二 [Video]

[The camera clicks on, and there's a very focused Japan before he realizes the light has flashed on and bows his head a little. He's sitting in his room, hands now on his lap politely.]

Um, is this working? It seems to be...

Hello, everyone. Oh, um, I am the country of Japan, for those who have not met me. ..I hope I am not troubling anyone.. but it seems that failure to use these devices results in... rather unsettling shocks. That, and.. I wanted to properly learn how to use this device. It's so strange... so small, how can it do all of these things...

If you do not consider it a waste of time, perhaps those of you that have been here longer than I could answer a few questions?

Um, I suppose simple conversation is welcomed as well, if anyone is interested in that. It would at least... provide practice for using this device, as well as company.

Thank you all for your time..!

[Another little bow, and he ends the feed.]

It's no fault of yours; if it is, I suggest you start running.

[brbmodernizing]

No! ..I can assure you I had nothing to do with it.

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

It could be an excellent disguise if what your claiming wasn't true.

[brbmodernizing]

Disguise?...

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

Some hypothesize that our captors are hiding among us.

[brbmodernizing]

That's...

Well, it is possible, I suppose. But to think that way will only cause unnecessary tensions.

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

Discedo is built on tension. If you've been here long, you'd know it's just a matter of time before it snaps and the whole city is sent to chaotic ruin.

[brbmodernizing]

You think so?...

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

How long have you been here?

[brbmodernizing]

Only a few days.

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

Then you've barely skimmed the horror which is Discedo.

I'd wish you luck, but it would probably end up getting you killed.

[brbmodernizing]

........

A-ah... well.... I.. appreciate your concern, in any case. [/seppuku]

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

It's only a matter of time and you'll understand. The city has been docile for some months....

[brbmodernizing]

..I have withstood thousands of years of wars and turmoil. I will continue to hope that as a Japanese man, I can withstand my time in this city, as well.

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

Pardon; you said thousands, correct?

[brbmodernizing]

Yes, that's right.

...

Oh, have I forgotten to introduce myself? Please forgive me. I am the country of Japan.

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

Ah; another one of you.

[brbmodernizing]

There are a lot of us here, aren't there?

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

I have met only a small portion of these nations, and those meetings were quite a while ago.

[brbmodernizing]

Ah, is that so? Who have you met?

[zetsubo-sensei.livejournal.com]

Poland? Korea? I may have heard the communicators echo who else is here, although I more of then not pay no heed to the chatter.

[brbmodernizing]

Ah. It may be for the best.
