why would anybody want that?

[pseudoll.livejournal.com]

I don't know. It seemed foolish.

[justdumbluck.livejournal.com]

Sure sounds like it. Does stuff like that happen often here?

[pseudoll.livejournal.com]

[She nods.] That's what I've been informed of.

[justdumbluck.livejournal.com]

Geez... What a nut house.

Thanks for fillin' me in, though, miss..? What's your name?

[pseudoll.livejournal.com]

My name is Yin. It's nice to meet you.

[justdumbluck.livejournal.com]

I'm Firo Prochainezo. Nice ta' meet you, too.

[pseudoll.livejournal.com]

[She nods.] Are there any further questions?

[justdumbluck.livejournal.com]

No, I don't think so. Unless there's more crazy stuff about this place that's important ta' know?

[pseudoll.livejournal.com]

Not that I'm aware of.

[Isaac nods enthusiastically]

It's a very strange town! It seems to be nowhere, you could walk for hours here and never see another town! In fact, you'd only see this one!

People are taken from all different worlds and placed into "happy families." ... and we live about our normal lives... I guess...There's a lot of creepy weird people here! It's almost like some of them have no soul at all! I'll try to have friendly conversations with them and they just blow me off! How terribly rude of them!

Though this town is anything but normal! They ask us to do weird things, like kill each other! Thankfully I got sick when that thing was going around, I don't think I could ever kill anyone.... Except if they hurt Miria, then I'd give them a good ol 1-2 punch! 100 flying fists, all heading towards the ruffian!

[He begins to imitate a boxer. Rather crudely, at that]

[justdumbluck.livejournal.com]

Guess that's it, then. Thanks, Yin.

[justdumbluck.livejournal.com]

Only this one town..? We can't get out?

[The next bout of information gives him a nasty shock]

Kill each other? What do ya mean-?

[But then he decides he probably won't get much coherent information out of Isaac and decides to quit while he's ahead.]

So... how's Miria? ...Why isn't she with you?

[pseudoll.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, Firo.
