Kill 1 - Video then Voice

[deadliest6]

[The face of a handsome boy comes onto the screen. His eyes are cold and his hair slicked back. For awhile he just stares at the screen, tilting his head like he might be curious but there are no signs of that emotion on his face nor a flicker in his eyes. There's a pause then the screen goes blank as he tries out a filter.]

[Rather than his face reappearing, his voice comes over the line.]

Mm. Where am I?

[ooc: Kazuo has just arrived and is hanging out by the fountain. Action is open to anyone. And anyone who would notice him playing with the filters is free to notice and even to notice the levels changing. Have fun!]

No. A student.

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

What do you study?

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

Whatever the teacher gave us. He's dead now.

[No emotional attachment what-so-ever.]

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

...I'm so sorry. [A little surprised by the way he says that, but still compassionate.]

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

He died trying to save us. Perhaps a noble cause.

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

Very noble I think. You were all in danger?

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

Put into a game to kill each other.

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

...That's...

That's awful. [Sounds horrified of the idea.]

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

Mm. [He sounds so choked up. Only...not at all.]

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

Are you all right? Were you hurt?

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

I was killed.

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

Oh...

I'm sorry. [She doesn't sound at all surprised to be talking to a dead person though.]

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

I lost. Another won.

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

I see.

[A little surprised he seems so calm about it. But she doesn't want to pry into his feelings. It's probably a difficult thing to open up about.]

There should be a section in the guide about city dead, but if you have any questions about what it means to be dead here I can help.

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

Icy skin, no heartbeat, no breath, no need for food or drink. Yet still walking, talking, and interacting as if alive.

[Yeah. He read and memorized the guide.]

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

Yes, that's how it works. It's really not so bad.

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

Mm.

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

I don't mean to make it sound like it isn't difficult sometimes either...

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

I do not see a difficulty.

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

No? Well, that's good then.

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

[Quiet for a moment.] Is there anything else I can help you with, Kazuo?

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

No.

[voice]

[deadly_legacy]

Please feel free to call me if there is something I can help with. Good luck getting settled in.

[voice]

[deadliest6.livejournal.com]

I will.
