[and only the sound of a lighter's distinct click is heard.

the voice sounds tired and quite possibly carries the hint of a sullen tone.

smoke blows, faintly]

...what the hell.

[she hesitates to speak in order to take a drag, exhaling smoke as she speaks]

Y'know, that's the first time someone's said that to me in a real long...

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

[wait... where the hell did that voice come from? there was no one around... as far as she could tell!]

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

...who said that?!

[gardnr.livejournal.com]

Me? Obviously? My name's Guy. Are you a lady with breasts?

Wait, are you new here?

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

...what else would I be? I'm sure as hell not flat.

Apparently. This ain't where I'm supposed to be, that's for damn sure.

[gardnr.livejournal.com]

Yeah well, welcome to Paradisa, middle of Foo-foo-land. There's a kitchen and a really gay bar on the first floor, loads of assholes, and not a single stripper in the whole damn place. The journal talks and records your farts, and you can't go home.

Tada.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

...you've got to be shittin' me!

Still, sounds like the clubs I played at back home.

[shirtless]

That seems to be the slogan of this place.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

And the place being...

[shirtless]

They call it Paradisa, but it sure as hell isn't paradise.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

What is that, some kinda hotel or something?

Either way, I got somewhere to be.

[shirtless]

Close. It's a castle. But it might as well be a hotel from the number of residents it sucks in.

And we all had places to be, but I wouldn't count on keeping your plans for the foreseeable future. You're pretty much stuck here.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

[she blows more smoke, her eyes searching the room for any weird microphones or cameras or something out of place. if this was something brought on by Search, there was going to be hell to pay.]

What are you talking about? And where the hell is your voice coming from?

n-nana. my hero. <3

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

[since Jacob filled her in about the journal!]

Ah-

Are you all right?

nana loves her fangirls, sweetheart. <3

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

[well, at least the voices were seemingly helpful. they were, however, going to take a while to get used to.]

Yeah. [blows another cloud of smoke, ruffling her hair] But I'm not exactly thrilled over the idea of being stuck here.

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, I don't really think anyone is and it really is a lot to take in.

People come to the castle frequently, I'm sure you'll even find people from your world here. I'm here with three of my friends.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

You said it, sister. Got me some freak who says he's flying around, another telling me this castle chews us up and spits us out. I'd expect this bull if I did hard drugs, but other than my Black Stones and the occaisonal drink, I'm clean. This is one hell of a lucid dream, if that.

...my world, huh? [well, that kind of explains the guy flying into space ;;;]

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

I think you'll find there are a lot of people like that here. I don't think all of them fly, but I know a lot of them have unique abilities. But that doesn't mean there aren't regular people here, too.

[sympathetic!] I'm sorry, this is probably a lot to take in at once. Do you have any questions?

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

You mean I'm going to be surrounded by space aliens from different worlds? They kidnap up with this castle spaceship of theirs?

[she ruffles her hair again, her fingers and the signature Vivienne Westwood piece running through the black strands, which fall to her face. oh, the questions she had]

Got a guy telling me my friends aren't going to notice I'm gone. That means, what, time stops here or something?

[parlent.livejournal.com]

Hello! Welcome to Paradisa. ♥

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

Yo!

Is this one of those ghosts? Know where I can land a few more smokes?

[parlent.livejournal.com]

[laugh] No, Nodame isn't a ghost. Ghosts are creepy! Maybe you can ask the castle for some!

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

I can ask the castle for some more stones, but can't ask it to let me go home? _{Kind of a picky bastard...}

[parlent.livejournal.com]

It is picky! Everyone wants to go home unless they're dead there or something. But for now, you should just relax and ask for some cigarettes! Maybe some beer, too!
