[the recording turns on mid-sentence, hi luceti] ...Is this book for me? How kind, though I’d rather have a proper explanation as to what has occurred. [a sigh] Once again it seems I have lost track of my surroundings. Even after I promised to be on my best behavior.

[rustling as she straightens out her cotton dress]

If I recall, Hakuren taught me the geography of the empire a few weeks ago. [considering noise] Perhaps I am in the sixth district? I have always wanted to visit. If that is the case, then I will have to call on the House of Hausen for help, unless...unless the one who has brought me here appears. [dilemmmaaa] He will have to appear sometime if he wishes to keep me as a hostage. Though I may not be as valuable as he might think.

[they should have kidnapped general oak or something. a long pause and then, quietly]

I wonder if anyone here will know about the hawkzile race. I do wish to know how Teito fared...

[EDIT OOC: off to class!! will be back in two hours ;A;]

Er-- so are they animals or what?

'I suppose a hawk lizard would be a usef--

Oh, jeez, what kind of Haruhi-type thinking is this?!'

[voice]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

They're dragons. They're called Wendi Skyrunners, to be exact. Hawkzile is the term we give to the ones that we've tamed.

'I wasn't so far off, was I? That is just...'

Sounds delightfully dangerous.

[voice]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

They're rather gentle once they get used to you. [says the girl with a dragon sister.] So yes, I'd say that they're delightful.

[voice]

[menial]

It's the getting used to part that I'm worried about.

[voice]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

Well, they do say that life is not without its risks.

[voice]

[menial]

I have to say, if that's rationale B, I shudder to hear rationale C.

[voice]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

It's good to keep a positive attitude...when training hawkziles, I suppose!

[voice]

[menial]

Why? Do they eat those who demonstrate negative attitudes?

[voice]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

Oh no, nothing like that. They just respond better to encouragement. You can't possibly befriend them if you're too wary to approach them first.

[voice]

[menial]

...Fair enough. Some people are like that, too.

[voice]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

That's very true. [oh right - her manners!] My name is Ouka.

[voice]

[menial]

Ah. [He tells her his name.] But people tend to call me Kyon.

'And I think at this point I'd better stop complaining. It could be worse, and I just don't have the motivation to complain.'

[voice]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

It's nice to meet you. Have you been a resident here for a long time?

[voice]

[menial]

Only a few days.

'Long enough, though. With no sign of any way out.'

[voice]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

What do you think of Luceti so far? [have you been kidnapped and probed experimented on]

[voice]

[menial]

[Very dryly:]

Seems like a great place for a weekend. I'm thinking of acquiring a summer cottage paid for by doing some clinical trials.

[voice]

[keepsthelight.livejournal.com]

[she smiles a little at that, a touch subdued.] As long as it's only for the weekend.

[voice]

[menial]

Yeah, it's the electricity that's the real deal-breaker.
