first breath ✧ action
[There's a pale, shirtless figure walking through the woods just outside town. His footsteps are silent, and the book he holds in one hand remains unopened. The only article of clothing he found at the scene when he awoke was his hat, which he's returned to its rightful place on his head. He'd be normal looking if not for the face-like growths covering the upper portion of his body.
Despite his attempts to go unnoticed, Isamu's presence is announced by the occasional bit of wildlife fleeing from his presence.
At one point he stops and glances around apprehensively.] ...Naoki?
[If you're not Naoki Kashima, he will have very little interest in you. Feel free to attempt conversation anyway, however.]

[Action]
Yeah, come in.
[Action]
You're not the only one that lives here.
[Action]
…Oh yeah. I’ve got a roommate.
[Action]
[Action]
[Action]
Something to...? Ah... [He hasn't eaten since arriving in the vortex world, so the thought of food hadn't even entered his mind given everything else he was trying to take in. He doesn't even know if he's hungry.]
[Action]
[Action]
Even if Naoki doesn't remember, that doesn't mean he can't still take advantage of him.]
[Action]
[Unbothered, Naoki disappears into another room, and not too long later—after the sound of clinking and sizzling—returns with a dish of curry rice. He plops down on a chair by the sofa, holding it out to him with a spoon.]
[Action]
[Action]
When you’re done, I’ll tell you the rest of the stuff about this place.
[Action]
[Action]
Well, where to start. Okay, the journals. [He brandishes his own.] You can communicate through them, by talking or writing. Everyone has one in this place. They’re good for keeping track of things, and you can filter things to yourself, or to specific people, by writing variations of symbols before you make an entry.
[Action]
Symbols he could do. He didn't know what point there was in talking with anyone else here, but at least he'd be able to get a hold of Naoki whenever he needed.]
[Action]
Next--the Malnosso. They're a bunch of crazy scientists or something who've got us trapped to perform experiments on us. They've got a big barrier around this whole place to keep us from breaking out. Sometimes the experiments are meant to affect the whole village, sometimes they kidnap people individually. There's also a power cap. I'm about half as strong here as I am back home.
[Action]
What was the point of it all, then?]
Have you at least been working on finding a way back?
[Action]
[Action]
[Action]
[Action]
...should be... doing something else.
[Action]
[Action] ...let's ignore how all over the place my tenses were there
Just the change in environment... I think.
[Action] |D I'm off to bed now, talk to you tomorrow o/
Definitely not "nothing"... It's a lot to happen in one day, isn't it? Maybe resting for a while would be good.
[Action] Night!
Yeah. Maybe. [He's not quite pushy enough to try taking a bed (mostly since that would require moving again) so he tries to make himself comfortable on the sofa. The wings are a nuisance, and he ends up on his side.]
We're finding a way out of here, though.
[Action]
Naoki watches him for a couple of moments and nods. He settles a little in the chair he’s sitting in.]
Mm, right.
