[ Action | 503 Ricardo Street ]

[When Japan first wakes up to realize he's in clothes that are not his, a room he doesn't recognize and surrounded by things he may not have seen prior to now... Well, it'll be quite loud. In fact, first thing, he falls right out of bed (without stopping to even notice if anyone happened to be beside him) with a loud "Uwah!" and scrambles around trying to figure out where he is.

He's not really making much sense at first, stuttering things about opening his borders and America being too demanding and forceful, but feel free to greet him! Or stand there long enough and you'll catch his attention. You can also catch him after he's calmed down a bit! He'll be sitting somewhere and just trying to think it all through.]

[ Phone ]

[It's after the initial shock that he's able to pick up the phone (albeit a bit shakily) and speak. His voice comes across as hesitant and... well. Worried. At the same time there's a certain sort of determination to present himself well. To... whoever would be receiving this. He wasn't quite sure yet.]

H-hello? Ah, surely this must be a mistake of some sort... Is this a city of America-san's? [Westernization wasn't supposed to happen overnight. There's a pause as he tries to work this out in his mind.]

I-I did not agree to this, so if anyone is hearing me, please explain this immediately! Ah... that is... [It seems like he's struggling to come up with a way to fix his wording, so he sort of fumbles. It's a few moments before he properly hangs up.]

[And of course action can be open to anyone who wants to stop by or pass by etc!]

Don't worry about it, everything's going to be okay! I'm one of your allies, after all!

[A-an ally?! Oh no, shouldn't he at least be remembering the voices of his own allies?!

Wait.]

Ally? Ah... Is that so... [A pause.] I admit this situation is quite confusing. An explanation or something similar would be much appreciated.

Right! I'm pretty sure we signed a treaty or something last time you were here. There was at least a verbal agreement! I definitely remember that much. But anyway, the short version is we're in Mayfield, we're trapped here, they kill us sometimes but it's okay because we get better, and that's pretty much all the important stuff.

P-please do not gloss over something like death so easily! [He's so overwhelmed!]

Trapped...? "Last time?" I do not recall ever visiting this place in the past...

It's okay, people leave and come back sometimes and forget about being here before. But you definitely were. You were married to Taiwan for a while.

S-surely there is a misunderstanding... Taiwan-san is far too young for such things. [China would kill him and why would he, what, no...]

But she's a nation! She's like hundreds of years old! That's definitely old enough to get married! Plus, Mayfield marriages aren't really real anyway.

[He's imagining little baby Taiwan pretending to get married. It's... adorable, but to say that she was married to him just makes that image horrible. He's going to brush it off so he doesn't have to view that in his mind any longer.]

Mayfield marriages? How is a marriage not real?

Because the town just puts you in the same house as someone else and then says you're a family, even if you're not.

So we are assigned such things... [He was definitely going to look around some more later, but with how he just woke up? How could he ignore it?]

It seems strange. I do not understand the point.

There pretty much isn't one. They just like messing with us.

How cruel... I suppose I should ask, who are "they?"

The people in charge of the town. The Mayor and Lucy Smith and a bunch of other jerks.

This entire town is against those of us here? Ah, forgive me if I am asking too many questions, but how many are in this same situation as us?

I dunno. Maybe a couple hundred or so?

So many?!

Yeah, you kinda lose track after a while.

Hah... This is becoming quite troubling. [Well it already was but still]

But don't worry, I'll help you! Like I said, that's what allies are for!

...Such a kind offer for a person so undeserving... Ah, thank you.

My sincerest apologies, but I do not even recall your name...

My name? Hu hu hu~

[DRAMATIC PAUSE]

It's Squid Girl! Messenger of the sea!

[She's hoping the awesome pose she's doing is somehow transmittable over the phone on some unconscious level of understanding.]

[If the long pause is any indication... It kind of did transmit.

He can only imagine that voice was accompanied by a dramatic gesture at least.]

S-squid girl-san, then?

San, sama, whatever you want.

[ANOTHER PAUSE there are pauses everywhere.

And then he will make it quite clear, even in changing the subject, what he thinks of that sama business.]

What makes Squid Girl-san a messenger of the sea?

Because I came from the sea to deliver a message to all of humankind, on behalf of the creatures of the ocean!
