1st: Action

[ Are you ready for some house intrusion, Luceti?

Murphy, having no idea what's going on, ends up doing just that. He doesn't get the same feel as that place, but this wasn't where he wanted to be and he has no idea how he arrived here. Pain isn't really an issue for him, as far as the wings go, after all the injuries he's sustained and pushed through. Actually, he still looks pretty messed up, but that's something he'll deal with later, too.

First, getting some different clothes. Then, getting the hell out of here. That's his priority list.

But, the clothes part leads to the break ins. He's not looking for trouble, but this is better than sporting the orange prison jumpsuit he left just on the outskirts of the village. Though, this means a half naked 30-something rummaging through apartments and houses.

Feel free to confront him or stop him to explain the situation or maybe offer some first aid. Be wary, he's a bit easy to startle, at the moment. ]

[This is new. Firo's coming out of his room when he spots someone who doesn't belong in the house.]

Hey. You need somethin', pal?

[His voice is hostile and his hand is hovering near his jacket pocket, ready to draw his knife. For once he's glad Seto isn't home; this guy could be dangerous.]

[ He stops and holds up his hands, trying to be non-threatening. He's not particularly threatened by simple humans anymore, and that troubles him... but who could blame him, if they knew what he'd been dealing with? ]

Listen. Calm down. I'll leave.

[As far as burglars go, this guy seems pretty calm. There's the possibility that it's just an act, so even as he relaxes slightly Firo stays on guard. He lowers his hand and tilts his head to one side.]

Wanna tell me why you were here in the first place?

[Considering the oddness that goes on in Luceti, this guy could actually have a reason.]

I'm just trying to get some clothes and get out of this village. That's all. I don't know what's happening or how I got here or these... things on my back, but I'm... I don't want any trouble. I just want to leave.

..Oh.

[Firo sighs and scratches his head. He's relieved to have an explanation for this guy being in the house, but explaining Luceti isn't too enjoyable. Where to even begin?]

I guess I could help ya with the clothes, but... thing is, you can't really get outta here.

[At least there are no screaming monsters?]

[ His chest immediately feels tight. No, that is not what he wants to hear. He doesn't mean for it to happen, but his tone takes a sudden edge. ]

What do you mean?

[ He doesn't want to hear this. Fucking hell, he does not want this again. ]

These scientist guys called the Malnosso brought us here. People leave and all, but it's random. There's this huge barrier all over the whole place.

[He sighs.]

Believe me, people have tried to get out.

Scientists? [ That one is new. His brow furrows and his frown sets itself steadily onto his face.

Once again, plans have gone awry. ]

And what the hell do they want with us?

Yeah.

[Firo wishes he had a specific answer to Murphy's last question, for the sake of both of them.]

That we don't know. Sometimes they'll drag people away to do experiments on 'em, but I'm not really sure what it is they're lookin' at.

Experiments? What kind of experiments?

[ A little panic here. ]

Like I said, we don't really know. Sometimes when you come back you'll be different for a bit. Like, if you've got some sorta weird ability or whatever it might be gone completely.

[He shrugs.]

Wish I knew more.

I guess I'm still fucked over.

Yeah, we all are. There's a lotta time where it's just plain dull, but then you get sent out on a draft or whatever and you wish it was boring again.
